    Chapter 59 Putting On A Show


    “Fine, I’ll go and take a look at it!” Curling her lips, Margaret yanked Connor up though he was mopping


    the floor. “Why are you still mopping the floor? Hurry up and get changed!” she ordered.


    “Why should I change?” Connor put down the mop in his hand and wiped his sweat, saying, “I’ve just


    changed my clothes this morning!”


    “So, you want to go to Edenic Heights with me dressed in such a manner? I don’t want to be


    humiliated! Either go and get changed quickly or just stay here and continue mopping the floor!”


    Margaret snapped, scaring him so badly that he hurried to the room to get changed.


    When he came back out shortly after, he had already changed into a set of rtively clean clothes.


    Margaret looked him up and down several times. Frowning slightly, shemented, “You’re finally


    looking somewhat decent. Big shots live in Edenic Heights, so don’t talk too much when we arrive there


    later. Watch your tongue lest you expose your ignorance!”


    “Got it.”


    Connor hung his head, not daring to utter a single word in protest.


    When they were making their way downstairs, Josephine surreptitiously took out her phone and texted


    Leonard from the real estatepany. Strangely enough, there was no reply from him.


    Left with no other choice, she could only bring her parents to Edenic Heights first.


    However, when they walked past the gate, Margaret caught sight of the Lamborghini parked by the


    roadside at a single nce. At once, she eximed, “Whose sports car is this? Wow, the owner merely


    parked it by the roadside, not at all worried that it’ll get scratched!”


    Turning to Josephine, she gushed, “This car must be very expensive, no? Well, Josephine?”


    “Yes, it is very expensive.” Josephine nodded in affirmation.


    It cost eighteen million, eight hundred and eighty thousand, after all. That was definitely a sky-high


    price!


    “I could tell that it must cost a fortune at a single nce! I wonder who in ourmunity is so rich that


    he could afford to buy such an expensive sports car!” Envy shone brightly in Margaret’s eyes.


    “Josephine, this car must cost at least two or three million, no?”


    “It cost more than ten million. After adding the myriad of other fees, it totals up to over twenty million.”


    As the owner of the car, Josephine was naturally aware of its price. Nheless, she didn’t dare tell


    her mother about it.


    Based on my understanding of her, she would no doubt im this car for herself if she were to know


    the truth!


    “Over twenty million?” Margaret was so shocked that her jaw dropped. “Oh my God, twenty million is


    already enough to buy a mansion at Edenic Heights, no? Even in ourmunity, that’s sufficient to buy


    ten to twenty houses! Who’s the wastrel who used twenty million to buy a car?”


    Well, that wastrel is the live-in son-inw whom you look down upon!


    Rolling her eyes, Josephine didn’t respond to that. Instead, she stretched out a hand and hailed a taxi,


    heading toward Edenic Heights.


    Throughout the entire drive, she couldn’t reach Leonard. Regardless of whether she phoned or texted


    him, he neither picked up nor responded.


    At that turn of events, her face instantly nched.


    Don’t tell me something has gone wrong?


    “What’s wrong, Josephine?” Margaret couldn’t help asking upon noticing her pale face.


    “N-Nothing.”


    Josephine forced herself to appear calm.


    “Oh yes, have you given Jonathan a call? Why don’t you ask him toe out and meet us since we’re


    almost there?” Margaret still acted all high and mighty.


    It seemed as though she had forgotten all about having kicked Jonathan out the night before.


    “He might have left his phone somewhere since I can’t get through to him,” Josephine lied. In actual


    fact, she didn’t even have Jonathan’s number.


    “Hmph! I think he does have his phone, but he’s deliberately putting on a show of power!” Margaret


    harrumphed, chagrin written all over her face.


    Half an hourter, the taxi came to a stop outside the gate of Edenic Heights.


    After alighting from the taxi, Josephine wore a worried expression.


    Why am I still unable to reach Mr. Zardi when I’ve already arrived at the gate of Edenic Heights?


    “Why are you standing there, Josephine?” Noticing her hesitance, Margaret frowned and questioned,


    “Why are you dawdling and not going in?”


    “Coming!”


    As things hade to that, Josephine could only bite the bullet and drag her feet toward Edenic


    Heights alongside her parents.


    Outside the gate of Edenic Heights were tons of guards.


    Upon spotting them, several guards stepped forward and stopped them right away. “Stop right there!


    Who are you all looking for?”


    “We’re looking for Jonathan Goldstein! He lives here, so hurry up and lead the way!” Margaret


    proimed, looking at them condescendingly.


    “Jonathan Goldstein?” The guards exchanged nces before they shook their heads. “We’ve never


    heard of such a person. You must have gotten the wrong ce.”


    “That’s impossible!” Margaret scoffed. “He lives in No. 1 Vi. How could I possibly have gotten the


    wrong ce?”


    “No. 1 Vi?” The moment the guards heard that they couldn’t help shuddering.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    To them, the trauma from No. 1 Vi was truly too great.


    After all, they kneeled in front of that mansion for the entire night just the night before.


    “You’re here to look for Mr. Goldstein?” They immediately lowered themselves, their demeanor turning


    into that of servants in a sh.


    “Mr. Goldstein?” Hearing that address, Margaret sneered, “That should be Jonathan, then. Go and tell


    him that his mother-inw is here, and ask him toe out quickly!”


    “Sure! I’ll go right away!” When the guards heard her saying that he was the man’s mother-inw, they


    hastened to the guardhouse without dy.


    However, no sooner had they left than Josephine hurried after them. “Wait a moment!”


    “What is it?” The guards halted in their tracks.


    “May I know if the owner of No. 1 Vi is named Jonathan Goldstein?” Josephine tentatively inquired.


    There are plenty of people with thest name of Goldstein. How could Jonathan be the owner of No. 1


    Vi?


    “We aren’t quite certain about that…” The guards shook their heads.


    We only know that the owner of No. 1 Vi has thest name of Goldstein. We don’t dare ask for his


    first name.


    “Please wait for a minute while I make a call to confirm.” With her phone in hand, Josephine gave


    Leonard a call again. This time, the man finally picked up.


    “Mr. Zardi, have you rented the mansion I asked you to rent?”


    “Yeah.” Leonard’s voice sounded weak, making it unmistakable that he had just woken up. Besides,


    she seemingly heard the voice of a woman beside him. “It’s No. 3 Vi. Just ask a guard to bring you


    there. Remember to wire me the money after viewing the ce!”


    “Sure!”


    At longst, Josephine’s heart that had been lodged in her throat settled back into her chest.


    Dang! It turns out that they rented a mansion?


    When the guards heard her conversation, a trace of disdain shed across their faces.


    Phew! We even thought that they were really Mr. Goldstein’s family. They truly gave us a fright!


    “I’m sorry, but I got the wrong address. We’re staying in No. 3 Vi. Mr. Zardi has probably spoken


    to you, yes?” Josephine said while looking at them.


    “Yeah.” The guards’ attitudes changed in the blink of an eye. Shooting her a re, they griped, “You


    should’ve said that it’s No. 3 Vi instead of putting on a show! Do you know that you almost doomed


    us?”
