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

When Christopher heard his words, he thought that Jacob was deliberately trying to mock him. Therefore, he could only glare at him as he said in a furious tone, “Jacob, enough is enough! Why are you saying all this? I know that you are going to move into the villa at Thompson First. Are you trying to show off now?”Jacob was stunned at this time. “Huh? I am going to live in a villa at Thompson First? What are you talking about, Elder Brother?”Elaine was also very confused at this time. “Brother, is there a mistake here? Are you sure there’s no misunderstanding on this matter?”At this time, Christopher pointed his finger at Charlie before he said with a dissatisfied expression on his face. “Your son-in-law is the owner of the biggest villa in Thompson First! You can ask him all about it!”Elaine and Jacob were dumbfounded at this time. After that, they stare at Charlie in astonishment before they asked in disbelief, “Charlie, is what your uncle said true? Are you really the owner

Wendy and Christopher could not accept this fact at all. It felt as though they were being slapped and humiliated in public! They really wanted to bury themselves in a hole right then.This was insane!Just then, an old man suddenly walked out of the villa.The old man walked towards Charlie before he asked in a respectful manner, “Hello, are you Mr. Wade?”Charlie nodded before he replied, “Yes, I am. May I know who you are?”The old man replied, “Hello, Mr. Wade. I am Mr. White’s butler and I am responsible for taking care of this villa. I am Barry Landon but you can call me Barry. I am in charge of the maintenance of the villa.”“Barry?” Wendy stared at him in shock as though she had just been electrocuted.Wasn’t Barry her fiancé, Gerald’s butler? Why was he here?Did this villa belong to the White family?If that was the case, then why was it given to Charlie?Wendy quickly asked, “Barry, what is going on? Does this villa belong to the White family?”Barry replied, “Yes
Chapter 181
Gerald was also stunned.The villa at Thompson First was the most valuable property owned by the White family.This house was owned by Zeke, the current head of the White family, who was Gerald’s uncle.Zeke was Kevin’s father, and Gerald’s father was only second-in-command.Even though Gerald and his father really loved Thompson First, there was no way they could afford such an expensive villa!Therefore, Gerald felt extremely shocked and uncomfortable when he heard that his uncle had actually given this villa to Charlie. He immediately told Wendy over the phone, “Wendy, give me a minute. I will ask my uncle about this.”Wendy hung up the phone before she glared at Charlie as she gritted her teeth and asked, “Charlie, what did you do? How did you trick Uncle White into giving you this villa?”At this time, Charlie replied in a light manner, “Mr. White offered me this villa on his own accord.”“You are lying!” Wendy suddenly blurted out. “You’re not related to the White family

”Charlie, is this… did the White family really give this villa to you?” Jacob asked Charlie in surprise when he finally regained his senses.“Yes, dad,” Charlie replied as he smiled.“This… you…” Jacob stuttered. He felt as though he was still dreaming.Claire hurried over to her father before she said, “Dad, why don’t you sit down and rest for a while? Since Mr. White has already explained the situation to everyone, everyone should know clearly now that this villa rightfully belongs to Charlie.”Claire specifically emphasized the words ‘rightfully belongs’ because she wanted her relatives to hear her loud and clear.Hannah held her hand against her chest in disbelief before she muttered, “The White family must be really insane! If they wanted to give this villa to someone else, why didn’t they give it to me instead?”Hannah was not the only one in disbelief because the rest of them were also very shocked at this time. In fact, Harold was extremely jealous of Charlie.He could n
