Chapter 397


    Buddy looked at Victor doubtfully. He had met Victor at Upper East Sleglund with Delmont the other


    night.


    Buddy said, "You asked me who the previous legal person was."


    Victor said, "That''s right. I had asked you thatst time but Delmont didn''t want to answer my


    question. I can now tell you who the legal person of thend is."


    Buddy became nervous when he heard that. Did they make a mistake and trusted the wrong


    person?


    Victor couldn''t bear to look at Aisling’s pale face. She seemed to have trusted the wrong friend this


    time.


    Victor said slowly, "The legal person of this piece ofnd is the cousin of your friend''s husband, Aunt


    Clement. They bought thend together but realized that no matter what they build they would not


    be able to profit after estimation. Moreover, the start-up capital is very huge and it is hard to get a


    bank loan. Since the people in the industry have kept this matter a secret, many outsiders are


    unaware about this.


    They resell thend because his wife knows you,


    Aunt Clement.


    You did make a lot of money when you invested in real estate for the first time. It was a bait from the


    beginning. If I was right, your friend urged you to buy that piece ofnd after you had made money.


    However, you didn''t know that thend was problematic.


    Even if you build a residential building, it can''t exceed ten stories. That is all the information we


    know at the moment.


    These are just the basics. If you want to know about the specifics, you can ask Mr. Calder."


    Aisling''s face turned pale when she heard that.


    Victor was right. Her friend instigated her to buy thend after she had earned some money. They


    had known each other for a long time and Aisling had witnessed her friend''s family making a lot of


    money.


    That was why she dared to invest. She had earned some money when she invested for the first


    time. The clothing business of the Clement family was in a bad state and it was not easy to do other


    business. They had discussed changing their line of business. However, she was too simple-


    minded and had no knowledge of real estate.


    No wonder Zaiden was unwilling to meet her.


    The news was also a blow to Buddy.


    He had never thought that the inside story would be so deep. The Clement family agreed to buy that


    piece ofnd after discussion because it was located in amercial area and they were optimistic


    about the prospects there.


    It was just a street away but why was it so problematic?


    Aisling looked at Victor anxiously and said, "Victor, you have to help me this time. I''ve used all my


    family assets. The Clement family will be doomed if we can''t build a house there."


    Victor sat quietly and looked down with no expression on his face, causing everyone at the scene


    not able to read his thoughts.


    When Aisling saw that Victor was indifferent, she spoke hurriedly, "Victor, say something."


    Anson looked at Aisling sympathetically. The Clement family already had enough money but they


    were greedy for more. Thend seemed to have greatmercial value. However, they spent all


    their entire family assets on thend before doing any research on the inside story.


    Aisling’s friend was indeed remarkable!


    Anson wanted to see what kind of friend she was if he had the chance.


    It was indeed remarkable for someone to be that eloquent!


    Haven could not believe her ears when she heard Aisling''s words. If the Clement family could not


    come out from this mess and went bankrupt, Reba would not agree to let Vincent marry her.


    She would have to marry Vincent as soon as possible. That way, she would have half of the Alwynn


    family''s property even if they got a divorce in the future.


    She didn''t want to live a poor life. She had been used to a luxurious life all these years and couldn''t


    suffer together with the Clement family.


    Victor stood up suddenly and said indifferently, "Aunt Clement, do not let anyone know about this


    matter. Let’s start the bidding first and see what happens."


    The amount of money needed was toorge. He could invest but that would not solve the root of the


    problem. He was afraid that there was an inside story that he was unaware of.


    He nced at Haven and Aisling instantly understood what he meant. She gave a warning nce


    at Haven and said, "Haven, you can''t tell anyone what you had heard tonight."


    Haven looked at Aisling with a sad face when she heard that. She asked heartbreakingly, "Mom,


    don''t you trust me? What good will it do to me if the


    Clement family falls apart? Don''t worry, Mom. I won''t tell anyone about this." She would only have a


    good life if the Clement family survived. She was thest person who wanted the Clement family to


    go bankrupt.


    If the Clement family did go bankrupt, with her looks, she could still marry a rich man and live a


    happy life.


    She would think of a back-up n for herself in everything she did.

    "Okay!" Aisling nodded. She looked at Victor and asked, "Victor, you''ll definitely help me, right?"


    Victor was still expressionless. He nced out of the window. The sky was slightly gray. He said in


    a t tone, "I owe the Clement family and I have never refused the requests made by you, Aunt


    Clement." He helped the Clement family because of Eden.


    Haven asked angrily when she heard that, "Mr. Alwynn, what about me? Why did you refuse Mom


    when she asked you to marry me?"


    "Haven!" Buddy looked at her angrily. How could she not be embarrassed to say something like


    that?


    Haven looked at him discontentedly and grumbled, "Buddy, was I wrong? He said that he had never


    refused Mom but he actually refused to marry me when Mom asked him to do so." She had to


    speak her mind at this point.


    Lucian could not bear to listen to Haven any longer. His gaze was indifferent and he said in a


    sarcastic tone, "Why should Victor marry you?"


    Adonis who was standing at the side also said sarcastically, "Yes, Lucian is right. Why should Victor


    marry you? Rtionships have to be mutual. How can you force Victor to marry you?"


    Anson added quickly, "Haven, you''re really shameless. You say you would marry Victor no matter


    what but you''re together with Vincent. Both of you are about to get engaged. Even if you do not feel


    ashamed for saying something like that, we feel ashamed for you." Anson''s words were even more


    vicious.


    Haven was embarrassed and angry at the same time when she heard their sarcastic words. She


    was only expressing the resentment in her heart and the things that she dared not say before. Was


    she wrong to say that?


    Victor''s remarks just now were a p in the face to himself.
