Looking at this familiar figure, Royce was stunned.

He stared at Nora in disbelief, his eyes widened.

Ms. Nora?

Was it Ms. Nora?

Compared to half a year ago, when she was in New York, she seemed to have lost some weight and had become more beautiful. If not for those familiar lazy almond-shaped eyes when Nora walked on the streets, Royce would not have recognized her.

But what was Ms. Nora doing here?

Royce was a little stunned.

As he stood there, the people behind him thought that Nora had blocked the way. Someone immediately asked, “You are?”

Nora glanced at Liam and yawned. She said lazily, “Lisa.”

Lisa?

Royce frowned.

He really wanted to shut his subordinate’s

mouth!

He was usually very good at flattering him. Why couldn’t he tell that something was amiss today?

He had finally come back to his senses.

Ms. Nora was hiding her identity by saying that she was Lisa! The warning gaze she had given to him earlier was also to tell him not to speak nonsense. Otherwise, why would she be here if she could just expose her identity?

Royce understood.

Ms. Nora was asking for an investment!

However, she could not expose her identity, so he had to make his investment look fair on the surface!

But his own subordinate had been undermining him here. How could he still invest “fairly”?

As he was thinking about what to do, Liam said again, “Um… Actually, there are only two people involved in the project. This kind of thing is easy to resolve. Professor Myer was very famous in the school back then but he has fallen from grace these past few years. As long as we invest, the number of people would definitely not be a problem.”

One of Liam’s men sneered and retorted, “Not a problem? I think it’s a big problem! Have you been bribed by him? What’s the difference between this and a scam? Besides, this project proposal is a complete mess. Is there any need to invest?”

Liam was lectured. He clenched his jaw and looked at Nora again.

Rene had said that it was not easy for Nora to raise the three children alone. It was not easy for her to attend school here. They were all neighbors and he had to help.

Therefore, Liam took a deep breath and continued, “That project… Actually, if you look at it carefully, you can tell that it will be very valuable in the future. Although we won’t be able to get any benefits in the short term, we have to look further ahead…”

Even if Royce was helping Wayne out of friendship, he could not have given him money for no reason.

Wayne’s project was indeed promising for the future.

However, Royce’s subordinate continued to scold him, “This idea of yours is very dangerous! We’re investors, of course we look at the long-term benefits! But you’re a newcomer, what do you know? You still dare to speak nonsense here? Don’t tell me you want to speak up for Lisa because she’s beautiful? Mr. Royce will definitely not agree! Isn’t that so, Mr. Royce?”
