章 291: A Visitor from an Esteemed Company

July 31st, 2028. After a long day of interviews and meetings at the old Citi Mall Philcoa site, Michael Reyes returned to his office. He felt excitement and a bit of exhaustion as he settled into his chair. The day had been a busy day, but the real work was just beginning. He knew that this project was more than just a business venture; it was a chance to honor his mother's efforts and to complete his mission. 

Michael glanced at the clock. It was early evening, and he decided it was the perfect time to call his mother, Myra. He picked up his phone and dialed her number. After a few rings, Myra answered.

"Hi, Ma. Did you watch the news today?" Michael asked.

"Yes, Michael, I did," Myra replied. "I saw the interviews and the coverage of the mall project. You looked very confident and well-prepared. I'm so proud of you."
