Chapter 139:
He just wanted to have dinner with her and had no ulterior motives. She had misinterpreted.
“What do you need us to do, sir? Do not hesitate to tell us.” Today’s commission for Marlin and Aiken was quite large. The man standing before them was like their boss now.
“Notify the prior occupant of the villa to vacate the premises tonight. You and your partner will clean the villa for extra cash.”
When Milton approached the door, he had an idea. Turning around, he said, “Find the decorator who designed the Blake family’s home and get the original design concepts and the final house images. Then, ask the house’s previous owner about all the changes they made to the villa. Do you realize that I want everything restored to its previous state? At all costs, you should return the villa to its design from three years ago. If you manage to get this done, I’ll purchase this agency and give it to you as a bonus.”
Then, with an air of superiority, he strode out.
“Absolutely, sir!”
“We’ll get it done, sir!”
Aiken and Marlin froze and exchanged glances.
Did he just say that once everything was done, they would own the agency? That day had just changed their fortunes forever!
Milton left the agency.

But she didn’t.
She walked all the way downtown.

The sun had set, and the lights were now on.
She seemed sad and alone in the dim light. He continued to follow her silently.
Candice kept walking. She used to take evening strolls along this road with her mother when they still lived in their villa. She walked for a while before reaching the city’s busy commercial area.
There were many stores, vehicles, and dazzling lights.
A vision of her mother’s warm smile suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Her eyes brimmed with tears once again.
She walked the entire way.
There was no way Candice could have expected to encounter Madilyn at such an emotional moment. Madilyn was with two other members of the ballet troupe, blocking Candice’s path.
“You’ve got the nerve to come out again, right? Last I heard, you were holed up at home!” Madilyn said sarcastically.
