Chapter 70 Niko Is Missing
When Penny mentioned the person, Cason's anger was rekindled and his tone was dissatisfied. His guilt towards Penny's mother lessened.
Penny no longer wanted to argue with him. "Philip did not commit any wrongdoing."
Cason's face darkened again. He desired to express his opinion, but he resisted and expressed his disappointment towards his daughter with a strained expression.
Penny and the agent got into the car directly, ignoring the gaze behind them.
The agent drove in front, noticing that Penny looked displeased and quickly changed the subject.
"This house is in a good location, and the surrounding amenities are complete. A three-minute walk will bring you to a large underground shopping center. In addition, the setting is peaceful, and the schools from kindergarten to high school are excellent. But I have even better houses available, albeit at a higher price."
Penny wasn't in the mood to think about the price right now. She no longer wanted to be harsh on herself. So what if it was a little pricey?
Finally, the agent took her to an upscale residential area.
It was called an upscale residential area because the housing prices here were indeed very expensive, with better locations and better amenities than the previous one.
But it was called a small upscale residential area because every two years there would be news about the legal wife catching the mistress.
So in the eyes of many people, those who lived here were indeed wealthy, not because they were personally rich, but because it was a place where the rich hid their mistresses.
Naturally, Penny didn't care about these comments. She fell in love with the environment inside the community at first sight.
"Ms. Stuart, the selling price of this house is 14 million dollars. The owner spent 7 million just on the decoration. Because the owner was in a hurry to go abroad to take care of her children, she is selling it at the price of a basic house. Such a price for this property is hard to come by."
Penny also took a look at the decoration. It was the style she liked. And the house faced the atrium with a beautiful view. The building was a duplex with a total of five floors, and this unit was on the top floor. The other unit shared the common area was occupied by a young girl.
Penny really liked it. Even though she knew the agent's words might be exaggerated, she readily paid a deposit of several million dollars. The remaining amount would be supplemented once her flat was sold.
"Okay, when Ms. Stuart completes the down payment, I'll give you the keys directly."
After signing a simple contract with the agent, Penny returned to Hills Villa.
As soon as she walked in, she noticed Anika getting ready to leave. Anika looked relieved as she saw her return, as if she had found a savior.
"Ms. Stuart, Niko is missing."
