“Mr. Quincy, meeting you is better than knowing you by your reputation.” Franklin’s eyes were filled with admiration. He took two steps forward and extended his hand to shake Henry’s right hand. “It’s all thanks to you today. Thank you!”
“You’re welcome, Mr. Lynch.” Henry smiled and joked, “After all, I’ve been paid.”
“As you should be!” Franklin nodded hastily. “I’m willing to pay whatever amount after seeing those old men admit defeat!”
“Haha, you don’t have to worry about the money, Mr. Lynch.” Henry blinked. “I can’t take your money twice.”
Franklin was momentarily stunned, then he thought that his son must have already paid. He quickly nodded and said resolutely, “Anyway, I want to thank you for coming all the way, Mr. Quincy.”
“As I should.” Henry smiled. “I have something else to do, so I’ll be leaving.”
“Go ahead!” Franklin let go of his hand. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
After sending Mr. Quincy and his assistant to their car, he turned to Richard and said in high spirits, “Mr. Ramirez, buy a long string of firecrackers, then notify the merchants that the Tower is open for business at eleven sharp!”
“Alright, Mr. Lynch!” Richard answered in a loud voice.
Half an hour later, in an office of The Pavillion that was being renovated, Henry played a video on his cell phone.
Jerry looked up and glanced at it before nodding in a satisfied manner. “Very good. Mm, that’s right. Could I trouble you to send it to me?”
Henry wrinkled his brow a little. “Mr. Locker, this doesn’t seem to be what we agreed upon.”
“What if I insist on it?” Jerry narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone was ambiguous.
After a moment’s silence, Henry raised his brows and smiled. “Then I’ll send it to you. I believe you won’t spread it to others.”
Jerry gave him a deep look and then waved his hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll only send it to one person. I promise that it won’t spread.”
Henry hesitated for a while before nodding.
After receiving the video, Jerry sent it to Jacob, along with the message ‘Delete immediately after watching’.
Jerry showed his chat interface to Henry. He had a deep gaze and a quiet voice as he said, “Mr. Quincy, are you interested in doing things for our chamber of commerce?”
On the other end, at the entrance of Dixy Land, Jacob casually glanced at the video that Jerry sent over before deleting it.
Getting the relevant department leaders to personally take down the seal was just an interlude. Looking for the mastermind behind the scenes was the most important.
And he believed that it would happen sooner or later.
“Why did you stop? Didn’t you see that your daughter has run far away?” Moira’s lips twitched, looking at the person who was blocking her.
Raising his head to see his daughter hopping and skipping into the amusement park, Jacob smiled and kept his cell phone.
Walking into the park, what came into view first was still the gigantic Dixy dog, who had children climbing all over one of its legs.
It was the first day of the weekend, so there were many families with children.
Sounds of laughter, shouts, cries, and the background music of rides rose and fell in succession endlessly. It made the amusement park exceptionally lively.
“Here!” Heidi’s little hands were raised high as she stood in the crowd near the Dixy dog.
Seeing those people, Jacob’s brow wrinkled slightly. “Group activity?”
“Haven’t you been in the kindergarten?” Moira rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t you know that today is the parent-child activity day for Heidi Buddy’s class?”
“Is that true?” Jacob walked over, a little embarrassed.
