Chapter 25
“I was just saying. Mom, no need to get all worked up. Besides, even if Astrid becomes the CEO’s wife, you don’t have to beg for mercy!” Lucinda bit her lip, feeling uneasy at the thought of Astrid not marrying that
idiot Colton
She had originally planned to mock Astrid once she married that fool, but she didn’t expect their engagement to be suddenly called off.
“We have to apologize to her! You never consider how we treated her in the past. If she really becomes the wife of the Lampard Group’s CEO, she could destroy our company in a heartbeat. I don’t fancy returning to those hard times‘ Sandra paused and continued, “But don’t worry, Lucinda. That will never happen, If Fannie who’s pretty much a perfect star, couldn’t catch Mr Lampard’s eye, how could Astrid, with her dublous reputation, ever be his type?”
“I hope so” Lucinda felt even more annoyed thinking about Astrid’s upcoming role in a TV show She had always wanted to break into the entertainment industry herself. Despite being a popular live–streamer on Tomate Live, and the platform arranging for her to play minor roles in some shows, her acting career never took off.
Astrid, on the other hand, easily landed a significant role Was it because she was prettier, and therefore more fortunate? Lucinda wasn’t about to let Astrid get off easy.
Oblivious to Lucinda’s resentment, Astrid was Happily house hunting. “Wow, Alan, if we hadn’t just met, I’d think you’ve been spying on me. This place is perfect! It’s like it was custom–made for me!”
To avoid being recognized by Astrid, Carson had asked his cousin, Alan Fisher, a real estate agent, to help.
Alan wiped his sweat silently Indeed, it was custom–made for you, Astrid!
Mr Lampard had bought the entire building, concerned that Astrid might not like this specific apartment. If she didn’t, there were other vacant units she could check out.

Alan was increasingly baffled by the world of the rich. Casually buying an entire building was mind–boggling!
“Ms Irvine, we can sign the contract now if there’s no problem, Alan suggested.
“No problem, no problem. We can sign right away. Do you guys do quarterly or annual payments?‘ Astrid didn’t even ask about the rent. She loved the place so much that she didn’t mind whatever the rent was. Alan replied, “Both are acceptable.“)
“Wow you guys are so kind!” Astrid exclaimed as Alan handed her the contract. She was shocked when she saw the rent, “A thousand? Are you sure there’s no mistake, Mr Fisher? A fully furnished two–bedroom apartment in the city center for just a thousand?”
Alan took a second before responding seriously, “The landlord has over a hundred properties In this area. The rent depends on his mood. This is his price. Plus, he’s also throwing in a set of household items for free.” Actually, Carson had bought all these items and asked Alan to bring them. Carson had promised a reward as long as Alan didn’t screw up.
Seeing a bag of toiletries that Alan brought in, Astrid couldn’t help but chuckle. The landlord was certainly unusual, giving away Items when the rent was already dirt cheap. But she had checked the property online and found no issues.
