Thinking of Alicia, Frederick's determined face softened a little.

"Promise Garden. That's my current residence. I need you to help me scout some suitable properties. The house doesn't need to be too big, either a single or double storey will do. A few hundred square feet will do, make sure it's low-rise where is suitable for seniors to live in, safe and a touch of luxury. A shop lot is okay too but don't rent it, just buy it. Renting is far too troublesome."

Wasn't Alicia's mother running a small business of her own? Since Alicia often got homesick, bringing her mother to live nearby would make her happy! Although it was not a problem for Frederick to have more people in his home, he had subconsciously hoped that there would be more privacy, as he didn't want his time with Alicia to be disturbed.

After much thought, he decided a place nearby would be best.

Being close to her, it was convenient for him to take care of her. Even if they fought, he would be able to pick her up in the middle of the night, or even stay overnight there! Her current home, even if he wanted to, there was nowhere for him to sleep!

For a moment, Chet's mind didn't register what was being said, "Frederick, this is...?"

There were already many houses under his name, he had a villa at Dorsett Residences which was near Landrum Garden!

"Alicia gets homesick easily! I want to bring my mother-in-law over, so we can bond and get closer! She alone cannot fill the emptiness of such a big house! A two-story small condominium is the best! If her mom likes doing business, let her continue, if she does not, find a servant to look after her! Either way is fine. If I'm not mistaken, the properties in Promise Garden's vicinity only consist of luxury villas and normal condos"

Even if he bought more land and built a house there, he would not be able to get the house as close to his location, and there simply was not enough time, he could only choose the properties nearby. "Frederick, you've really changed a lot!"

He was used to being alone. Perhaps his childhood experience had shaped him that way. His self- survival instinct was very strong, and he was a guarded person who liked his own privacy. This was not to say that he was stingy with his wealth, on the contrary, he was generous. But his need for his own private space was so extreme that even at home, no one could enter the house, not even the resident servants. Even when he was in a relationship with Danica, he never allowed her to stay overnight. Now, he actually took the initiative to include Alicia's mother into his daily life.

This was absolutely unimaginable!

In his very private life, he had always been very closed off! His attitude was frosty and frigid, like a fierce leopard guarding it's territory. Sharing would have definitely not been an option for him!
