YM778.TV Chapter 264 Finally!
"I was impressed, too," Aron said as he started the car and drove toward the tallest building in Edenia.
They continued chatting as he drove, and when they arrived, they got off and took an elevator to the roof, where a helicopter was waiting for them.
"Do you have anywhere you want to visit?" Aron asked.
"How about we tour the city? I want to see the projects you\'re working on," Rina said, some excitement showing on her face. She was very curious about what Aron was working on.
He agreed and sent an updated route to the pilot\'s HUD. The new route would take them to all of the in-progress projects being run by GAIA and Connect before returning to Avalon Island.
The tour began, with Aron narrating details about the projects as they passed over them. They flew low over the growing rail network, then gained altitude for a better view of the soon-to-be massive airport. It was already partially completed and in operation for small aircraft, but the entire project would be completed in a few months. Then the helicopter took a long, swooping turn and headed to the first of two massive ports. It, too, had already been partially opened and was taking and sending small amounts of freight. The helicopter then followed the electrical network from there, dancing around the transformers as Rina\'s glasses showed her the underground network with the help of AR.
"Which of the major projects is going to be done first?" she asked when the tour was over. Night had fallen before they arrived back on Avalon Island.
"The utility infrastructure is going to be done first. By next month, it\'ll be delivering internet, electricity, and clean water, and will be carrying sewage as well. We\'ll have a monopoly on all utilities, for Edenia at least. As for the other cities, they\'ll have service in a month or so as we focused on bringing up the standards in the capital first. After the utility infrastructure, it\'ll be the airport, then the ports. Finally, we\'ll wrap up the railways after everything else is done. But we\'ll be working on the major trunk lines as we go, so it\'ll have partial service but won\'t be fully connected as broadly as I\'d like it to be until everything else is done," Aron answered.
"By the way... why go into the utility industry? I mean, I can understand the airport, the ports, and the rail network... but why utilities?" she asked.
"There\'s a few reasons. First, I want to keep the cities clean. Second, infrastructure is expensive and takes a long time and a lot of effort to build and maintain. Since the government doesn\'t have enough money without hyperinflating their currency and devaluing it, I\'ll step in. After all, I can do it cheaper and faster if I do it myself.
"Lastly, it\'s because I can make a good profit from it and wouldn\'t need to charge high prices to do so, which means I\'ll be building a positive reputation by doing nothing but sitting back and making money. And I won\'t even have to manipulate public opinion, either."
"But I haven\'t seen any construction for your company\'s HQ—haven\'t you started that yet?" she asked.
"The construction hasn\'t started yet, no. I don\'t have enough people to work on everything at once, so they have to be assigned to the projects in order of importance. Besides, building our HQ would be seen as a vanity project, since we already bought perfectly acceptable buildings to use in the meantime." The skyscraper their helicopter had taken off from was the tallest building in the country, at the moment, as well as one of the buildings that were being used as offices for his two companies.
They continued chatting as the helicopter headed back to Avalon Island at the fastest speed it could without disturbing people on the ground.
...
A few minutes later.
Aron was deeply kissing Rina in one of the luxurious rooms in "The Cube", the massive superstructure on Avalon. As for how they had arrived at that particular moment... after Aron had escorted her to her room and bid her farewell, she jumped on him and kissed his cheek. That provoked him into action, and he immediately pulled her into his arms and started deeply kissing her as he gently pushed her inside her room.
He picked her up like a hug pillow and carried her to the bed as they continued making out. Once they were beside it, he pushed her down on the fluffy mattress, laying atop her as they continued aggressively making out.
He broke the kiss for a moment and took off his shirt, revealing the chiseled sculpture that was his upper body.
Rina was taken aback; she almost couldn\'t believe he was real. It was her first time seeing him shirtless, and he seemed too inhumanly perfect to exist. \'Ever since I met him, he\'s only worn baggy clothes, but hiding under those... Wow!\' she thought.
Aron didn\'t stay separated from her for long, but immediately fell on her again to continue the makeout session that he had interrupted by removing his shirt. There was one difference, though: instead of having his arms trapped between her body and the bed, his hands were now free to explore her body, starting with her chest.
But her clothes were limiting his exploring hands, so he moved one of them around and under her dress to fondle her soft, generous blessing. Rina softly moaned, her lips freed by Aron, who had transitioned his passionate kisses to the side of her neck.
Then came the sound of cloth tearing as he grew tired of her being clothed and simply tore the dress she was wearing off of her body.
The expensive dress was torn from her, revealing the beautiful body hidden beneath it and leaving her in nothing but the frilly lace lingerie she had been wearing.
Aron, now with access to her skin, trailed kisses down her throat as he removed her bra, revealing her plump bosom. His wandering hand teased one of her mountains while his lips climbed the other, eliciting another round of moaning from the beautiful woman.
What was weird, though, was that Aron was acting like he had experience. But he could swear that he had no knowledge of bedroom activities other than the porn he\'d watched growing up. It was almost like someone had downloaded the knowledge into his subconscious mind, and it was only now coming into focus!
