However, the Harbor City government

had been generous enough to sell it to JW Company now without even disclosing the price. Evidently, the Harbor City government sincerely welcomed JW

Company to invest in Harbor City.

As for the third article, that was even weirder.

By right, it should belong in the Harbor

City government's market

administration. Why had it been included i

n the agreement?

Soon, the people of Harbor City

understood why.

A flurry of investigations started soon

after the press conference.

Everyone in the real estate and rubber

industry became subjected to thorough investigations.

The first to be investigated were those

who had conducted sales with Fongroup, Atticus Group, and Hope Group not too long ago.

Investigations conducted by the Harbor City government revealed that in a large number of these property transactions had been sold illegally and at a price significantly lower than the market value. Thus, fines came one after the other.

Once they did that, and when connected t

o the last article in the agreement, it painted a vivid picture of the Harbor City government's attitude on the matter. They were doing this to target Fongroup, Hope Group, and Atticus Group.

They were doing it in plain sight, without

even bothering to try and cover up their tracks.

Most of Harbor City's millionaires relied heavily on real estate, so the Harbor City

government's investigations did not affect the market too greatly, as their investigations were targeted at Hope Group and Fongroup. However, things were different when they turned to the

rubber industry, an industry that Atticus

Group dominated. While the Harbor City

government conducted thorough

investigations into Atticus Group's illegal activities, they also brought to light prior restrictions on entering the rubber industry.

Countless people sensed a conspiracy behind the Harbor City government's tough attitude.

Just then, Wendy made an appearance at Spencer Boyle's home.

The Boyle family resided in a mansion on top of a mountain. Here, Wendy received a n enthusiastic welcome from all members of the Boyle family.

Everyone knew who stood behind this woman, and that person was also who the Harbor City people, had chosen to place their bets on. Thus, once Wendy arrived, the Boyle family gave her the best treatment possible and called for everyone who could make it to meet her.

Among them was the man who Wendy

had set her sights on, Spencer's second

son-in-law, Zed Walters.

"The Boyle family holds a very special standing amidst Harbor City's millionaires, You're the leader in the

shipbuilding industry, but as the economy and market developed over the years, the shipbuilding industry has fallen into bad shape. Coupled with the increase in popularity of the real estate market, the Boyle family has become much less influential.

"However, we must never ignore the families who usually maintain a low profile and only showcase their powers during the most critical moments. They possess much more knowledge than your average millionaire.

"The strongest and most powerful ones in this family are not Stephen's direct offspring, but his sons-in-law instead. Each one is more powerful than the one before.

"Wendy, when you meet them, you must establish a collaboration with their second son-in-law, who's also in charge of Nine Dragon Corporation. It'll be much easier to carry out our plans if he works with us."

When Wendy recalled what Jasper had told her before coming, she smiled at Mr. Boyle and Zed, who was standing beside him, as she said, "Mr. Boyle, Mr. Walters. The reason for my visit this time is that I'm hoping to utilize the piece of land at Sharp Promenade that I bought from the Harbor City government. We hope to work with the various shopping malls under Nine Dragon Corporation's name and construct the largest and most luxurious shopping complex in the entirety of Terra. I've even come up with a name. It'll be named Harbour Palace!"
