After the discussion was over, Dylan and Maya intended to say goodbye to the people in the place. The two left the restaurant for the Porsche that had been parked in front of the restaurant.Gundo was seen walking after them, escorting them to leave as a token of his gratitude and the kind treatment he had shown to Dylan and Maya.Just before getting into the Porsche, Dylan turned his body once. Dylan looked straight ahead with both eyes, then shook hands with Gundo."I hope you can decide quickly. Be careful in choosing that person, Gundo," Dylan said.Gundo nodded, he grasped Dylan's right hand tightly with both hands, "Of course. I will be careful in doing so."Dylan smiled happily at those words. The restaurant had been around for many years, with employees changing hands but Gundo was still there because he was the owner.The heir to the Sullivan family was pretty sure that Gundo would be able to choose people who could work well together, especially when it came to maintaining a
The two continued to work on their respective jobs until Dylan was distracted again when his cell phone rang loudly, an incoming call from a contact named Wilson.Dylan stopped what he was doing, picked up his cell phone that had been lying on the desk and stepped away from the desk, approaching the glass window behind his chair."Hello, Dylan here," Dylan said."Hello, there's important information you need to hear," Wilson replied.Dylan squinted, full of attention and curiosity. Dylan occasionally looked back, glancing at Maya who was still sitting on the sofa while jotting down some notes on a book and tab."I heard that Monarch is going to sell some of its shares. They're doing that in hopes of getting other investors," Wilson replied."Selling shares? That makes Robert potentially the highest shareholder in Monarch," Dylan interjected."That's true. He told the other investors, but no one has come to visit Monarch yet," Wilson said.Dylan cleared his throat. Of course, investors
"You want to sell the shares you have now?" asked Dylan.Nathan, with a smile on his face, nodded in agreement to Dylan's question. He could already see and predict what would happen to the Monarch in the near future, so it was no wonder he had the courage to propose to sell the shares he had in the Monarch to Dylan."I don't want to continue dwelling on Monarch, especially after I realized that Monarch is on the verge of collapse," Nathan replied."I'll get the paperwork ready if you want. I'll probably sell it next month," Nathan said.Of course, Dylan would never turn down such a proposal, as he was looking for shares from the shareholders. If Dylan could get two large shares from Lawrence and Rockefeller, then the number of shares owned by Sullivan would equal the number of shares owned by Watson.Nathan picked up his wine glass again and began to sip the drink just as before. He occasionally glanced forward, noticing Dylan who was currently sitting in front of him, next to Maya.
Dylan seemed to be tidying up his files that had been piled irregularly on his desk. He arranged them according to the priority category of the plan, there were several arranged according to the plan he would be working on regarding the revenge against the Watson family.It wasn't difficult for the man to organize it properly, considering Dylan had already memorized exactly how the plan went and what he needed. Dylan turned his head to the side, looking at the glass table in front of the long sofa.There were a few small books and glasses that were no longer in use, the bottle of wine that they had originally enjoyed was also gone.The man would only take care of the books, as for the glasses and wine bottles, Dylan would have the servants in the house take care of them.There was a knock coming from the direction of the study door, a quiet but intense knock. Dylan told the person on the other side of the door to come in until Maya arrived to tell Dylan something."Your car is ready,
Getting into the black sedan, Diaz continued to drive away from the place. Dylan and Maya continued to wait in the car in the back seat as they talked to each other about the empty house."We'll need to do some demolition if we decide to choose that place," Maya said."Don't worry. Demolition will be easy if we reach an agreement with the house owner," said Dylan."Or do we not need to dismantle it?" Maya asked.Dylan squinted, turning his head to the side with both eyes continuing to stare at Maya who was currently sitting beside him, "That's impossible. The house has probably been abandoned by the owner for quite some time. The walls and roof are prone to collapse and potentially dangerous.""But we can renovate it, it's much more cost-effective than building from scratch," Maya said.Diaz, who had been behind the wheel of the car, listened to what Maya had to say. He did not know what kind of empty house the two of them were referring to, but Diaz fully agreed that renovation would
***The next day.Today was an important day for Dylan. He has made an appointment with the owner of the empty house, the demolition plan will not happen and will change to renovation.Gundo prefers the renovation option over demolition, not only because demolition would be costly, but also because the house still looks solid and usable.Only some parts need to be renovated. Yesterday, the trio had not had a chance to see the condition inside the house, so the final decision on whether to demolish or renovate will be decided now.Since the meeting was not so official, Dylan decided to wear a casual outfit, but still looked presentable to those who saw him.He was still in the room, looking prepared with his eyes focused unwaveringly ahead, watching himself through the reflection in the mirror. He was completely ready, just waiting for Maya to arrive.Not long after, there was a soft knock on the door to Dylan's room. The man immediately turned around, stepped closer to the door and op
Together with Gundo and the owner of the empty house, Dylan and Maya stepped through the front yard until they reached the front of the house.The two people saw clearly what the condition of the house was like, there were indeed some damaged parts, but according to Maya, the damage was not fatal.The damage in question included peeling paint, wood that was porous due to termites, and broken tiles on the roof. Such things can be resolved by renovating."Come, see the inside," said the homeowner.The middle-aged man slowly opened the door, revealing the inside of the empty house, which was covered in dust and cobwebs. Some furniture was still in place, such as sofas, chairs, cabinets, and some kitchen utensils."Didn't you take all this stuff?" asked Dylan."I bought a fully furnished house elsewhere, so I no longer need the old furniture," said the man who owned the house.The living room looked spacious, with some changes that could be made to make it a restaurant. Gundo was the busi
***The next day.Maya had gotten information about the landlord's phone number, and his name was Jacob. Dylan did not plan to return to the empty house again and sign the agreement.He thought of signing the agreement here, at the Sullivan residence. Maya had already notified Jacob to come to this place, especially since he had no objection to doing it at the Sullivan residence."When will he come to this place?" asked Dylan, still standing focused on the study window connected to the outside of the Sullivan residence in the house's backyard."From Jacob's text, he'll probably arrive around ten in the morning," Maya replied.The woman was still standing firmly before Dylan's desk with her eyes focused on Dylan, specifically Dylan's back, which felt large and authoritative.Dylan nodded, looking back with both eyes fixed attentively on Maya. Dylan turned around, stepped closer to the desk, and sat on it."When will the contractor start renovating the house?" asked Dylan, curious."Fro
