Mira paid generously for bigger jobs, but Elara always refused money for the small things, insisting she was just helping out as a friend.
Since Mira didn't own much to begin with, and they were all quick on their feet, the move was finished in record time.
They unpacked the essentials first, leaving the rest to organize later.
By the time the real estate agents arrived with the deed, the group was already prepping dinner in the kitchen.
"Wow, you guys moved fast!"
They had originally planned to drop the paperwork off at the old two-bedroom unit.
The two agents—a man and a woman—were young, around Mira's age, and had gotten along well with the group over the past few weeks.
Mira smiled. "We couldn't wait to stretch out in the bigger space, so we just went for it. The paperwork came through faster than expected. I thought it would take a few more days."
"Since you mentioned you were in a hurry, we put a rush on it and pushed the office a few times. Normally, property deeds don't clear this fast."
The female agent was in her early twenties, dressed in a sharp business suit that hugged her curves, with a bright, sweet smile.
"I really appreciate it," Mira said.
Rachel handed the two agents glasses of water.
"As long as you're happy with it," they said as they prepared to leave. "If you ever need anything else in the future, Miss Mercer, you know who to call."
Mira nodded. "Actually, if you come across any prime real estate listings, let me know."
The male agent perked up instantly. "Could you give us an idea of what areas you're looking at?"
"Anywhere in the city is fine, as long as it has good transit access, a solid layout, and is a newer build. Nothing too old. Ideally, something just like this unit, so I don't have to deal with renovations."
She wanted to invest in real estate to build a safety net against future market fluctuations. Besides, property values were practically guaranteed to skyrocket.
"Understood. Thank you for trusting us, Miss Mercer. We'll reach out the second we find something."
Thrilled at having secured a wealthy long-term client, the two agents left in high spirits.
