Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 1172

Unfortunately, right before the groundbreaking tomorrow, his dreams were going to shatter.

Natalie looked at Marshall, her tone smooth and measured. "Marshall, you can reach out to the authorities now. That plot of land sits right on top of historic ruins and catacombs. It's a protected cultural heritage site. There is no way the city will let them develop it."

Marshall chuckled. He had sold that land for a premium price back then.

Thanks to Natalie's warning, he hadn't taken a loss.

"Natalie, I'll go report it right now. Before they even start digging tomorrow, I'll be in the front row with popcorn to watch the show." A wicked smirk played on his lips.

Marshall looked aloof, but deep down, he was ruthless and fiercely driven.

He had been waiting for this day, too.

Joanna was a master manipulator, but he wasn't one to sit back and take the hits.

Joanna knew how to plot, and he knew how to bide his time.

Natalie looked at the mischievous grin on his handsome face and stayed silent.

Marshall then turned his attention to Queena, his smile brightening. "Queena, are you free tonight? Want to grab dinner?"

Queena was caught off guard, but she had always been blunt. "Just the two of us?"

Marshall rubbed his nose with an awkward chuckle. "No, the three of us. Good things are going to happen tomorrow, so I wanted us to celebrate tonight."

Queena smiled, suddenly feeling a faint trace of disappointment. She had no idea why she felt let down.

"I'm down, as long as Natalie is free."

Queena looked over at Natalie.

Natalie winked at her, noticing the faint blush creeping onto Queena's cheeks.

She shook her head. "I'm meeting Matthew tonight. You two go ahead without me."

She really did have plans.

Marshall's smile faltered for a second. He had been craving a spicy Mexican feast today.
