Winner Takes All novel Chapter 125

“Are you nervous?” Mr. Ward asked.

Jack put on a smile and replied, “What do you think?”

Mr. Ward gently rubbed his chin and said with emotion, “Young master, the son-in-law eventually has to meet their father and mother-in-laws.”

Jack didn’t know what to say in response to that.

However, it would be a lie to say that he was not nervous at all.

Although he had met Amber’s parents when he was fresh in university all those years before, but it was different from now.

Back then, he was just Amber’s friend, but now he was her boyfriend.

To make things worse, he was someone who had a divorce previously.

This fact alone was enough to degrade his image in her parents’ heart.

Ever since he parted ways with Amber last time, they didn’t really get in touch with each other often. Now that they were reunited, he also needed to meet Amber’s parents.

What would happen this time around?

The more Jack thought about it, the more he felt uneasy.

When he was able to get three housing areas booked in advance last time, he was even able to keep his calm.

However, he somehow felt restless this time around when he was going to see Amber again.

Mr. Ward could see that Jack was very nervous with the way his brows were all knitted up, so he laughed to calm Jack down, “Young master, the way you are looking right now is exactly how your father used to look like when he was seeing your mother’s family members a long time ago.”

“My parents?”

Jack looked towards Mr. Ward.

Mr. Ward froze momentarily as a strange glint flashed in his eyes. Then, he waved his hand to dismiss his own words, “It is just some old history which is not worth mentioning anymore.”

Not worth mentioning anymore?

Jack felt doubtful when he heard that.

Since he never had a father all along, he knew very little about his parents’ past.

Mr. Ward’s words suddenly piqued his interest in this subject.

However, Mr. Ward quickly ended this topic before it even started. There was something ominous about this whole thing.

The next morning, the attention of the citizen in the whole city was focused on West Shantytowns the moment the sun appeared in the horizon.

After an encouraging period of pre-sales, almost everyone knew that DT real estate agency would pre-sell three housing estates.

The explosive pre-sales event of Dragon Garden from not long ago was still fresh on everyone’s mind, and it was only a brief period of time after that eventful day before this pre-sales occurred with much fanfare. This time around, three housing areas were open for sales!

Based on the housing prices of the houses in West Shantytowns, even if three housing areas were opened for booking, it barely put a dent in their popularity.

When Dragon Garden was opened for sale last time, all units were sold in just one day, which disappointed a lot of people preparing to grab one unit for themselves.

This time around, with three housing areas being opened for booking, the number of units was large enough to reignite the passion of those disappointed people from last time.

Buying a unit this time would mean a great bargain for these people, so naturally they were very enthusiastic about this event.

However, as Jack and his team expected, with the sales of three housing areas ongoing at the same time, everyone’s attention was readily dispersed.

Each housing area was being visited by many buyers and onlookers, but the crowd around each area couldn’t compare to the situation at Dragon Garden last time where the visitors had managed to form a long queue. The sight was magnificent.

After the ribbon-cutting ceremony that signified the commencement of the pre-sales was done, Jack immediately went back to the office building of DT real estate agency.

He sat in front of his computer and scrutinized the real time data that told him the actual sales volume of those three housing areas.

Although the transaction volume wasn’t especially outstanding, the data showed that it was actually rising steadily. With such a trend, it was just a matter of time before every unit was sold off.

“Jack, this event isn’t as exciting compared with that Dragon Garden event last time. I reckon the media probably would be at a loss of idea when it comes to creating a buzz out of this.”

Corbin felt a little helpless when he compared the atmosphere surrounding Dragon Garden from last time to this current event. He felt a little empty in his heart.

If they had planned separate pre-sales for each of their three housing areas, they would be able to recreate that buzz for several more times!

It was the prime opportunity for DT real estate agency to take center stage during this period of time!
