Parker seemed unable to answer because he was just curious.
It was probably very rare for him to be curious, but he couldn't argue that this one was completely new, something he initially thought would never exist.
"Ehmm!!!" While Parker was silent, Old Gordon cleared his throat.
"Arthur, no, we're just curious, nothing more than that," he said.
Of course, it was impossible for people like them to have a curiosity limit. When they wanted to know something, they would want to know in detail.
However, since they are not pushy, there is nothing to worry about.
"Right, how is your expansion plan, do you plan on opening another store?" Parker finally spoke.
He didn't ask further about the agarwood, but asked about his business plan, which could also be said as asking about one's future dreams.
Arthur thought there was a reason he was successful, he knew how to make people happy to communicate with him.
"Of course there are such plans, but wait until we have enough agarwood branches," Arthur replied.
He then looked at William and Old Gordon. "Actually that depends on you, however, we need your help to find more agarwood," he added, which instantly changed the expressions of the grandfather and his grandson.
His words practically confirmed that they were lying about the claim that the agarwood here was the result of their own cultivation.
"Mr. Gordon, you don't mind working with us?" Amanda asked.
"Uhuk!" Old Gordon pretended to cough.
"Miss Amanda, this is, you know it's a tough one, we're honest businessmen. Sure we occasionally do things that aren't right, but we won't get seriously involved."
"So you need a supplier," interrupted Parker.
As everyone stared at him, he said, "yeah, I may not be in this business, but I have a lot of business in Southeast Asia, it's not hard if I want to bring branches of agarwood here."
Hearing his words, Arthur and Amanda looked at each other.
"Hehehe!" Anna suddenly laughed.
She said, "Arthur, you can count on this old man, he is strong enough to ignore the law for simple cases like carrying illegal goods that are not really dangerous."
"If it's like that, I'll count on you, old man!" Arthur didn't think too long to decide.
Compared to the Gordon Family company or other equivalent companies, Parker with his worldwide business could do things more easily.
Arthur thought Parker alone was enough to stop some people who wanted to prove that their agarwood entered Europe illegally because with his wealth, there was no way he didn't have connections with many high-ranking officials.
Arthur's approval made Parker happy because he really wanted to get involved in the business. He said, "when do we start the cooperation?"
"Later I will send people to your office," Amanda replied.
"Okay!" Parker nodded while holding his chin.
"What are you guys talking about?" At this moment, Riccardo and Lillian suddenly approached.
Amanda rolled her eyes and replied, "just talking about business. You don't need to get involved."
"Girl, all the business is still in your father's name, how dare you try not to involve him." Lillian immediately scolded Amanda, clearly with the intention of making Riccardo unhappy with his own daughter.
Her actions were indeed too blatant, any man would be aware of her intentions. However, she wasn't worried because no matter how much Riccardo knew of her bad intentions, he would still love her.
Because of the family conflict, Parker, Old Gordon, William, and even Anna chose to stay away.
The latter said to Arthur, "I'll wait for you!"
Her tone was somewhat flirtatious and she blinked again.
And that was something Amanda didn't realize because her eyes were focused on Lillian.
"Bitch, who do you think you are to comment on our family matters?" Suddenly, Bella arrived and immediately scolded Lillian.
Although there were some conflicts between her and Amanda, in this case, there was no way she would not cooperate with her.
"You!" Lillian was annoyed at being called a Bitch. She pointed his hand at Bella and said, "girl, you're still not old enough, no need to come talk to us."
After that, she looked at Riccardo with a sad expression. "Honey, look at your daughter, she's so rude to me!"
Looking at Lillian's face, Riccardo knitted his brows.
"Bella, go away first, you're currently taking your national exams, right? You should study more and avoid saying harsh words so that your mind doesn't get crossed," he said, reprimanding Bella.
The latter was breathless from Lillian and her father's words. She seemed to want to jump up to teach the woman, but was fortunately able to restrain herself as Amanda suddenly said, "dad, please follow me upstairs!"
Amanda didn't say more, she took a step towards the stairs.
Seeing her somewhat calm expression, but hiding great annoyance, Arthur shook his head.
He then followed her.
Riccardo was confused as to why Amanda had suddenly invited him upstairs, what did she want to talk about?
Curious, he finally followed her too. Of course, Lillian also followed.
Bella didn't know about the magic in her father's body yet, but since having magic, she also felt strange.
She started to feel like Arthur wanted to do something.
After looking around for a while, she stepped onto the stairs as well.
Fortunately the commotion didn't attract too much attention as the store itself was in a very busy state.
Only Parker and Old Gordon had a clear view.
However, with their old age, they were used to problems in the family, so they didn't really care.
Meanwhile, on the stairs, Amanda quietly said to Arthur, "dear, will you show my father some magic?"
She said that so that her father could see firsthand what Lillian had done.
Although she had previously said everything was fine as long as her father returned to rationality, but Lillian's behavior made her want the woman to learn a lesson as soon as possible. And that was only possible if her father knew her secret.
