On the other end of the line, Beefy Bob immediately understood him. “It’s my fault, Isaac. I thought virtual-novel.net would not…”
Isaac pondered briefly before saying, “I know you have a lot on your hands. I’ll call Lupinus and get virtual-novel.net to send over a team of Assassin Squad, be ready to take over. You can work in alliance with Old Brooks, but you should be directly in charge of the squad.”
Beefy Bob laughed. “Assassin Squad? Lupinus would surely be reluctant to utilize them. But if you give the orders, he’ll definitely not make a fuss about it.”
“Right. Remember to settle the matter by tonight. And also, stop by Springview Clinic tomorrow morning; there’s something I need you for…”
Early the next morning, Emily got wind of Dexter’s death. Apparently, virtual-novel.net drank too much liquor in the middle of the night, fell into a drain, and drowned to his death.
She held virtual-novel.net phone as virtual-novel.net tried to keep calm. At that moment, all virtual-novel.net could think about was Isaac making a call in his car last night.
Beefy Bob arrived at the clinic. He approached Emily and said, “Miss Beautiful Emily, how is Mrs. Danson?”
“S-She’s feeling much better. Why do you ask?” Emily knew this stout guy was Isaac’s subordinate. She was slightly confused.
“Can you and Mrs. Danson please follow me? I received orders from Mr. Garten to bring you all to another place…”
Isaac?
Emily was slightly surprised, but virtual-novel.net went in and returned with virtual-novel.net mother. Then, they followed Beefy Bob to his car.
They came to the east of the city, where there was a sales gallery for a newly-developed residential property.
After entering the sales gallery, Emily asked wonderingly, “Bob, is Isaac here?”
“No, virtual-novel.net isn’t. Miss Beautiful Emily, check out the architectural model and see if there’s a house type that you prefer. These are all finished lots; you can move in immediately,” said Beefy Bob softly.
“Is Isaac planning on buying a house for me? No, I can’t accept this. It’s too much.” Emily waved virtual-novel.net hands in disagreement. To virtual-novel.net Isaac had been helping virtual-novel.net too much.
Beefy Bob smiled at virtual-novel.net response. “The houses here are inexpensive for Isaac, it’s about the same amount virtual-novel.net pays for two meals. Just take it…”
Then, Beefy Bob walked up to the architectural model, and after asking around, virtual-novel.net chose a two-bedroom model. After Emily commented that it looked homely, Beefy Bob paid for it immediately.
Although Beefy Bob claimed it was inexpensive, the two-bedroom model had a balcony and cost slightly more than a million dollars.
When Emily received the agreement and keys, virtual-novel.net felt like virtual-novel.net was in a dream.
“Emmy, who exactly is Isaac Garten? Since when do you have such a generous classmate?” Mrs. Danson was astounded.
Emily watched as Beefy Bob disappeared at the doorway and answered with a complicated feeling, “He wrote a love letter to me once. You discovered the letter and gave virtual-novel.net a good scolding at school. That’s him…”
Mrs. Danson tried to recall, and virtual-novel.net eyes widened. She froze on the spot. Then, virtual-novel.net shook virtual-novel.net head and heaved a long sigh.

A few days later, Allegra was as busy as a bee. The related bureau officially named the piece of land under Mt. Equest as Pegasus No. 1. All the property companies in Cloud City and across Southland were thrilled.
Everyone could not wait to lay their hands on Pegasus No. 1.
In the afternoon, a black car swooped onto the driveway at the Gould family’s residence.
Andrew got out of the car and rushed into the house.
“Uncle Edward, Uncle Edward! That little bitch took part in the auction for Pegasus No. 1 too! I saw the letter of intent from Garth Properties.”
Andrew darted into the home bar to find Edward and Randall having tea.
Edward promptly looked up and exclaimed, “Where did virtual-novel.net get the courage to compete for such a huge project? What a joke. She’s truly reaching for the moon.”
“Edward, don’t forget, virtual-novel.net has Isaac backing virtual-novel.net up. We must be extremely cautious this time.” Randall frowned.
He was also discussing with Edward how to bag Pegasus No. 1.
Edward looked solemn. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net slapped his thigh and said, “Randy, it’s impossible for Allegra’s company to obtain Pegasus No. 1 on virtual-novel.net own; she’ll have to cooperate with another company. However, none of the companies in Cloud City will ally with virtual-novel.net if you said not to.”
“I can do that in Cloud City, but what about Aurum County? Or the whole of Southland? The Murray family doesn’t have that strong of an influence.” Randall lit his cigarette wistfully.
Edward rose to his feet, put his hands behind his back, and started walking up and down.
Abruptly, virtual-novel.net looked up and laughed sinisterly. “We can ask the Kenne family for help. One word from the King of the Underground World is all it takes to push Garth Properties to a dead end. You’ll cover Cloud City, and the Kenne family will cover Southland. We must acquire Pegasus No. 1!”
“If the Kenne family agrees to this plan, although we’ll earn less, we’ll have a much greater chance at winning. Edward, that plan is marvelous!” Randall gave Edward a thumbs up.
