Chapter 238



Nora peeked out and saw that a pot of worm-infested orchids had been abandoned in a corner. The orchid was in a pot, so it was obvious that someone had abandoned it.

That pot of flowers…

Nora frowned. It was the same potted orchid that the person had sent her a private message about, asking for help with it!

The two approached. Tanya bent down, picked up the pot of orchids and examined it closely. “This pot of flowers looks very pretty.”

Of course, it was pretty.

It was obvious at a glance that the flower pot had been meticulously cared for over many years as someone’s priceless treasure.

Visit gal𝓃𝑜v𝓮ls.com for updates It was a pity that it had become infested with worms.

But wasn’t its owner a bit heartless? Had they discarded the flowers just because she hadn’t responded to them?

However, Nora understood the next moment.

Flower worms were contagious. If they stayed in the greenhouse with other flowers, they would probably spoil them too.

What a pity.

Tanya held up the pot and said, “The thing is, I don’t have any flowers in my new house. Let’s use this one as a decoration. How do we get rid of the worms in it?”.

Tanya had already bought the house. They had come to take a look today.

Nora thought for a moment. Since Tanya liked flowers, that meant they were meant to be. Therefore, she said, “Leave it to me.”

Tanya nodded.

The two continued walking. After walking halfway through the residential complex, although Tanya’s long, slender legs kept moving, she was already complaining, “The residential complex is too big. I shouldn’t have suggested taking you around and should have driven instead.”

Nora ignored her.

The two walked and walked until Tanya began to sweat. Only then did they reach the door of Villa No. 10. Tanya unlocked the door with her fingerprint and said, “The people who used to live in the villa were mostly artists. When I bought the house, the former owner warned me not to mess with the residents of Villa No. 9.”

Nora raised her eyebrows. “Why?”

Tanya explained, “He said she was a middle-aged woman with a particularly strange temperament. Also, she probably comes from a rather complicated background, because she has a lot of hidden bodyguards protecting her in the vicinity!”

Nora, “…”

The villas were in the suburbs. Although their appearance was quite good, it was actually not that expensive due to their location.

Although the surroundings were passable as a nursing home, the medical conditions were not.

As an ordinary residential home, it was too far from the city. Tanya had only chosen this place because it was all she could afford with her years of savings. So what influential person was it that would choose to live here?

He shook his head and paid no more attention to the matter. Instead, he followed Tanya into the room.

However, Nora raised her eyebrows a little after doing so.

The villa was exquisitely decorated in a country style, Tanya’s favorite. But, as far as Nora knew, that decor cost at least $300,000 to $500,000!

Along with the villa itself….

How could Tanya have bought it at a million dollars?

She had checked the prices of nearby villas: they all cost around $1.2 million each. Tanya said that because the owner was in a hurry to sell the house, he had set a low asking price. She only had $1 million at her disposal, so it was just what she needed.

Add to that the interior decor and furnishings, and there was no way anyone could buy the house for less than $2 million!

Besides, it wasn’t hard to sell the homes in the area. After all, they were high-end properties, and the villas were quite nice. He couldn’t help but think that there was definitely something going on here.

Tanya, who was unaware of the goings-on, was walking around excitedly. There were three floors in the villa. The second floor consisted of a living room and a room for the domestic staff.

The second floor consisted of three bedrooms, while the third floor could be used as a study or storage room.

Tanya went upstairs excitedly. She said to Nora, “You know what I love most about this place? This. Take a look Nora.”

Nora looked and saw that the two rooms on the third floor had merged into one practice room. Mirrors covered the walls on all four sides, which made it very suitable for….

“This is my dance practice room!”

Tanya slipped into the practice room on tiptoe. She looked around with a smile and said, “The previous owner’s girlfriend was a dancer, so she specially bought this house. And here too…”

He went out, pointed to the third room and said, “This is the bathroom and dressing room. After dancing, I can go in and take a shower and wash off all the stinky sweat. There’s also a huge jacuzzi inside. Haha, the realtor said the previous owner planned to use it as a shared bath for him and his girlfriend, so they ended up leaving it unused after the renovation. Well, now I’ll be the one using it!”

Nora, “…”

Tanya’s favorite dance rehearsal room, Tanya’s favorite country-style interior decor, and a bathtub for two…. All of it made her absolutely convinced that something was going on in the house.

There weren’t that many coincidences in this world.

However, seeing how excited Tanya was, she didn’t want to be a spoilsport either. So, she just raised her eyebrows, pulled out her phone and hacked into the real estate agency’s system. She found the previous owner in the transaction details of the house. The man had a very common name: Gary Long.

Nora, “…”

The corners of her lips tightened a little, and she couldn’t shake the feeling that she must be overthinking. As she was about to leave the page, something suddenly occurred to her and she scrolled up. He found a name that looked familiar: Joel Smith.

Nora, “¿?”

Joel had transferred ownership rights to Gary. Then, in less than half a month, Gary sold it to Tanya. Predictably, how was it possible that there were so many coincidences in the world?

She raised her head again and looked at Tanya, only to see that she was already spinning excitedly in the dance rehearsal room.

Nora hesitated for a moment. After a brief internal struggle, she decided not to do anything about it. If she told Tanya, given how stubbornly competitive she was, she would surely give her the house back.

Returning the house amounted to a breach of contract, which would force him to pay a large amount in damages. On top of that, there were also various fees involved.

More importantly, through the house, as well as the meticulousness and care with which Joel had handled the matter, Nora could tell with her keen senses that there might still be possibilities between the two of them.

Therefore, she had better not say anything unnecessary!

In the midst of her thoughts, Tanya came out of the dance rehearsal room and said, “Never mind, I’m not going to dance anymore. It’s not like you’re doing it with me anyway so it’s really boring. Nora, didn’t you just say you can cure that flower pot, hurry up and do it! I’ll take it as a housewarming gift from you.”

Nora, “…”

That flower pot was worth $300,000. Admittedly, she was capable of asking for a $300,000 housewarming gift.

She said, “I need 100 grams of rice vinegar, 100 grams of baking soda, wormwood…”

He went downstairs after listing a few items. After looking all over the house, he found them all in the kitchen.

Tanya laughed and said, “The previous owner said his girlfriend was coming back from overseas half a month ago. They were planning to get married, so he bought a lot of everyday items for the house. But in the end, the girlfriend didn’t come back, and the two of them broke up, so all these everyday items are now coming to me. Let’s see, there are two cartons of milk in the fridge. They’re about to expire, so let’s have one each later.”

Nora, “…”

Wasn’t Joel Smith a little too kind?

The corners of his lips tightened a little. Then, he got down to business.

Outside, Mrs. Landis walked past her villa. She ran toward the rocks but didn’t see the pot of orchids. She was terribly alarmed and frightened, but there were no surveillance cameras there, so she didn’t know who had taken it either.

Surely now Iris was going to be heartbroken.

As she was thinking about it, she suddenly smelled something pungent and pungent. She turned and saw two girls coming out of Villa No. 10 with a pot of flowers in their hands.
