Chapter 82 

Chapter 82 

Freya slowly extended two fingers

Two thousand dollars?Jackson asked

Freya whispered. No. 20 thousand dollars.” 

What kind of nightgown is it?Jackson asked

Freya pointed at the clothes on the balcony and said, The red silk nightgown in the middle.” 

Jackson looked over. It looks good.” 

Freya said, Mrs. Foster said that it was wrinkled.” 

Are you sure it’s not Elena but my mother who said that?Jackson still couldn’t believe it

Yes, I’m sure.” 

Okay. Give me Judy’s bank account.Jackson decided to return the money to Judy

He guessed that his mother was probably in a bad mood because she was too lonely

She was goodnatured and had never been harsh on the servants

I don’t have Judy’s bank account, Freya said helplessly

Call her. Also, ask her where my suit is.Jackson said

Freya let out a sigh. Judy’s phone was switched off. I called her yesterday and today, but her phone has been off.” 

Then call her again when you are free. When you get through, ask her for her bank account and send it to me.Jackson said

OkayFreya figured that Jackson was going to return the money that Judy had paid Mrs. Foster and cheered up

So, people should be brave and work hard to fight for what they want. What if they succeeded?she thought

I’m going on a business trip. Guys, please take care of my family,Jackson said

Alright. Mr. Foster, be careful on the way. I’ll help you pack up,Freya said

No need. I’m almost done.Now that they couldn’t get Judy on the phone, Jackson decided not to take that suit and went upstairs to take his suitcase down

Mr. Foster, I’ll carry it, Freya immediately said

No need. I can do it myself.Jackson pulled his luggage out of the door

Elmer was waiting in front of the car. When he saw Jackson, he immediately came over and placed his luggage into the 

trunk

After that, he started the car, heading to Milestone Village

The village was quite far away, and it took them more than three hours to reach their destination

The village was remote, surrounded by mountains, but the scenery was beautiful. Some of the trees in the mountains were lush even though it was winter

Jackson looked over and siw small waterfalls and red maples

There was a large crop field at the foot of the mountain. The crops had long been harvested. Golden stalks and piles of collected wheat could be seen everywhere

They also saw a few greenhouses in the field, with strawberries and mushrooms inside

Jackson came here to talk about cooperation with the villagers. He would provide better farming and planting techniques and funds, while the villagers needed to plant suitable crops for his agricultural production factory

As far as he knew, the Yost Group had come here to negotiate with the villagers, but because the villagers didn’t agree on the price, they hadn’t reached an agreement yet

After talking to him on the phone, Mr. Lynch, the head of Milestone Village knew that Jackson had arrived and hurried over. He shook hands with Jackson warmly and said, Mr. Foster, come on, go to our village to warm up. You must be tired after driving for so long. Our village is indeed quite remote.” 

It’s okay. The environment is good,” Jackson said

The current technology was so advanced that their phones could get signals even in remote mountain villages

If Jackson could turn back time, he wouldn’t promise his grandfather to work hard on expanding their family business. He

would take Vanessa to the small mountain village and settle down. He would be happy even if he had to live a life isolated from the world

When Mr. Lynch heard Jackson praise the village’s environment, he smiled and said, Yes, the environment is really good. Other than being a little poor, there’s nothing wrong with this place. There are 300 households in our village. More than 30 people are over 80 years old, and some of them are already in their 90s

Impressive!Elmer could not help but cry out

As they spoke, they arrived at Mr. Lynch’s office

Mr. Lynch led Jackson and Elmer to the stove and let them sit around it

The coal in the stove made the root especially warm

A village official poured coffee for Jackson and Eliner

Another one immediately went to prepare snacks and fruits for them

Mr. Lynch said, Shirley, I told Ronald’s wife Mona when I last met her that when Mr. Foster came over, he would stay at their house for a few days.” 

Shirley was also a village official. She immediately said, Yes, we were talking about this yesterday and were looking forward to Mr. Foster’s arrival. It’s already past two in the afternoon. Mr. Foster hasn’t had lunch yet, right? Why don’t we go to Ronald’s house now and talk while eating?” 

Thank you. We’ve had lunch,” Jackson said

He knew that it would be a long journey, so he and Elmer grabbed a bite at a small restaurant in town at eleven o’clock this morning

Alright, let’s chat here for a while and go to their place for dinner later.Shirley was all smiles

Mr. Lynch turned to Jackson. Mr. Foster, let’s discuss the project in my office for a while before dinner. You may go to bed early after you finish eating. I’ll take you to the fields and mountains to have a look tomorrow morning.” 

Thank you, Mr. Lynch,” Jackson said politely

He had just reached a cooperation agreement with another village last week. His technicians were negotiating with the villagers about the spring planting and would not be able to arrive until tonight

The competition was going on in the exhibition and conference center

After Vanessa handed over the design draft, the judges were very impressed and asked her many questions, like where her inspiration came from and which company she worked for now. They als 

expressed their anticipation for her performance  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

in the next round

Vanessa was very nervous at first. She heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the compliments from the judges

As soon as she came out, she saw her name on the large screen. It was a message congratulating her for passing the preliminary

Congratulations!William said with a smile

Thank you!Vanessa took his hand in a good mood

Let’s go pick up Danny and have a big meal,William said

But I have already taken up a lot of your time. You’re supposed to be in the office now,” Vanessa said

It’s okay. Someone is taking care of the company. Are you free in the next few days? I’m going to the countryside to inspect a base. Can you go with me?William asked

We are going to the countryside?” 

Vanessa was excited

Yeah.” 

How long will we be there?” 

About three days,William said

If everything went well, the agreement could be settled on the same day. But if the environment in the village was good, they could spend two more days there and have some fun. The local culture and customs different from those of the city might cheer Vanessa up a little

Okay, I’ll ask for leave from my supervisor, Vanessa sail

Anyway, as long as she could submit the design drafts on time, her boss would grant her leave

Okay,William replied

They went to pick up Danny for lunch

As soon as Danny saw them, he greeted them excitedly, Hi, Vanessa! Hi, William!” 

He had been learning with Ben and practicing hard for the past few days. Now, he could already understand some simple words and sentences, such as Hello, Happy New Year, Hello everyone, Happy, Happiness, Beautiful, and so on

Other than that, he understood it when the others talked about the names of animals and plants

It was just that he still couldn’t speak fluently. Pronunciation was relatively difficult for him

Anyway, he was much better than before

Danny, you are awesome!William praised Danny with a smile

Vanessa was so excited that her eyes turned red. She reached out to hug her brother and said emotionally, Danny, you’re amazing.” 

Vanessa, great!Danny gave Vanessa a thumbs up

William smiled and said. Yes, your sister is awesome too. She passed the competition today. She will pass every round after that.” 

The competition will be very fierce in the following rounds,Vanessa said

William touched her head as he comforted her, Relax. We don’t expect much. Yvonne didn’t even pass the first round of the previous preliminary competition, but everyone in the family rewarded her. You’re already better than her.” 

Come on.” 

William smiled. “Alright. Let’s go eat. We’ll pack our luggage later and go to the village to have a look.”
