Chapter 167
After getting off the plane, I found that there were few call logs on my cell phone.
Besides Lisa's call, other calls were from the real estate agency.
I called Lisa first and told her about the situation over the past few days. Then I called the real estate agency.
When the staff of the real estate agency received my call, he was so moved that he was about to cry.
He told me that a lot of people had checked my house.
One of the clients said that she was willing to pay me all at once.
It surely was definitely the best solution for me.
The real estate agency and I made an appointment suitable for both of us. After hanging up the call, the real-estate agency went to contact the buyer who was willing to pay me with the full amount.
Soon, he called me back. And we agreed on the schedule.
When I got home, I put down my luggage and
changed my clothes. Then, I went straight out of my house and visited the real estate agency.
After I arrived at the real estate agency, I saw a familiar person as soon as I went inside.
It was Kelsi Clark.
"Why is she here? Could it be that she..."
When I was confused, the agent came over and greeted me, "Miss Archer, you are here. Let me introduce you to each other. This is the buyer, Ms. Kelsi."
"City Y is so big. And there are so many people. I never expected that the one who wanted to buy my house would be Kelsi Clark."
Kelsi was surprised as well as she said, "Miss Archer, is it you who wants to sell your house?"
I nodded, "Yes."
Seeing us greeting each other, the real-estate agency immediately said, "Oh, do you know each other? That's great. We'd better not delay it any longer. Let's set off to check the house now!"
We walked to my house together.
Kelsi was as elegant as she used to be. Wearing an elegant dress, she behaved so elegantly that I couldn't be on par with her.
On the way to my house, Kelsi asked me, "Miss Archer, the location of this residential quarter is good. So is the property management here. And the house structure here is also scientific. Almost no one here is willing to sell their house. I consulted the agency for a long time. But no one sold their houses. Why did you sell it?"
"I'm in urgent need of money."
Kelsi was gentle. And her tone was gentle and mild, making others feel that she was easygoing.
Hearing her question, I didn't hide anything from her.
"Oh..."
Kelsi didn't ask me anything further.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. I asked, "Ms. Kelsi, are you buying a house for investment?"
"Investment? No, I have a..." Kelsi paused and seemed to think about it for a moment before saying, "I have a cousin who has been abroad for a long time. In recent years, he has plans for returning from abroad. Fearing that he won't have a suitable place to live when he comes back, I find one for him first."
Fearing that her cousin couldn't live in a suitable house at that time, she wanted to
find one for him first.
Her tone sounded so casual that it didn't seem that she was talking about a house which would cost her tens of thousands of dollars.
It was as if she were talking about renting a house or purchasing a bag.
Even so, it was her business. What I had to do was to get more than 10 million dollars into my pocket.
We arrived at my house.
At first glance, Kelsi saw the leather suitcase in the corner and asked me, "Miss Archer, are you still living here?"
"No! I'll move out in a few days."
At first, I thought that Kelsi would mind that I was still living here.
Unexpectedly, she said, "My cousin won't come back soon. Even if I purchase your house, Miss Archer, you don't have to move out in a hurry."
Hearing this, the agent next to us smiled even more happily, "Oh, acquaintances can communicate with each other with more ease."
Although Kelsi said so, I couldn't do so. And I said, 'TH move out as soon as possible."
Due to the fact that the buyer was Kelsi, the process went on exceptionally smoothly.
I left all the furniture here. Kelsi immediately paid the money. We signed the contract and went to the Real Estate Bureau to complete the transferring procedure that afternoon.
After Kelsi left, the real-estate agency helped me contact another company, which was in charge of renting a hotel-like apartment.
It happened that a house with one living room and one bedroom was vacant. Although the rent was a little high, the furniture there was complete. And the relative daily necessities, including water, electricity, and the internet, were all well-organized. I just needed to pay the rent on a monthly basis.
Living there would be more convenient than living in a guesthouse.
I decided to rent the house as well as move out on Sunday.
After resting for a day, I went to work the next day. I found Nancy's phone number from the company's contact lists. When I called her, her phone was unexpectedly turned off.
At this time, Dion called me to his office.
He said with satisfaction, "Charlotte Archer, I originally thought you would be the last one. But I didn't expect you to be the third one.
Good!'
After chatting with him for a while, I found an opportunity to ask him, "Mr. Lance, can I ask you what Nancy's phone number is? I called her phone number listed on the company's contact lists, only to be reminded that it's an invalid number."
"Nancy?" Dion touched his chin and thought about it for a while, "I heard that she seemed to quit the competition and resigned after she came back."
"Resign?"
"Yes, I've seen her boss who is also very sorry for her." Speaking of Nancy's boss, Dion looked at me with interest, "What happened to you there? Why did she come back early and quit her job?"
"Nothing." I felt so sorry for Nancy.
I wouldn't say much about her matter.
Because I have handed over my work to someone else before. I was getting new clients again. And I was sort of idle.
I looked at the number of 14 million dollars in my bank account.
After careful calculation, I found that I had to pay more than 20,000 dollars a day, including Rosy's hospitalization expenses, the cost of her breathing machine, the care fees, and so on.
Most of the expenses were for a ward in Holy Spirit Hospital.
14 million dollars seemed like a lot of money. In fact, it couldn't even last for two years!
What should I do two years later?
I surely had to discuss this matter with the Archer Family.
I made a phone call with Jeremy and Tracy, asking them to meet me at a coffee shop in the evening.
Although the two of them didn't want to be instructed by me, a junior, I had something on Tracy. And I told Jeremy that I had money.
That evening, both of them came.
When I entered the cafe, I saw that both of them were here. So I said first, "I sold the house in Unit No.1, City Y."
"What?" As soon as I finished my words, Tracy got angry, "That house is worth a lot of money. My mother bought it for you. Now you sold the house. And the money has to be divided by us."
"Hehe."
I knew Tracy was such a person.
"Let her finish her words." Although Jeremy's face didn't look good, he understood that I wouldn't have sold my house for no reason.
I said, "I'll use the money to pay for Grandma's hospitalization expenses."
"Are you crazy?" Hearing my words, Tracy was unhappy, "How much do you have? You can give them to us so that we can do business and make money. It's a waste of money to spend it treating your grandmother. She's dead!"
I looked up at her and questioned, "She is my grandmother. Isn't she your mother?"
Tracy's face instantly turned red. And she said unhappily, "Yes, she is. But so what? It is us who are alive that is the most important!"
"Charlotte Archer." Jeremy looked at me, "How much did you get after selling your house?" "14 million dollars." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
I told him honestly.
"It's your filial piety to pay for your grandmother's hospitalization expenses. But now the company of your aunt and I is in debt. No way that we can help you. After all, once the company is closed down, all the employees of our company will lose their jobs." Jeremy first made his position clear and continued, "Even if you pay all the hospitalization fee with your money on your own, you can hang on for at most two years. What are you going to do two years later?" "Can't your company even make it after two years?"
I came here today to talk to Jeremy and Tracy about this matter.
I could understand that they weren't in a good situation now. However, how could they be the same two years later?
