Chapter 1407 Cyrus Is Learning
“But he’ll be nothing once the demolition is complete” Wynter’s gaze fixed on the map on the table. “If you were him, would you really want to go through with the demolition?”
Cyrus froze.
Wynter continued in a calm and measured tone, “He’ll be no different with anyone else once the village is demolished. He won’t be able to control anyone, and his authority as the head chief will disappear, too.”
Cyrus clenched his fists. “So, this land… Should we give up on it?”
“We still need it.” Wynter suddenly asked, “Is your connection with Mr. Calico obtained through the Whitman family or the Montclair family?”
Cyrus was somewhat offended. “Can’t it be my own?”
Wynter was amused by his retort and looked at him smugly. “You were drifting abroad for so many years. One might think you went overseas for infrastructure development instead of education if you still managed to interact with domestic authorities.”
“You…” Cyrus had never encountered someone as incisive as Wynter. The fact that her observations were all accurate only made him more frustrated. He could only mumble under his breath, “It’s from the Montclair family.”
Wynter looked at him. “I guess that’s alright. See it for yourself.”
Cyrus didn’t hear her clearly. “What?”
“We’re getting this land.” Wynter didn’t make this decision in the spur of the moment. She looked at Hawford’s overall map with a faint smile. “He is not the only one playing this game.”
Cyrus was confused now. “But you just implied that Mr. Calico and the others were tricking us. The land won’t make any profit and will only drain our resources. We will have to continuously invest money.” From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Which is why we shouldn’t take the urban village. We are only taking the farmland within the village,” Wynter replied.
The farmland? Cyrus glanced at a small, insignificant piece of land on the map’s eastern side. That place was rumored to have a stinky ditch.
“Why would you want such a lousy piece of land?” Cyrus couldn’t understand.
Wynter had no intention of giving him a straightforward answer. “Because I have a plan. Remember, this is considered a bonus.
“The urban village is tricky, so we’re starting with a few households‘ land, It’s always a gradual process to acquire land. So, taking this farmland isn’t unreasonable.”
Not unreasonable? Cyrus thought Wynter was out of her mind. Although the money wouldn’t come out of his pocket, he was still concerned.
He raked his fingers through his hair in frustration. “Can you at least tell me why?”
“Didn’t you say Mr. Calico revealed some policies to you?” Wynter said as she took the map and got into her flashy Lamborghini with her usual charming flair.
Cyrus was utterly confused. If he hadn’t misunderstood initially, Wynter was likely warning him that Alejandro’s words were unreliable and that they were being set up. Yet, Wynter was now saying that it was due to the policy.

Could it be that Alejandro’s deception was actually the truth? Realizing this possibility, his eyes widened, and he couldn’t help but wonder if Alejandro himself was aware of this.
In the past, whenever Cyrus faced something he couldn’t understand, he would instinctively turn to Tamia for guidance. This time, however, he remained in the car as he tried to piece everything together.
The residents in the urban village watched as Wynter’s car drove by. Ordinary folks didn’t give it much thought, merely noting it as a luxurious car.
However, someone with a keener sense, such as the village chief, Jarek Valen, had a different perspective.
“Mr. Valen, you were right. It’s a high–end car and clearly belongs to a wealthy scion.”
The person reporting the situation took a sip of water before continuing, “They had their meal at the tourist spot we’re developing. But I didn’t dare get closer when I saw Mr. Calico there as well.”
