Witnessing the magic of the Pill of Longevity again, Maggie went to bed holding the pill that she had privately kept for herself, feeling inexplicably warm in her heart.
Early the next morning, Maggie returned to Nebula City from Lumenopolis. She had already made an appointment with Alex to pick up the car at the auto show today, and she couldn't miss the opportunity of riding in a top sports car with Alex.
After arriving at Nebula City with great excitement, Maggie touched up her makeup before calling Alex.
"Mr. Jefferson, the auto show is about the begin. Where are you? I'll pick you up," Maggie said softly as soon as the call was connected.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Grant. The project has been approved, and I've promised to treat Benjamin to a meal. I'm gonna have to say no to the auto show." Alex's apologetic voice sounded from the other end of the line. "Oh, I see. Well, the project is more important. We'll go and collect the car some other day then." Maggie was a little disappointed inside, but thinking that the tech dome project had received its seal of approval, she simply shrugged it off.
She wasn't one to act according to her sentiments, and she knew how serious things were.
Although it was a rare opportunity to be able to go on a date with Alex, the tech dome project was more important.
But even if Alex didn't wish to go, she had planned to visit the auto show by herself just to clear her mind.
Truth be told, Alex and Evans were supposed to meet up for dinner. He simply rejected Maggie because he didn't want to give her too many chances.
But now that the tech dome project had been approved, he planned to go on a site visit to Nebula Hill with Stefan under the proposal of the city's leader.
Nebula Hill was just the name of a place in the new district. It was far away from the outskirts of the city, but not very far away from Mount Blossom.
Under the survey of a group of staff, Alex finally took a fancy to the mountain range which had a pleasant view that stretched' in every direction and was very suitable for development.
The staff had roughly surveyed that, including the entire uninhabited area outside Nebula Hill, and concluded that the total area was about thirty square kilometers, spanning across the three major urban areas of Nebula City.
"Let's just buy the entire mountain range. Ginny, please accompany Mr. Jones to the city to enquire about this in the afternoon," Alex said to Ginny who was next to him.
"If there are no competitors, we can get it with about ten million. But if there are competitors, it's hard to say," Stefan said.
As soon as Stefan finished speaking, they saw a caravan of cars approaching, from which a group of people got out of the car and they were seemingly interested in this mountain range as well.
"It's the Zuckers," Stefan said to Alex in a low voice upon realizing who the other party was, "Do they want to buy this mountain area too?"

The Zucker family was one of the four oldest families in Nebula City. They were very powerful. In terms of money alone, they might not be as powerful as Jack Sawyer, but in terms of connections, they were not inferior to the Sawyer family.
More so, the Zucker family was much stronger than the Jones family.
"Hey, aren't you Mr. Jones? Is the Jones family interested in this piece of land as well?" A young man in his mid-twenties who recognized Stefan at a glance went straight to greet him with a handshake. As for Alex, he was automatically ignored.
Alex had always kept a low profile and never exposed his identity to the media, so very little people knew about him.
Coupled with the fact that he was dressed casually, David was all the more unimpressed, thinking that he was just a staff member of Stefan's.
"Oh, Mr. Zucker, please to meet you." Stefan returned the handshake with a smile.
"Your little secretary is quite pretty, Mr. Jones," David Zucker smiled upon noticing Ginny. His eyes lit up.. "Where did you recruit her?"
"Via the talent market, of course," Stefan said with a laugh. "I can't possibly recruit from the streets, no?"
"You sure are humorous, Mr. Jones," David laughed in response.
"Are you perhaps interested in this piece of land, Mr. Zucker?" Stefan asked.
