RING!
Just as Richard was about to speak, his phone rang. Glancing at the screen and recognizing the caller, he answered immediately.
"Miss Rowling, Richard here," he said crisply.
He fell silent for several seconds, listening intently. His expression remained unreadable—until suddenly, his eyes lit up.
"I understand."
He ended the call without another word.
Turning sharply toward Stuart, Richard's tone shifted.
"Let's go back," he said decisively.
Stuart blinked in surprise. "Go back?"
The confusion was evident in his voice. After all, they had just arrived by car, walked briefly around the gas tank with the family heir, and now—without saying much—Richard suddenly wanted to leave?
Three years ago, when the Maddox Group and Richard had only just become acquainted with Miss J.K. Rowling, Richard was already preparing for the arrival of the Harry Potter series.
