    “No. That’s the mansion of Draco Lang, the new Chief Commander of Lilyrose Strategy Department.


    The Horizon Mirror is on another side,” exined the guide as he pointed at the nearest building by the


    shore.


    “That means we will be neighbors with the Chief Commander if we live here!”


    Rudy’s eyes glimmered with hope upon hearing the guide.


    Meanwhile, at Horizon Mirror, Kaze was bringing Darcy and his iws around the mansion.


    in-


    They had not officially moved in, but his mother-inw was bragging to everyone about moving into the


    mansion soon.


    “This open kitchen is really huge! And the dining area! Why don’t we move in today?” Agnes said


    excitedly as she touched everything she


    saw.


    Darcy chuckled helplessly and said, “Mom, you are rushing things. We still need to buy a lot of


    furniture…”


    “Darcy, at least you know that you are poor and unable to afford all those expensive furniture!”


    Deborah’s annoying voice came from the door.


    Darcy turned to the entrance and her expression changed.


    Master Quint and the rest of the extended family marched in righteously as if the ce was theirs.


    “Father, you guys are here! You should have called us and we would


    Have pickou you up:


    Agnes went up to them with a ttering smile, the delight on her face was obvious.


    The extended family had always looked down on her and her family, She was and now they came all


    the way here to visit her new home. proud for once.


    Samus scoffed and said, “You really think you own this ce? Why must we tell you if we areing


    over?”


    “Samus, watch your tone when you talk to my mother!” Darcy bellowed angrily.


    “What? Was I wrong?” Samus rolled his eyes at Darcy. “Poor


    bastards, you people can’t even afford furniture and you’re trying to lecture me? Look at your neighbor,


    that’s Chief Commander, Draco Lang. The owners of the other units are also rich and influential figures.


    “Yet you three and that idiot moved into this luxurious ce money. If you bump into your neighbors in


    the future, woul feel ashamed? This is out of your league, don’t even bother!”


    Agnes, who was delighted a moment ago, lowered her head awkwardly. The happiness in her faded


    instantly.


    Darcy was furious. She red at Deborah but she could note with appropriate words to retort.

    Kaze wasing back from the washroom and overheard the conversation. Heughed and said,


    “Samus, what if I can afford the expensive furniture?”


    “Hahaha!” Samusughed hysterically. He did not bother concealing his contempt for Kaze.


    “You piece of shit! Don’t tell me you are moving scraps in here as


    your


    said. I could spare you some money and get some second-hand furniture. It’s better than having


    scraps.”


    Deborah echoed, “The Horizon Mirror is worth fifty million, so a set of fitting furniture must be at least


    ten million, or else it’s just in embarrassing using old furniture.”


    “Hahaha!”


    Everyoneughed.


    Kaze chuckled. “Ten million? That’s what you call ss? That’s just the study desk I bought to ce in


    Hector’s home office.”


    “You’re still talking big, aren’t you?”


    Samus’ expression turned grim. He then grinned strangely and said, Kaze, why don’t we have a bet? I


    bet you can’t afford tens of millions of furniture.”


    “Sure. What are you betting?” Kaze nodded.


    “If you win, I will jump into theke and swim back!”


    Samus continued with a wicked look, “If you lose, this ce belongs


    to us!”
