Chapter 153

    Chapter 153


    Samia stated her im as if it were the most natural thing in the world, her heart not even skipping a


    beat.


    “200 grand? That’s pocket change for us these days!” Carole held up five fingers with a flourish.


    Good heavens! Half a million! Samia’s eyes glinted with envy.


    Who would have thought that Yeager’s Delicacies was raking in so much dough? But now, all that cash


    was hers for the taking.


    “So you owe me 450 grand!”


    Anthea crossed her arms defiantly, “We made half a million, sure. And there’s a line out the door of our


    shop every single day. Business is booming! But you won’t see a cent of it, Samia. How does that


    burn?”


    Boiling with rage, Samia’s face paled at the audacity of this little bitch standing up to her- it was simply


    unbelievable!


    “Not giving me the money, huh? Just you wait! You’ll regret this! I’m revoking your lease right this


    instant! You won’t make another dime! I’m calling my niece right now to have her lease this ce to


    me!”


    Samia’s niece was none other than Una


    She had the gall to demand cash from Anthea, relying solely on the fact that Una, at the property


    management, was her niece.


    A word from her, and Una could snatch the shop back from them!


    Anthea just watched Samia with an amused smile.


    Samia had no idea that Anthea had already bought the ce outright. Smugly she taunted, “What’s it


    going to be? Now you see the consequences, right? Hand over the money if you know what’s good for


    you. This money should’ve been ours to begin with! I’m already being generous letting you keep ten


    grand. Don’t bite off more than you can chew!”


    ying along with Samia’s theatrics, Anthea feigned terror, “Oh no! Please, do hurry and get Una to


    take back the lease!”


    “Fine! Just you wait!” Seeing Anthea’s apparent insolence, Samia didn’t hold back. She whipped out


    her phone and dialed Una, “Hello, Una, it’s your aunt…


    Whatever was said on the other end, Samia’s expression morphed from triumph to rage, to disbelief,


    until a sheen of sweat coated her forehead.


    Even her voice grew fainter.


    She bought it! In her wildest dreams, Samia had not anticipated Anthea swooping in to buy all three of


    the properties.


    Samia felt her legs turn to jelly. Her half a million was gone.


    And just then, Anthea’s voice cut through, “Mom, you better call the cops and report that someone is


    robbing us.”


    Call the cops? Samia’s entire body jolted, and she bolted like a monster was on her heels.


    She dashed out of Yeager’s Delicacies.


    Slumped on the ground outside, Samia wailed in despair.


    The money! It was all supposed to be hers!

    Had she known the business would boom, she would’ve never sublet the space to Anthea. But it was


    toote for regrets now.


    Watching Samia sob from a distance, Anthea pped her hands dispassionately, “I’ve never seen


    someone so shameless.”


    Carole chuckled, “Ann, we really owe you one this time. If you hadn’t bought the restaurant, we’d be in


    real trouble.”


    Samia was a piece of work. With a niece working in property management, they had a hundred ways to


    reim a property. If things had escted, their shop might have been finished.


    Anthea replied, “Even if I hadn’t bought it, I’d have dealt with her.”


    Carole grinned, as if remembering something, “Oh, Ann, get some rest tonight. We’re heading over to


    Sarah’s ce tomorrow.”


    “What for?” Anthea blinked in surprise.


    “Sarah’s boyfriend ising over to meet the family and talk marriage,” Carole exined.


    “That soon?” Anthea was taken aback.


    Carole nodded, “Apparently, the guy’s family is well off, and since Sarah’s head over heels, they’re


    speeding things up.”


    Just then, Anthea’s phone began to ring. Picking it up, she saw an unfamiliar number, “Hello?”


    “Good day, I’m Dahlia, the Director at RealTimeFlow, am I speaking with Ms. Griffin?”
