Chapter 176
Gina was utterly envious–Chris‘ mansion overlooked a portion of the entire mansion district too!
She promptly whipped out her phone and posted it on social media, with Peter following suit, although he took photos of other mansions as well.
Chris watched as they did so, his vanity highly satisfied.
He even brought a pot of tea. “Have a drink, Mrs. Lane. You can take the photos whenever you want–you’re always welcome here.”
“Really?!” Gina and Peter were overjoyed, almost unable to believe it!
Chris nodded. “Of course. You can come over whenever I’m home.”
“Oh, that’s wonderful!” Gina exclaimed, not forgetting to extend an invite in return. “You can come visit our manor whenever as well, and teach Helen how to make more money.”
Helen folded her arms before her chest. “Teach? We’re working in different businesses.”
Gina frowned right then. “What do you mean, different?! Chris started out with nothing too, and he owns a billion dollar company now!”
Helen turned in surprise toward Chris–he was that successful in just three years?
“What’s your business? It sounds lucrative,” she said.
“Oh, just a little apothecary stuff. Interested?” he asked, staring fixedly at her.
“Nope…” Helen shook her head. “But you weren’t studying medicine. Why would you suddenly work in that field?”
Caught by surprise, Chris scratched his head and stammered, “Oh, uh… My partner is in the business, so…”
Helen was going to press him further but Gina cut her short, pointing at the hilltop mansion as she asked, “Who owns that mansion on top of the hill, Chris? Could it be Governor Quill?”
Chris promptly walked over to the window. “Actually, no, even though his family developed the entire mansion district. You see, they offer these mansions as gifts, and I’m sure you can also tell by now that the higher the mansion is built, the more important the owner would be. That’s why the hilltop mansion hasn’t been given off. Whoever gets it must be hugely important to the Quills… and since they are very important people themselves, they wouldn’t be interested in some paltry gains.”
Gina nodded repeatedly—it was obvious even from the size of the hilltop mansion, which was at least twice the size of Chris‘ mansion.
Still, after a moment, she murmured in confusion, “Hold on… I just saw a light from over there.”
“A light? No way,” Chris snorted skeptically.
“No, I saw it too!” Peter quickly said.
Chris was left perplexed. “Huh… Maybe Governor Quill gave it away recently? I wonder who

it’d be, though…”
Both Gina and Peter quickly nodded, with Gina adding, “Yeah, well, you’d eventually make their acquaintance since you’re neighbors.”
