"Tell me your conditions." Callum knew things would not be so simple. After all, he did not think Ivory agreed to marry him because she fell in love at first sight. She must have a lot of demands.Ivory hesitated for a moment. Then, she said, "We can announce to the public that we’re a married couple, but privately, we’ll have nothing to do with each other.""Go on," Callum replied."You can't have any bad intentions or force me to do anything. We can't live in the same room. Even if we must, you can't sleep on the same bed as me.""Anything else?" Callum smiled. He knew Ivory refused to marry him. She just wanted him to put on a show so she could get Salem's investment for her family."You have no right to interfere in whatever I do," Ivory added.With a faint smile, Callum asked, "What do you mean by that?""I mean, if I have a crush on a man, I can go out with him, and you can't meddle in my love life. Of course, if you fall in love with a woman, I won't stop you," Ivory answered.

After Callum agreed, Ivory and Abby despised him even more. They could not believe he accepted such unreasonable demands. It was so undignified. What a loser!Ivory took out a business card from her bag and handed it to Callum. "Here, you can find my number on it. Give me your bank account number, and I'll send the money.""Okay, thank you!" He took it and smiled."Son of bitch! How can you spend a woman's money? Shame on you!" Abby glared at Callum."I feel happy to be cared for by a rich lady. Do you have a problem with it? Or are you jealous and also want to be pampered? Sadly, I think no one will be interested in you," Callum said."You weirdo!" Abby was speechless.Ivory frowned and said sternly, "All right, Abby. Stop fooling around!" Then she looked at Callum and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"After a moment of hesitation, Callum asked, "I have a question.""Go ahead.""I can see that you don't want to marry me. Is it because I am poor or because you don't like me?"

Ethan's friend was very irritated. "Mr. Geller, what do you mean by that? My membership has been revoked?"It was very difficult to get a membership card for Jacques Restaurant. To get a gold card, Ethan's friend spent millions eating here. But now, his membership was suddenly canceled. This was insane. The young man was pissed off."Mr. White, I'm sorry. This is my boss’s decision. I can do nothing about it," Dean replied.Ethan knew how important this membership card was to his friend and how important his friend was to him. Ethan attended the birthday party to please his friend because Ethan's father wanted to bid on a big project from Mr. White's company. Ethan told his friend about this in the private room, and they had reached an agreement.However, after Ethan tried every means to please Mr. White and get this project, Mr. White's membership was canceled because of what Ethan did to Callum. Ethan felt too embarrassed."Mr. White, I’m sorry for that. I hope you’ll still cooperat

The saleswoman was taken aback. After staring at him, she laughed with her hand covering her mouth. The other employees of the sales office also had a fit of giggles, looking at Callum with disdain.Suddenly, the saleswoman walked up to Callum gracefully in her high heels and asked, "Oh, bumpkin, do you know how much a house costs here? You are aware we only sell villas of at least three hundred square meters, right?""I had no idea." Callum shook his head.The saleswoman continued, "Didn't you ask me why I was so sure you couldn't afford a house here? All right, let me tell you. Even the cheapest villa costs more than five million. Do you think you have enough money to buy it? Do you think you are qualified to come to places like our office? Stop dreaming!"Callum pretended to be startled and exclaimed, "Oh my! Five million?""Shocked, huh?" She sneered. "A loser like you can never afford a villa of our company even if you work hard for ten lifetimes. So you better not waste time her

Nancy, of course, did not dare disobey Steve. Reluctantly, she took Callum to the coffee table. Still thinking Callum could not afford a villa, Steve soon left the sales office.Daisy stood where she was, nervous. After all, she asked Callum to come here. Now he offended Nancy. Daisy believed Nancy would fire her after he left. Daisy did not know what to do. With her head down, she just fiddled with her shirt.After walking to the coffee table, Nancy skillfully used a laser pen to point to a house at the edge of the residential area map. Curling her lip, she said, "Now we only have this two-story villa of three hundred square meters. Every square meter costs twenty thousand. So it should be six million in total.""Six million?" Callum was stunned."Yes, six million. It’s at a discount because the villa is near the end of the neighborhood. Look at the ones over here. Each square meter costs more than thirty thousand. It's a pretty good deal," Nancy stated. She looked at Callum and cont

"What? You want to buy this villa?"Upon hearing Callum's words, Nancy was dumbfounded, and then she burst out laughing.The other employees in the sales office also threw back their heads and laughed as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world."M-Mr. Bowman, it's okay. I can find another job. Let's go!"Daisy was very moved after Callum stood up for her. But she didn't think he could afford a villa worth six million dollars.Therefore, she also thought that Callum was just kidding.''Enough is enough! Stop it!"Suddenly, Callum interrupted the laughing people.Nancy stopped laughing. She looked Callum up and down and said softly, "You want to buy this villa, do you? Well, we have given you a discount, so you can't buy it in monthly installments. If you want this house, pay 2 million dollars as a down payment now and the other 4 million within a week. Otherwise, back off!"On hearing this, Callum was taken by surprise. "2 million dollars as the down payment?""Hah! You can’t

Daisy was stunned by what Callum said, while Nancy also looked at Callum with a puzzled look.Just now, Callum said he didn't buy this villa for himself. Then he should have bought it as a gift for someone else. Why was he asking Daisy to come over?At the thought of it, a bold idea came to Nancy's mind. Oh my God! Is Callum going to buy the villa for Daisy?Daisy stood where she was in a daze, at a loss what to do. She still had not recovered from the shock. Callum spent six million dollars on buying that villa. That was really out of her expectations. It was so incredible."Daisy, what are you doing there? Just come here! Hurry up!"Seeing that Daisy was standing motionlessly, Nancy couldn't help shouting to her with a frown."Yes, Ms. Wood!"Daisy finally recovered from the shock and walked up to Callum nervously. She asked timidly, "Mr. Bowman, what can I do for you?"Sitting leisurely on the sofa, Callum replied in a calm voice, "Just sign the contract."Upon hearing Callum's wor

With a stunned look at Daisy, Callum stood there speechless.He couldn't believe Daisy thought he gave her the villa because he wanted to keep her as a mistress. She got him wrong. He didn't have such an intention at all.Looking at the silent Callum, Daisy got anxious and hurriedly added, "Mr. Bowman, you may rest assured. I don't like hanging out with boys, and I've never had a boyfriend. I am still a virgin."Callum looked at her up and down carefully. She was a breathtaking woman with a lovely face, broad hips, small waist, and heavy breasts. In her denim shorts, her fair legs looked long and straight. Her eyes were sparkling, she looked adorable. It was just that her clothes were a little shabby. Callum believed if she put in some effort, although she wouldn't be as beautiful as a stunning woman like Ivory, she would be much more charming than Carol.If it were in the past, Callum might really be tempted by such a beautiful woman when she threw herself into his arms.Callum had I

"Forget it. I have classes tomorrow, and I'm not in a hurry to buy a house."Just when Nancy was thinking about how to seduce Callum after she took him home, Callum suddenly interrupted her thoughts.Callum's words really took Nancy aback, and some signs of embarrassment flitted across her beautiful face."Mr. Bowman, are y-you sure you don't want to have a look?" Nancy asked Callum in low spirits."Yes, I have to go. Bye!" Callum replied indifferently and turned to leave.After all, he was not in a hurry to buy a house, so he didn't think it was necessary to go there right now. Besides, he didn't know what was on Nancy's mind.When Callum was about to leave, Nancy hurriedly reached out to grab him by the arm. She said in a soft voice, "Mr. Bowman, I'm so sorry for what happened today. I shouldn't have said those words to you. I apologize..."Callum turned to look at Nancy and replied in a flat voice, "No issues. You don't have to apologize."''No, I must. I'm really sorry! Please for

Callum stared at his mobile phone in a daze as he lay on the bed. No matter how he tried, he could not log into that account, and now, someone pretended to be him and talked with Celia's fans.Apparently, his account was hacked.Callum was confused. There is no money on that account. Why did someone steal it? Could it be Richie?An idea flashed across Callum's mind.He soon vetoed his guess because the person who hacked his account did not promote other live streamers in the name of Callum.According to Celia, Richie was the boss of a live streaming company, and he wanted Celia to work for him. Hence, if it were Richie who hacked Callum's account, he would definitely promote his company's streamers by using Callum's popularity.Weirdly the person who had hacked the account went offline just after giving Celia some gifts. It made Callum even more confused about what that person was trying to do.Callum held his mobile phone in his hand and studied it for a long time. But he still could
