The Legendary Man novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108 Tanya Hazard

Shortly after, when they left the Smith mansion, the Chevrolet that was there to pick them up had been replaced by a Bentley.

And their driver was none other than Hugo’s eldest son, the former general manager of Smith Group.

While sitting in the car, Margaret wore a smug expression on her face.

So what if you’re Miguel Smith, the eldest son of the Smith family and the general manager of Smith Group? You’ve still got to be my driver, don’t you?

Meanwhile, Jonathan took out his phone and made a call as he sat beside Josephine.

“Hello, Mr. Goldstein.”

As soon as the call connected, Harrison’s voice drifted out. Despite it being a phone call, his tone still carried a trace of wariness.

“Let the Smith family handle the Blackwood family’s ecological park project,” Jonathan ordered, his voice mild.

“Understood, Mr. Goldstein!”

 

Harrison didn’t dare have any objections.

“Have the person in charge of the ecological park project discuss the details with the Smith family tomorrow. Also, find a well-funded real estate firm and have them take charge of the construction of the ecological park,” Jonathan continued blithely.

While the Smith family is ambitious, they definitely can’t eat the whole pie of the ecological park project. An ecological park project costs several billion at the very least, and a third-rate family like them probably can’t even handle a project worth a few hundred million, let alone a few billion. What’s more, the Smith family hasn’t any experience in anything related to the real estate industry! They have always been in the F&B and fashion industries!

“Why do you still want to find a real estate firm, Mr. Goldstein?” Hearing that, Harrison couldn’t help reminding, “Isn’t there a well-funded real estate firm right before your eyes?”

“Are you referring to Graham Group?”

Jonathan’s brows furrowed slightly.

At first, I indeed contemplated having Graham Group take over this project. But considering their capability, what else would the Smith family have to do then? Simply take the money without doing anything? I don’t mind, but Josephine will likely have something to say about that.

“I’ll go and talk to Graham tomorrow.” After that, Jonathan hung up the phone.

But no sooner had he done so than Josephine turned to him and urged, “Why don’t we just forget about it? The scale of a project such as the ecological park is probably far too ambitious for the Smith family.” Frowning, she continued, “Furthermore, the Smith family has never been involved in the real estate industry. We might find ourselves in hot water if we were to act recklessly.”

After all, the difference between industries is vast. Although the Smith family is doing pretty well in the F&B and fashion industries, we know nothing about the real estate industry. If Graham Group were to take over the ecological park project, what has that got to do with the Smith family anymore? We’ll become mere profiteers, no? Then, what’s my function as the general manager?

“Are you that unconfident in yourself?” Jonathan couldn’t resist chuckling when he saw her frowning, teasing, “This isn’t the Josephine I know!”

As far as I remember, she’s exceedingly proud, so much so that she’d rather ride a shabby electric scooter to work than give those men with ulterior motives the slightest opportunity!

“It’s not that I’m unconfident. I’m just worried that I can’t do it well.” The ecological park is a multibillion project. It’s no joke if anything goes wrong!
