Charlie left the White family mansion as everyone continued staring at him in awe.Jasmine could not stop herself from staring at him from time to time as she sent him home.At this time, Charlie had already turned into the same ordinary person that he had always been. He no longer looked like the powerful and strong man that he looked like earlier.Jasmine could not stop herself from feeling a little suspicious at this time.When Charlie was in the courtyard earlier, he exuded a very superior and mysterious aura.However, the Charlie who was sitting in the passenger seat next to her looked like an ordinary passer-by.Jasmine did not know whether this was intentional or whether it was just an illusion.Therefore, Jasmine could not help but asked, “Charlie…were you really the one who summoned the thunder and lightning just now?”Charlie looked at her before he smiled.“Why don’t you make a guess? Will you believe me if I told you that it was just a mere coincidence?”At this t

However, Charlie did not want to say anything about the villa he was about to receive because of Elaine’s current attitude.As Charlie was busy in the kitchen, Claire walked over to him before she said in a low voice, “Charlie, please don’t take my mother’s words to heart. She is just too vain and idealistic.”Charlie deliberately asked, “What did your mother say? I didn’t hear anything at all.”“Alright then, you can continue pretending. It would really be strange if you truly didn’t hear anything at all,” Claire replied as she poke Charlie’s forehead with her finger.Charlie took advantage of this opportunity to hold Claire’s hand at this time.Claire started blushing immediately and she looked around the kitchen before she retracted her hand immediately.However, Charlie refused to let go of her hand. Instead, he brought his hand closer to him as he took a closer look at her hand. Charlie smiled when he saw that Claire was wearing the bracelet that he made her. After that, he

Early the next morning, Charlie brought the villa key and access cards that Zeke had given him as he drove to the Thompson First sales center with his wife.After driving for a short while, they arrived at the entrance of the Thompson First sales center.At this time, the sales center was extremely crowded. It seemed as though the residents of Aurous Hill were very interested in the properties developed by Thompson First Development Company even though they might not be able to afford it.When Claire saw the huge crowd of people, she pulled Charlie aside as she said, “Charlie, there are so many people here today. We will not be able to afford any of the properties here anyway, so why don’t we go somewhere else instead?”Charlie smiled before he replied, “My dear wife, since we are already here, then why don’t we just head in and take a look? We have nothing to lose anyway. I really want to take a look at the properties developed by this company. Will you accompany me?”At this tim

Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Don’t worry. Your husband has already been bullied for so many years. I’m already used to it!”“Okay then…” Claire nodded.At this time, the property guide smiled before she told Wendy, “Miss, it’s true and it’s common knowledge that the Thompson First Development Company has always regarded the villa owners as our most distinguished customers. Therefore, our private swimming pool, high-end gymnasium, high-end sports club, golf courses and Michelin star restaurants from Italy are specially opened in the villa area to specifically serve the villa owners!”Wendy replied angrily, “What do you mean by that? So, are the owners of the high-rise condominiums not human? We’re spending a lot of money to buy your property too! Why can’t we enjoy these facilities?”The property guide could only reply, “I’m sorry but we also have a clubhouse in the high-rise condominium area. If you choose to buy one of the high-rise condominiums, you can use the clubho

It was obvious that Harold looked down on Charlie.Moreover, he was full of resentment towards Claire, who was a company director.When Harold saw that the couple were actually here to view the properties at Thompson First, he wanted to seize the opportunity to satirize and make fun of them.Charlie sneered as soon as he heard Harold’s satirical tone towards Claire and himself. “What? If someone like you is able to view the properties at Thompson First, then why can’t we come here today?”Harold sneered before he said, “The reason why my family and I are able to come here today is because we can afford to purchase one of the houses here! Can you even afford any of the houses here?”Charlie smiled before he replied, “How sure are you that I can’t afford any of the houses here?”Harold snorted at this time. “If you can afford to buy any of the properties here, then I am a ghost! Do you know how much the houses here cost? Even the smallest house in Thompson First is one hundred and

At this time, the sales lady walked up to Charlie before she said, “Sir, if you’re not going to buy a house today, then please leave now. Do not affect the other customers who are here to purchase our properties today.”Claire sighed before she tugged at Charlie’s sleeves and said, “Let’s go, Charlie. Let’s have a look elsewhere instead.”Other people also started booing Charlie at this time. “If you are poor, then please leave instead of being an embarrassment here!”Charlie remained motionless before he said with a smile, “Do you know why all of you cannot afford to live in the villas here? It’s because you’re all short-sighted and there’s no way any of you will be able to afford to live in a villa in this lifetime!”Harold continued insulting Charlie at this time. “Hahaha! Charlie, are you really going to continue to lie here? Is there anyone here today who isn’t richer than you?”Charlie raised his brows before he said, “Harold, you keep saying that I’ll never be able to affor

The sales lady was panicking because she was worried that she would lose her job since she had offended Charlie. However, Charlie simply waved his hand before he said in a faint manner, “Don’t worry, this is a small issue. I won’t hold this against you.”After that, Charlie continued speaking, “By the way, could you please explain what Villa A05 is to all these short-sighted people here today?”The sales lady hurriedly explained, “The villas in Thompson First are divided into four different categories: A, B, C, and D. The scarcest category is category A, which has the largest area. The villas in category A consists of three levels, including a basement. There is also a private elevator within each villa, with each villa measuring more than one thousand square meters large. It also consists of a front and rear courtyard. The price of one of these villas is over one hundred million dollars. This is the most expensive villa in Thompson First and perhaps even in the entire Aurous Hill!”

It was Charlie’s mother-in-law, Elaine!The person accompanying Elaine at this time was none other than her husband, Jacob!Charlie and Claire were a little surprised at this time. Why were they here?Claire hurried forward before she asked, “Mom! Dad! Why are you here?”Elaine replied, “Your aunt and uncle called us to inform us of their intention to check out the houses at Thompson First as they’re intending to buy a house here. They invited us here to help them look around today.”In fact, Elaine glared at Charlie as she said this sentence because she felt a little annoyed at this time.Elaine did not want to come here today because she had just gotten into an argument with her daughter last night as she wanted to move out of their house. Unexpectedly, she actually received a phone call from Christopher, asking her and her husband to come over to check out the properties with them.What did they want them to check out? Weren’t they just trying to show off the fact that they
