The man then said, "It's ridiculous. Why must everything be measured in terms of benefits? What about the memories I've made here? Aren't they important?" Rita bit her lower lip and felt her cheeks burn with shfor her blind faith. She had assumed that money was the solution to all problems. She was always going on and on about Sherman being a profit-minded businessman, but living in the sprivileged family environment had tainted her with that mindset. She always felt as if money could solve anything.

"I grew up on this land. I finally got my house when I was over 30, but I was forced to leave after only a few years. Now everyone thinks I've gone mad, sleeping around on this muddy ground. But this was my hbefore those developers came. Why did I have to leave?" Rita fell silent at his questions, unable to provide an answer.

"I apologize for putting so much pressure on you to share this with me." Virgil felt a sense of relief after sharing his burden. He wiped away his dirt-mixed tears from his face.

"I know what people like you think.

You probably feel I'm ungrateful, But if you had had experienced what I have, you'd understand why I've been so reluctant to share. But now I've told you everything..."

"Don't worry. As long as I'm still in the industry, I promise I'll help you find a solution to your problem," Rita expressed her determination to Virgil. "How do you plan to do that?" Virgil

asked wryly appreciate your optimism, but considering all that's happened tothis developer NO might be beyond your reach. For now at least, I'm content to be here on the land I was proud to call my own." X
