"You don't need to be worried about that. The owner has not visited here for more than a decade."
She played with her silver hair while contemplating. "That's good then," She spoke up after a few seconds, "I will complete the payment procedure. Give me the documents to this house."
"Yes, they will be sent to your current address. When do you plan to shift here, Miss?" The broker could barely keep his eyes off the beautiful woman standing in front of him. Her every move, her every word aimed an arrow right at his chest.
Mia glanced at both the glass house perched on the edge of a cliff at the Leven peak. The beautiful seaside view and the cool atmosphere, "I will move in within this month," A smile formed on her face as she flipped her silver hair back before getting inside her car and driving off leaving the man with his heart galloping like crazy.
...
Yu Jinhai wanted to stay with his Grandpa since Shi Luo was busy with her work recently and the old man looked too pitiful and lonely to the boy so as a responsible elder sister, she threw him at the old man's place.
While Yu Mei was driving back to the Ren Mansion, her mind wandered off to her discussion with Jun Zixuan from yesterday.
They talked a lot about his past in the Jun family and the members of the Jun Family and in the end, she even managed dozed off on him.
Back to the point, with his special health condition, he was able to recount most of the events from the point he started remembering things. While he was completely nonchalant about it, it was self-torture on her part.
She wondered if she had masochistic tendencies. On one hand, she was so curious about all of it yet the more she heard, the more her heart ached. But everything concluded that the hell of that Royal Family successfully managed to get on her bad side.
One can only wish that they don't show up in her baby's life or else this battle won't end bloodless.
Her car came to a screeching halt when an SUV stopped in front of it. She frowned before alighting the car.
"You want to murder me now that your parents' plan of destroying my reputation did not work out?" She folded her arms and leaned back on the car as she watched the Yu siblings making their way towards her.
The prince and princess of the Yu Family seemed to have lost the glow from their faces. Dark circles, tired and pale faces, and even their outfits were unkempt.
Yu Yan still managed to glare at her though.
Yu Mei was a bit speechless. Thoroughly vanquished but still so full of airs.
"You can mock us if you want. After all, we have nothing now. We are so below your status, President Leanne. Now, you have a powerful family to back you up and there is also your influential employer. Do mock us, insult us, and trample on us. Haven't you always wanted to do that?" Yu Yan spoke through gritted teeth as she clenched her fists.
"Yan'er," Daniel narrowed his eyes at his sister.
"Have you lost a few screws from your brain or are you simply traumatized? Why are you so desperate to be insulted?" Yu Mei shook her head as she sighed disappointedly, "I could have done that but unfortunately...I am a fairy in this mortal world. I just can't bring myself to be so mean."
"You..." Yu Yan almost puked a mouthful of blood. She had the urge to strangle this shameless woman even though she might end up in prison later.
Fairy?
With the character of a devil, she is calling herself a fairy? A fucking fairy? Where did she get that confidence from?
"We are here to apologize for everything you went through. Mother and Father....there were many things that they hid from us and we got to know about all that recently. I..." Daniel's usually arrogant and cool voice had humbled by a great degree, "Let us not get to that. We were here to apologize for our inappropriate behavior towards you for all these years. We had treated you like garbage but we have now reduced to our rightful place, I guess," He tried to laugh but that came terrible.
Yu Mei blinked. Your apology came too late as the one you treated so badly all these years has already passed away.
"Whatever has happened can not be reversed. Don't dwell on the past. Move on with your life," She said with a stoic expression on her face.
Yu Yan and Dylan were visibly surprised, "You are forgiving us so easily?" They could not believe their ears.
"Well, there is nothing to forgive about,'' Yu Mei glanced at Yu Yan, "She stomped on my hand, I pushed her off the terrace. You guys schemed against me and your parents are behind the bars because of me. We don't owe anything to each other." She never expected them to come here to apologize to her in the first place.
But if she looked into her memories, it was always Madam Yu who has been unfair to the previous owner, and as her kids, they also learned to do the same. But since they already realized their mistakes, she was not interested in dwelling on the past.
Moreover, their sufferings were evident from their faces. After their parents were arrested, they obviously had to face countless trolls, the reporter's wrath and as per the reports, they also went through countless investigations to prove that they were innocent and not involved in their parents' illegal activities.
Her words rendered the Yu siblings speechless.
Yu Mei hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "In fact, I have something to ask you and I want you to tell me the truth."
The Yu siblings exchanged glances, "You can ask," Daniel paused for a moment before adding, "If we know about it, then we will be honest," He spoke up after contemplating a bit.
"You should know about it I guess."
