Once upon a time, Freya didn't give a hoot about the Dawson family's company.
What had happened? It was like she'd become a completely different person.
"Audrey, if nothing else, I should head upstairs to attend to the Dawson Group's business," she said before going upstairs.
Audrey watched Freya's increasingly defiant manner with a frown.
Upstairs, Freya opened the document Alison had sent her, revealing the contract for the land she had successfully bid on in the Southern Suburbs.
Seeing the contract brought a smile to Freya's face. Fortune favored the bold, and the land was finally hers.
Freya vividly remembered that the land received government subsidies shortly after the auction due to policy adjustments encouraging suburban redevelopment. Then, a spring was discovered on the property, flowing with natural hot springs.
It was the biggest natural hot spring in Echo City, famous for how healing it was, which sent its value through the roof.
In her previous life, this land brought in billions in net profit annually with minor modifications. Within a few years, the Dawson Group would break even. This deal was a surefire win.
Meanwhile, at the Eclipse Lounge.
