The salesdy was in a state of panic, fearing for her job after inadvertently offending Charlie. However, Charlie merely waved his hand dismissively and reassured her in a soft voice, “Don’t worry, this is just a minor issue. I won’t hold it against you.”


    He then continued, “By the way, could you exin what Vi A05 is to everyone here who may not be aware?”


    The salesdy quickly gathered herposure and exined, “The vis in Thompson First are categorized into four types: A, B, C, and D. The most exclusive category is A, which features thergest floor ns. Each Vi A is three stories tall,plete with a basement, and has a private elevator. Each vi spans over one thousand square meters and includes both front and rear courtyards. The price tag for one of these vis exceeds one hundred million dors, making it the priciest vi in Thompson First and possibly the entirety of Aurous Hill!”


    As she concluded her exnation, the crowd stood in stunned silence, their jaws dropped.


    Charlie owned a vi valued at over one hundred million dors? How could someone in such casual attire possess such an opulent property?<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Meanwhile, Harold’s expression soured, and his family—his parents and sister—were seething with envy.


    Wendy, unable to contain her curiosity, asked, “Charlie, how did you manage to buy this vi?”


    With a faint smile, Charlie replied, “Someone gifted it to me.”


    “Why would anyone give you this vi?” Wendy shot back, her toneced with anger. She felt a wave of despair wash over her as she realized she might never inhabit a home as luxurious as this, while someone like Charlie did.


    Charlie, uninterested in defending himself, simply turned his attention to Harold. “Harold, didn’t you say you’d jump off the highest floor of this building if I owned one of these houses? When do you n to make that leap?”


    Harold’s face turned a shade pale as he clenched his fists in frustration. “Charlie, you little rat! Don’t act smug with me! I still refuse to believe that you can actually afford this vi, or that anyone would gift it to you. It’s simply impossible! Now tell me the truth—how did you get this vi?”


    Charlie shook his head with a smile, saying, “It seems some people are just incapable of epting defeat.”


    Then he turned to Harold, stating, “With your capabilities, the best you could ever afford is a basic high-rise unit nearby. It looks like you’ll be the one left guarding my vi. Just remember, you’ll never be able to afford to live here in this lifetime!”


    “You…”


    Harold’s expression darkened. This was the first time Charlie had ever insulted him, and what gnawed at him even more was the fact that he couldn’t retaliate!


    How could he? Even if they pooled all their resources, the fanciest house they could buy would only be a modest two hundred and forty square meter unit. Choosing to buy that would put immense financial pressure on his family. Meanwhile, Charlie owned the grandest and most luxurious vi in the area! The disparity between their situations was insurmountable!


    Moreover, Harold could no longer tolerate Charlie’s calm and arrogant demeanor. It felt like a deliberate provocation.


    With gritted teeth, Harold said, “Charlie, don’t you have any respect for the Wilson family? You own such an extravagant vi, yet you’ve said nothing to us!”


    Charlie smiled and responded, “But I thought you always imed I’m not part of the Wilson family. Why should I owe you any exnations?”


    Turning away, Charlie addressed ire, “My dear wife, shall we take a look at our new vi?”


    ire, taken aback, eximed, “This… Charlie, what’s happening?”


    Charlie smiled and assured her, “I’ll exin everythingter.”


    Just then, a familiar voice broke through the conversation.


    “Oh! Eldest Brother and Sister-in-Law, are you two buying a house in Thompson First? That’s incredible!”<fn4ea9> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? find[?]ovel</fn4ea9>
