Domineering Lover novel Chapter 1287

Maximo, the nominal president of Oceanshade, has been quite down and out after his collision with Adrian's former secretary had been exposed.

Aleigha made her move on some most recent projects, taking the game up to Oceanshade.

Oceanshade had never had any products that could really cater to the consumers' substantial needs.

Even now that the company had put in painstaking efforts to transfer itself from a cybersecurity company to a construction company, the efforts, nonetheless, were flushed down the drain.

That was due to the fact that the construction market in City A had long been saturated, making every step Oceanshade tried to stride forward extremely hard.

Darien seemed to be very capable, but he was someone with a short-sighted vision and couldn't see the future.

The company under Adrian's name also involved projects about construction.

Aleigha sent someone from her network to take over a land in the distant suburbs to sell.

Yet since it was an open auction, there will be bidders.

The entry limit might be set by her man but she had already got it even before the news was released.

As soon as she released the news, Oceanshade came over and participated in the bidding.

The night before the bid.

Maximo met one of the company's participants in the bidding, who was Aleigha's pawn, a man of the Woods family.

After taking the chance and finally got close to Maximo, and after a few fussing about, the project manager revealed everything about the project to him.

Maximo, who had obtained the critical information, naturally had to go and meet Darien.

The whole project was going to be priced at around 200 million dollars yet the news Aleigha set out said 4 billion.

And when word traveled to Darien, the number turned up to 5 billion.

For Darien, 50 billion was almost half of his fortune. However, this project was the key project of this year.

After pondering over it for a while night, he managed to calculate how the initial investment was going to draw him enormous benefits in the near future.

Early the next morning, the funds were transferred into the company's account.

After getting this piece of land, he surely would have a lot more other plans for the land.

By then, Darien was firmly convinced that this piece of land would make him loaded.

As the bidding started, Aleigha's company participated in it and raised a rather low price.

Of course, Oceanshade would not let her win the bid easily. They raised the price to 4.9 billion dollars and got it.

Aleigha came out of the venue and met Maximo face to face.

"I assume I have you to thank for letting us get the land, Ms. Gardner."

"I heard that the land is intended to be used to develop the economic new area."

"Quite good luck, Maximo, and I'm sure capital played the important role in this as well. I won't be keeping you then, excuse me."

As soon as Aleigha got in the car, Adrian called.

"Darien spent 5 billion on that piece of garbage?" "Well, 5 billion is not really that much for him, is it?" "How did you manage to trick him into buying it anyway?"

"That is a secret."

Aleigha knew about the area being soon to be developed by the city government.

The problem was that the land beneath the surface was mostly sand, not solid soil.

It was improbable to have buildings constructed over that piece of land. Moreover, it was an air traffic control area, meaning that even if buildings were to be put there, it couldn't even reach more than 6-floor's height.

Darien, on the other hand, hadn't the first clue about all this.

And the only reason he never did any investigation was that he was too greedy and Maximo's anxious urge to get back on his feet.

They must be infuriated by now, knowing that they spent billions of dollars on a piece of garbage worth only millions.

Darien quickly held a meeting after getting the land. He responded to the government's request and prepared to begin three days later.
