Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid novel Chapter 64

“Emily, you're the fifth person who has come after us, offering to buy that particular plot of land.”

“That particular plot of land is nothing but a plot of wasteland. What's going on? Why is everyone coming after that plot of land today?”

Emily replied, “Oh! It's nothing!”

“I'm sure you know that my mom has been expelled by Daniel from the hospital. She has nothing to do recently and wishes to buy that plot of land to start her own farm.”

Adam had his doubts and told her, “Sigh! You're late! We've already sold off the land to someone else!”

Emily was disappointed, “Oh. Who did you sell it to? For how much was the plot of land sold?”

Adam told her, “We sold it off to Lacey for a million.”

“What?” Emily got worked up all of a sudden. “You sold it off to Lacey for a million? Fool! A bunch of fools!”

Adam was irritated when he heard Emily's words. “Emily, who exactly are you referring to?”

“A ten-hectare plot of land in exchange for a million! It's a good deal!”

“Deal? You have no idea how you have been set up by them!” Emily scolded Adam.

“I'll tell you what's going on. The Schneider family has another huge project which involves that particular plot of land of yours. It's a project worthy of ten billion!”

“That plot of land would have cost at least five million as of now.”

“Haha! Aren't you a fool to get rid of it for a million?”

Arghh!

Adam could barely catch his breath when he heard what Emily said.

Five million! At least five million! We just lost five million!

Jeremy's face turned pale as well.

He thought they were the ones who got a deal, but they were the one who had made a loss instead.

In fact, it was a huge loss for them.

He clenched his teeth, “Damn it! Lacey and her family are a bunch of cunning b****! How dare they set us, seniors, up!”

“Dad! Let's go get the legal title back!”

Adam glared at Jeremy because of how naïve he was. “Nonsense! The legal title's ownership has been transferred to Lacey! She's currently the rightful owner of that plot of land!”

Jeremy clenched his teeth. “Damn it! She's such a mean girl!”

“Dad! They don't deserve to be part of the Hinton family! Let's expel them from the family!”

Adam clenched his teeth. “Hmph! We will not let them off the hook easily!”

Meanwhile, Emily felt as awful as Jeremy and Adam.

She couldn't get her hands on the plot of land. Instead, Lacey and Zeke had got ahead of her.

Emily was irritated.

She initially wanted to generate a fortune through that particular plot of land. Eventually, she would form a company with her mother.

However, she knew it was hopeless. She would never achieve her plan anymore.

All Emily could do was to establish a clinic as instructed by her mother.

She called Madeleine Clemons, her mother.

“Mom, remember your plan about the clinic? I'll support you with everything I have.”

“Great!” Madeleine replied, with a bright smile on her face.

“Do you need my help? Have you sorted out everything regarding the required procedure to establish a clinic?” asked Emily.

“I'm at the last stage as of now. All it takes is another few visits to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau before everything is in place,” replied Madeleine.

“Business will be tough in the initial phase, but don't worry! I'm sure I'll be able to build my customer base through my participation in the Global Medical Association Forum. Our business will be great after that!”

Emily asked, “About the forum... Are you sure you will be able to take part in it?”

“I have already talked to Susan beforehand. She promised me to connect you to the prominent doctor she told me about during the forum.”

“Don't worry. I have already gotten my hands on the invitation card through an ex-leader of mine. Everything will be fine.”

“Emily, remember to get in touch with Susan throughout this period. After all, she's the only one we can count on to reach the prominent doctor. We need her connection to save your vegetative father.”

“Mm. I'll meet her for dinner tonight. I'll try my best to get the doctor's contact from her.”
