Chapter 1405 Something Is Wrong With This Land
Alejandro and his men exchanged glances and smiled. “Ms. Quinnell, you’re too kind. We welcome anyone who invests in Hawford.
“If you do acquire the land, it would undoubtedly benefit the locals as well. But, of course, there are policies and regulations that must be followed. You should be mindful of those.”
Alejandro continued with an air of authority, “This is a great location. There are things we can’t openly discuss, but this area has been included in numerous plans over the years.
“If you proceed with development, you must prioritize the people’s well–being. The residents need to be happy and satisfied. That’s the policy’s true purpose.”
Cyrus was clearly excited by what he had just heard. He hadn’t thought much of it when Wynter first suggested acquiring the land and asked him to pull some strings. But now, it seemed they had stumbled upon a plot earmarked for development within government policy.
The more he thought about it, the more thrilled he became. Throughout the meal, he kept glancing at Wynter.
Alejandro was very pleased with Cyrus‘ enthusiasm and took another sip of his liquor.
About half an hour later, Alejandro and his men finally left. They maintained a clean and respectable image as they departed without taking anything with them.
Once he and his men were in the car, Cyrus could no longer suppress his excitement. “Wynter, did you hear that? Policy! This is huge!”
Wynter responded with a lazy hum as she gazed out the window at the area where urban and rural landscapes merged, her eye subtly lifting as she took it all in. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Unlike Yvette, Wynter didn’t have memories of the news from her past life. Most of what she recalled came from her dreams. Right now, she found herself wondering just how many details Yvette was aware
- of.
From what she could gather about Kenton’s actions, it seemed that whatever he was planning wasn’t far from this location.
But Wynter had already scouted the area. Logically, it wouldn’t make sense for it to be centered here if it were a national–level project unless some unknown factor was at play–a factor that perhaps only Yvette was aware of.
Wynter glanced into the distance again. The area was too vast and would make demolition a complex task.
This meant that while the direction was indeed northwest, even Kenton didn’t seem to know the exact location. He had ordered his people to clear out the urban village within the city, assuming it wouldn’t be designated for requisition.
Wynter appeared absent–minded as she pieced her thoughts together. But in reality, her mind was in overdrive.
Cyrus had never seen Wynter like this and thought she hadn’t heard his earlier comment. “Wynter, do you know what the term ‘policy‘ means?”
He assumed that Wynter should understand these things since she came from Kingbourne.
Then, Cyrus seemed to recall something. “Right, I forgot. You were brought back to the Quinnell family.

That means you might not be familiar with some internal matters.”

“I know,” Wynter interrupted Cyrus‘ rambling, though her gaze remained fixed on the view outside. “You’re saying that this area might be requisitioned, and its price could increase significantly.”
Cyrus nodded vigorously, then added, “Oh, so you do know. Then why have you been ignoring me this whole time? We really need to build a good relationship with Mr. Calico.”
“Building relationships is important, but…” Wynter withdrew her gaze and spoke with a serious tone,” Cyrus, your approach to dealing with people needs to change.
“When negotiating, it feels like you’re giving others leverage over you. You act too submissive. We won’t lose anything even if this matter doesn’t succeed.
“I didn’t comment earlier because I wanted to see how you’ve been influenced by the Montclair family’s guidance over the years. Initially, I thought your business skills were decent, but later on, I found that the guidance you received was lacking in several ways.”
