Chapter 50: Luxurious Penthouse
Meanwhile, in the manager's office at the Paradise Square."A big congratulations to you, Mr. Wilson. Office Building A at Paradise Square now officially belongs to you!" Chelsea said as Lawrence signed the final document, making it officially legally binding.Clap!Clap!Clap!The few people inside clapped after seeing this."Thank you, Manager Chelsea. From now on, I will leave the management of that building to you. I will just focus on collecting the money. All I request is for corruption and bribery to not be the main thing here, but rather making the building go higher." Lawrence said with a broad smile as he was clearly in a good mood."Hahaha! Not a problem, honorable Mr. Wilson! Leave that to me! Whosoever accepts bribery will have no choice but to cough out ten times that amount and be kicked out of the building!"Chelsea said eagerly; he was pleased to see Lawrence being so agreeable and readily spout those self-righteous words.Of course, Lawrence knew it was hard for Chel
Chapter 49: All Because of Yao Yue
Hearing Lawrence's admission, Yao Yue could not help but be silent for a full ten seconds.Recalling the poor, haggard-looking Lawrence and comparing him to the man standing before her, she noticed a stark difference between them.Although Lawrence still wore simple clothes, there was now an aura, a confidence, and a look about him that made it seem like he was someone with a powerful background.Sensing how the silence had turned into an awkward moment, Lawrence cleared his throat and shifted the conversation. "You are here to renew the lease?" he asked."Yes, Mr. Wilson. Mr. Walker is one of the tenants," Chelsea quickly explained, seeing that neither Cena nor Yao Yue was speaking."Alright. Since you know our class president, I would be remiss if I did not let you renew it at ten percent below the market price!" Lawrence thought for a moment as he smiled at Yao Yue.He did not know that Cena had rented privately at a higher rate.Chelsea smiled silently at this decision, casting a
Chapter 48: Law... Lawrence?
With that, the two quickly prepared and headed for Paradise Square. Thankfully, there was no class today, meaning Yao Yue and Lawrence were free to go wherever they wanted.Ultimately, they met at one place.Lawrence, who had just woken up in his small rental apartment, did a few push-ups, freshened up, threw on some neat, simple clothes, and then hailed a cab to Paradise Square.He had come back late last night and didn’t have time to buy new clothes. All he could hope for was that nothing humiliating would happen today.It was already past the morning rush hour, so it only took Lawrence half an hour to reach Paradise Square. After paying off the driver, he stepped out and immediately spotted the towering office building that—starting today—would belong to him.After taking a moment to reflect, he headed toward the management office of the square. However, the place was massive, one of the largest commercial hubs in Light City, and he eventually got lost.“Uhm, excuse me, can you tel
Chapter 47: Cena and Yao Yue
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "By the way, the rent for this month is due soon. That boss might also come for it too, right?"Hearing this, the others’ eyes lit up.The office building was in a prime location, with all sixty-six floors long rented out. Most tenants paid annually, but some paid monthly."Here’s what we’ll do. The sales department should send a message to that boss, asking him to come by tomorrow to collect the rent," the middle-aged Chelsea instructed. "Notify the security department to stay alert these days. We must ensure nothing goes wrong during tomorrow’s handover. If you encounter someone named Lawrence, be sure to be polite and not offend him!"Everyone understood the importance and didn’t waste any more words on that part.But someone suddenly asked a question, "I wonder if he’s in his sixties?""Maybe he’s some foreign investor in his sixties.""He must have old money; young people don’t buy buildings these days, they prefer onli

"Landlady, I will pay. Just give me your account number and I’ll pay all the year’s rent and add three times the amount to it," Lawrence said, voice calm but eyes cold.He was already tired of all this drama. Good thing he would be moving out either tomorrow or the next day.The room went quiet for a second before laughter broke out. The landlady actually bent slightly forward, clutching her waist as if holding her ribs together."You? Pay three times? Hahaha!" she scoffed, the sneer curling up like she’d smelled expired milk."Lawrence, you can’t even pay one month without begging for mercy. Stop joking before I really tell these boys to warm you up! You know I've pitied you since you came from an orphanage and didn't make you pay that much. I heard you took your classmates to a high-end hotel and you dare still hold my payment?! Do you believe I can have you beaten right now?"The three thugs chuckled, exchanging looks of open contempt. One even rolled his shoulders as if warming up
Chapter 45: Landlady
"Who the hell do you... Si... Sir... Mr... Albert?!" James, who had turned around in rage at the intruders, suddenly went limp with shock.How could he not recognize the number-one richest man in Light City?A few years ago he had been fortunate enough to meet Albert at one of those grand end-of-year parties and, although he had not talked with him because the difference between them was huge, he still remembered his face.Seeing the same man before him looking at him in rage, his expression turned to fear and doubt.Did... did Jasmine’s scream bring the owner of the hotel here?"Daddy!"But upon hearing what Jasmine said, his legs nearly went limp as he felt like a thousand lightning bolts were striking his brain and his skin, making him unable to react.Not only him but the other three men. Looking at Albert's sharp brown eyes and nose and comparing them to Jasmine, they truly looked alike."It's over. I'm doomed."They all thought simultaneously."You have thirty seconds to tell me
