The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4487

Marianne blinked and then used her slender and fair hand to gesture in the direction of the beginning and end of the food street as she said with a smug smile,' This entire street is mine!"

"Wow!" Charlie could not help but sigh in admiration as he said, "This boss is so generous!"

Marianne smiled and said, “You have to pay some form of price if you want to keep some people and things.”

After saying that, several street vendors on the side of the road saw Marianne and greeted her respectfully.

"Hello, Miss Marianne!" "Miss Marianne, you're here!'

"What would you like to eat tonight, Miss

Marianne?"

Marianne greeted them one by one, and she could even refer to everyone by name.

After she was done with the pleasantries, she said to Charlie, "Hong Kong’s economy has been growing rapidly over the past few years, and this kind of place would have been long bought and ready to be redeveloped. At that time, the owner of the street increased the rent several times overnight after the vendors' leases expired in order to drive these vendors away. Many of the vendors could not afford to pay the rent, so they gradually withdrew their stalls one after the other. So, I went to beg my father to buy this place and give it to me no matter what it was. As long as he was willing to buy this place to give to me, I would allow him to marry that woman." As Marianne spoke, she spread her hands and laughed as she said, "So, I got my wish, and I became the boss of this street. All the stalls on this street as well as all the stores on both sides of the street are mine! How about that? Isn’t that impressive?”

"Impressive." Charlie laughed and said, "So, you invited these vendors to come back after you bought this street, right?"

"Yes." Marianne nodded and said, "I invited each of them to come over, and I promised them that I would never raise the rent as long as they were still willing to operate their stall here. Not only that, but I would also pay for all of the water, electricity, cleaning, and maintenance costs if they operate here. In recent years, the prices have risen sharply, and the rent that they pay every year is actually not enough for the maintenance costs here. My dad's

company has to subsidize a portion of it every year."

Charlie smiled and said, "It seems as though your dad still treats you well."

Marianne nodded and said, "He is very good to me because he has always been very eager to gain my forgiveness over the many years."

Having said that, the expression on Marianne's face gradually became cold as she said seriously, "But it was really painful when my mother passed away. I can still remember the scene from her illness to her death, so I will never forgive him in my life.”
