Chapter 1413 Too Discreet Compared to Her Flancé The urban village's people had their own agenda. What they wanted was simple-more money.
They didn't care what the authorities thought or how things worked behind the scenes. All they knew was that a gullible target had arrived, and they weren't going to let the opportunity slip by without taking advantage of it.
Over the years, this had beca routine. Their acting skills were impressive. They would always portray themselves as weak and vulnerable, selzing the moral high ground in the process.
Cyrus hadn't understood this before, but now he did.

He instinctively wanted to retreat. “Wynter, let's not get involved even if we got lucky and stumbled upon a good opportunity with policies in our favor. We can handle the family matters slowly." "Who said I'm here to deal with family matters?" Wynter twisted the cap off a bottle and took a sip of water. "You're the Whitman family's eldest grandson, and I'm just here to help Grandpa with his health. The rest isn't my concern." She glanced sideways at him with one hand on the steering wheel. "This is about business, not feelings. Cyrus, you're still too soft." Cyrus couldn't deny that he wasn't cut out for this sort of thing. "I'm just worried we might not be able to handle what's coming." His worries weren't unfounded. There were plenty of past cases where, during demolitions, people who were unreasonable and lacked legal knowledge caused serious trouble and even fatalities.
He couldn't help but feel uneasy about the people in this urban village. Interacting with them left him with a deep sense of dread.
To his surprise, Wynter actually relented after listening to him. "You're right. We won't be able to handle this. Since you're already planning to withdraw your investment, go back and talk to Aunt Ophelia about the situation here." Cyrus wasn't foolish and snapped his head up. "Are you saying that my mom... that's impossible!" If it really cto that, and the Whitman family didn't support Wynter, it would be the sas stabbing her in the back.
"Whether it's possible or not, go talk to her first," Wynter replied casually. "Before that, contact Mr. Calico. Tell him I've completed the site assessment and ask when he's ready to sign the contract.
"Also, let him know that I'm in a hurry. If negotiations with the urban village fall through, we can start with the land I mentioned.
"But he should understand that I'm interested in that land specifically for the residents in that area. So, he should think carefully about the price for any additional land." Cyrus took note of these points seriously. However, he still didn't understand why she was so interested in that particular plot of land. It wasn't worth taking even if it was offered for free.
Wynter's answer was straightforward. "Proceed with the negotiations." When Alejandro received the message, his thoughts were the sas Cyrus'. Disdain was etched on his expression.

Alejandro took a sip of tea. "Yes.

After all, this is just a piece of land that no one else wants. Just let her have it." "Understood!" They were eager to seize the opportunity since they finally had someone naive enough to fall for their tactics.
The land acquisition applications from Kenton and Wynter were m submitted simultaneously, but the relevant meetings had not yet concluded. Wynter had planned to take Cyrus back after leaving the urban village. After all, they were more or less finished up there.
However, before she could even drive out the land, she encountered Dalton standing next to ah off-road vehicle.
It was a sight that was impossible to overlook. Wynter had thought her sports car was quite flashy, but seeing Dalton now made her realize she was still way too discreet in comparison.
