Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Eunice, i didn’t mean to target you. Can you not hold this against me?”
Mr. Mason noticed that Eunice was standing there in a daze and didn’t say anything, so he chuckled and reminded her.
“I’m not holding anything against you. I just want my salary!”
Eunice hesitated for a moment, then whispered.
“No problem. I’ll get the finance department to pay you now. You don’t have to worry about this!”
Mr. Mason quickly replied with a smile. As long as Eunice didn’t hold this against him, it was all good. After all, he didn’t want to offend the company’s vice president, Chloe, and the rich guy, Connor, because of this matter.
“As long as 1 can get paid!”
When Eunice saw Mr. Mason’s attitude, she was even more shocked. She opened her small mouth and muttered softly.
“Mr. Mason, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pay Miss Tanner her salary.”
Chloe, who was standing at the side, shouted at Mr. Mason impatiently. She brought Connor here today not to deal with these trivial matters. She did not want to waste time here because of this.
“Okay, I’ll inform the finance department now!”
Mr. Mason nodded sensibly, then hurriedly turned around and ran towards= the office.
After Mr. Mason left, Eunice looked at Connor with a puzzled expression. Just as she was about to ask Connor what was going on, she heard Chloe say to Connor, “Mr. McDonald, let’s not waste time here. I’ll bring you to see the house!”
“Alright!”
Connor gently nodded, then turned around and was about to follow Chloe to the sand box.
However, Connor had only taken two steps when he suddenly turned to look at Eunice and said softly, “Eunice, follow me too. 1 have something 1 need your help with!”
“You want me to help you?”
Eunice was stunned for a moment, then she ran to Connor’s side and asked in a puzzled tone, “Connor, what do you need my help with?”
“You’ll know later!”
Connor didn’t tell Eunice the truth and kept her in suspense.
“And Connor, what’s going on? Where did you get your clothes? Why was Mr. Mason so afraid of you just now?”
Eunice took this opportunity to ask.
“Eunice, don’t you know that I’m rich?”
Connor said to Eunice with a smile.
“You’re rich?”
When Eunice heard this, she was stunned again. Her face was filled with shock.
“That’s right!”
Connor looked at Eunice and smiled. However, he was not in the mood to explain this to her, nor was he in the mood to ask why she was working in such a place.
Because there was still one important thing waiting for him to do, that was, he had to spend the money before Yannick Lee took away the inheritance so as to leave a way out for his future life.
The reason why Connor asked Eunice to follow him was very simple. He was worried that if the house he bought fell under his name, Yannick and the others would definitely find a way to take it back.
Therefore, Connor planned to put these houses under Eunice’s name so that he wouldn’t have to worry about him and the others investigating.
Connor had also considered putting the house under Chloe’s name, but he felt that she was not very reliable. Moreover, in the face of such a large amount of wealth, a woman like Chloe might do something bad.
Therefore, he chose the kind-hearted Eunice. Other than her, Connor couldn’t think of a better candidate.
“Mr. McDonald, this is a newly developed building by our company. It is located in Solar Street in the southern new district of Porthampton. It covers an area of 57,000 square meters and has all the surrounding facilities, including schools, shopping malls, and hospitals. Moreover, this building is perfect in terms of location and planning.”
Chloe whispered to Connor.
When Connor heard this, he turned to look at Eunice beside him and asked with a smile, “Eunice, you’ve been working here for almost a month. What do you think of the houses here?”
“The houses here are indeed quite good, and there’s a lot of room for appreciation!”
Eunice replied seriously.
“Since you believe that is the case, then 1 don’t think there should be any problem!”
Connor smiled faintly, then turned to Chloe and said, “Chloe, help me ask how many houses are left in this building. I want all of them!”
“You… You want all of them?”
When Chloe heard Connor’s words, she was stunned. Her expression was one of disbelief.
According to the current housing prices in Porthampton, if he planned to buy all the remaining houses in this real estate, it would cost at least one billion!
A total of one billion. This was a number that ordinary people would not even dare to dream of!
Eunice’s mouth was wide open as she looked at Connor. She felt like she was in a dream, and it didn’t seem real.
“Connor, are you joking? This is a sales center, not a market. How can you buy houses just like that?”
Before Chloe could say anything, Eunice spoke first.
Eunice wasn’t saying that Connor didn’t have the ability to fork out so much money, but she felt that his decision was too hasty.
If Connor really planned to buy so many houses, then what was he doing here?
Wouldn’t it be better to get a piece of land and be the developer himself?
“I’m not joking! Chloe, go and ask how many houses you have. I want all of them!”
Connor looked at Chloe and repeated expressionlessly.
“Alright… Alright, Mr. McDonald, I’ll go ask now!”
Chloe quickly nodded and then ran toward the office in her high heels.
When Eunice saw Chloe leave, she seemed to be even more puzzled. She quickly ran to Connor and asked him loudly, “Connor, what are you doing? There are security guards everywhere in this showroom. If you dare to joke with them, you’ll die a miserable death…”
The kind-hearted Eunice thought that he was joking with the people in the showroom.
“Joking?”
When Connor heard Eunice’s words, he couldn’t help but smile.. Then, he said expressionlessly, “Do you think I’m joking?”
