Chapter 446
Dartan Belongs To Me “Don’t worry,” Donald replied with a nod. “The fifth-generation chips are from
Quadfield, and the research I have on that is ten years ahead of theirs. Moreover, Lord Campbell
Mountain Villa’s research into new energy sources and superinsulation materials is already in its final
stages. We should be able to showcase them at the fair too.” Lana gazed fondly at Donald, head tilted
as she rested her cheek on her hand and her ample bosom on the table. Donald, however, accidentally
stole a glimpse and looked away immediately. “I’m curious,” Lana said smilingly.
“Just how rich are you?” Even though he was taken aback by the question, Donald quickly regained his
composure. “I don’t have much now. My net worth is more than a hundred billion, but my expenses are
astronomical. The annual fees for the three hundred thousand Horizon Group members alone are
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtstaggering enough.” “Oh, my gosh! Where do you get your money from, then?” Calm as always,
Donald took a sip of his coffee before dropping the bomb. “Well… Dartan belongs to me.” Lana stared
at him in utter disbelief, eyes widening with every second. Dartan was a foreign nation and also one of
the global financial centers. However, it had been in a state of anarchy for the longest time, giving rise
to the rampant growth of private armies. If it weren’t for its strategic location, Dartan would have long
descended into chaos and the junk heap of destruction. The precarious situation went on until Donald
formed the Horizon Group and dispatched a team to set up a base in Dartan.
Dartan’s a world trade center and has several countries around its borders. Once we’ve launched the
new energy sources and superinsulation materials powered by our controlled fusion technology, we’ll
hold our first official press conference there,” Donald added. “As for the superchip that you’ve
mentioned, Dartan has an even more advanced one. It’s the place to go for the best technology and
innovation! Having heard all of that, Lana was utterly dumbfounded. The closer she got to Donald, the
more she was stunned by his power and influence. No wonder everyone said Donald wouldn’t be able
to compete with the Campbell clan in the country, but if they were in an international setting, he’d crush
them without even breaking a sweat! After chatting for a bit more, Lana decided to change the topic.
“Jennifer and Tyrone are getting engaged on the twenty-sixth of this month. What are your thoughts on
that?” Donald shook his head. “It all depends on what Jennifer thinks.” In all honesty, he hadn’t seen
Jennifer yet, and neither did he have any traces of her in his memories. The only way to jog his
memory of her was if he met her face to face. As such, he wasn’t too bothered by the engagement for
the time being. For the rest of the day, Donald roamed about Pollerton as he tried to search for his old
memories. Meanwhile, Silas was starting to suspect that something had gone amiss. Not only had
Francesco not returned, but the bodyguards he sent out had also failed to find any information. Silas
had set up an office in Pollerton, and a group of people had gathered inside, most of whom Donald
would find acutely familiar.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOther than Silas, there was also the chairman of Pollerton Translations, Akio Ono. However, there was
one specific person that caught everyone else’s attention. He was a man in his seventies, dressed in a
long, flowing robe. Even as he sat quietly in his seat, the aura emanating from him was eerily
frightening. As it turned out, the man was none other than Jeffery Lysle, Francesco’s master. He was
one of the founding members of Crimson Dust Order and had immense influence overseas. At that
moment, Jeffery was stoic as he gripped his phone tight, not saying a word. “There’s still no news
about Brutus and Francesco,” Silas uttered before stealing a peek at Jeffery. To say the latter was
terrifying would be an understatement. Jeffrey had earned his fame decades ago, and everyone knew
his powers were unfathomable. Silas had even once witnessed him casually leaping a hundred meters
into the air.
Just as one could cut the atmosphere with a knife, a knock on the door rang out, breaking the silence.
A masked man promptly entered the room and walked up to Akio. “Mr. Ono, I’ve seen Holton Danvers
and Arnaldo Wilson. They’re still alive!” This time, it was Jeffery’s turn to be surprised at the masked
man’s appearance. After all, he could tell from one look that the latter was the third-best fighter in
Yartran, Amadeus!
