The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 554

Wyatt appeared indifferent, but Maya, despite her efforts to remain composed, was growing increasingly anxious on the inside.

You see, the one million she lost just now was borrowed from various loan sharks.

While she boasted about her annual salary of three million, that was just bragging. In reality, she only earned a few dozen thousand in salary each year. The remaining two million was acquired through other means.

No way!

I must gamble with that country bumpkin!

I must win one billion from the country bumpkin!

Wyatt must lend me that one billion!

No, it shouldn't be considered a loan! It's money that must be given to me! I must have both his one billion and the country bumpkin's one billion in my hands.

That way, I'll have two billion!

Maya's words surprised Wyatt slightly.

It seems this woman isn't easy to deal with.

She not only has the appearance of a seductress but also the intelligence of one.

Wyatt wasn't someone who could easily be taken advantage of. While he could afford the one billion, he certainly wouldn't hand it over for free.

Therefore, with an innocent smile, he inquired, "Maya, you mentioned facilitating a collaboration between Harmony Group and The Perkins Organization. What kind of collaboration are we talking about?"

Maya's claim of a two-billion-dollar investment was exaggerated; she was just bragging. The actual investment for the tourism town was likely around fifty million dollars.

As for profits, how could there be fifty billion? At most, it would be five billion!

However, for Wyatt, five billion in profit was quite substantial.

After all, the real estate market was in decline, and his Harmony Group was already incurring losses. The days of easily building a tower and making millions were long gone.

The reason he organized this class reunion was because every one of his classmates had value to him. Inviting Maya was because he had his eyes on the tourism town project.

Now that Maya had brought up the tourism town, Wyatt had to seize the opportunity and secure this woman.

"Maya, the Golden Hill tourism project you mentioned, I'm aware of it. I've looked into that vacation town as well. According to my understanding, the investment isn't as high as what you've mentioned, is it?"
