104 Single Because of the Type of Person He is

When Braydon Neal heard that it was a copper mine, he suddenly lost interest.

After all, what he wanted was a spiritual stone mine, not a copper mine. This kind of thing was of no use to Braydon.

Louis Neal pushed the door open and entered. “Braydon, there’s something I want to discuss with you and Xandra.”

“Chairman, if there’s anything you need, just tell me!” Xandra Milton smiled.

Louis hesitated for a long time before finally making a decision. “I want the Neal Corporation to be listed!”

“That’s good news, I know some people from the Hansworth Securities Regulatory Commission. The process for the IPO approval can be sped up. With Neal Corporation’s financial statement, it will definitely not be a problem to go public.”

Xandra was the best at this kind of thing.

She was the president of the investment group in the Asia-Pacific region and was in charge of hundreds of billions of cash flow, so she was very proficient in such things.

Braydon smiled brightly and nodded in agreement.

He would be able to help with the Neal Corporation’s future development.

The company’s main business was still real estate development, and 90% of its energy was concentrated in Preston’s new district.

However, Braydon had already paved the way for the group. In the anti-gravity device alone, the Neal Corporation would invest in it with technology and reach a deep cooperation with the Starbright Manufacturing. It was mutually beneficial, and they would be able to have endless flows of cash.

In addition, Xandra and Braydon were personally handling the investment department, so there was no need to worry about cash flow.

If the Neal Corporation wanted to go public, they would have to submit the financial statements of the past three years to the Hansworth Securities Regulatory Commission for approval. Xandra would take over.

The three of them continued chatting in the office.

Preston mountains were a vast mountain range with dense forests. Under the reforestation policy implemented in the early years, the original ecology of Preston mountains had indeed been restored step by step.

On the periphery of Preston mountains, there was a separate villa area.

In addition, the environment here was beautiful. It was built along the mountain, and in the early morning, the crisp chirping of magpies could be heard. It was specially raised by the property management so that the owners could hear the magpies when they woke up in the morning. It had an auspicious meaning.

In addition, it was located in front of the Preston mountains, so the air was fresh and crisp. The lowest price of a villa here was tens of millions!

The purchasing power of the rich in Preston was not to be underestimated. They had all been bought out years ago, and there were many foreigners who bought them for vacation in the hot summer.

After all, some of the villas here were directly built on the side of the mountain to hide from the wind and gather Qi. It was very cool here in the hot summer, and the top of the mountain was surrounded by white fog.

In this villa area, a pair of siblings of the same age put on protective camouflage clothes and carried a big bag, ready to leave from the villa.

The girl’s long hair fell on her shoulders, and her cherry-like lips moved slightly. “Joseph, are you done? Hurry up!”

“I’m taking a sh*t! What’s the rush?!” Joseph Thomas was displeased.

The brother and sister often played around. Now that there were no classes on the weekend, they invited more than a dozen students to the Preston mountains for a picnic, and Heather Sage was one of them!

Heather was dressed in light gray sportswear, which complemented her slender long legs. She had a noble temperament as she lazily stretched her slim waist and yawned, “Are the two of you ready? Is it really a good idea to have everyone stare at your family’s huge villa?”

“Don’t think I don’t know that your big brother has two villas here, and he has given you the keys!” Xana Thomas rolled her eyes.

The group of people laughed and played around as they all gathered together.

There were 17 people in total.

The young man leading the group had an extraordinary bearing. His name was Zion Levin. He laughed heartily. “Alright, Heather, you and Xana should stop fooling around. Before we enter the mountains, I have some things to say. Follow my orders and don’t run around, understand?”

“Alright, alright. It’s not the first time we’re having a gathering outdoors. Let’s go!” Xana took out her phone to take a selfie and made a heart gesture, looking very happy.

Heather followed the group and said, “Xana, the TV station has been saying that Preston mountains are very dangerous these days. Let’s not go too far in.”

“Please, my stinky brother is a martial artist. If we encounter wild wolves, just let him beat them up!” Xana rolled her eyes.

The team of 17 people brought tents and other things into the green forest and mountains that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Weeds were growing all over the mountain, and everyone stepped on the yellow leaves. When they entered the forest, they could not help but be curious. Their group was scattered around, and they were doing all kinds of things.

“Xana, are you okay” Zion turned around and smiled.

“It’s none of your business even if we get into trouble!” Joseph retorted, not allowing Zion to get on his sister’s good side.

Apart from Freddie Yackley and Joseph, Zion was also one of the six major martial artists of the younger generation in Preston. He was studying in Preston University, but he was not born into one of the seven great families.

However, it was said that he came from a powerful background. His family’s connections extended all the way to the provincial capital, so he was quite popular among the young people in Preston.

Zion was neither embarrassed nor angry. He laughed and said, “Alright, everyone must be tired after having walked for such a long time. Let’s rest for half an hour.”

“I can finally rest. I’m so tired!” The other girls in the group complained.

Xana pouted and said, “Spoiled kids!”

“What did you just say?” A pretentious girl with long hair immediately got angry.

Joseph, who had always been stubborn, retorted, “You’ve only walked for 30 minutes and you’re already complaining that you’re tired. If you continue walking, you’ll be asking for death!”

“Joseph! You’re such a bully!” The long-haired girl, Lois Sears, was so angry that she almost cried.

The Thomas siblings rolled their eyes and did not care that Lois was angry.

“Joseph, Xana, don’t bully Lois!” Heather was instantly amused.

“Who bullied her? We came to the Preston mountains to play. It’s supposed to be an adventurous hiking trip. If you feel tired, you can still go back now.”

Joseph was really straightforward.

One could say that he was single because of the type of person he was. He was straightforward and not a guy who understood girls.

Joseph was a person who had no potential to be a bootlicker.

The students around them immediately came forward to comfort her. “Lois, don’t be angry. That guy is a bastard. There’s no point being angry at him.”

“Alright now. There’s something off with our surroundings!” Zion’s gaze was grave as he looked at the dense leaves around him.

Everyone had chosen a cool place to stop. After the cool air had cooled down, it felt a little more depressing.

Joseph also felt that something was off. He sniffed slightly, and he exchanged a look with Zion. They shouted in unison, “It’s the smell of blood!”

“What’s this? Don’t scare us, you two! Stop joking!” A tall and burly student felt his blood run cold.

The sissy boy who was accompanying Lois called out with a quack, “Come on, the forest is filled with strange smells. The wild beasts are hunting for food, so of course they’d drink blood and eat meat. Seriously, why are you guys making such a fuss?!”

What he said made sense.

Joseph and Zion had just let out a sigh of relief when they heard a scream. “Ahh, a body!”

Xana was shocked. She looked at the place where Lois was sitting. It was covered with thick leaves. She thought that it was a wooden stake, but it turned out to be half a corpse. There was only the upper part of the body; the lower part was missing.

His body was covered in blood, and his internal organs were already infested with worms.
