They arrived at Chloe’s villa. Ryan was stunned. He had no words to describe how luxurious the villa was. He estimated that with this level of luxury, the current market value of this villa might exceed 15 million dollars. Chloe said, “It’s a little messy. Please don’t mind it.” “It’s not messy. Actually, it’s very neat,” Ryan praised. Then, he asked, “Didn’t you hire a servant?”
Chloe said, “I like peace and quiet. There are no servants. Every day, the hourly employee would come to clean the room on time and cook for me. I won’t let her come over today. I’ll cook.” “You’re cooking personally?” Ryan asked. “Of course.” Chloe smiled. “I’ll do it with you. I’ll help you,” Ryan said. “No, no, I’ll do it myself. Make yourself comfortable. I’ll be done soon.” Chloe ducked into the kitchen. Ryan sat on the sofa.
The villa was especially luxurious, but there were some places that were a little messy, especially in the corner where there was a children’s play area. There were many Barbie dolls and various toys on the ground. The hourly employee probably hadn’t come to clean them up yet. However, although the toys were a little messy, the ground was very clean. Suddenly, Ryan’s sharp eyes spotted a gold brick. He was so shocked that he almost exclaimed.
He doubted his own eyes. Was that a toy gold brick? He couldn’t help but walk over and pick up the gold brick. There were the words “AU9999” on it. This was excellent pure gold! He looked at the other toys and saw a few more gold bricks. Some were behind the Barbie doll, and some were behind the little car. Holy shit! Chloe was actually using gold bricks as toys for her child?
He really wanted to pick up a few gold bricks and secretly put them in his pocket. Afraid that there would be surveillance cameras in Chloe’s living room, his eyes flashed. He picked up all five or six gold bricks and placed them neatly on the coffee table in front of the sofa. As soon as he put it there, he saw the document “Equity Agreement” on the coffee table. Seeing the sensitive words like shares, he could not help but secretly open the agreement.
