It was surprising that Gia turned out to be so cheap, and even more surprising was how easily she lured the project manager.

The information Jacob passed to Zuko consisted of voice recordings. After listening to them, Zuko chuckled and deduced, “The film studio project covers a significant area. These two individuals plan to convert a portion of it into a commercial residential area and use a shell company to profit from it!”

“That’s correct.” Jacob nodded. “However, based solely on these short conversations in the recordings, we can’t draw a definite conclusion. We still need to gather more evidence.”

“Alright,” Zuko said in a deep voice, looking apologetic. “Then I’ll have to inconvenience you a little longer…”

“Do we still need to be so formal with each other?” Jacob chuckled. “The one inconvenienced is Lina, having to face her every day.”

“There’s no need to worry about our Lina!” Zuko said with pride. “She’s Uncle Nicholas’ daughter and can have her way in the Thompson Group now!”

Goosebumps spread across Jacob as he watched Zuko boast about his girlfriend.

“Let’s continue with our separate investigations then.” Zuko lightly pursed his lips. “The film studio is a new project, so there are bound to be many opportunists. I suspect the manager is just a pawn, and the mastermind may be connected to the contractor.”

“Alright.” Jacob raised his wine glass and clinked it with Zuko’s. “I’ll continue sacrificing myself then!”
