Chapter 2

I aced the interview and secured an offer from the Global 500 company. This was already the highest level I could reach with my education.

The company was a fair distance from my home. So, after I talked it over with my parents, I decided to buy a place closer to work.

When I arrived at the sales center, the agent showed me a few units.

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out at the entrance. "Anyone here? Show us the best units you have here!"

I turned my head to see an arrogant-looking Aaron strutting in with Shayla in his arms.

Upon spotting me, the two quickly came over and mocked, "Bella, what are you doing here? Can you even afford to buy a house? We've already looked it up. The shabby apartments of yours wouldn't even cover the down payment for a house in the city center."

Hearing that, the sales agent who had seemed helpful just moments ago instantly grew cold and distant toward me.

I retorted, "So, what if I can’t buy it? Can you?"

Shayla stuck her chin up and declared arrogantly, "Of course. I'm going to win 50 million dollars. In fact, buying a few units at once is nothing for me."

The sales agent immediately approached them. "Miss, how may I help you?"

Shayla lifted her chin and said, "I think that unit looks nice."

The sales agent's eyes brightened as she hurriedly said, "Miss, you have impeccable taste. This unit has the best location and view in the entire project. It's just 20 million dollars, hardly a price to worry about for you."

"20 million dollars?" Both Aaron and Shayla were dumbfounded by the price. They hadn't expected a 1000 square feet condominium in the city center to be outrageously expensive.

The sales agent continued, "If it feels a little pricey, you could always go with a mortgage plan."

Shayla flushed in embarrassment at the comment. She tossed her head defiantly and retorted, "Mortgage? Why would I need a mortgage when I've just won 50 million dollars? I'm paying in full."

The sales agent's demeanor warmed instantly. "If you're interested in this unit, you can pay a deposit of one million dollars. If the lottery funds haven't been cleared yet, you could arrange for a bank loan."

Her words made Aaron and Shayla hesitate.

Right then, I furrowed my brows and snapped impatiently, "I'm starting to doubt that you'd even won that 50 million dollars. Are you here to cause trouble? If you can't afford it, then stop wasting everyone's time and get lost!"

Aaron's eyes reddened in fury. "That's utter nonsense! Shay had definitely won the 50 million dollars. She just hasn't received the money yet."

I waved at them. "If that's the case, then get lost for now. I'll take this unit."

Hearing that, both of them panicked visibly.

Shayla gritted her teeth and quickly spoke up. "This unit is mine. I'll get a bank loan right now for the deposit!"
