"Darn, it's been a while since I have driven a car," Arc complained as he started to remember how to properly drive a car. He used to have a car before his parent's accident, but he sold them all, along with his parent's car.

Now he was driving again after two years, and he feels great, he bought a car yesterday for himself it's not a fancy sports car, Nor any of those fancy maglev vehicles, No he chose a classic black sports pickup Truck, it is different from a regular pickup truck it is smaller but bulkier, and it looks cool, even before, he was never into a fancy two-seater sports car, he was more into big bulky SUV or picked up truck that's his choice of a ride.

So of course since he was getting a new car he might as well get something he likes, he was on his way to the restaurant called the Golden Jade, it's a famous restaurant here in downtown Radial. Since he was already familiar with Mia, he chose a less formal meeting.

It's a short drive from his house, 15 minutes later he was already in the parking area of the golden Jade, as he enters he was greeted by a female employee with a friendly face as he was about to ask for a seat he heard someone calling him, he follows the voice and saw Mia calling him. He smiles and walked over to her.

He greets her and takes a seat in front of her.

"Hi you're early," he said smiling

"Yeah, I figured since we're meeting in the restaurant, might as well have my lunch here," said Mia with a light laugh

"I see, did you get your lunch yet?" Arc asked

"yeah just finished, I was about to ask for a tea when I saw you arrived" Mia answered

"Well then let me order some drinks then," the Arc said with a smile on his face

Arc calls for a waiter to order some drinks and some light snacks. After ordering, Arc looks at Mia and said.

"So, what do you think about the blueprint?" Arc looks at her, waiting for an answer

"it's more complicated than the first, that's for sure," said Mia, giving him a wry smile.

"Haha well I'm sure you can handle it I'm not in a rush anyway, so you can take your time, just don't take too long" he smirked.

"Hmm, well it's certainly challenging I'll give you that, it's a good thing I like a good challenge" Mia gives him a thumbs up.

"But you know you gave me a good surprise this morning, I was so surprised when I opened my TV this morning," said Mia with a teasing look

"Haha sorry, I didn't mention it before, it's a secret after all, as an apology I'll get you a box of S class solutions," Arc said feeling apologetic

Mia smiles and said: "that's easy, I was prepared to strangle you for it, my friends can't stop talking about it, you know"

"Well, that's good news for me. That means my PR department is doing a great job." Arc said with a laugh

"A moment later their drinks arrived, he took a sip and said: I actually have another project for you besides the one I sent earlier. Here, take a look." Arc said with a solemn look.

He passed her the tablet he was carrying

hmm, she takes a look at it and said, "Well, This is certainly different, what do you plan on doing with it?"

"Well, I'm sorry, I can't tell you that since it involves corporate secrets."

What he shows her is a blueprint for where he will train his future army. So, of course, he can't tell her about it.

"Is that so, then I won't ask about it then," said Mia with a smile

Actually, it is easy for Mia to guess just by looking at the blueprint, but as a professional, she knows when to ask and not to ask certain questions.

"But I can't do two projects at the same time, my company is not big enough for that yet."

Said Mia with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Well, what if I invest in your company?"

He said that with a smile on his face, this is his real objective that's why he wants to meet Mia in person because he will have more projects in the future, and having a trusted company doing it saves him all kinds of trouble.

Mia looks at Arc and said, "you're serious, aren't you?"

"Of course, to tell you the truth this is just the beginning there will be more projects in the future, All this is just a small project, in the future, we will be doing projects 100 times bigger than you're doing right now, so having a trusted builder, save me a lot of hassles in the future," said Arc

"Let me think about it, it's not an easy decision to make after all," said Mia with a thoughtful look on her face

"Of course, take your time, it's not like I'm forcing you anyway, just don't take too long to decide," said Arc who still has a friendly smile on his face

"let me ask you something," said Mia seriously.

"What will happen if I refuse?"

Arc said while smiling.

"Nothing much, nothing really will change we will still continue to give you priority over our projects as long as you're capable of it, but I will say it now, the project in the future will be bigger and bigger. And I'll be honest with you, it will be tough for you to manage it, without a huge upgrade to your current equipment it will be hard for you to keep up." Arc said

But you know what, if you think you can keep up with us, then we can just say that this conversation didn't happen." he continues

"Haha, you're really something alright, I agree!" Mia said laughing

"Eh on what?" Arc answered a bit confused

"I'll take your offer on the investment silly," Mia said, grinning

"What really? To tell you the truth, I wasn't really expecting you to agree." Arc said scratching his head

Arc wasn't lying, he really didn't expect Mia to agree so easily, and his offering to invest in Mia was also something he decided on a whim.

"Why not? It's a good opportunity, after all, I was having some doubts earlier, but seeing your reaction removes all that" Mia said looking very happy

"Is that so hahaha, well whatever that's good to hear partner haha" Arc answered awkwardly

In all honesty, he was really happy, having his own exclusive builders will save him a lot of trouble in the future

"I will ask Diana to talk to you about it later you two can discuss the details of the investment"

"No need, I'm willing to offer you 45% of the diamond builder's shares, so what do you think about it?" Ask Mia

"well, since you're being honest let me show my sincerity how about 2 billion credits for 45% of diamond builders shares, but I have a condition as well. You can't sell or hand over any of your shares to anyone else, and I want you and only you to be in charge of the business. I don't want anyone else butting in our business, so what do you think?" said Arc

"Well looks like we have a deal partner," said Mia Smiling brightly

They shake hands and the deal is done.

The two talked more about the details and about the new projects, Mia asks a few questions about the project and Arc answered all her questions, of course, he hides all the important secrets, and after a few hours of chatting they parted ways, both feeling satisfied with the deal. All that remains are the legal procedures. Arc promised to give Mia a few boxes of S grade G-Solution before they parted ways.

Arc Drive home feeling really happy and proud.
