Chapter 102
“Since you’re buying the whole lot, I’ll give you the lowest price. We’ll say three million for the buildings. It cost the original owners over ten million to build them, you know.
However, the land area is very large, and it comes with a thirty-year title. There are regulations on that, so it can’t be less than eight million.
If you can pay in full, I can knock off another five hundred thousand p>
“Great. It’s a deal p>
The contracts were signed, the documents were stamped, and the transaction was completed smoothly.
As they were leaving with the contract, the land official even offered to treat them to a meal.
He had just brought in a huge sum, and his superiors would surely credit him for it. He might even get a promotion.
But they declined his offer. “Some other time. We have things to do today p>
“Well then, I wish you a safe trip and all the best p>
“Thank you p>
As they walked out of the government building, Kieran asked, “If we bought some of the village houses around here, could we also get a buyout from the demolition later p>
“Yes, but once the demolition order is issued, the people who sold their houses will likely protest, attracting a lot of attention. I don’t want that kind of trouble.
This plot is big enough. It’s best not to get too greedy p>
Kieran nodded. “You’re right p>
“Kieran, if you have some savings, it wouldn’t hurt to buy a few properties. A small number should be fine p>
“Hearing you say that, I think I’ll pass. I don’t want to deal with the backlash p>
Public outcry was a real headache. People often acted irrationally, only seeing that you had taken advantage of them.
“That’s fine. When I make a profit, I’ll give you a huge bonus p>
“Great. I’ll thank you in advance then, Boss p>
“Remember, once you get back, don’t tell anyone about this, not even your family p>
“Of course. This isn’t something to be spread around p>
Mira trusted Kieran’s discretion.
Finally, a major task was completed. Tomorrow, she could go to school and register with peace of mind.
When she got home, Rachel had already made dumplings and was just waiting for Mira to return to cook them.
“Rachel, your arm hasn’t fully healed.
You shouldn’t be makin
so
so complicated. A simple meat
So
would have been fine p>
“It’s no trouble. It’s all better now.
You’ve been out working hard all day. You can’t just eat whatever p>
As they were eating at the dining table, Mira’s phone rang. She glanced at the screen and answered.
Liora’s energetic voice came through the phone. “Mira, have you heard what happened today p>
“What p>
“You really don’t know p>
“Just spit it out p>
“Check the news online! That girl from your Mercer family dropped a huge bombshell today p>
Mira opened a web browser and was shocked to see the top trending story. “She works that fast p>
Miss Mara Mercer was caught getting a hotel room this morning with Wesley, the heir to the Scott fortune, by his fiancée p>
The story even included photos from the scene.
Mira showed the news to Rachel, who glanced at it once and immediately turned her head away.
Older people had no patience for such messy affairs.
“I knew she was no good. I never liked her from the moment she set foot in the Mercer house. What on earth did those people in the backwaters teach her?
Mira, this won’t affect your reputation, will it p>
“Of course, it will have some impact, since I’m also from the Mercer
family. But it won’t be too
significant. I’ve already severed ties

“As long as it’s not too bad. From now on, you shouldn’t associate with them anymore p>
“I know, Rachel p>
