“Thank you, Jessica said in a happy mood.
After the landlord left, she still felt that this was a little unrealistic.
However, she received the new address from the landlord, only a five–minute walk from her school.
Normally, such houses enjoyed good sales.
The rent would be about three times more expensive than her current house.
But now, she actually got it at the original price.
More importantly, she could be the first to choose a room.
This feeling was as if she was suddenly standing under a lucky star.
Jessica silently repented.
She shouldn’t have constantly complained about the landlord’s stinginess.
He was actually a very kind old man!
Jessica immediately started packing her suitcase.
But she must have no idea that after the landlord left her room, he went straight to the alley in front, where a luxury car parked.
A young Calirinan man was leaning against the car.
“It’s been done. She has already agreed to move over.” When the landlord walked over, he could not help but take a few more glances at the car.
“Thank you. This is the reward I promised you.” Peter took out a thick envelope and handed it to the old man in front of
him.
The old man took it and tapped it gently.
After confirming that the amount was exactly the same as they had discussed previously, he immediately put the envelope into the pocket.
However, he was still curious about this handsome young man.
“You’ve done so much for her. Why don’t you go to her place and explain it to her yourself?”
The old man was also a young man decades ago. He knew immediately that this man was pursuing his tenant.
No one would bother to do so a lot for a strange girl.
Obviously, the old man was lying to Jessica just now. The demolition notification was also fabricated.
Moreover, the new house she was about to live in did not belong to him.
Actually, the owner was this young and handsome man.
“If she knew it was me, she won’t agree to move over.” Peter lowered his voice.
“Why?” The old man was curious.
“Because I’ve done a lot of stupid things before and hurt her so much.”
“Young man, don’t be discouraged. Since you already know your mistake, make up for it.
“This is a romantic city, and you’re a romantic man. You are bound to have a good ending.” The old man patted Peter on the shoulder.
“Thank you, Peter said with sincere gratitude.
After all, this old man was the first person to comfort him.
“So if you have some other jobs like this the next time, I am glad to help.” The old man’s tone immediately changed.
So his consolation just now was all to pave the way for future cooperation?
The old man did not seem to notice the change in Peter’s expression. He put on his hat and left chuckling.
The payment was worth her rent for three years.
Now, he was going to ask some fellas out for a drink.
Jessica packed her things and dragged her suitcase to the new house.
She did not carry too much, no need to call a moving company. She could do it herself.
However, when she followed the address and finally located the house, she could not help but be stunned.
It was so luxurious and gorgeous.
This was a three–story villa with gardens in front and behind,
It was much better than the previous one.
It turned out that Calirina was not the only country where people get rich overnight through housing demolition. The same. thing was also happening here.
When Jessica stood at the door with her luggage, she was still awe–struck in disbelief.
She tentatively entered the gate password that the landlord had sent her.
It actually opened.
This was the landlord’s new house! He was not lying!
Jessica then dragged her luggage in.
Because she was the first to arrive, the house was very quiet.
The first floor was a huge dining room, which was decorated in an elegant and warm style.
She immediately ran to the second floor.
Each room was decorated to her liking, especially the last one.
Although it’s not the biggest room, its window opened onto the garden.
There was a big sycamore tree erected on the lawn.
There was also a desk by the window, where she could view the lush trees.
The warm sunlight traveled through the leaves like rain and fell on the dappled grass.
Sometimes there would be a breeze that rustled the leaves.
This sound could quickly calm her down. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
This was perfect like a dream.
Jessica settled on the room almost immediately
Then, she told the landlord her choice.
The landlord replied with an ‘okay‘ and give her his new number.
“Afterwards contact me with this number. I’ve got a new one.”
Why he suddenly changed his number after getting rich?
Jessica didn’t think further. She smiled and added this new number to her contact list.
She sent a message and got an immediate reply.
And then Jessica started sorting out her stuff.
The house had already get cleaned up.
Jessica didn’t need to do any work but unpack her luggage..
In less than an hour, everything was done.
When she picked up her phone, she found that the landlord had sent her a new message with that new number.
[Do you like the new house?]
[I like it very much. It’s very beautiful here.] Jessica leaned against the window and looked at the scenery outside. She hadn’t been in such a good mood for a long time.
[That’s good. You can contact me if you have any problems in the future.]
The message came back quickly
Jessica was still not used to it.
After all, in the past, it would take at least half an hour for the landlord to reply to her message.
Sometimes, when he was drunk with his old friends, she had to wait until the next day to receive his response.
Therefore, later on, Jessica learned to change the light bulb and fix the toilet herself.
She even had to repair the door if it was broken.
Now that the landlord was so enthusiastic, it was probably because he had become rich overnight.
Therefore, he became amiable before his poor tenants.
Jessica replied with an ‘okay‘ and started to go about her own business.
Somewhere outside the house, Peter was staring at his new phone.
The screen showed the conversation between Jessica and the landlord.
Actually, he was the one who had been texting Jessica.
He asked the landlord to share his number with Jessica.
Because that was the only way he could contact her.
Peter hesitated for almost half an hour before sending the first sentence.
Peter watched this short conversation over and over again.
It had been almost two years, and he had finally got the chance to contact Jessica.
Peter slowly sat down on the sofa.
With the phone tightly held in his hand, he felt a sense of ease that he finally settled down after parting for so many years.
