Seeing this, Lily had nothing to say and could only follow closely behind.

Fabian has been doing very well lately. The new tender event was just for show, and the project was handed directly over to him.
Those who alienated or harassed him for debt repayments or terminated cooperation with him had changed their attitude and come to curry favor with him. However, he put on airs instead.
Standing before the vast expanse of the premise, he talked nonstop on the phone. “Hey, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I’m simply too busy. You know I’m engaged with a huge project and have no time!
“Yeah, I don’t mean to look down on you… However, Mr. Will, you said differently when you asked me for money. Am I not trying to make money to pay you back? I know the economy is bad, and it’s not easy for everyone, isn’t it? Come on, that’s not what I meant…”
Putting on a mocking tone on purpose, he enjoyed hearing Mr. Will beg him because the man had been arrogant.
With one hand on the hip, Fabian acted like a pompous man.
Even his wife could not take it. Standing aside, Maria curled her lip and looked toward Rhea. “Look at how big-headed your dad has become! What’s he so smug about? He only just landed the project. We don’t even know if it’s going to make money!”
“National projects are lucrative, and it’s not difficult to make money from them. The only difference is how much,” Rhea stated flatly, without emotion.
“That’s true!” Although she sounded disagreeable, Maria was also in a good mood.
