Rowan’s eyes sharpened. “So Janus already tried his luck. I’m curious, how did that little chat end?”

Lilian’s smile was pure mockery. “Don’t waste your time digging for info. I didn’t even see him; I let Ryan handle it. But I did have him pass along a message. I wouldn’t sell that land even if it were a literal pile of trash. You clearly don’t know me very well, Rowan. I’ve never been one to bow to pressure, and I have a very long memory for people who try to play me or use threats to get what they want.”

Rowan’s gaze turned icy. “So you’re telling me this meeting is a waste of time?”

Lilian gave him a dazzling smile. “There’s an exception to every rule. It all depends on how you want to handle this. If the price is right, I might just get into a generous mood and hand it over. After all, nobody actually hates money, right?”

“Is that so?” Rowan asked, his voice dropping to a dangerous level. “Then tell me, what’s your price?”

Lilian held up a single finger.

Rowan hesitated, scanning her face. “Ten billion?”

Lilian wagged her finger back and forth.

Rowan’s expression hardened. “A hundred billion?”

Lilian laughed. “A hundred billion? That’s insulting for someone of your status. Let’s make it an even trillion. I’m sure a little pocket change like that won’t hurt the Soren family.”

‘You aren’t taking this seriously,” Rowan hissed.

Lilian leaned back, looking perfectly relaxed. “I’m being incredibly serious. It’s a fair price. Even the price of pork is going up these days, so why wouldn’t a massive plot of land follow suit? If I set the price too low, it’s an insult to your reputation. If I set it too high, ‘m worried you can’t afford it. A trillion is the perfect middle ground. it’s easy to remember, don’t you think?”

Rowan took a slow, deep breath to steady himself. “You know as well as I do that land is currently a liability. Demanding a king’s ansom for a toxic pit is ridiculous.”

‘That’s where you’re wrong,” Lilian countered immediately. “That land was a gift from my fiancé. It has sentimental value, which makes it priceless. The fact that I’ve even given you a number is a massive discount. What more do you want?”
