Chapter 362: Who Told You I Don’t Have Money to Buy a House?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Due to Dominic’s relationship, Connor and Cindy can be considered old acquaintances.
However, he doesn’t have a good impression of this materialistic woman.
But he didn’t expect to encounter her again here!
Cindy’s family weren’t wealthy, and they also have a house in the city where they come from.
But in order to satisfy her vanity, she insisted that her parents buy her a house.
This way, after graduation, she would have her own house, which she could boast to her classmates.
At first, her parents didn’t agree to buy a house, but she made a scene, and in the end, they had no choice but to agree to take a loan and buy a small apartment for her.
The family of three, Cindy included, visited several real estate projects in Porthampton, and finally decided to buy a house in this building because of its good location and complete facilities, with a promising increase in value in the future.
If Cindy wanted to upgrade to a larger house later, she could sell this one.
So, yesterday they paid a deposit of twenty thousand dollars, intending to come today and make the down payment.
But as soon as they stepped into the sales office, they heard Mr. Mason say that all the houses here had been sold out, and even if they paid the deposit, it was useless.
Although he promised to refund the deposit, Cindy and her family were upset. After all, the house they had chosen was gone!
“Can’t your company keep its word? We had already chosen the house yesterday, and we paid the deposit. How can you say the houses are gone now?” Cindy shouted at Mr. Mason.
“1 have already explained clearly just now. The houses are still available, and there are still many, but Mr. Connor intends to buy them all. If you can pay the remaining balance in full now, 1 can discuss it with him and let him sell the houses to you. But if you don’t have the money, then I’m sorry,” Mr. Mason replied impatiently.
After hearing his words, everyone finally understood what was going on.
The houses in the sales office had been bought up by someone, that’s why they were kicked out.
And those people who originally came to see the houses now gathered around him, showing a gossipy expression, wanting to see who was so wealthy and bought so many houses at once!
However, Cindy didn’t care about this matter. She pointed at Mr. Mason and scolded, “Your sales office clearly has no integrity! I will sue you!”
“If you want to sue, then go ahead…” he replied indifferently and then walked away.
After seeing his indifferent attitude, she couldn’t help but feel despair. She quickly turned her head and looked at her parents.
“Cindy, we don’t have that much money now! We borrowed the down payment for the house, we don’t have enough to pay for the entire house. How about we give up?” her father advised in a low voice.
“Yes. What’s the point of you, as a girl, buying a house? When you get married in the future, let your boyfriend buy it for you!” her mother also chimed in.
“This is too despicable. So what if you have money? If you don’t want to sell it, we won’t buy it! Dad, Mom, let’s go to other buildings to take a look…”
Cindy also knew the situation of her family, they didn’t have enough money to buy a house in full, so she had to find a way to retreat gracefully.
“Mr. Connor, the contract is ready. Would you like to pay by card?”
At that moment, Chloe rushed over to Connor in high heels and asked softly.
“I’ll pay by card!”
He casually replied and took out the platinum card that Thomas had given him!
Thomas had told him that this card had no spending limit. As long as the amount didn’t exceed one trillion dollars, he could use it for any purchase. He had used this card when buying the car earlier.
When everyone saw him take out the platinum card, the crowds were shocked.
They never expected a young man like him who appeared to be in his early twenties could buy so many houses at once!
“This is too damn rich! He actually bought so many houses in one go?” “This is too damn rich! He actually bought so many houses in one go?”
“So young and already so wealthy, truly impressive!”
“This guy must be a rich heir who spends money without blinking!”
“Damn it, I worked so hard for the down payment, and he just bought the entire building without hesitation!”
The crowd began to whisper quietly among themselves.
Meanwhile, Cindy, who had already reached the entrance of the sales office, couldn’t help but turn around and take a look when she heard about the wealthy person who bought all the houses. But when she saw Connor, her whole body froze.
“The person who bought all the houses is actually Connor?” she exclaimed with wide eyes.
“How is this possible? When did he become so wealthy?”
The more she looked at him, the more incredulous she felt. Then she hurriedly walked toward him.
Initially, she thought she might have mistaken, thinking that Connor couldn’t be the one buying the houses.
But when she walked into the sales office and saw Chloe taking the bank card from him, she became certain that he was indeed the one who bought the houses.
“Connor!” Cindy shouted directly at Connor.
He turned his head to look at her and asked expressionlessly, “Do you have something to say?”
“What are you doing here?”
She walked up to him and asked him with a puzzled expression.
“I’m buying houses,” he replied casually.
“Don’t fool with me! How much money can a poor delivery guy like you make? How could you possibly afford to buy a house?”
“Miss, please mind your tone when speaking. This person here is a VIP of our sales office!”
Chloe reprimanded Cindy expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Cindy glanced at Chloe and then pointed at Connor, shouting, “Let me tell you, you’ve all been deceived by him. He’s not some rich heir, he’s just a poor delivery guy who likes to pretend to be rich. How could he have the money to buy all the houses here?”
“Who told you that I don’t have the money to buy houses?”
If it were the old Connor, he would have chosen to ignore her, but now he wasn’t worried about his identity being exposed, so he naturally spoke without politeness.
“Do you not know whether you have the money or not?” she replied disdainfully.
“I was originally thinking of giving you the apartment you just booked, out of respect for Dominic, but since you said that, then I’m sorry. You won’t be able to buy any of the houses here. I’m taking all of them!”
He exclaimed with an exceptionally domineering tone, then turned to Chloe and said, “Swipe the card!”
“Alright, Mr. Connor!”
Chloe nodded quickly and inserted the bank card into the credit card machine.
Cindy was startled by Connor’s sudden burst of dominance.. She stood frozen in place, her gaze dazed as she looked at him, not understanding where he had found the courage to say such things!
