“What did Gwyn say?” Julie asked hurriedly.

Mary was still nervous and waved her hands. “No, no, he didn’t say anything.”

Then Mary stood up. “I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I’ll go back first. See you next time.”

Before Julie and Bob could react, Mary had already fled.

Seeing that Bob was thinking about something and did not get up to chase after Mary, Julie was a little anxious. “Should we chase after her? Mary must know the inside story!”

Bob shook his head. “Gwyn must have told her not to tell us. Otherwise, why would Mary not tell us?”

Bob was convinced that Mary still held affection for him and would prioritize his interests. Furthermore, the more Mary tried to conceal it, the stronger Bob’s belief became that Gwyn was privy to inside information.

Especially when he thought about Gwyn’s successful project and the doubled growth of his several plots, he felt uncomfortable.

As children from the same prominent family, he was constantly ostracized because he was a bastard. On the other hand, Gwyn was entrusted with everything by his family as the only son. If he also had such support, he might not necessarily be inferior to Gwyn.

Didn’t Gwyn use the information to predict some things?

In the next few days, Mary didn’t go out at all.

Fortunately, because of what happened with Tracey, she and Gwyn moved to the new villa. The servants at the old mansion said that Julie went over almost every morning to find Mary.

However, no one told her that Mary and the others were no longer in the villa.

Mary’s phone was bombarded with messages, so she had no choice but to turn it off.

Bob had a tendency not to believe Mary when she was too nervous to convey her message.

He was naturally suspicious, which was why he didn’t blindly follow Gwyn’s plan to take over Land No. 6. However, his cautious nature allowed him to rely more on his own judgment.

Mary looked at her watch. It was already 11 p. m., but Gwyn was still in the study. She went over to take a look curiously.

Mary was a little surprised when she saw the documents on Gwyn’s desk.

Gwyn was actually looking at the land for the next auction and even emphasized the No. 9 plot. This was the ‘trap’ that Mary wanted Bob to fall into.

“Gwen, you can’t buy this land! Absolutely not!” Mary said anxiously, her tone approaching a command.

Gwyn frowned and looked up. When she saw Mary’s anxious gaze, Gwyn’s eyes darkened.

He knew that Mary and Bob had met, but he didn’t know what they had said because the people following them were too far away.

Now that he saw Mary in such a hurry, could it be that Bob wanted to bid for this piece of land as well? Was Mary directing him to pave the way for Bob?

However, Mary was very anxious. She could not let Gwyn buy this piece of land.

The land’s location seemed favorable, particularly with the opening of the northwest region, causing the land value in the area to rise. However, it wouldn’t take long before the land became a complete wasteland.

Only the land being auctioned belonged to a company, whereas the large areas of land on both sides belonged to the country. In the near future, both sides planned to become a garbage dump and a cemetery. Land No. 9 was then considered a ‘Prosperity Land’!

Mary recalled that in her previous life, the company she invested in went bankrupt due to this land, and it was going to happen soon.

Seeing Gwyn’s expression, Mary knew that he had misunderstood again. But she really didn’t know how to tell Gwyn about the situation of this land. She couldn’t possibly say that she could predict the future, right?

“Gwyn, listen to me. This piece of land is really unsuitable. You have to believe me. Whoever buys it will definitely be unlucky!” Mary really didn’t know how to explain. She could only think of acting coquettishly. Anyway, she definitely couldn’t let Gwyn’s family buy this piece of land.

Gwyn was a little hesitant. Mary did not seem to be lying, but this piece of land was indeed worth investing in.

The plot was situated in the northwest region, which, despite being a little far from the city center, was expected to appreciate in value as the area was developed. Furthermore, the location was ideal for constructing upscale villas.

Gwyn already had plans to continue developing it, but she didn’t expect Mary to be so against it.

Gwyn rubbed her aching temples. “Mary, I need an explanation. Why can’t it be here?”

As expected, whatever Mary was worried about came.

Ultimately, Mary decided to put all her trust in one source. “I had a dream. The gods told me that the feng shui of this land is bad. Whoever buys it will definitely be in big trouble!”

Mary comforted herself with a tinge of guilt. Since she was given a second chance in life, she knew what happened in her previous life. She believed that this could be considered a revelation from God.
