Chapter 2 +25 BONUS 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 . مر 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 wol 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 ! " Chapter 3
