Javier nestled comfortably on his mother's lap, wrapping his arms around her in an affectionate hug. He buried his face against her breast, inhaling her comforting scent. "Mother…"
"Yes, my honey bun?" Lady Francesca replied, stroking his messy black hair with a tender smile.
"Can you give me some land? Or at least permission to buy or acquire some?"
Francesca tilted her head. "Why do you need land, anyway?"
"I want to start a farming business," Javier said, grinning cheekily. "Ehehe."
"Javier," Francesca laughed softly, "you know managing land requires more than just buying it. You'll need money to run it, hire workers and guards, and ensure someone oversees the business daily. Are you ready for all that?"
"Well…" Javier began, his grin widening. "Can I ask Liana to help? Ehehe."
"Are you sure, my honey bun? Liana is your personal maid. If you ask her to manage your business full-time, you won't see her every day."
