Ana didn''t bother to say more, hanging up right away.


    Olivia noticed she was drenched in sweat. After checking the time, she realized it was only 8:00 PM.


    Feeling sore, she rose from the bed and switched on the TV.


    Tyler appeared on the screen immediately.


    Dressed in a ck suit, he exuded elegance and handsomeness before the camera. His posture was


    erect, disying maturity andposure in every gesture.


    As he shook hands with a viger, his sophistication as an investor remained evident, yet his smile was


    humble and easygoing.


    Reflecting on his behavior toward her a few hours earlier, Olivia contrasted it with his demeanor on the


    screen.


    Though she understood he was merely projecting an image to gain the trust and support of the locals,


    she was charmed by him.


    Undoubtedly, he instilled a sense of security in people.


    The event was covered by all local media outlets. Olivia realized it wasn''t ideal that she was asleep in


    her hotel room when she was expected to attend as Mrs. Harris. Ana''s reprimand brought her back to


    reality.


    Oddly, she felt better now. Turning off the TV, she headed to the bathroom, eager for a hot shower and


    a change of clothes.


    The site visit continued until 10:00 PM.


    On the way back to the hotel, Tyler instructed Cami, "Start getting signatures from the vigers


    tomorrow."


    Cami was taken aback by his haste. "Isn''t it premature? They may not be convinced yet."


    Gazing out at the darkness beyond


    the window, Tyler replied, "I don''t


    want this to drag on. I want to conclude it as soon as possible. Offer thempensation. The first


    signer will receive two properties in the city center, the second one a single property, and the third a


    car. Those who signter will receive luxury appliances."


    Certainly, such incentives were hard to resist. Tyler estimated he could persuade 80% of them-the


    remaining holdouts, who had


    opposed the project from the outset, would prove more challenging.


    Cami was anxious, pondering whether to address her concern.


    How could Tyler not grasp her thoughts?


    He uttered coldly, "We can''t offer more to those holdouts, just the basicpensation. Giving them too


    much hassle isn''t worth it. This is the prime time. Let''s see if they''ll cooperate."


    "Understood, sir. I''ll handle it meticulously. I''ll arrange for a meeting with the township government."


    After his brief reply, Tyler sank into contemtion.


    His mind remained fixed on the project until Adam swung open the hotel door, jolting him back to


    reality.


    Yet, he stayed seated in the car.


    Observing him from outside, Cami couldn''t fathom his thoughts.


    Only after a few moments did he step out, rubbing his temples, and headed to the lobby.

    Catching up to him, she whispered as they entered the elevator, "Shall I check on Ms. Olivia, sir? She''s


    alone in her room."


    Tyler remained silent, allowing the elevator to ascend.


    Upon reaching the 23rd floor, he instructed, "Go check on her."
