Bruno did not expect Madeline would agree. He could not help but grin. He was so excited that he wanted to hold Madeline’s hands, but she rejected it.
"Mr. Grant, the real estate agent, is here with a buyer,” said Kingsley.
Hearing that, Bruno was so happy. He quickly went to welcome the real estate agent and the buyer in. He was so enthusiastic. It seems that he was the owner of the house.
Kingsley led the real estate agent and the buyer in and introduced them to Bruno.
"Mr. Grant, this is Mr. Cole, the real estate agent, and this is Mr. White who is interested in buying the house..”
"Nice to meet you, Mr. White. My house is well-maintained. If it weren’t for the urgent need for cash flow, I wouldn't even want to sell it…" Bruno began to explain as soon as the guests entered the house.
The buyer, Ethan White, was from the suburb. He was not tall and had a big belly. However, he seemed rich.
Having lived in Imperial for many years, Ethan planned to buy a house in the neighborhood for the sake of his children. However, no residents from the neighborhood wanted to let go of their property since they did not lack money.
The real estate agent found Bruno a buyer when Bruno put the house on the market.
However, when Ethan saw Bruno in person, he was in doubt. Not only did Bruno smell bad, but he also did not look like a resident staying here.
"Mr. Grant, are you sure this is your house?" Ethan asked, standing at a distance from Bruno. He felt suspicious.
"Of course, otherwise, why do I sell it?”
“All right. I like this house. But show me the property title to prove that you’re the owner of the house. Then I’ll pay in full.” Ethan was a straightforward person. He made the decision at once.
Hearing that, Bruno was thrilled.
“Sure. Take a seat. I’ll be right back!”
Bruno grinned as he turned around to look for Madeline who was sitting at the bar counter.
At that moment, Madeline was drinking chocolate milk quietly while waiting to watch a good show.
“Madeline, did you hear that? Mr. White is paying in full for the house. Give me the property title now!”
“Title? What property title?”
“The property title of this house!" Bruno whispered in disbelief.
Don’t tell me she doesn’t know what a property title is…
“I don’t have it.” Madeline shrugged.
"What do you mean you don’t have it? You promised me to sell the house. Now Mr. White wants to buy it. How could you go back on your word?”
“No, I didn't go back on my word." Madeline shook her head.
"Then take out the property title now. Mr. White is waiting!”
"I said you can sell the house. I didn’t go back on my word. But the landlord didn’t give me the property title when I rented the house,” Madeline explained loudly.
"What? Are you kidding me?" Bruno was shocked. He felt that he was fooled.
“Landlord? Mr. Grant, whose house are you selling? You or your landlord? Damn it! That’s ridiculous. How dare you sell your landlord’s house?” Ethan was doubtful about Bruno just now. He was pissed off when he heard what Madeline said.
"Mr. White, please listen to me. It's a misunderstanding. I can explain it..." Bruno was stunned. He quickly tried to explain.
“Madeline, stop joking. Go and get the property title to Mr. White now.” At that moment, Bruno still thought Madeline was joking with him.
"But I really don't have the property title. How about I call the landlord over now?" As Madeline spoke, she dialed Andy’s number.
A few minutes later, Andy, who had been waiting nearby, came in angrily.
"Who are you? What are you guys doing in my house?" Andy shouted angrily.
Seeing that, Bruno was startled.
"Who the hell are you?" asked Bruno.
"I'm the owner of this house, and who the hell are you? Oh, you smell horrible. Madeline, how could you let a beggar in?”
“What?” Bruno was mad when Andy called him a beggar. He wanted to refute but was interrupted by Madeline.
“This man barged in and said he wanted to sell the house. He even wanted me to give him the property title. I have no choice but to call you…” Madeline explained.
Hearing that, Andy continued to act.
“What? That’s crazy. How could you harass my tenant and sell my house? Who do you think you’re?” Andy berated in a loud voice.
Madeline asked Andy to act. The latter exaggerated to put up a good show.
"Oh, my God! This is not even your house. Mr. Cole, what are you doing? Do you know that he’s a scammer?”
Ethan was shocked. He glared at Bruno as if he was really a scammer.
Suddenly, Ethan felt relieved. He could lose more than a billion if he bought the house. At the thought of it, he felt horrified.
“Hey, I'm terribly sorry. I don't know why scammers nowadays are so bold. They barged into houses and even wanted to sell them.” Andy came forward when he saw Ethan was in a panic. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Luckily, I haven't pay him yet. Otherwise, I’ll lose all my savings. But this is Imperial. How could something like this happen? I must call the police!”
Ethan looked at Bruno, feeling scared. He immediately took out his phone to call the police.
Bruno wanted to stop him but was stopped by Andy.
"Mr. White, please don’t call the police. It's a misunderstanding!"
“Misunderstanding? Do you think I’m a fool? Look, the property title is with him. He’s the real owner, and you’re only a liar. Luckily, I’m not stupid. Otherwise, I’m scammed. Crap! It’s a mad world.” Ethan continued to berate.
“Fine, since you don’t give me a chance to explain, it’s useless for me to stay any longer.” Bruno walked out, seeing things were getting out of hand.
Bruno finally understood that Madeline set him up. Ethan was going to call the police. He did not want to be questioned by the police.
However, before he walked out the door, he was stunned. He took a few steps back, stumbled over the steps, and fell to the ground.
“Noah?"
