He stepped forward, took the laptop from Julian’s desk, and quickly pulled up a list. His fingers flew across the keys with practiced efficiency.

"This is called Moonreef Shore," Maxwell continued. "It offers a stunning shoreline, private access to a coral reef, and is renowned for its breathtaking moonlit views."

One by one, Maxwell introduced several more islands, detailing each one’s potential for sightseeing, luxury living, or business development.

Julian finally made his choice. "Purchase the Palm Bay Island," he said with firm finality, turning to face Maxwell. "Prepare it before midnight."

Maxwell nodded as he left the study to prepare the gift.
