Matthew specifically went to Kitmore City to invite Athena to watch “High Mountain“.

After watching the movie, they went for a late–night snack. Then, he returned to Valemont City by car.

On the way back, he crossed his arms, squinted, and asked casually, “How’s Jaden’s farm doing now?”

Speaking of this, Louis, who was driving, immediately perked up. He said, “Jaden really has a knack for business and is very action–oriented.”

He went on and on about Jaden’s rise to wealth, saying, “Didn’t we and Luna invest over 20 million dollars in him in April? Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“After receiving the money, he immediately rented many old houses at the end of Oxhorn Village. Before the summer vacation, he renovated these old houses into unique local guesthouses. He brought in professional managers to develop delicacies made from his own organic vegetables and meat. Business is booming.

“After ‘High Mountain‘ became a hit, a large number of tourists went to Oxhorn Village every day. At its peak, daily visitors exceeded ten thousand. Jaden’s guesthouses could not accommodate them at all.

“During this period, he helped the villagers to set up guesthouses or farm stays so they could make money together. Not only the villagers but even the county leaders praised him.”

Matthew said, “With so many tourists flooding into the Donovan family’s farmland, the fields will be destroyed, right?”

“That’s right.” Louis nodded. “That’s why Jaden has long built a viewing barrier around the countryside, allowing a maximum of five hundred visitors each day. This is for tourists who celebrate their birthdays, getting into university, wedding anniversaries, and other special occasions.

“The Donovan family’s old residence and cemetery absolutely cannot be disturbed.

“He also recruited a large number of graduates from Agricultural University to manage his vegetable and fruit garden. Next it seems that he wants to collaborate with teachers from Agricultural University and experts from Agricultural Research Institute to introduce quality vegetable seedlings, fruit seedlings, fish fry, and so on.”

He then sighed and continued, “I can tell that Jaden is very ambitious and bold. He will definitely not be satisfied with just a few hundred acres of farmland.”

Matthew smirked, “As long as he can handle it, we’ll give him as much funding

as he needs.”

“Got it,” Louis said respectfully. “I’m keeping an eye on him. I definitely won’t let him lack money.”

At this point, Matthew said casually, “It’s been a long time since you took a vacation, right? The filming locations in the movie are great. You could take some friends there for a trip.”

Louis immediately understood. “It’s more than a vacation. I think it’s also perfect for team building. I’ll contact the head of the Kitmore City branch tomorrow, and we’ll go to Oxhorn Village for a meal, enjoying the local free–range chicken and organic vegetables.”

He thought, ‘During the meal, I’ll hint that Mr. Graham wants to arrange for the headquarters‘ employees to come here for tearn building, but it’s a little far and inconvenient. The head of the Kitmore City branch will naturally understand what I mean and will arrange for his own employees to come here for team building. Once Graham Group does this, other companies will surely follow suit. This way, Jaden’s business will definitely flourish even more…

Matthew did not ask about Jaden anymore. “What about Brandon? How’s he doing?”

Louis said. “He works very hard. Other than those few days for Christinas and when there are family natters to deal with, he doesn’t take a day off. The first batch of Al products developed by their company, targeting the elderly, went into production

in June. Lately, he’s been carrying product samples to various hospitals and exhibitions for demonstrations every day. The customer feedback has been generally positive, but since the company is not well–known, it’s been hard for him to secure large orders.”

Matthew said, “Go check it out. If his products are really good, secretly order a batch and send them to welfare institutions and some hospitals.”

Louis instantly understood his intention. “Got it.”

As long as Brandon’s company could get a large order and gain access to a broader market, many customers would definitely come on board.

He would help Brandon in securing that large order.

Brandon might sense that someone was helping him behind the scenes, but he did not mind.

He just wanted to expand and strengthen the company as soon as possible so that the Donovan family would never be picked on by anyone again.

Today, he brought Josie to the private hospital where Ruby was staying as usual.

There was an unwritten rule in the Donovan family that everyone in the family had to visit Ruby at least once a month.

Ruby raised Athena and the Donovan family was greatly beholden to her. No one in the Donovan family had any objection to this.

Since Josie had to go to this private hospital for physiotherapy three times a week, she would visit Ruby every time she went. Ruby adored her and praised her for being as cute as Athena when she was a child.

Josie liked it when people said she resembled Athena.

Every time they met, it was filled with laughter. They were so happy.

After chatting with Ruby for a while, Brandon had Josie play with her while he took the AI device to demonstrate his company’s product to the family members of an elderly patient with dementia.

“You can set a distance range here,” he said. “Once the elderly person of the family moves beyond a certain distance, for example, 1000 feet, it will send a notification. [You are now 950 feet from

home, and your home is behind you…]

“You can set a reminder interval here. If it’s set to 10 minutes, it will remind the elderly person every 10 minutes. [My name is so–and–so, I live in unit X on the Y floor of Z apartment complex. My spouse is so–and–so, and I have W children, and so on…]

“This screen will also display corresponding family photos…”

The eyes of the patient’s family members lit up when they heard that. One of them said excitedly, “This AI device is really useful! My mom often forgets who we are and even calls us scammers, telling us to leave. We’ve had to explain over and over. It’s so exhausting. She loves going out, but we won’t dare to let her go out alone. Having said that, we don’t have the time to follow her every day. With this AI device, she can take walks in the apartment complex on her own, and we can track her location and see her surroundings on our phones. It’s just so convenient…”

Other patients and their family members also gathered around and asked, “How much is this AI device? Is it expensive?”

Brandon said, “Our company currently has seven models of products. The focus of our services for each model is different. The price varies depending on the materials and functions of the products, with the cheapest being around 200 dollars, and the most expensive being several thousand dollars…”

Just as he was happily talking, he heard someone say in a disdainful voice, “I was wondering who’s selling products here. It turns out to be you, Brandon. Back then, didn’t you shout in front of me, saying that fortunes flip, so don’t get too smug

when I’m doing well? You also ask me not to bully a young man when he’s poor. I’ve been waiting for you to make me have egg on my face. But now, after all these years, you’ve actually fallen to the point of selling products worth only a few hundred dollars. It’s really just as I imagined. You’ll always be a poor fool”
