The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2560

The next day.

I had just arrived at Green Orange when Shannon came toward me. "Chairman Wagner is here in the meeting room waiting for you."

"To talk about North Courts’ land development rights?"

"That's right."

In the meeting room, Brian Wagner was seated in the main seat with a domineering air.

The secretary was about to bring a cup of tea in, but I stopped her and took it from her. “I'll do it,” I told her and let her go back to her work.

I pushed open the meeting room door and looked at him. “Why did you not inform me earlier that you would be paying us a visit, Chairman Wagner? I would have welcomed you earlier.” I placed the tea before him and sat beside him.

Brian Wagner smiled slowly after taking a sip of the tea. “I heard you serve excellent tea, President Lane. It does indeed taste pretty good today.”

Aware of the purpose of his visit, I cut to the chase and said, "You didn’t come here today to try the tea, did you, Chairman Wagner? You wanted to discuss the North Courts project, no?”

"Yes. I know you don’t care for the development rights, President Lane, but I’m very interested in them. Since we want to unite against the Yards, we must, of course, win to show them. Don’t you think so, President Lane?” Brian spoke in a leisurely manner as he expressed the purpose of his visit clearly.

I nodded and smiled slowly. “Yes. I just didn't expect you to be so ambitious this time after being unconcerned for many years.”

"Considering my grievances with the Yards, I must win. Since this is your intention, President Lane, I, of course, had to come and ensure that we win the development rights.”

Brian's determination exceeded my expectations.
