Chapter 453: Chapter 447: How Big Can A House Be?

Translator: 549690339

“Why does Finn Lewis call Great Lewis Uncle? Do they have family ties?”

“Unlikely, isn’t it? If they are related, Great Lewis wouldn’t have looked so surprised just now, right?”

“I think so too. But have you considered that Great Lewis seemed genuinely taken aback when Finn Lewis arrived? I heard Finn Lewis was coming to talk business with Great Lewis. If it was just business, would he really have shown up in person on his birthday like this? I think there must be more to this.”

“Or could it be about Great Lewis’s daughter? I bet you didn’t know. She was previously engaged to Yves King of the King family. But then she was said to have run away, against the marriage, with Yves King chasing after her all the way to Celeston City. Yves King returned alone and even ended up hospitalized. The King family said he had a car accident, but who knows what really happened? Given the nature of the King family, it’s unlikely they would have just let this go. Seems like there might be some intrigue going on here!”

“Exactly, or else Finn Lewis wouldn’t be calling Great Lewis uncle, right? That Lewis family daughter sure know how to pick ’em!”

“But, it seemed that Finn Lewis declared his affection for a female celebrity called Kay Lee during a press conference, didn’t he?”

“Bro, surely you don’t think that a young man like Finn Lewis, the world’s richest man at 25, would only have one woman?”

“So, you are seeing someone else too?”

“Can’t just go around spreading such words.”

“Come on, we all know what’s what. Why pretend?”

“Hahaha…”

The discussion outside went off track, while inside Great Lewis’s study room, where only Great Lewis, Emma Lewis, and Finn Lewis were present. Emma Lewis was there for a reason. Even though she didn’t seem to have anything to do with Finn Lewis, it was easier to bring her into the conversation as an ordinary friend.

“Finn Lewis, did you really come to discuss business with me?” Once inside the room, Great Lewis got straight to the point.

“Of course! Actually, it’s more of a project than a business. Uncle Lewis, you know where I’m currently staying, right? I bought a villa, but I’m not quite satisfied with some parts of it. I’ve heard that you own a great construction company. I thought maybe I could entrust this project to you. Emma and I are friends, and having you be a part of this would make me feel much more at ease.” Finn Lewis quickly nodded in agreement.

“I see. Of course, that’s no problem. But I’m curious, how big would you like the villa to be? Like the mansion I have here?” Great Lewis immediately asked with a smile.

“Hmm, roughly around the same size. I have a design here. Uncle Lewis, you take a look and let me know how long it will take to complete.” Finn Lewis said, handing over a flash drive to Great Lewis.

Finn Lewis hadn’t really looked at what was on the flash drive. Olivia Thatcher had designed it and told him to expect a pleasant surprise. He agreed to have the mansion built based on the design without looking at it. Needless to say, he was curious about what sort of mansion Olivia had come up with – sci-fi themed? Landscape style? Or maybe a castle?

“Alright, let’s take a look. Luckily, I have the required video playback equipment right here in my study.” Great Lewis received the flash drive with curiosity and plugged it into his computer. It was night, so they turned off the lights, closed the curtains, and then Great Lewis finally opened the file from the flash drive.

At this point, Finn Lewis was surprised by the level of professional equipment Great Lewis’ study room was equipped with, suited to his occupation in construction, including the likes of projectors and much more. Once Great Lewis found and opened the design file from the flash drive, it started with a file resembling a PPT. Following the blank wall appeared a huge panoramic image, however, it did not seem like a mansion at all.

“Is this the geographical location? Where exactly is it located?” Asked Great Lewis, looking at the image somewhat puzzled.

“There is a text description below.” Finn Lewis indicated the caption below the image. The picture showed a massive view featuring a marsh, forest, lake, and desert. Finn Lewis immediately read the caption aloud:

“…The proposed villa area is expected to cover an area of 35 kilometers from east to west, and 28 kilometers from north to south, with a total area of 980 square kilometers. It will feature a lake, forest, marsh, and desert, establishing a complete ecological protection area…” The three people in the room were left speechless, including Finn Lewis.

“This… Finn Lewis, are you sure you’ve got the right design?” Great Lewis turned to Finn Lewis with the question, “Is it the wrong design, or did I open it incorrectly? Is this a private villa? For god’s sake! Who has a private villa covering 980 square kilometers? That’s almost a hundredth of an entire country!”

Even if you were to go to the North Federation or to Proudshire where the big landowners have farmhouses, how many could boast such a vast expanse of land?

“No mix-up, this is it.” Finn Lewis supported himself, mentally cursing Olivia Thatcher. Was she insane? This wasn’t a mansion, this was more like a city! A villa complex covering 980 square kilometers!

Emma Lewis couldn’t help but interject, “Are you out of your mind? You want such a huge area just to live in? Haven’t you ever heard that no matter how large your house is, you can only use a few square meters of it?”

Finn Lewis rolled his eyes and retorted, “Then I’ll just buy you a house of a few square meters to live in. What do you need such a large house for?”

Barely recovered from Finn Lewis’ grandeur, Great Lewis hardly noticed their exchanges, focusing on the rest of the design. As the next image popped up, even the prepared Great Lewis was caught off guard and choked on his own spit.
