“I hear you,” the assistant said quickly, “but I’m just worried he’ll beat you to it and snatch that land before we can.”
Janus swirled his wine glass with practiced elegance, watching the crimson liquid ripple against the crystal. “Relax. He won’t get it. Even though I didn’t walk away with a deal today, Ryan made one thing very clear. The person running Skyreach has a backbone. When people like that dig their heels in, threats don’t work. Like he said, they’re perfectly happy to sit on a pile of scrap just to prove a point.”
‘But if that’s the case,” the assistant said, his voice tight with anxiety, “the question of the inheritance will just keep hanging in the
air.”
Janus took a slow sip of the red wine. “That’s not our problem to solve right now.”
‘What about Skyreach?” the assistant asked. “Should we keep the pressure on?”
Janus leaned back, his eyes narrowing. “Of course. Why stop now? They already know I’m the one behind the headlines, so there’s no point in hiding. Ryan claims his boss doesn’t care about the bad press? Fine. Let’s see exactly how much they can stomach.”
Over the next two days, the storm around Skyreach only grew. The internet was a minefield of vitriol directed at the Light Estate >roject.
I used to respect Skyreach, especially for their medical supplies, but this real estate project is disgusting.”
Toxic waste under the soil and they’re still building? They’ve lost their minds. It’s pure greed.”
What is the Chairman thinking? The news is everywhere and they haven’t even paused construction. Are they waiting for someone o drop dead before they do something?”
Maybe we should wait for the facts? Their previous projects were solid. We shouldn’t believe everything we read.”
I’ll be watching. I want to see if they actually manage to sell a single unit.”
n the Skyreach offices, Karina slammed her tablet onto the desk, fuming as she read the comments. “These people are inbelievable. No evidence, no facts! Just pure, toxic gossip. It’s infuriating.”
.ilian set aside the final document of the day and smiled. “Why let them get under your skin? They don’t know the truth, so they ust echo whatever they hear. They can spin a whole conspiracy theory out of a single sentence. Getting angry at them is just a vaste of your energy.”
‘But it’s damaging us,” Karina argued. “How are we supposed to keep the project moving with this hanging over our heads?”
‘Don’t worry,” Lilian said calmly. “The louder they shout now, the harder it’s going to hurt when the truth hits them. Just look at it as free publicity.”
Karina sighed, defeated. “I guess that’s one way to look at it.”
‘Any word from Ryan?” Lilian asked.
Karina frowned. “Nothing yet. The lab results should have been back by now, but they’re claiming the samples are… complicated. They need more time for a deeper analysis.”
Lilian looked up, her interest piqued. “Complicated?”
