Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 162

Abbey flashed a bright smile as she walked up and linked arms with Irving. "What a coincidence, bro! Running into you guys here."

Madge returned the greeting with a smile, "Hey, Abbey."

"What brings you and Roseanne to the property office? Don't tell me you're house hunting?"

"No, we actually bought a place yesterday."

"Oh, I see..." Abbey gave her a once-over, the smile on her lips growing wider. "We're here to check out the properties, especially this Lakeside Gem. It's all the rage online! I heard it's tough to get a unit on the higher floors. People are lining up, trying to sweeten the deal with the sales team, but no luck!"

"Thankfully, our cousin Lauretta knows a real estate agent here, and she managed to snag us a spot."

"Just placed the order and signed the contract."

As Abbey spoke, her eyebrows seemed to reach for the sky.

Her grin was practically uncontainable, especially upon seeing Madge's shocked expression. The thrill and pride she felt were at their peak.

Bet you didn't see that coming, huh?

“Jealous much? Too bad you don't have it.” She thought.

Madge was indeed surprised, but what really caught her off guard was the fact that Irving and Abbey were switching houses again.

Didn't they just move into a new place three years ago? Why move again?

"…Well, the last one was a bit too small. Didn't quite fit our needs, you know? And the amenities and environment here are just unmatched."

Madge nodded, "So, what are you planning to do with your current place? Sell it, or maybe rent it out…?"

Irving was about to respond when Abbey cut in, her lips curling into a sly smile. "We're not planning to sell or rent. We're not exactly strapped for cash, so why bother? Just going to keep it as a property investment. Let its value increase, right?"
