Lucius's gaze flicked between the two of them.
"That's assuming you can keep up with production."
"We plan to expand," Alice said. "We're going to buy more land with the money we've saved."
Isaac looked at her. "How much do we have?"
Alice didn't answer immediately.
Instead, she glanced at Lucius.
The chairman noticed her gaze.
His lips twitched.
He leaned back with a quiet exhale, clearly trying not to let it show how that small act bothered him.
It was normal. She wasn't obligated to share the full financial picture with him anymore, not since she took control of her own branch. But a part of him had still hoped she would.
Alice finally answered, "Enough to buy a lot of land."
Then, smoothly, she shifted the subject.
"But we're not just planning to sell crops. That's only the base. There's something else, something much better."
Isaac raised a brow. "Better?"
Alice turned to him. "Do you remember Walker Forge?"
