Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176: A New Beginning, Part 2

Lillian spoke with calm assurance, her voice steady and filled with determination as she outlined her strategy. “The Skyreach Group’s headquarters in Kingston is fully completed and ready. We’ll be shifting our main operations there immediately, though this location will remain a vital stronghold, especially since our pharmaceutical factory is still based here. Kingston is the political center of Dracovia, which means for Skyreach Group, it represents not only a tremendous opportunity but also a significant challenge.”

The three colleagues listened intently, their faces brightening with excitement and hope. Although the Kingston headquarters had been ready for quite some time, Lillian’s silence had kept them waiting. Deep down, they had been eager for the move, craving the chance to expand and take on new ventures.

Noticing their enthusiasm, Lillian allowed herself a small smile before continuing. “The second development is something I’ve secured—a mineral vein rich with pure ivory ore of the highest grade. Recently, emeralds have surged in value as collectibles and are becoming wildly popular in jewelry. So, I’ve decided to launch a new division: Skyreach Group Jewelry. Our brand already shines brightly; this expansion will only enhance our prestige.”

Ryan’s jaw nearly dropped in disbelief. “A mine? Boss, when did you manage to get that? Honestly, it feels like you’re a treasure trove that never runs dry. Every time I think we’ve uncovered all your secrets, you surprise us with something new.”

Karina’s expression showed skepticism. “That’s impressive, Lillian, but mining rights almost never change hands easily. Managing a mine is no simple task. How exactly did you pull this off?”

Lillian nodded knowingly. “You’re right. Normally, it would be complicated. But in my case, it’s already been sorted out. I acquired the rights two years ago, and all other arrangements are taken care of. Now, all that remains is to prepare the paperwork for the jewelry division.”

Her tone was casual, yet the conviction behind her words left no room for doubt. If Lillian said it was done, then it was as good as sealed.

“Understood,” Karina responded promptly. “We’ll get started right away.”

“Now, the third matter,” Lillian said, reaching into her small bag and pulling out a delicate porcelain vial. She tipped it gently, letting three round pills fall into her palm before passing them to the others. “Try these. They’re my latest formula. Let me know how they feel.”

Without hesitation, the three swallowed the pills. Their trust in her was absolute—Lillian’s expertise in medicine and pharmaceuticals was something they had witnessed time and again.

“Good,” Lillian said. “That’s settled. For everything else, maintain normal operations. Now, how are the industries we absorbed last time progressing?”

“They’re doing well,” Wayne reported. “Skyreach’s growth over the past two years has boosted their performance too. The land parcel we acquired has been developed into a resort with an underwater view, just as you suggested. It opened recently and is already thriving. I’ll send you the financial reports later.”

Lillian nodded with satisfaction. “Excellent. And what about Sandy River?”

Ryan answered quickly. “At first, there was resistance. The locals were wary of outsiders. But once the hospitals switched to our pharmaceuticals, business took off, and complaints stopped. Wings Corp is doing well too. The land plots you planned were all developed into residential areas, and construction is still ongoing.”

Lillian already recognized the potential there. Sandy River was destined to become a financial hub, and the value of the land would soar. “Once construction is complete, leave the properties undeveloped. Don’t sell yet. Wait for the right moment.”

After two years away, there was much to manage. By midday, the four of them took a quiet break together in the company cafeteria, sharing a simple meal amid the whirlwind of their plans, their minds already racing toward the future.
