Alice furrowed her brows, letting out a long sigh.

"If we can't cash in on the Southvale property, my family won't be able to repay the bank loan.

"Besides, the Southvale area will eventually be developed; it's just a matter of time.

"If someone with power invests in Southvale now, they surely won't lose out. There's a good chance they could profit."

Alice forced a bitter smile and explained, "Mr. Liam is man of significant means; he wouldn't waste money on such a questionable area

Raymond nodded in agreement. "According to the current urban development plan for Harmonfield, it Southvale stops receiving investments now, it might not see any action for over a decade." 1/4
