He had gone through a great deal to uncover the news that this land would be taken over in the future. When that happened, its value would skyrocket beyond measure.

If he let it slip away now, wouldn’t he be handing that fortune straight to Nathaniel?

No. That wasn’t happening.

“Elena, Nathaniel—how about this? I truly want to show respect to our ancestors. I’ll add more on top of the original price for the land. What do you think?” Robert said.

Nathaniel lifted his gaze. “How could I do that? You’re my uncle. How could I profit from you?”

“What are you saying? Business is business. Accounts should be clear,” Robert replied quickly. “How about this—I’ll add ten million.”
