The Queen They Buried (by Wynter Vans) novel Chapter 618

Chapter 618

As soon as the news broke that Aubree was planning to invest and build in the Drebay City, the whole region was instantly abuzz.

The Lawson family in Drebay City was just like the Turner family in Rithol City. They are one of the region’s top elite families.

When news about Bryan and Elizabeth broke out earlier, the Lawson family also gained significantly from the buzz. Aubree’s business was mainly concentrated in Rithol City and Südlichen Strand, with some operations in Nadio, but she had no connection to Drebay City. Even so, her name was well known there.

She had skyrocketed to fame in just a few years. Back then, people called her a prodigy; now, she was already the youngest entrepreneur in the game. With two major successes–GrabCheap and Zappy–under her belt, she had sparked an entire trend in the live–streaming industry.

Her net worth ranked among the very top nationwide.

Additionally, Aubree had significant overseas ventures.

Then there was her relationship with the Wilson family. Though rumours claimed the two sides didn’t get along, family was still family–you couldn’t draw a clear line. The Lawson and Wilson families were related by marriage, so if Aubree planned to expand her business into Drebay City, who was to say she wouldn’t let the Lawson family in on the action?

The attention surrounding Aubree in Drebay City was at an all–time high.

For one thing, she was planning to invest in and build factories in the region–making her a walking goldmine. Once that money started flowing in, it would immediately drive growth across related industries and boost small and medium–sized businesses in the area, giving the local economy a significant boost.

For another, there were the established local giants. The biggest names in the region had been eager to work with Aubree for a long time, and now this golden opportunity had practically landed on their doorstep. If they didn’t seize it now, when would they?

As soon as her flight was confirmed, she notified the team handling her reception in Drebay City.

“She’s arriving tomorrow?” someone asked.

“Yeah, her flight’s in the morning–she’ll land just before noon.

Lunch has already been arranged,” another confirmed.

“Aubree used to work in e–commerce and short video platforms,” someone said, “but recently, she’s built strong ties with the senior researchers at the Rithol City institute. She’s invested heavily in them and even contributed ideas to improve their projects.”

Others agreed, “Some people are just naturally gifted, you know? I heard she studied finance at Rithol University. Even though she has only read a few books and taken a couple of courses on semiconductors, she has already come up with some real insights. She even helped the research team solve a few major technical challenges. With a brain like that–if she ever dedicated herself to serving the country, can you imagine the possibilities.”

“Come on,” someone else chimed in. “Isn’t she already doing that? Look at how much money she’s pouring in. The higher–ups have been treating this very seriously ever since they heard the news.”

“Anyway, when Aubree comes to Drebay City, we’ve got to make sure both she and her money stay right here,” another person added:

The Drebay City Commerce Committee had already finalised all the airport pickup arrangements for her. Everything was in place–now, all that was left was for Aubree to arrive so they could finally sit down and talk business.
