Edward's POV.

(Delenda was waiting me outside the office.)

Good morning Delenda, it's really a nice area here with a lovely view.

Delenda: That's why I bought the mountain and invested on it. Anything particular in your mind or do you want to see what I have?

How about we have a cup of coffee in your office and talk about business there.

Delenda: Forgive my manners mister Edward, accept my apologies for not inviting you to my office, it will be a pleasure.

(we went inside her office and we had nespresso from a machine in her office.)

Delenda: How much is your budget?

There's no limit.

Delenda: You are kidding right?

I'm not.

Delenda: We have cottages which are worth more than three million dollars.

I can't see were the problem is.

Delenda: What else do you do in your life Mister Edward.

I am the president of King group.

Delenda: Really?! Your company is an ultimate beneficial Owner in most of the companies here, it's such an honor to meet you in person mister Edward.

It's a pleasure meeting you too.

Delenda: Your assistant, Tom, called me few days ago to buy shares in my company and I'm waiting him to give me a good offer, he is making your company a major shareholder in every company in the US.

He will, don't worry, Tom is a productive guy. let's get back to business, shall we.

Delenda: Sure thing, Let's start from the top of the list then.

"She took me to the biggest and most expensive cottage in the mountain."

So Delenda, how much is the price for this cottage?

Delenda: This cottage is the most expensive one in this area, it costs 3.5 million dollars.

Can I see it from the inside?

Delenda: Off course, I'm going to give you general information about it, when you have any questions don't hesitate to cut me off while I'm speaking.

Delenda: Draped over a sprawling 135 acre lot with breathtaking panoramic views, sits this stunning Italian inspired estate designed by L.C company. Consisting of over 14,500sf of living space, nearly 4500sf of balcony & patio space, and over 2,650sf of indoor garage space. You have your own land not like other cottages, which means more than the quarter of this mountain is for this cottage.

L.C is one of my companies too, I didn't know that we design in this state and this is my first time seeing one of my designs.

Delenda: I don't blame you mister Edward, a busy man like you doesn't have time to know everything about his companies.

Do you accept cheques?

Delenda: I sure do.

I hand her a cheque with the whole amount, in the top of the Cheque it said. Mister Edward king the president of King group.

How many days do we need to register it to my name Delenda?

Delenda: Two days Mister Edward.

Two days it is.

Delenda: If you want you can stay here from now sir.

I'm good, thanks.

Delenda: I have a question, if you don't mind me asking.

Ask.

Delenda: Why are you traveling by yourself, using a small caravan like what you have now?

I want to clear my mind, I had busy days recently and I found this is a good way to clear my mind and I'm using a small caravan because it's hard to drive a big one..

Delenda: Two days ago, I saw a picture for you with the governor of Washington DC, she is so lucky to have you, women will do anything to take her place.

We are just friends, it was fake news.

Delenda: Really!! I thought that you are dating or something, can I invite you for another cup of coffee in my office.

Unfortunately, I can't accept your invitation, because I have something else to do in this journey.

As you want mister Edward, it was nice talking to you and meeting you in person.

Have a nice day, my lawyer will call you for the paper work.

I left this to continue my journey. I went to visit the first land I bought to grow marijuana, it's been four years since I bought it, the credit goes to this land for what I became today.

"When I arrived the supervisor of this land came to greet me."

Hello Mister Edward, I am Latezee the supervisor of this project.

We call it a project now? I used to call it the land of miracles.

Latezee: You can call it what ever you want mister Edward, it's your land, land of miracles it is then.

How's everything is going Latezee? Do you face any troubles with the workers?

Latezee: Workers are good sir and they obey orders.

Okay, What about marijuana, do we have good stuff?

Latezee: The best type in the US sir, three months ago we started a new type of marijuana, it is Cannabis Sativa, this type increases the income for more than sixteen percent because it's perfect for people who like to smoke. Most cancer patients prefer this type to get comfortable when they have chemotherapy, we are selling it in thirteen states, in two weeks we will start shipping our goods to Canada, we made contracts with nine hospitals in Canada to buy our goods for their patients.

Great, what about workers? Do they have a place to sleep?

Latezee: Yes, all of workers are from another states, they don't have houses here, we have two hundreds employees here so we stay in one star hotel near to this land a hundred rooms, two employees in each room.

How long have you been working with me?

Latezee: Almost two years sir.

You are managing this land very well Latezee, you should have a promotion for this brief because you deserve it. My assistant will inform you about the promotion soon.

Latezee: I appreciate your visit Mister Edward, and thanks for the promotion.

After this short visit I went to my first house, which I bought four years ago.

When I arrived, I found out that I don't have the key, so I sit in front of the door on the porch and remembered the good days I had with Lucy here, she is really a good friend.

Lucy's POV.

I went downstairs to ask if Edward told Roger about his location or any news about him.

Did you hear anything from Edward Mister Roger?

Roger: No I didn't darling, why?

It's been three days since he left us, I tried to call him so many times but he changed the SIM card, I couldn't reach him, I'm really worried about him.

Roger: Don't worry darling I think he did this to clear his mind. Relax.

I can't relax =, I feel guilty for how I treated him, I'm just a stranger, I can't act like I'm a part in his life.

Roger: Don't say that Lucy, you are a family member, the three of us are lucky to have you, and you are carrying my grandson, and you did a favor to us when you decided to keep it. you can't say or think you are a stranger.

I appreciate that.

Roger: Go have some rest darling, it's not good for the baby to be stressed.

I should contact Edward to see if he is doing well or not first, I will try to contact him by email. See you later.
