At that moment, the front desk attendant leaned back slightly in her seat, letting out a short sigh like she had something better to do. Her eyes didn’t leave them as she spoke again, her words sharpened with pity coated in sarcasm.

“Well, I’ll be honest with you,” she said, twisting the tablet in her hands like it annoyed her just to talk to them. “You can try and come back in a month’s time. Who knows? Maybe another cleaning position might open up. That’s the best advice I can give you for now.”

At that moment she paused, then waved her hand toward the exit. “So, now, please just go. There’s no need standing here anymore.”

At that moment, Tyler’s calm expression slowly dissolved into something firmer. He took one step closer to the desk, his face still polite but his tone sharp and unmistakably firm.

“Look,” he said, keeping his gaze locked on her, “you’re just one of those mannerless young ladies who think having a front desk job means you get to decide who is worthy to walk throug

    Even though, from everything she had seen so far, she could already tell that Tyler might not be able to afford such a high-class building like this, she still couldn’t say anything. She didn’t want to offend the director or make any mistake that could cost her job.So, keeping her face calm and professional, she looked at Tyler and his mother and gave a soft smile.“Well,” she began slowly, folding her hands in front of her, “since this place is also being considered by another person… someone else said he likes it too… it will have to go through a bidding process.”Immediately Tyler’s mother turned slightly toward her, a bit confused. “Bidding?”“Yes, ma’am,” the manager replied politely. “It means, the one who offers the highest price will get the building.”She looked at Tyler now. “So if Mr. Tyler truly wants this place, he has to win it. The highest bidder will be the one to walk away with it.”At that moment, Tyler didn’t flinch. He didn’t even blink fast or shift his legs. He

    His voice was calm, but firm. Assured.The manager, sensing the shift in energy in the room, didn’t waste time. With a quick motion, she tapped on the screen remote. The lights dimmed slightly, and all eyes shifted to the large display at the front of the room.In an instant, a high-resolution image flickered onto the screen, a tall, modern structure with glass panels gleaming under the sunlight, sharp clean lines, and an aura of quiet prestige. It stood tall on Z Street like it belonged to royalty. The moment it came into view, a quiet awe fell over the room.It was, without a doubt, a magnificent building.And it fit the description and everything.Upon seeing the digital image of the building, with its elegant architecture, pristine glass exterior, and the interior rotating on screen in a detailed projection, complete with polished marble floors, chandeliers, and gold-accented stair railings, Tyler turned to his mother with a soft but confident smile.“Mom Do you like it?” he asked

    The room quieted for a moment—not out of respect, but out of more curiosity. Even London, caught off guard by Tyler’s poise, stopped laughing for a second, his arms crossed and his eyes narrowed.At that moment the manager hesitated slightly, her fingers brushing the tablet in her hands. “Well…” she began, nodding slowly, “there is an alternative, Mr. Tyler. But I must be honest with you it’s not a store. It’s something far more significant.”The silence in the room deepened.“It’s one of the premium commercial buildings located at the core of Z Street,” she said. “It includes four floors, already fitted for high-end luxury retail, with additional space for customization. It’s not just for rent, it’s under private listing for acquisition. Only two people have shown interest in it so far because of the price tag.”At that moment London scoffed. “Here we go again,” he muttered, rolling his eyes.The manager looked at Tyler seriously. “But I’ll be frank with you, sir. It’s extremely expe

    At that moment, hearing what Tyler just said, London couldn't just help himself, he burst into mocking laughter that rang through the luxurious hall like a drumbeat of contempt. His voice echoed, drawing the attention of everyone once more as he stepped boldly into the center of the room, his expression twisted with arrogance and disdain.“Who the hell do you think you're talking to, boy?” London sneered, waving a hand toward himself. “You think you're standing in front of one of your poor neighbors or some street seller? This is me—London. I don’t entertain delusions, especially not from someone like you.”The room grew tense again. Some of the seated guests chuckled quietly. Others nodded with approving smirks, feeding off the energy London was throwing into the air like firewood into flame.“Everybody here knows you can’t afford a damn thing in this place,” London continued, his tone rising in pride. “This isn’t some open market where you come and price pepper, Tyler. This is Z Str

    At that moment, sensing the tension in the air and the disgusting look on almost all of the guests’ faces, the whispers, the exchanged smirks, the outright glares, it was clear to the manager that things were quickly escalating. She stood there frozen for a second, not because she didn’t know what to say, but because she had expected this all along. The moment she laid eyes on Tyler and his mother, she already knew. Judgments were bound to come, especially from people like London who felt that the world belonged only to them.She let out a soft sigh and took a slow step forward. The murmurs didn’t die down, but her voice cut through the room loud enough to command attention.“Enough,” she said calmly but firmly. “ Please Everyone take a seat.”Some obeyed out of confusion, others out of sheer curiosity wanting to know what on earth could justify allowing those two to be in the same room as them.The manager cleared her throat. “Mr.Tyler and his mother would not be here if they were no

    Then she glanced briefly around the room before continuing, “Only those who are pre-qualified or who have come with an approved invitation will be given first-hand access to tour the top-tier spaces in Z Street and its surrounding sector. After this short presentation, our staff will hand out the list of properties along with the eligibility requirements.”At that moment London relaxed into his seat, thinking this was finally where real businessmen could speak. Meanwhile, Tyler sat still, his expression calm, not even flinching. His mother still seated beside him, quietly taking in everything, still a little unsure how all this was going to unfold.The manager looked over the room again and then added, “Let’s begin.”However, before the manager could even proceed with the presentation, a sound interrupted the silence, loud and full of arrogance.London stood up, slowly pushing his chair back with a screech that drew every eye in the room. A proud smirk tugged at the corner of his lip
