Theo and Sayuri were dumbfounded when they heard Sam's words.
Especially Theo, as he had thought that the money from Moonlight's earnings would be able to pay for this project. But even with the huge amount of money coming from Moonlight every month, Theo would have to wait at least 3 months to gather that much money. And that was if he used the entire money from Moonlight's earnings in this project and didn't invest in anything else.
Theo obviously wouldn't do that as he had many other projects to invest in. He wanted to create a non-governmental charity organization with part of this money. Plus, he wanted to open a gaming company as soon as possible, Theo knew that creating a game took a huge amount of time, so he wanted to start as soon as possible so that he would be able to launch at least one game next year.
