Chapter 20

The project in Yrare had been under Neville’s management for nearly half a year. With construction about to commence, the fund of 600 million dollars for the project vanished.

Although the Preston family was rich enough to handle this, this amount of money wasn’t negligible. Neville had to trace the whereabouts of the missing funds.

Madison suddenly realized that he had quietly grown up into a young adult, mature and considerate

From now on, she wouldn’t miss any moment of his growth.

After breakfast, Madison informed Ross to go to the airport.
