She racked her brain for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer, so she decided to focus on the matter of getting the island for now. In any case, when it came to swindling Yvette Grant, their goals were aligned.
Shirley Thorne owned an island herself, so she knew that the price of such properties could fluctuate wildly and was heavily dependent on local policies. That was why she wanted to borrow the expertise of the richest man in the country, to avoid being duped by Yvette Grant.

What was worse, she had no idea when she had offended the great magnate or why he was suddenly so angry.
Shirley Thorne couldn't help but feel wronged, and the look she shot Ethan Grant was filled with reproach.
