The land in the west of the city had always been obscure, so since when had it become so popular that even she cared about it? Why was his interest in the west of the city known by everyone before the bet even began?

He didn't know if it was his years of experience in the field that made him so sensitive and vigilant, but he sensed that something was off, but he couldn't put a finger on it.

"Is that true? I also think that the development on the east side is already quite mature! It is obvious that the development between both sides is not on par, and it's not good for the city overall. The west side definitely has endless possibilities! Mr. Clements, you sure have a good eye! I wonder which part of the west city did Soaver International set its eyes on? What are your plans for investment this time? Perhaps we could even work together so that the benefits will not be passed on to outsiders?"

Frederick said with a faint smile,

"Nope! It's all still a discussion in progress. Once we have our plans, we will definitely inform you! We're celebrating today! Let's not ruin the mood by talking about work!"

This time, Frederick took the initiative to make toasts with some people.

Soon, Mr. Lance brought some newbies elsewhere, leaving only Christian behind. Then, he said, "Are you doing alright lately?"

"Yup!"

Frederick didn't feel like talking to him therefore he answered indifferently.

Before this, Alicia would definitely make some excuses to reduce the awkwardness or she would even leave. However, after the last experience, even though she could understand Christian standing from his perspective, she was still very disappointed!

Therefore, she wouldn't make a move if Frederick didn't say anything. However, she still glanced at him. Frederick held her hand and it was obvious that he didn't want her to leave.

Christian felt that his relationship with Frederick was worse than ever. He guessed it had to do with Alicia getting hurt last time. However, he was still an elder and it was hard for him to say his apologies. "Work is never ending! Come back and have a meal whenever you have time!"

Christian added with an imploring tone, "Together!"

He peered at Alicia as if he was trying to say that he still acknowledged and accepted her!

Suddenly, Alicia felt that the man in front of her was just a father who wished to have a good relationship with his son. He was very pitiful actually!

However, thinking about Frederick' s past experiences, and when she saw his happy family walking around, she felt her heart ache for him. She tightened her hand that was holding Frederick' s.

On the other hand, Frederick just answered Christian lightly. He did not agree nor reject, "Grandma's here! If there's nothing else, we're going over there!"
