NovelEnglishCadfan sighed, and he said guiltily, "I've been unable to eat and sleep over the past two days because I'm not only filled with guilt toward both you and your mother, but I've also been thinking about how I can compensate the two of you. It just so happens that Arrington and I were talking about Maldives today, and I suddenly thought of giving the island that the Schulz family had reserved in Maldives to you. That way, both you and your mother can go over there to rest and relax." Although the island in Maldives was very expensive, it was not very valuable. For instance, the island that the Schulz family had developed had simply cost tens of millions of dollars for them to purchase the rights to use the island for a hundred years. However, what was truly expensive was the cost of development and construction on the island.
An island not only required a complete set of architectural solutions, but it also had to be accompanied by a large number of luxurious decorations. It also had to have a full set of hardware facilities such as docks, helipads, and satellite communications. It even had to be equipped with independent power generation and desalination capabilities.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, the Schulz family would have invested close to three billion dollars after a full set of construction. 1 Cadfan had originally treated that island as his future paradise on earth to enjoy his old age. That was the reason why he had spared no expense to develop it.
If he were to really give it to Sophie, he would naturally be very reluctant to do so. 2 However, he was simply saying it because he wanted to leave a good impression in his granddaughter's heart first.
Based on his understanding of Sophie, he felt that it would be rather unlikely that Sophie would want his island. First of all, Sophie would definitely be focusing all of her efforts on the ocean shipping business now. She would certainly not be interested in going to Maldives at this time. 1 Secondly, her mother, Helen, definitely hated Cadfan t 0 the core now. So, if Cadfan were to ask Helen to go and relax on his island, Helen would unquestionably not agree to it. 2 Sure enough.
As soon as Sophie heard Cadfan's words, she could not help but frown.
She was not stupid either.
She knew that her grandfather's words were just a false and hypocritical show of his affection.

So, Sophie hesitated for a moment before she said," Thank you so much. then, Grandpa. I'll have to trouble you to send Butler Schulz to make a trip to Aurous Hill one of these days with the property rights to the island, then. I'll make tto bring my mom there to relax a little after the property rights have been transferred to my name." 2 When Cadfan heard these words, he instantly felt a strong hint of distress.
He thought to himself, 'I was just being polite with you, but why did you really agree to it?! You're still so young, so why do you need an island that is clearly for retirement purposes? If you're truly going to take it away from me, what am I going to do in the future? cannot possibly develop another island from scratch, right?!' As he thought about it, Cadfan hurriedly said, "Sophie, the transfer of the property rights of the island have to be done locally in Maldives. It is relatively troublesome, but both you and your mother can go there to rest and relax first." 2 Sophie took advantage of the situation to her own benefit as she said, "That's perfect, then. In that case, I can get the transfer of the property rights done when I go over there." As she spoke, Sophie then added, "Grandpa, you should also know that my mother would certainly have her own opinion and objection toward you. So, if the island is under your name, she will definitely not be willing to go there. However, it's different if the island was under my name." 1
Cadfan could only reply resentfully, "You're right. I failed to consider everything fully. In that gase, you'dan ме letknow when you have tto go there. I'll ask Arrington to go there as well and get all of the formalities done..." 3 As he spoke, Cadfan hurriedly added, "By the way, Sophie, I have another favor that I'd like to ask of you this time..." Sophie hummed slightly. "Tellabout it." 3
Cadfan hurriedly said, "This is what happened. Your benefactor calledjust now and it seems as though he might have s
