All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 321 Just a Deal

The Winfreds were a prestigious family in Oceanvile. Oceanvile was renowned alongside Casier, and if Casier were considered the aristocracy, then Oceanvile would be a rising star.

The Winfreds were involved in the mining business and made a fortune in previous years. Although they had a tough time in recent years, they had a solid financial foundation.

A few months ago, they acquired a rare mine in South Apridon, which attracted envy from the whole industry.

Now, they unexpectedly let go of this lucrative opportunity for the sake of an illegitimate child, which was a generous act.

It was no wonder Sean didn’t value family ties. The Scotts also used to be a prestigious family, and there was a lot of scheming and deceit among the wealthy. He had seen it all. When it came to profit, parents and siblings were all considered trivial matters.

“Cassie, is this a trap?”

Catherine always thought Sean was reliable in his actions, and indeed he was. He never did anything without certainty.

People thought that Sean was reckless, heartless, and did whatever he wanted. But they didn’t know he was discreet, leaving no detail unattended!

Catherine understood Sean’s meaning, and compared to his worries, she seemed much calmer. “No. That mine is too rare. Even if the Winfreds choose to keep it, they won’t be able to benefit from it. The Winfreds are facing financial difficulties, and although they have handed over the mining rights, the rest will still belong to the Winfreds three years from now!”

Sean had heard about that mine, and it was said to have a considerable reserve.

At present, it was only in the exploration phase. It would take at least a year or two before actual mining could commence. The Winfreds had granted a three-year window for these mining rights.

In reality, only one year of the mining rights was available. After three years, they would take it back. By then, they would get pure profit.
