The notifications made a bright smile appear on Grace's lips. While the actual worth of Blackwood Corporation was 2.6 trillion, the stocks ended up taking a toll because of the fire controversy and then her abrupt decision of selling the company.

If it had been a normal situation, this could be considered a huge loss for her, but considering what the future held, Grace wasn't the least bit sad about the loss.

Though she would have loved to get the remaining amount as well, 2 trillion was still a huge amount and more than enough for her to purchase everything she was about to buy.

Not only that but she had around another trillion saved up in different bank accounts or in the form of cash. This took her total saving up to 3 trillion, and it didn't include the billions of expenses she had already made to stockpile the items she asked her team to buy.

"Unfortunately, I didn't get the money in either cash or in my other accounts. I will have to worry Seth for taking care of it." She spoke with a small sigh as she closed her phone and returned her focus on getting ready.

Because she needed to put on a show as a victim who just saw her family house burning, suffered injuries, and was giving up on the huge business empire because she was tired, she remained at the condo for two days and refrained from going out in case paparazzi would catch her shopping around.

But now that the matter had calmed down a little bit and the company was already sold, she decided to no longer waste the precious time.

She glanced at the timer within the system and saw the big digital letters glaring back at her.

96 Days, 14 Hours, and 49 Minutes

Letting out a small sigh, she grabbed the car keys and headed downstairs. She quickly ate the breakfast that Aleena delivered half an hour ago before finally heading out.

Merely ten minutes might have passed since she set out when her phone started ringing. Noticing the caller ID, she immediately put the call on speaker.

"Hello."

[Good morning, Boss. I have finalized the deal and I'm on my way to personally overlook the customization process. This might take around a week. I will let you know as soon as there's some progress.]

Jasper's voice was heard from the other end of the call. "Great work, Jasper. Make sure the goods are ready by the end of the period of one week." Grace replied, and with that, she ended the call.

Her current plan was to spend next few days stocking up some necessary supplies before heading to Mapleton City four days later to meet Valeska who too had finalized the deal of plants and seeds. There, she would spend a day or two to stockpile before heading to Skylane City to meet Ryan.

Once her work in Skylane would be over, it might already be time for her to head to Country S to pick up the batch of weapons. She was sure that by the time she would finish her work in these three places, it might be the time for the arrival of the very first signal of the upcoming disaster - a heavy rainfall that would last for over a week and would be accompanied by a heavy storm.

Among the necessary supplies she needed to stockpile, water was on the very top of her list. But she didn't need to worry about stockpiling it anymore as 2025 informed her that the lakes, rivers, waterfalls, and streams inside the Infinte Realm were also infinte and their water would never empty.

But while she didn't need to stockpile water, she needed other items related to water. Ten minutes later, she parked her car outside a Wholesale Retail building and climbed out before heading inside.

She was dressed in a pair of jeans and white shirt. Her auburn hair was nowhere in sight as she was wearing a black wig as well as contact lenses. The last piece of disguise was the face mask that made it almost impossible for anyone to recognize her.

The worst thing she got from the entire 'fire and sale of her company' matter, was that her face had been shown in the news way too much that almost anyone could recognize her in one glance. Thus, she had to put on this disguise to hide her identity.

Upon entering the building, she was greeted by the staff there. Without wasting any time, she went straight to business. "I'm here to buy 100,000 Portable Water filters, 50,000 Solar UV water purifier, 10,000 Gravity water filter systems, and enough repairing kits."

"Do you have any specific models or companies in mind?" The employee asked politely and Grace told him the brands she wanted.

"These are good models. One portable water filter will cost you around 53. In this case, a 100,000 filters will cost you a total of 5,300,000. The Solar purifiers will cost you 2,500,000, and the total for Gravity water filters is 500,000. Since you have placed a big order, we can offer the repairing kits for free and seal the deal at 8,000,000 if you are satisfied." The employee was professional with his work as he made the offer.

"How long will you need to provide me the goods?" She asked.

"We can deliver it by tomorrow afternoon at the earliest." The employee answered.

"Great. I will make the down payment right now and the rest when the goods will be delivered. Here is the address and my number." Grace said as she handed a name card to the employee with a fake name, one of her phone numbers, and the address of the warehouse.

She then made the down payment, and once she was done there, she immediately headed to her next stop.
