Upon hearing Lilly's words, Isabela's face changed dramatically. "What's that supposed to mean?""What do you think I mean? I think I made myself clear! The house cannot be sold to you!" Lilly looked at Francis and continued with an air of righteousness, "Even though you have the full payment, I forgot to mention earlier that besides prioritizing full payments, we have another rule in Vientiane Bay—if someone buys a second house in Vientiane Bay, they also get priority!" Lily looked at Isabela with disdain, her nose high in the air."Do you know who Mister Kongo is? He's Francis Kongo, the executive director of Enfield Group in South City worth tens of millions! Besides this hundred square meter house, he has already bought a two hundred and thirty square meter house in Vientiane Bay! Naturally, he has the priority to buy a second house. Do you think you have the qualifications to compete with Mister Kongo for a house?" Lilly was fearless and smug.Liam chuckled in exasperatio
"Alright, I don't need to see any other types of houses in Vientiane Bay."Liam's voice suddenly rang out. He pulled out the Centurion Black Card that Howser had given him and tossed it in front of Lilly icily."I'll take the four hundred and thirty square meter house. Now that I have a house in Vientiane Bay, I should be able to buy that hundred-square-meter house. Or, do you have some new policy?""I..."Lilly was stunned. Clearly, she had not expected the turn of events.A mocking smile flashed across Lilly's face. She sneered and said disdainfully, "What are you thinking? Have you gone mad, wanting to buy a house? Do you think you can buy the most expensive house in Vientiane Bay with just a card? Do you even know how much that house costs? Now, you think you own a house in Vientiane Bay? Do you think I'm the one who's crazy, or are you out of your mind?"Lilly's face was full of ridicule.Isabela grew anxious as she quickly tugged at Liam. "Liam, what are you doing? Didn't
The extent of Howser's power was unknown even to Francis. However, he did know that Chester, who respectfully called Howser his teacher, had become the undisputed Underground Emperor of South City with the old man's help. Francis had only learned by chance at an event that Howser possessed the only custom-made Black Gold Centurion Card in South City. However, he had never imagined that he would see this card with his own eyes one day.Francis never doubted the authenticity of the card before him. In South City, no one dared to forge this card. The fact that Howser was willing to give his prized Centurion Card to someone else suggested that the young man in front of him had a far more terrifying identity than he had ever imagined.Recalling his earlier words and attitude toward Liam, Francis felt a chill run through his body. He raised his head and looked at Liam while forcing a pitiful smile. "I… I'm sorry! I didn't know my place. I failed to recognize a person of great stature.
Liam watched the scene unfold with growing tension. However, Eric had not finished speaking when a sharp slap landed heavily on his face.Francis's face turned deathly pale, his eyes bloodshot as he shouted angrily, "Enough is enough! If you want to die, don't drag me into it!""Mister Kongo... What's going on?"Eric, holding his reddened cheek similar to Lilly's, looked at Francis in bewilderment. He had no idea what had happened and had just been slapped!Lilly became upset. "Mister Kongo, what's the matter? If you have any grievances, just say so. Why resort to violence? We've been doing our best to help you!"Overcome with intense fear, Francis seemed almost hysterical.He pointed a trembling finger at the black card on the table and spoke sharply, "Help? Help with what? Do you know what that card is? That's a custom Centurion Black Card! It's worth more than the most expensive house in your complex, enough to buy an entire building in your development without a hitch!""Wha
"Mister Jenkins, listen to me..."Thinking Yuri had not heard her clearly, Lilly quickly followed him.However, Yuri did not even glance at her. He led a grand entourage straight to Liam.Lilly was stunned. The next moment, a smirk appeared on her face. "Let's see how arrogant you can be in front of Mister Jenkins!Lilly approached Yuri, feigning a pitiful look. "Mister Jenkins, did you see what just happened? We were hosting him properly, but he used his money to act lawlessly in Vientiane Bay!"She assumed Yuri had witnessed the incident when he entered."Because of a small disagreement, he hit us. Not only did I get slapped, but Mister Yellowstone did too!"Lilly lifted her head, speaking with righteous indignation. "Mister Yellowstone, you must stand up for us!"Eric, standing behind, echoed with resentment, "That's right, Mister Jenkins. I can testify! We need to show them that Vientiane Bay is not a place for them to behave recklessly!"Although Liam had not done anyth
With such a background, Lilly was utterly terrified. She had never imagined that the young man she despised and mocked as a poor nobody would not only pull out a black card that stunned Francis but would also turn out to be the owner of the corporation behind Vientiane Bay Real Estate.She had even ridiculed Liam for not being able to afford a house.Reflecting on everything that had just happened, Lilly felt her vision go dark. However, she was not the only one shocked. Isabela was also taken aback by the scene before her. Even though she had realized Liam was not ordinary after he helped her with the loan shark issues from the Tiger Gang, she had thought he was somewhat wealthy at most. Even when he dealt with the gang, bringing so many people, she merely assumed it indicated Liam had a broad network of connections. However, she never could have anticipated that Liam's power was that incredible!Isabela turned her head in a daze, looking around. The expensive property she
Upon hearing Liam's response, Yuri was utterly stunned. Clearly, it was not the answer he had expected.Liam suddenly recalled something and turned to look at Lilly, who was already frozen in place. He asked casually, "By the way, can I buy a house in Vientiane Bay now?""I-I..."Lilly trembled, her face drained of all color. Gone was the arrogance she had displayed earlier when looking down on those less wealthy. She stammered but could not utter a single word. Eric was equally paralyzed, his mind a blank canvas of fear.Yuri, noticing the odd scene before him, frowned and glanced at the nearby staff."What's going on?""Mister Jenkins, here's what happened..." Another salesperson, swallowing hard, cautiously glanced at Yuri and recounted the earlier events.Despite the salesperson's attempts to downplay Lilly's attitude, Yuri's eyes widened when he heard the recount. "Audacious! Who gave you the nerve to treat Grandmaster Burrey this way?" He glared at Lilly, his eyes blazin
Eric lay sprawled on the floor, feeling as though he lost control of his legs. The arrogance and haughtiness he and Lilly had displayed earlier were nowhere to be seen. Despite the scene unfolding before him, Liam remained indifferent as Lilly and Eric were dragged out of the sales hall. He did not even spare Lilly a glance. To him, neither Lilly nor Eric mattered.However, there was a fleeting moment of reluctance on Isabela's face. Recalling what had just transpired, she bit her lip and remained silent."Grandmaster Burrey, I will ensure you're satisfied with our resolution!" Yuri reiterated, worried that Liam might still be displeased.Liam shook his head slightly. "Just handle it. Make sure nothing like this ever happens again at Vientiane Bay."Yuri straightened up, his expression serious. "Rest assured, Grandmaster Burrey!"Yuri suddenly remembered and asked, "Oh, Grandmaster Burrey, you mentioned you were here to look at houses. Did you find a house you like?""Yes, I
