Chapter 498
When Stella was done with the checkup, the agent from when she went to look at houses, called her.
"Ms.Jewell, I have sorted out some houses according to the requirements that you mentioned last time, all of them are located in the areas that you circled but from various house types and residential areas.I've sent the pictures of the different house types to your WhatsApp, so you can have a look.Of course, if you're free, we could set a time and date for me to bring you to see the houses in person.Then, you can have a first-hand view of the lighting and whatnot.What do you think?"
Stella had contacted the agent back when she first asked for a divorce from Keegan.
For a few months, the agent had been calling Stella persistently.
During that period, Stella stopped replying to the agent's invites because the divorce was on hold.She never expected the agent to still remember her and recommend houses to her from time to time.
Stella was a person who would easily give in to constant coaxing.
Stella also believed that no matter the industry, there was no such thing as an easy job.
Since the agent spared no effort in recommending houses to her, she felt like she should not decline.
Moreover, Stella was indeed thinking about buying a house lately, and she had nothing else to do for the day.Hence, she replied, "I'm free today.Can we go?"
The agent hurriedly replied, "Of course, we can.Where are you now? I'll get a cab and pick you up.These houses are near to each other, so we can finish viewing in the afternoon."
Stella told the agent her location, hung up, and dialed Felicity's number.
"I'm going to check out some houses later.Do you want to come?"
Felicity was overwhelmed with work in the cast.So, she sighed and said, "I'm afraid I can't leave work today.You go ahead.Remember to send me pictures.I can help you pick the houses."
"Okay.Then, see you tonight."
The agent was a young girl in her early twenties and was around the same age as Stella.
She had short hair, and her build was quite small and skinny.
And, she was a clever person.
The agent showed Stela five houses in one afternoon.
Although the houses were all located in the area that Stella requested, all five houses had some aspects that Stella was not satisfied with.
Some were from old residential areas and lacked security; some were from newer areas, but the occupancy rate was relatively low and the houses were roughcast houses.
Others were involved in false advertising when they were trying to make sales, and the owners filed a lawsuit against the developers and the property management.
Stella spent the whole afternoon looking at houses but she still could not pick out one that she liked.
The agent asked her, "Miss, which house do you like the most?"
Stella answered, "They're all alright."
