The Ultimate Reborn Heiress (Scarlett) novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 An Official Matter

Blade Destroyer didn’t dare to offend these professional coaches.

Unfortunately, Scarlett had disabled friend requests entirely.

The coaches couldn’t add her.

But they didn’t give up. They kept trying to find a way to contact Scarlett.

They even downloaded the video and showed it to the pro players in their own teams.

They wanted their players to study Lorelea’s game sense.

The players in professional esports teams were nothing like Blade Destroyer.

They all had real gaming talent.

They could tell this Lorelea had played a flawless game without a single mistake. It was insane.

Of course, all of that came later.

For now, Scarlett was happily playing games.

After that casual match, Alex couldn’t help saying, “Scarlett’s so good. Why don’t we just play ranked? With five people, we can queue together regardless of rank.”

So the five of them started playing ranked.

They discovered Scarlett could play any role.

And she played every role well.

In one hour, they won four games in a row.

The gaming experience was absolutely incredible.

They only played for an hour though, because Zoey’s husband, Daniel, came over.

Seeing the kids playing games, he smiled. “Playing games, everyone?”

The group immediately became a bit stiff.

Daniel wasn’t just an elder. He was also the Deputy Mayor of Maswein. Although his presence wasn’t harsh or intimidating, it was different from ordinary people. There was an air of authority and integrity about

him.

It put people on edge.

Eva and Gerald immediately greeted him respectfully. “Hello, Mr. Crawford.”

Alex also called out a bit nervously, “Hello, Uncle Daniel.”

Callie quietly called out, “Hi, Dad.”

Daniel walked over and patted Callie on the shoulder, speaking gently, “Callie, keep playing with your cousin and the others. I need to talk to Scarlett about something.”

Scarlett looked at Daniel.

Daniel said, “Hello, Ms. Sanchez. I’m Callie’s father. There’s something I’d like to discuss with you today. It’s not a personal matter. It’s more of an official matter.”

Scarlett nodded and stood up to follow Daniel out to the garden.

The man before her was in his 40s, but he was refined and scholarly. His presence was powerful.

Scarlett didn’t feel the slightest bit nervous. She didn’t trail behind Daniel either. She walked right beside him.

Eva watched Scarlett leave with Daniel.

She finally couldn’t help saying, “Scarlett’s really something else. She’s not even intimidated by Mr. Crawford.”

Eva had always been bold and carefree by nature.

But when facing Daniel, she felt genuinely nervous deep down.

…

Scarlett and Daniel arrived at the garden outside the banquet hall.

There was no one else in the garden. The two of them went to the gazebo, and Daniel got straight to the point.

“Ms. Sanchez, here’s the situation. Maswein is currently undergoing major development planning. Right now, the zoo area is generating a lot of traffic, and visitor numbers are still increasing. The city’s development plan is looking to expand in that direction.

“So I wanted to ask you, Ms. Sanchez, what your thoughts are on the zoo. Can we count on the zoo’s traffic to continue growing steadily? Please don’t misunderstand. We’re aware that you own half the shares in the zoo.”

The zoo’s traffic had been so high lately that it had become a viral sensation, boosting Maswein’s overall

economy.

The city government wanted to incorporate it into their planning.

Naturally, they had looked into who owned the zoo.

That was how they learned Scarlett was a shareholder.

Daniel had clearly done his research. He knew that Grezeol and those monkeys becoming internet- famous zoo attractions was definitely Scarlett’s doing.

He wasn’t going to question how Scarlett had tamed those animals or how unbelievable it seemed.

He only knew that Scarlett was impressive.

And not just in this area.

He had a feeling this young woman had other remarkable abilities as well.

In his current position, all he thought about was how to help the city develop better.

It was really about urban planning and increasing the city’s GDP.

But real estate development was hitting some roadblocks right now.

The real estate market had reached a bottleneck. Using it to drive GDP growth wasn’t really feasible

anymore.

Maswein’s GDP had never been particularly strong.

As the Deputy Mayor, he naturally wanted Maswein to thrive.

Improving the city’s overall economy would benefit all of Maswein’s residents.

As for the city’s overall development plan, he thought the zoo could be a good starting point.

Because the forest behind Maswein Forest Zoo had never been disturbed. It could qualify as a four–star national scenic area. It just hadn’t been developed yet.

If the zoo’s traffic could be sustained, they could develop that forest area into a scenic attraction too.

If the zoo’s traffic remained strong, they might even be able to allocate more land to expand it.

Once the scenic area was established, other developments nearby would gradually follow.

But right now, the top priority was the zoo,

That was why he wanted to use this opportunity to feel Scarlett out.

Scarlett understood what Daniel was getting at.

She said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Crawford. The zoo’s traffic will continue to hold steady. Eventually, the other animals at the zoo can start interacting with visitors too. Also, I’d like to make some changes to the landscaping around the zoo. I want to plant more flowers.”
