Miranda knew that many high-end property developments required financial verification before they would consider showing the properties around. "So, what exactly are the requirements for VIP clients?" she asked."First, you need to be eligible to buy property in Lumberville—that's non-negotiable. Th
"Ms. Thompson…" Sophia sounded a bit flustered."What's with that look? Do you even know the verification process? What if something goes wrong and we let just anyone in? Can you handle that kind of responsibility?""I… think I know the steps. They covered it during training. If the verification goe
No matter what Sophia's introduction was like, Miranda had already made up her mind and was resolute.Sophia's excitement was palpable. "What will be your preferred payment method, then, Ms. Sutton?""Full payment."Lionel was taken aback. He had no idea Miranda was actually serious about buying a v
Five million dollars... To save that much, Lionel would have to work his entire life, living frugally and barely scraping by.Miranda felt a pang of guilt. "I haven't been sitting idle all these years; I've managed to save a little."At that moment, Mindy, who had been silent until now, suddenly spo
Lionel replied, "I'll place the order right now! First, we'll get the trellis since your mom loves wisteria. It'll be perfect for the vines… Then, we'll pick up a few hydrangeas. When they bloom in May, they'll make Xavier green with envy..."Xavier Scott was one of Lionel's colleagues. They taught
Jenny flashed a bright smile as she walked up to Mindy. She linked her arm with Harold's and said, "Well, look who it is! Fancy running into you here, Mindy."Mindy returned the smile. "Hey, Jenny.""So, what brings you and Miranda to the sales office? You're not thinking about buying a place, are y
Mindy forced a tight smile. If she could actually make money from her copyrights, she wouldn't have to wait for Miranda to buy them a villa.Sensing Mindy's impatience, Miranda stepped in. "Uncle Ronald, Aunt Jenny, my mom and I have some things to take care of, so we'll be heading out…""Oh, come o

Morning sunlight streamed into the room.Miranda's eyelashes fluttered, then her eyes slowly opened. She sat up, reached for the robe beside her, and slipped it on. Glancing over at Paul, who was still asleep next to her, she quietly got out of bed.In the kitchen, she was preparing breakfast. As sh
Zach straddled the man and threw a few more punches at him. Winter was flung to the ground by his violent shove and twisted her ankle. A sharp pain shot through her the moment she tried to move. "Zach, have you lost your mind? I'm calling the police!" she shouted. Her words made Zach pause mid-ac
The moment those words left Zach's mouth, the poker table fell into dead silence. The chaotic noise around them seemed to fade into the background as a deafening explosion went off in Hansel's mind. Only one sentence echoed over and over in his ear…Miranda had a boyfriend…Had a boyfriend…Boyfrie
On most days, Zach would sleep during the day and pick up Winter from work in the evening. Then, they would spend a wild night in the apartment.Afterward, they were too exhausted to do anything but sleep until noon.Zach cleared his throat. Yeah, he had been pretty busy."Well… work's been a little
"What the hell! Winter? Hello? Hello!" Zach shouted into his phone. But she had already hung up before he could finish cursing. That feeling was like…An urge to go, only to have to hold it back forcibly. Zach slammed his fist onto the steering wheel in frustration. The steering wheel, of course,
Paul said, "No? Then come over to my place tonight, and we'll take a closer look."Miranda was at a loss for words. "Here we go again!" she thought. As the two returned to the lab, they could hear Sandy's excited voice from afar, "Oh, we found it! Found it! Oh my god! Thank goodness! Thank the heav
Emilia was at a loss for words. After a long pause, she finally spoke again. "One last question. Did you reject my résumé because I truly wasn't a good fit, or was it because… I gave you that candle?"Paul answered, "You truly weren't a good fit."He hesitated for a moment before elaborating, "Your
Only a fairy like Miranda could tame a slave driver like Paul!Bryan added, "You really saved the day and brought peace on earth."Miranda chuckled. "You guys are really too dramatic."As Sandy took the plate of food Paul handed to her, she pointed at the computer screen nearby. "Let me tell you, we
The person on the other end was shocked. "How is that possible?"Realizing he might have overreacted, he quickly added, "Maybe… they just haven't sent out all the notifications yet. My qualifications aren't as good as yours, and my research achievements are much weaker. There's no reason I got selec
