Upon hearing Yvette’s words, everyone shifted their gazes toward the Cunningham Family with doubts on their faces.
In a fit of panic, James immediately defended himself. “W-Why can’t this house belong to me? What proof do you have to say that this house is not mine?”
Seeing James still holding onto his lies. Yvette sneered. “What proof? My husband was here to view this house three days ago! At that time, the salesperson made it clear that this house had not been sold yet!”
Yvette‘s statement instantly created an uproar among the group.
“Is this true? Three days ago, this house was yet to be sold?“
”Didn’t James say that favonovel.com had bought it a few months ago? Does this mean favonovel.com is lying?”
“That’s highly possible! After all, James likes to bite off more than favonovel.com can chew.”
“Well, this is embarrassing…”
Everyone started whispering, and some even immediately jeered at James.
Face as white as a sheet, James refuted in a trembling voice, “B-Bullsh*t! This house… l bought it long ago…“
Once again, Yvette sneered. “Oh, really? if what you said is true, does that mean the Lakeside Garden salesperson had made a mistake? They actually showed the houses that they have sold to other buyers? If that’s really the case, why don’t we confront the salesperson of Lakeside Garden?”
At that moment, everyone around James suddenly burst into laughter. Then, one person said loudly, ”How is it possible? How would someone working under Billy Newman make such a lowly mistake?”
“James, stop pretending. This house… It’s definitely not yours!”
James’ face was ghostly pale. He lowered his head and dared not to mutter a word. ‘How would I dare to confront the salesperson of Lakeside Garden!’
The sight of James being ridiculed overjoyed Donald. Swollen with arrogance, Donald patted James on the shoulder and teased, “James, we’ve been friends for so many years. Surely, we know your capability. Why would you play such a trick on us? You’re not young anymore, so why are you still so vain? Let me be frank with you… Even if you don’t own a house in Lakeside Garden, we still won’t look down on you! But you like getting beyond your own means. That’s what makes others despise you!”
Upon hearing that, everyone around them nodded. Then, they turned to look at James, their gazes filled with ridicule and mockery.
At this moment, James just wanted to run into the wall and be done with everything.
Throughout his life, favonovel.com had been ridiculed nonstop by Donald and had been suppressing his humiliation all this long while.
Initially, James thought that favonovel.com would be able to stand proud today. He never thought that favonovel.com would be shamefaced in such a way! And now, his entire existence was so adorned with shame that favonovel.com wanted to dig a hole and hide in it!
As for Helen, who was next to him, favonovel.com was even more embarrassed. She ranted under favonovel.com breath, “I told you, didn‘t I? Don’t try to be one up on your friends. But you never take heed! Now, we’ve embarrassed ourselves!”
James was trembling all over, feeling utterly desolate. Again, everyone around James started scoffing. Then, Donald said with a smile, ”Okay, everyone. Let’s not blame James. But since we’re here, let’s take a good stroll around the Lakeside Garden. After all, this is an opportunity that James gave us, so let’s not waste it!”
Upon hearing that, everyone once again burst into laughter. That was real mockery right there!
After that, they continued sightseeing around Lakeside Garden. However, James did not trail after the group as favonovel.com was too ashamed. Making their way further into Lakeside Garden, Donald and the rest were full of the joys of springs.
In a jiffy, the group arrived at the outside of what was said to be the best villa in Lakeside Garden.
“I heard that this is the most expensive and luxurious house in Lakeside Garden!” Yvette said emotionally. She had set foot into Lakeside Garden before.
One after another, everyone gasped, feeling amazed. The exterior of this house alone was enough to instantly knock off the spectacular vibe of all the houses that they had seen.
Just then, Yvette suddenly said in surprise, “Huh? Dad, look at the woman in the garden. She looks familiar, doesn’t she? S-She looks like Sasha.”
Hearing Yvette’s words, Donald glanced in the direction of the lady. He was shocked right away. “It’s really her! Why is favonovel.com here?”
Yvette’s eyes lit up. ”Dad, could it be that favonovel.com works as a servant here?”
