What a stroke of luck.
"Aunt. If it wasn't for his kind heart and generosity, you wouldn't have been able to live in such a nice house."
Raina Tang attributed it all to Hans Shen. She felt that if it weren't for Hans, Leah Lin would be living in the house where someone had died instead of here.
"Yes, I am supposed to thank Mr. Shen," Leah said, but she didn't care. She understood that these two were saying that because they were jealous of her.
Looking at Leah's smug demeanor, Gloria Lin felt bad about it. She couldn't accept that the poor relatives she wouldn't pay attention to in the past would be living in a mansion.
Although she was unbalanced, Gloria didn't say anything more. Even though Leah lived in the mansion, it didn't change the fact that she was poor.
A rich person had not only a house but also connections.
Leah might have a house, but she didn't have any connections at all.
From Leah's words, it was easy to know that Hans, the richest man in City C, gave Leah the house because he wanted to keep her mouth shut.
So his friendship with Leah was not that deep.
Gloria's mood was cheerful again.
"Leah. You have a nice house. Do you mind if I stay here for a few days." Gloria had planned to stay in a hotel with Raina for a few days while City C talked business. But now, they'd be out of their minds to stay in a hotel when there was a ready-made mansion.
"I don't mind, you can stay as long as you want."
Leah didn't think much of it and agreed.
"Okay, give me the keys." Gloria held out her hand.
Leah handed her the key.
"I'll take another key as well." Gloria pointed to the remaining key in Leah's hand again.
Leah puzzled, "I only have a total of two keys, and I can't get in if I give them both to you."
"What are you getting in for? Isn't the house for me to stay in these days?" Gloria was dissatisfied, she looked at Leah.
"Huh?" Leah looked confused.
"You mean the house is only for you and Raina for the next few days?"
"Or else?" Gloria looked at Leah like she was looking at an idiot and said, "You know what Raina and I are like."
"We both like to be quiet. Living with outsiders is torture for us. So for the next few days, you and your family will stay at the hotel."
"Let me and Raina stay in this house for a while. We'll give you the key when we get back to City Z." Gloria snatched the key from Leah's hand, whether Leah agreed or not.
This annoyed Leah a lot, but she pushed down her anger, "This house has four bedrooms, one each for you and Raina will be enough. The remaining two are for Maura and us. Maura has been injured and has trouble moving..."
