Chapter 113 Robin Still Has Feelings for Alice 

Are you absolutely sure Alice and Zachary have acquired the Southvale land?” 

Robin shook his head as he watched Alice and Zachary walk away

He had uncovered an essential piece of intel at Wright Mansion: In just three days, the city council would officially greenlight investment and development in Southvale

When the announcement came, the area would become a hotbed for investor interest

If Alice and Zachary knew about this, no threat would make them sell the land cheaply

Vera shot Robin an annoyed look. Why would I waste my time lying to you about this

Alice is here to meet with Howard, hoping Ms. Dunn will be convinced to take over the Southvale property.” 

Robin chuckled, intrigued by her persistence

Vera sighed. Of course, I know it’s a long shot. Howard likely won’t agree

The Dunn Group doesn’t see much value in that type of investment 

Besides, Southvale is basically a moneypit, nobody wants to take it on.” 

Robin shrugged. If you know it’s going to fall flat, why even bother?” 

Vera exhaled. Alice’s family situation is pretty complicated right now. I’ve told you about it

Her grandfather just returned from overseas, but his health is failing, and the doctors have given him a grim prognosis: only six months left

With the Millersshareholders and relatives aware of this, they’re angling to seize control of Miller Group. They don’t like the idea of Alice at the helm

MEN 

Just yesterday, at the Eastvale project, Alice’s reckless moves worsened Miller Group’s already dire 

situation

Now, her family and shareholders are up in arms

They’ve even brought up the Southvale investment, demanding answers from Alice.” 

Robin threw up his hands in exasperation. She brought this on herself.” 

Vera gave a resigned smile. Yeah. After listening to Zachary’s pitch, Alice invested a billion dollars from the Miller Group into the Southvale project

Now, her family and shareholders have turned against her

If she can’t handle the Southvale situation, they’ll band together to force her grandfather to strip her of her executive role at Miller Group

On top of that, the loan Miller Group took out for the southvale land is about to mature, and the bank has issued a repayment notice

If Alice can’t come up with 500 million to pay off the loan in the next few days, the Miller Group could get embroiled in a debt crisis

If that happens, it’ll start a domino effect, and the whole company might collapse

Today’s contract signing event has already dealt a serious blow to Miller Group

If word gets out that the bank loans are overdue, it could be the end for the Millers

Technically, the shareholders do have the funds to stabilize Miller Group

But they’re refusing to intervene, using the Southvale ness as leverage to take back control from Alice. 

Right now, the Southvale land is Alice’s biggest hurdle If she doesn’t relinquish it, it’ll be difficult for her to stay in Miller Group

You might not know this, but Alice has a lot of pride. She’s always dreamed of becoming a powerful businesswoman like Daphne and has no intention of stepping back from Miller Group’s leadership

That’s why she’s trying to sell the Southvale land at half its value just to cover the bank loan

If she can stabilize Miller Group, her family and shareholders won’t be able to make drastic moves against her for now

Her grandfather still dotes on her, so unless something major happens, her family won’t be able to touch her position.” 

As Robin and Vera talked, they spotted Jonah rushing in from the lobby

Having done business with Jonah over the years. Vera knew him well

Ms. Silva, good to see you. I’m in a bit of a hurry,” Jonah said, nodding at Vera before he made his way to the front desk

Vera watched Jonah’s worn, rushed figure enter the elevator and sighed

Robin, do you know who that is? He’s the contractor responsible for the Southvale Infinity Tower

Three years back, he was a major force in Harmonfield’s real estate scene, even earning the nickname The Harmonfield Gamblerbecause of his risky investments in the Infinity Tower

In the last three years, he’s sold off nearly two decades worth of assets and, between personal financing and bank loans, invested close to 20 billion in the Infinity Tower and the surrounding commercial 

projects

Robin glanced at Jonah’s tall, slightly hunched frame, his lips twitching

Vera exhaled à deep sigh. Do you know about the Infinity Tower in Southvale, Robin

It’s not just a building; it’s part of a large commercial ecosystem, with a shopping district and business hub surrounding it. Altogether, it takes up almost half of Southvale’s commercial area

Chapter 113 Robin Still Has Feelings for Alice 

*All of it is under Jonah’s name; it was once his big gamble

Only, his luck turned sour

The promised development documents for Southvale never came through

In the end, the city’s investment focus shifted to the Eastvale site

Lately, rumors have been circulating that Jonah’s hit rock bottom; no one is interested in taking over his commercial project at Infinity Tower

Today, he’s here at Dunn’s Eastvale Development Grouplikely to see if Ms. Dunn might assist with his Infinity Tower issues.” 

Robin mused, You think Jonah is hoping the Dunn Group will take over his Infinity Tower project

Vera nodded. Seems that way. While he doesn’t have a business relationship with Ms. Dunn, he’s done plenty of business with Howard in the past. Perhaps he’s trying to see if Mr. Dixon decides to help him

I doubt Ms. Dunn would agree, even if Howard gives his approval” 

Just as Vera was about to elaborate, Robin’s sudden question interrupted her. How much cash can you Gather?” 

Vera halted, taken by surprise. What are you getting at? Are you really suggesting that I invest in the Southvale property

If that’s what you’re considering, you can forget it. I lack the necessary funds at the moment. Even if I owned shares in the Davidson Group, they can’t be quickly converted to cash

Even adding in my shares from the Silva Group, I still wouldn’t be able to afford the Infinity Tower

Besides, I’m not foolish enough to throw my money into Southvale, especially knowing it’s a losing venture. I’m not running a charity

I feel for them, but that doesn’t mean I’m obligated to assist them
