Will quickly said, "Please calm down, everyone. This decision is made by those above. I''m just the head of the department and can''t make the decision here I''m afraid putting yourints to me is pointless."
That was when Will nced at Frank, and Frank understood immediately.
Will wanted to help them, but someone higher up in the pecking order meddled.
"Drenam Limited? Have you heard of them before?" Frank asked Helen, ncing at the fortyish Mr. Woss who did not look like a business owner at all.
"No. They might not exist... Even if they did, they can''t be a major yer," Helen said confidently.
After all, she had done her homework-she could list out everypany in Zamri that had some extent of influence, and she had definitely never heard of Drenam Limited.
And with Helen and Kallum''s wager still in effect, they could not allow thend lots to fall into someone else''s hands.
Frank whipped out his phone and called Trevor Zurich right then. "Yeah, I''d like you to check thispany called Drenam Limited... It''s probably a constructionpany."
Meanwhile, an exasperated Will called for calm from upstairs.
"Please, everyone-settle down! Anyway, I hereby announce that the thirdnd lots go to... Mr. Woss of Drenam Limited!"
Pandemonium ensued.
The Zamri bigwigs would have been fine with a fellow major yer taking thend plots. But who could stay calm when everynd lot was given to some smallpany they had never even heard of?!
"This is too much!"
"What the hell are you ying at?!"Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Exactly!" One of the bigwigs turned toward Mr. Woss right then and snapped, "Mr. Woss, mind telling us who you actually are, and who''s behind you?"
Mr. Woss simply smiled and never answered the questions.
Ring...
Frank''s phone vibrated just then, and he answered.
"I''ve got said.
Lawrence," Trevor the Sidonimited is a subsidiary owned by Gene Pearl richest man of the East Coast."
"Gene Pearce?" Frank eximed, taken aback.
"Yes, Mr. Lawrence. He''s quite rich, and he''s been expanding his businesses into Zamri recently."
"I see..." Frank breathed a sigh of relief, as he actually thought for a et t that the Lionhearts et of Sif were getting involved. S That would certainlyplicate things.
Trevor then added, "By the way, Mr. Lawrence I''ve found out that Gene recently bought and built a mansion in Zamri. I heard that he''s ill and needs a proper ce to rest and restand
recover."
"I see."
Frank smiled, as Trevor''s information gave him an idea.
Illness? That certainly made things easier.
Frank would have trouble finding a solution immediately if it was something else, but illness was his expertise.
If Gene was willing to buynd and build a mansion for the sake of his health, he would certainly not mind giving it up too!
And if Frank cures him, Gene would definitely not be stingy when he asked.
With that in mind, Frank tugged on Helen''s hand. "Come on. It''s pointless to stay here."
"We''re leaving?" Helen eximed, puzzled. "There are two morend lots."
Frank then exined, "There are fivend lots on lease, but Kallum Gaetz asked for three. We''re one short either way." Helen frowned and sighed. "So... we''re giving up?"
