Chapter 605

Julian laughed and said, “Matt, this really isn’t my forte. We’ll do whatever you ask us to and I’ll definitelysupport you.”

Tiger nodded repeatedly in agreement as well. “I’ll definitely support you too, Mr. Larson. That won’t bean issue.”

“How about you, Alaric?”

Alaric chuckled. “Mr. Larson, I came just to relay my Old Master’s message. He has made himself clearthat he’ll support you in everything you do.”

Upon hearing that, Tiger grinned and announced, “That’s great! Since everyone agrees, there’s nothingelse to say so we’ll just go ahead with this project.”

Matthew nodded in delight while looking at Tiger. “Tiger, I’ve asked you to replace out the reason that thisproject was called to an end. Have you found anything?”

Tiger nodded in reply. “I’ve investigated and it seems like it’s related to the two villages nearby. Accordingto the rumors, the villa area occupied a pond on the mountain. In order to build a man-made lake, theydredged the pond and expanded to make it a dozen times bigger. Not long after, the villagers living onthe foot of the mountain got a strange illness, causing three fatalities while over ten villagers collapsedfrom the illness. The worst part is, there is no cure. The villagers say that the disaster is caused by thedisrupted Feng Shui due to the expansion of the pond. On the other hand, the official research explainsthat the strange illness appeared due to the contaminated water at the lower areas that is caused by theconstruction of the villa. Hence, the villa project was halted.”

Julian frowned. “People still believe in Feng Shui in this era? These people are obviously spewingnonsense!”

Meanwhile, Matthew kept quiet. After he inherited the jade pendant, he gained some insights of theseincidents such as what had happened to Timothy, which was similar to this incident. Then, Matthew said,“Since we’re all here now, let’s check on the situation.”

With Tiger as the driver, the few of them rushed to the villa area. Located at the South Suburb ofEastcliff, it was a place surrounded by mountains and rivers. This area hadn’t been developed but itwould be the focus of Eastcliff development in the future.

Receiving the news beforehand, the Lach Family bought this land to develop it into a high-end villa area.Not only that, there was a large piece of land in the front which would be developed into a housing estatein the future.

Someone predicted that once this villa area was developed and the nearby facilities were furnished, thisplace would definitely surpass the luxury houses in Eastcliff. Perhaps it would rank just below LakesideGarden and because of that, the investment of this villa area was extremely huge back then.Unfortunately, the Lach Family almost shattered after Young Master Lach was sent to jail. Now, theseinvestments were nothing but a fantasy. Therefore, it was a great bargain for Matthew to own it for abillion.

Meanwhile, the few of them made a round around the villa area and the man-made lake that was locatedright at the center. According to Tiger’s introduction, this man-made lake was actually a pond in thebeginning, spanning over ten meters wide. But now, it had been expanded into a lake that had a width ofa few hundred meters. This man-made lake had indeed made the villas grander.

As soon as they arrived at the lakeside, they spotted a large crowd standing beside the lake whilediscussing and pointing at something. Those people wore suits and leather shoes, looking like significantfigures.

When Tiger drove the car over there, he recognized a few familiar faces from afar, namely Leo, Graceand Elaine. Since the last student reunion, Leo’s company and their Wellness Herbary’s business wereruined. On top of that, rumor had it that Leo was fired as well and no one knew where he went after that.No one expected that they would bump into them at this place.

Elaine was standing beside a man in his forties and snuggling against him, seemingly intimate with him.On the other side, Leo walked in front of them and was introducing something to everyone.

When Matthew and the rest approached him, Leo could be heard saying, “To be honest, all of you arevery lucky because Master Hanson seldom appears in public. Therefore, it’s your greatest honor to beable to meet him today!”
