    Chapter 16


    After hanging up the phone, Harrison felt a tinge of fear.


    The big shot from the Heavenly Private Room was not to be messed around. He had his ways of


    getting things done, and he could do so ferociously.


    Not even Harrison nor the whole Queen family could defend themselves against him.


    Even the influential personnel of Pollerton General Hospital were warned to stay put. Destroying the


    Queen family would be a piece of cake for him!


    Harrison intended to find out who made the first move, but in the end, he decided not to.


    Based on what he had learned so far, he knew that the big shot would find out right away if he


    began investigating the case.


    When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back.


    Harrison understood that much.


    After dealing with Pollerton General Hospital, Donald approached his grandfather and held his


    hands in silence. He stayed like that for a long time. Suddenly, Donald''s phone rang. He frowned,


    only to find outter that it was a call from his good friend, Rafe.


    Rafe and Donald were high school ssmates. Although they had not kept in touch for several


    years, Rafe was the first person Donald contacted when he first arrived in Pollerton.


    Rafe did not have a happy marriage. He married into the Scott family.


    His wife, Faye, is a rather plump and dominantdy. Rafe did not have a proper job. He was in the


    second-hand housing business. To put it simply, he was only an agent. As a blunt and honest


    person, Rafe did not do very well. He could only earn about six thousand every month.


    “Hello, Rafe,” Donald answered the call.


    “Donald, would you like toe to our high school gathering at noon?” Rafe asked with a smile.


    “No, I am not going,” Donald rejected the invitation.


    Rafe replied, “That won''t do. Come! Pleasee for my sake. Even the popr girl in our ss is


    going. Oliver King will be there. He contacted me a few days ago, saying he has set his sights on


    one of the houses in Pollerton Estates. I am worried I can''t make a sale, but you have a way with


    words, so I want to ask for your help.”


    Donald sank into deep thought.


    Pollerton Estates... Isn''t that developed by Charles? The current market rate is almost three


    hundred thousand per square meter. Given that the houses there are all at least three hundred


    square meters, one house should be worth more than a hundred million, including tax. There is an


    enormous mansion at three thousand square meters in Pollerton Estates. Renovation was


    completedst year. It is currently valued at 1.3 billion! It''s one of the most expensive properties in


    Pollerton, which makes it very popr among housing agents. Themission could go up to ten


    million if anyone could close the deal!


    “Sure,” Donald agreed immediately.


    After he hung up the phone, he called Charles right away. “Hey Charlie, have you sold the Prime


    Property of Pollerton?”


    Charles replied, “Not yet, Lord Campbell. It was renovatedst year. The grand renovation alone


    cost over 100 million. Mr. Lane has informed me that the ownership can be transferred to you when


    you return.”


    “All right. Wait for my call,” Donald responded.


    Rafe called a whileter. “Donald, do you have time now? Could youe by Pollerton Estates?


    Oliver ising to look at the house now.”


    Donald agreed right away.


    He hailed a taxi and rushed over to Pollerton Estates.


    When he arrived, Donald saw Rafe registering with the security guard. He had his suit and name


    tag on.


    “Hi, Donald. Let''s wait a while. Oliver said he will be here in ten minutes,” Rafe said with a smile as


    he patted Donald''s shoulder. “By the way, have you gathered enough money for your grandpa''s


    medical fees?” “Yes, it''s enough.” Donald was also pleased to see Rafe.


    “I''m sorry I couldn''t help you there,” Rafe apologized.


    Donald spotted a few scratch marks on Rafe''s neck. They looked rather deep.


    “Is that what happened because I asked you for a loan?” Donald asked with a frown.


    Rafe chuckled awkwardly and said, “Conflicts between husband and wife are perfectly normal.”


    Donald stopped talking and stayed silent after that.


    As they stood in silence, suddenly a car honked. They looked back and saw a luxurious car parked


    right in front of them. A young man in a branded tuxedo got down from the car, followed by two


    beautiful women.


    One of the women was wearing a long, ck dress paired with high heels. She had a slim figure


    and fair skin, exuding an


    exquisite and graceful aura.


    She was Reba Jones, the most popr girl in high school.


    Reba was stunned when she saw Donald. With a calm and indifferent expression, she said, “I


    haven''t seen you in a long time, Donald.”


    Both of them had been involved in a scandal in the past.


    The other woman, standing at one point seven five meters in height, had shoulder-length hair, a


    sexy figure, and a beautiful face. After greeting Donald and Rafe, she turned her gaze back to the


    man in the tuxedo. Her eyes were filled with contempt when she saw Rafe.


    Donald was aware of it, but he smiled dismissively.


    “Hey, Donald! You''re here too! I haven''t seen you in a long while.” The man in the tuxedo was


    Oliver.


    He had the appearance of a sessful man. On his wrist was a gold Rolex watch. Every single


    movement of his screamed


    superiority.

    “It''s been a while, Oliver,” Donald greeted cheerfully.


    Oliver nodded and shifted his attention to Rafe. “Rafe, have you contacted the owner of the


    mansion?”


    Rafe seemed a little nervous, but he tried to remain steady. “Yes, we have spoken. The mansion is


    three hundred square meters in size, so the total worth is ny-seven million...”


    Gulp.


    Both Reba and the tall woman each took a deep breath.


    In the country, there were very few people who could buy a property worth almost a hundred million


    without hesitation.


    “Oliver, what business are you currently doing? How could you afford a mansion worth a hundred


    million...” Reba said, eyes filled with admiration.


    Oliver tried to remain indifferent as he shrugged. “Just a small business.”


    Although he was trying to be humble, he could not hide the smug look on his face.


    The tall woman eximed in exaggeration, “That’s amazing! I think you''re the most capable in our


    circle, Mr. King!”


    Oliver looked at the tall woman and said, “Irene, you''re not doing too bad yourself. You''re going to


    sign a contract with Donter Pictures soon. You''re going to be a superstar.


    The tall woman, Irene Smith, smiled gently. “I still require your support, Mr. King. Unlike somebody


    who is still a housing agent till this day...”


    Irene''s eyes were on Rafe and Donald when she said that.


    Oliver smirked. “Come, let''s have a look at the house.”


    Rafe''s smile stiffened.


    To be frank, he was unwilling to make this deal because he knew how Oliver was like.


    He was very condescending and liked to show off his wealth.


    However, if the deal was sessful, themission would be very high.


    They swiftly entered the residential area. As they were passing through, they were astounded by


    what they saw.


    The only mansion around was right in front of their eyes. With a space of over three thousand


    square meters, it came with a beautiful garden and a flowing fountain. It was aplete package.


    “So, this is the famous Prime Property of Pollerton?” Reba and Irene were filled with wonder.
