Chapter 605 The nwas unfamiliar to him.
Tarquin's voice was icy, "Why doesn't he want to sell at a high price? Did he give a reason?" "He says the Future Community is close to his work, which is convenient for him." "Are there no other listings available in the community?" "As luck would have it, there's nothing available lately. The listings that were up before the holidays got snapped up fast after that stunt double's suicide. It really brought down the property values in Future Community, and the listings sold like hotcakes." Lowell added, "But if you're willing to consider other buildings, we might have something to talk about." After all, those who bought at a low price generally wouldn't refuse to sell at a high price.
Keith was an exception.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTarquin frowned. Living in another building was out of the question; he was moving there for Elijah and Elysia. Why would he live anywhere else? The other buildings were too far from them. Living right across from them was ideal! "Did you meet with this Keith face-to-face?" "No, he's not in Jindale City right now. Probably won't be back until after the 15th, when the preschool starts." Tarquin pondered for a moment, "Look into his background." After all, with Elysia and the three kids living there, and Elijah planning to move in, it was essential to check out anyone who seemed out of the ordinary living across the door.
He had just ended the call and returned to the hospital room when Keaton suddenly appeared.
The ladies' man arrived with an armful of roses and the latest limited edition LEGO sets in hand.
There were four LEGO sets-one for Elijah and the others for Elliot, Evan, and Emmett.
The kids were thrilled, thanking him repeatedly.
Elysia was happy with the roses, and although she was polite and somewhat distant with Keaton, she greeted him with a smile and gentle warmth. She even sneaked a sniff of the roses when she placed them by the window, clearly loving them.
Keaton's grin was wide, "Elijah owes a lot to Ms. Thorne's care. As his godfather, I couldn't be more grateful. If there's ever anything I can do to help, just say the word. Once Elijah's out of the hospital, dinner's on me." Before Elysia could respond, Keaton found himself on the receiving end of a kick.
He turned to see who it was. Tarquin, acting as if nothing had happened, didn't even glance his way but spoke softly to Elysia, "Stay with the kids, I need to have a word with him outside." Keaton, puzzled, asked, "Why do we need to talk outside?" "You're too loud!" Keaton found himself being dragged outside by Tarquin, straight to the smoking area. There, Keaton protested, "What do you mean, too loud? Seems tolike you're just jealous because I'm popular, and Elysia and the kids like me." Tarquin's face darkened as he warned coldly, "Stay away from Elysia!" Keaton narrowed his eyes, "Jealous? Upset that Elysia liked the flowers I brought?" Tarquin rolled his eyes and lit a cigarette.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYes, he was jealous and upset! He hadn't even gotten around to giving Elysia flowers, and here was Keaton, beating him to the punch! And seeing how much Elysia liked them made his heart sour!
Keaton chuckled, "Who's to blif you don't bring her flowers? She's not e going to fall for you just like that!" "She likes money!" "But you can't just give money! You have to put thought into your gifts to move her. Get it?"
Tarquin took a drag on his cigarette, silent. He had no experience in m wooing women. She liked money, so he found ways to give it to her. He hadn't considered other gifts.
And since Elysia didn't seem to like him, would she even accept a gift from him?
The thought of her possibly rejecting it outright made Tarquin irritable as proses he took another drag. Who loses and who gains when a man strips down for a woman?" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
