Chapter 138
Thssa was still rooted to the spot,pletely blindsided by this turn of events. Turned out it was
Lysander who had built a mansion for her family.
The reason? Last time he visited, there wasn’t even a decent chair for him to sit on..
Previously, she had assumed that Lysander was Isabe’s boyfriend and that he came to Hollowbrook
specifically to see her. If he was here to see Isabe, why did he eat at her house?
She wasn’t a fan of Isabe, so she started to resent him and intentionally gave him a chair full of dust
and cobwebs, with one leg even broken. He was clearly pissed, stormed off, and even said that the
food in Hollowbrook wasn’t good enough for his taste.
She never expected that just because of this, he would demolish their home and build such a huge
vi.
Talk about turning the other cheek
“Um, may I ask, how much did this vi cost?” Thssa ventured, after recovering from her shock.
The young man replied. “I’m not sure, I’m just in charge of handing over the keys and documents to

you.”
“Well, did your boss leave any other instructions?” Thssa asked.
She had a hunch that things were not as simple as they seemed. Even if Lysander was loaded, he
wouldn’t build a mansion for her family over such a trivial matter, right? She would definitely pay him
back for the cost of building the vi.
Once she returned to Starhaven, she would ask Lysander herself how much the vi cost and when
she could afford it, she would pay him back.
Looked like she’ll have to find more part-time jobs in the future. She couldn’t ept something for
nothing, she had to pay him back. Otherwise, she would feel ufortable living in a vi built by him,
especially since there was nothing going on between she and Lysander.
“No other instructions. The young man shook his head, “I have to go back to Starhaven today and
since you guys rented a car, I can
hitch a ride.”
He hopped into the car parked at the vi’s entrance, waved goodbye to Thssa, and told the driver
to leave.
Thssa stood at the entrance of the vi, staring at Isabe’s high-rise building behind their vi, then
at her own house.
-Before, Isabe’s house was the most luxurious and tallest in the vige. Now Thssa’s house was
the tallest and most beautiful.
Isabe’s house used to block the sunlight from hers, but now it was her house that cast a shadow over
Isabe’s.
Lysander’s move was impressive.
Thssa was about to go in and check out the interior of the mansion.
When her neighbor Greta ran over and stopped her, “Thssa, you’re finally back. Why don’t you
“Sure, let’s go to your house.” Thssa hadn’t forgotten about this. It was just that she was stunned by
the sight before her and lost track of time.
Thssa followed Greta to her house. Greta’s house was in front of Thssa’s. She lived in a small
building which used to look more upscale than Thssa’s house. But nowpared to the vi, it
seemed rather dull.
“Thssa, your family is living the good life now. Living in a vi that looks even better and more
luxurious than Isabe’s. Does your boyfriend have more money than Isabe’s?” Greta showered her
withpliments and also tried to probe. She wanted to know if the vi was built by Thssa’s
boyfriend.
Thssa smiled awkwardly and said, “Not really, a developer thought our house was too qutdated and
needed a makeover. So they
chose our ce to
build this vi as a test site.”
She didn’t have a boyfriend. And she never believed in unting her family’s wealth, Life was her own,
and as long as she wasfortable, that was all that mattered.
“What do you mean by test site?” Greta was confused.
“It means to live there temporarily to see if there are any design ws in the mansion. Otherwise, what
if the house copses while people are living in it? So they let a few people try it out first. That’s what a
test site means.” Thssa exined.
