Renovations
Joseph glanced at Molly, who had plunged into the pile of candy. Then, he turned around, walked outside of the villa, and picked up the call.
Lucille, who was in the faraway Talford Village, was stunned when she heard the bustling noise. She asked, “Joseph? Why is it so noisy over there?”
Joseph did not stutter, nor did he hesitate. He calmly answered, “Someone seems to be doing renovations.”
What kind of renovations?
It sounded like a wall was getting torn down!
Lucille was a little surprised, but she didn’t ask any more questions. She directly stated, “Joseph, there’s something I need your help with. I want to buy this piece of land. The sooner, the better. Can you help me get the contract? Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it myself.”
Before calling him, she had specially gone to ask Madam Grant about it. The land that Talford Village was located in had been owned for many years, and it was still in the hands of the original owners. However, the people who bought the land never had any intentions of developing it, so the villagers
continued to live there and did not move.
Since Bernard wanted to buy that piece of land, he had to follow Shein City’s regulations. He first needed to discuss the contract with the villagers, and then sign a land purchase
Rendition
contract with the owner of the land.
Bernard seemed to have full control of the situation at hand.
She wanted to buy that land before Bernard did, so asking Joseph for help was the simplest, most direct way.
In order to prevent Joseph from being suspicious of her buying a piece of land, Lucille had come up with many excuses. However, she did not expect Joseph to simply reply with, “Okay.
He agreed just like that?
Lucille could not help but be stunned.
“Actually…” As Joseph spoke, his eyes sparkled. He raised his eyebrows and instead decided to say, “Tomorrow, I’ll ask the owner of that piece of land to bring a contract to you.”
From what he said, he seemed to be very familiar with the
owner of the land.
That was even better!
Lucille heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you. Please rest early, Mr. Joseph. Good night.”
After that, Lucille hung up the phone.
Joseph raised his eyebrows and looked at his phone. The call only lasted 35 seconds. He shook his head, and a helpless. smile flashed across his deep gaze.
“She really has no conscience,” he muttered.
In the villa, the professional construction team was still
smashing away at the wall.
Culver came out and respectfully reported, “Mr. Joseph, the leader of the construction team said that everything can be done in two days.”
“Okay.”
Joseph nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered,
Tomorrow morning, we will set off for Talford Village. By the way, bring all the title deeds of the land there.
“Understood!”
The next day, a subtle breeze was blowing and the clouds were billowing.
At 9:30 in the morning, Lucille personally went to the entrance of the village.
