Leo Thompson returned to report in.
Kingsly Scott was on the hotel's balcony, engaged in a video call.
Dressed in white casual wear, he exuded an air of relaxed confidence as he conversed fluently in English with the person on the other end.
Leo had already recognized the person as a high-ranking official from California, responsible for the Golden Coast project in the south.
So, it was evident that the Golden Coast project had never been as stagnant as the outside world speculated; Kingsly had been in control all along.
Leo casually reached a low table beside the sofa and poured himself a whiskey.
Before long, Kingsly ended the video call.
Seeing Kingsly approach, Leo also poured a glass of whiskey for him. As Kingsly came over, Leo handed him the drink. "Congratulations to me; my acting skills deserve an Oscar!"
Kingsly took the drink and settled comfortably onto the sofa, showing little reaction to Leo's performance.
