Chapter 431 Failed Endeavour

“Yikes. He’s the deadbeat who married into our family. I told you about him, don’t you remember? He’s embarrassed our family on way too many occasions for years now,” said Skye loudly. She turned around and shot Faye a dirty look.Ruby was furious upon hearing Skye’s insulting remark. She gnashed her teeth in anger. Roman’s eyes were shaded with a tinge of darkness. He met Faye earlier and after learning that Zayn was Faye’s husband, he was immediately filled with hostility towards Zayn. “So it’s him huh, you’re right and he really doesn’t look like much.”“Hah-hah, of course. You should think about this, if he actually had any form of competency, wouldn’t he be doing better for himself?” Skye chuckled in delight. When she was done dissing Zayn, she said pretentiously, “Yikes, Zayn. I’m sorry for being so blunt. I’ve always been a person who speaks my mind, so I hope you won’t take that to heart.”Meanwhile, Stella turned around and said to Ruby, “Waine, Ruby, I thought both of yo

Chapter 432 Just A Villa In Barrow Cove

Instantly, everyone shifted their gaze towards him. Faye made it a point to leave upon hearing that. Her body started trembling ever so slightly out of the blue. It was as if Zayn’s voice struck straight to her heart. Ruby was stunned for a moment. She turned around and saw Zayn walking over with long strides. He cracked into a smile and repeated himself again, “Who’s saying that we can’t afford it? It’s just a villa in Barrow Cove.”Just a villa in Barrow Cove?That statement sounded a little too arrogant, right!Not only Stella and Skye but the rest of the onlookers in the surroundings had an unfavorable impression of Zayn when they heard his statement. They found Zayn to be too arrogant. They could afford to buy villas in Barrow Cove but they still had to take out mortgages on these properties so they definitely could not make a high-sounding statement like ‘just a villa in Barrow Cove’! Moreover, they could see that Zayn was dressed in cheap attire from head to toe and he

Chapter 433 Talk Is Cheap

Her words told a different story, one that contradicted the disdainful smile playing on her lips. It was obvious that she did not believe that Zayn had the capability to buy a house and assumed that Zayn was only putting up a front at most. Yes, Zayn had always upheld his image as a deadbeat during the four years of him marrying into the Carter family. He was incapable of accomplishing any success yet he embarrassed the family countless times. His wife Faye’s reputation in Waltz City was constantly really poor because of her deadbeat husband.She refused to believe that Zayn had the ability to hand over so much money to buy a villa in Barrow Cove regardless. Even if he were to take out a mortgage for the villa, he would still need to pay a few hundred thousand dollars up front as well!Stella joined in the conversation immediately as well. She began to make sarcastic remarks at Zayn with a disdainful and despising tone that she did not have any intention to conceal. Ruby swallowe

Chapter 434 Take Me To The Most Expensive Ones

“Sure.”Zayn agreed without the slightest tinge of hesitation. His directness astonished Roman for a moment. However, he let out a sneer soon afterward because he assumed that Zayn was only misleading others on purpose. “Let’s not discuss further then and make the payment.” Roman whipped out his bank card as well then he was preparing to make payment and buy the villa with 2.3 million dollars. Zayn smiled and said to Faye, “Which one do you like, we’re just going to take it now.”Faye immediately pulled Zayn to the side and said softly, “Zayn, what the heck are you doing huh. We are totally not planning to buy a villa in Barrow Cove at all!”The smile on Zayn’s face remained unchanged. “We can’t just let Skye and her mother underestimate and condemn you, right? You're the chairman of a company now after all, it would be a shame for anyone else to hear about this, right?”Faye bit her lower lip. “I don’t have the money.”“It’s fine, I do.” Zayn smiled brightly. The sight of h

Chapter 435 Action Speak Louder Than Words

They became even more delighted and excited just thinking about it. Zayn was planning to get the best villa in Barrow Cove anyway, just that he was doing it with some added attention now. It would not affect him for the slightest bit. On the contrary, Zayn found Skye and her family members’ presence rather interesting and he was rather eager to see their expressions later. Zayn had always been acting like a useless good-for-nothing deadbeat when he lived with the Carter family after marrying Faye. He had no lack of experience being bantered by Skye’s family and now that he managed to turn the table successfully, he had the opportunity to let them have a taste of their own medicine. He would never miss this opportunity for anything, of course. Moreover, it also allowed him to hold his head high to Ruby and Waine. Hence, many people followed the realtor to head to Phase 9 to view the houses there.One had no choice but to acknowledge that the villas in Phase 9 of the most presti

Chapter 436 Reactions Are Also Part Of Our Customer Service

Everyone was struck by how ludicrous—bordering on surreal—it all was. “Transaction complete” for a whopping figure of 6.06 million?!It took a mass of hundreds five full seconds to finally reel back from their bewilderment, evident in a loud, collective sharp inhale of breath.In the end, it took Zayn himself to break the shocked silence. With a faint smile still hanging on his lips, he told the agent, “I’ve signed my name, so please get the papers ready as soon as possible. I’ll be staying here tonight.”Indeed, Zayn had graced all of the contracts with a signature scribbled by a relaxed, confident hand. In response, the hall exploded in furor.“Holy cow!”“I didn’t get it wrong, right? He paid it, in full, right? It’s 6.06 million! That’s more than 6 million! How the hell?!”“I must be dreaming—I gotta be dreaming this whole thing up. This guy looks like a food delivery guy! Where the hell did he get all this money from?!”“You don’t think we’ve been wrong this whole time… tha

Chapter 437 Consumerism Is A Sport

Not 60 thousand, or 600 thousand. No, it was 6 million! That was more or less the market value of Roman’s company! And yet, Zayn bought the house of an equivalent price and paid it in full, right there and then!Alan was starting to wonder if he was having a really weird trip.Meanwhile, Skye and Stella were so gobsmacked, their faces bordered on comical. Zayn seized the moment and remarked with a smile, “Well, it’s your turn now, Skye. You’ve got the funds prepared, I trust? The villa next to us seems pretty good, too. It only costs about 5.44 million.”In a flash, the agents sprung, documents readied. Here it was, another handsome sale to reap!Skye and her companions did not share their enthusiasm at all. In fact, they felt their hair standing on its end while their hands grew cold. Even now, they could not form an explanation for Zayn’s ridiculous wealth. Where did he get all this money from? It just flew in the face of logic! Was this really some sort of hallucination? Skye an

Chapter 438 Ruby’s Two Biggest Traits: Vindictiveness & Shamelessness

Skye was utterly bemused.Never in her wildest imagination had she ever thought Roman would leave just like that. She had exhausted all of her wits and wiles to stroke the man’s ego enough to make him agree to buying her a villa in Barrow Cove. This was supposed to be the house for their life after marriage! And yet now, her beau basically abandoned her and fled. This was not her imagined scenario at all!“H-hey! Why did Roman flee?!” Stella cried out, her mood soured.Skye sprung out of the door, hoping to catch up to him, but he was already nowhere in sight.Now, she was utterly mortified.There was no way Ruby would ever pass up a chance to exercise her vindictive nature. Like a veteran in the art of schadenfreude, she unleashed a flurry of caustic bite-backs, mimicking the kind of jeering Stella and Skye had done just earlier.“Aww, but he was soooo sure he was going to buy a grand villa just now, wasn’t he? Why did he run away instead? I mean, it’s only like 5.6 million! Def

Chapter 439 Just A Family Lamenting Over A Lost Golden Goose

Their conversation did not take place very far away from where Zayn was, which meant every line they uttered was within earshot. He heard everything as clear as a bell.He could not stop his lips from curling into a pleased smile. Ruby had disparaged and griped about him at every opportunity she had over the years that when it finally transformed into gushing awe, Zayn could not help but feel very gratified.Faye bit her lips and sniped a glance at Zayn before striding out of the door.If she were being honest, Faye knew she was being crass. Her personal conflicts aside, she admitted that Zayn had helped them out. And the fact that she left without saying thanks… Well, she seemed like a thankless boor.Problem was, she could not possibly regard Zayn as though they were just two people having a normal interaction anymore—not when Zayn had become so exceptional!The only thing she could do now was to leave his physical vicinity as quickly as she could to salvage her fast-fleeing cal

Chapter 440 Poor, Punctured Punching Bags… And Physics?

Faye was infuriated. “What nonsense are you prattling about again?! You know the two of us have been sleeping in separate beds this whole time! He’s never even laid a finger on me before, let alone sleep with me. Honestly, the two of us were never a functional couple. He didn’t have an ounce due to pay!”Her seething retort managed to render Ruby speechless for a while, but her bitterness over what she lost in Zayn quickly reloaded the words back into her mouth. “Honestly? You’re also one to blame here. I can’t believe that after so many years, you’ve never consummated your marriage until it’s over! You were a terrible wife, you know that?”Her words poured so much fuel to Faye’s rage that she actually laughed. “Oh, now it’s my fault for keeping myself clean, huh? Since the very first night he’s joined the family, you’ve been nagging and demanding and belting out this ceaseless litany about keeping Zayn at bay from me. And now you’re complaining about us not consummating our marriage
