Chapter 131

Presently, many students were gathered in groups as they chattered away happily.

Haylan glanced around and after not managing to find Perry and Noah, he frowned slightly with worry.

Why were the two of them not there yet! Could something have gone wrong?

He found a quieter place to sit down before taking out his phone, and sending a message to Noah. [I’m here. Where are you?]

About five minutes later. Noal texted his reply. [I’m in the subway. I’ll be there in a while.]

[Where is Perry? Is he with you?]

[He has some family matters, so he won’t be coming today.]

[What happened?]

It’s hard to explain through text, I’ll tell you when we meet.

[Okay:]

Haylan frowned slightly as he put down his phone.

His instincts told him that Perry might be in trouble.

However, since he didn’t have all the details, he couldn’t be sure. He could only wait for Noah to arrive before doing anything.

He raised his head and looked around. He realized that many people were surrounding Corey like stars surrounding the moon. They were fawning over him and trying to get in his good graces.

“Mr. Lanton, I heard that your two houses are going to be demolished. They’re seven floors in total. If the demolition takes place, you’ll be a millionaire.”

“Congratulations, Mr. Lanton.”

“When I first met Mr. Lanton in high school, I already felt that he was not an ordinary person. He would definitely become a dragon among men in the future.”

“Mr. Lanton, come on, let’s have a drink.”

Those people smiled and looked at Corey with envy and respect.

Corey’s family was not very rich, but he had a local rural household registration of Lightdom City. The compensation for the demolition of the two houses was as high as 20 million dollars.

As long as the demolition of the houses took place, Corey would become a millionaire with a bright future.

“Don’t do that. The matter has just been finalized. Our family hasn’t even signed the contract. It’s all nonsense. It’s not for definite yet.” Corey chuckled and waved his hand humbly.

In fact, he was overjoyed.

Although his family didn’t get the money, his village was indeed included. As long as the developer began their work, their family could obtain at least tens of millions of dollars as compensation. They could also obtain shares of large corporations. and three houses located in the city center.

Such an asset was enough for him to go all the way to the top of the pyramid.
