Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2205

Eli said, "You're not wrong, Mister Penn. Green isn't our friend."

However, Aite spoke up as well, "You've got it wrong, Mister Penn. Green is our friend. We're all on the same exploration team, after all. Green is just a regular friend to us. Regular friends don't have the right to listen in on what we're about to discuss. We're going to tell you why we asked for forty million dollars."

"Is that so?"

Wilbur smiled as he looked at Aite. Aite was the younger of the two brothers, but he seemed to be the more intelligent one. He was hesitating to speak then, which piqued Wilbur's interest. What could possibly be the reason behind the brothers' request for forty million dollars?

Aite nodded. "We can't just tell anyone about a secret like that, though. So, we'd need to determine if you can afford to hear about it."

"Do you mind showing us your bank account balance?"

"Of course not."

Wilbur was very interested in places where treasure was buried. It was just that most of the treasures he had gotten in the past were left behind by the people of this civilization, and he had never encountered anything from a different civilization until the time he met Dave from the seventh civilization of Earth, which had broadened his perspective greatly.

During his time on his own, Wilbur had also thought about all the civilizations that had once been on this planet in the billions of years Earth had been around. Each civilization must have had its own innovations and things they cared about, and whatever treasure was left behind and passed down must be extremely precious.

Wilbur had also fantasized about getting his hands on treasure like this before as well and used it to improve his skills and powers. Now this fantasy was about to come true, and Vicente Deep Waters seemed like a goldmine for treasure.
