"Mr. Lewis, you're not kidding?" Matthew Chan found his mouth dry, his voice somewhat hoarse, a hint of excitement colouring his face.
Sitting by him, Fishy Wells and Julia Parker were equally startled. They knew that Finn Lewis was wealthy, but they didn't imagine just how rich. 30 billion Federal coins? Converted to Flame Nation coins that amounts to a mind-boggling 1.8 trillion! It's counted in the billions! This thought made them look at Lewis differently.
No wonder he could afford to spend so generously just to hire a female assistant. They had thought him a spendthrift, but considering his vast wealth and their wages, it all seemed insignificant. Even if this 1.8 trillion Flame Nation coins just sat in a bank, it would generate an annual interest in the billions!
