Chapter 48 Windows Street
“Loser, since you’re so capable and Master Joshua as well as Smiley Nick are your disciples, you should be able to easily handle the situation with Windows Street, right?” Brittany sarcastically jabbed at Daniel.
At the mention of Windows Street, Jessica immediately glared at Brittany and scolded, “Shut your mouth.
Don’t start trouble!”
Jessica’s reaction sparked Daniel’s curiosity, he felt there must be a significant issue with Windows. Street. He decided to ask about it and, if possible, resolve the matter. After all, his wife Jessica’s
concerns were his concerns as well.
“Windows Street? Is that the same piece of land Smiley Nick mentioned? The one TMO has been holding for three years without development? Is something amiss there?”
“There’s no need for you to inquire about Windows Street. You don’t need to be involved; you can’t solve that problem,” Jessica dismissed the question with a single sentence. She then turned to Brittany, “your are never to speak of Windows Street again! Our group’s primary task right now is the collaboration project with Healthy Land. We can set Windows Street aside for the time being. When the time is right, I
will take care of it.”
“But Jessica, we invested fifty billion to secure that prime spot on Windows Street in Delvin Hub. Fifty billion has been sitting there for three years without a single return. If we don’t address the Windows Street issue, the group will remain at a disadvantage. Our dealings with Healthy Land are still in the early
stages, which wont significantly enhance our group’s operational situation. The crisis facing TMO will not
be resolved until we kickstart the Windows Street project. All those big corporations and prominent
families collaborating with us from other places now assume The Matthews lack influence in Delvin Hub.
Otherwise, why haven’t we sorted out Windows Street yet?”
“I told you to stop talking!”
“I want to speak! Isn’t this loser the master of Master Joshua? Isn’t he Smiley Nick’s master too? Master Joshua leads Washington’s The Grants family, and Smiley Nick is a key figure in Delvin Hub as well. If
Daniel just tells them to help us out, the problem with Windows Street could immediately be resolved. Of
course, if his so–called ‘disciples‘ only accepted him as their master because of a lost bet, then I doubt
they will help us. In that case, indeed, the issue with Windows Street will remain unsolvable!”
Brittany was convinced that neither Joshua nor Nicholas would assist TMO with Windows Street. The
problem there was too significant–even if they wanted to help, it would come at a considerable cost.
“If you say another word, will you be happy to move back into that dormitory with rats and cockroaches
scurrying around?” Jessica threatened Brittany with a stern face before turning to Daniel. “Daniel, you performed well today. Windows Street doesn’t concern you; I’ll handle it. Don’t seek help from Master Joshua and Smiley Nick; they cannot do much about it.”
“It’s just Windows Street. It’s not like you’re asking me to buy Wall Street. I don’t need to ask for help. I can handle it myself!” Daniel retorted confidently.
“Heh!” Brittany let out a cold, mocking laugh. “You’re quite the blowhard. Do you think you can just talk
