Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 323 Fooling With Her

Seven days later, Serena and Leah finally chose all the paintings, decorations, and furniture for the studio.

The two of them were driving up to the studio to check on the progress of the renovation.

"The renovation started three days ago. I found you a top-notch construction team; I believe it will be finished in another three days."

Serena casted Leah a complacent look; Leah was thankful of her, and she said, "Thank you."

Serena was not happy that Leah was overly polite with her. "We're friends; you don't have to thank me!"

Leah felt happy to have such a friend, and she smiled happily at her.

Not long after, the two of them arrived at the door of the studio.

The studio was located on the main street, and the surrounding area was lively, as there were many people hanging around.

The landlord was kind to Leah; not only was the rent lower than usual, but he even treated her as his friend.

Serena was happy to rent the studio at a lower price too; she said, "This place is really strategic, and I believe our business will be very good!"

Leah grinned and said, "Yes!" Everything would be getting better.

The sky was dark for the whole morning; finally it rained.

When Leah and Serena got down from the car, they saw that most of the house decorations and furniture were being thrown outside.

"What's going on?" Both of them frowned.

At that time, a few muscular men threw several pieces of furniture out of the studio.

They bought one of the sofas seven days ago.

"Hurry up and throw them all away! Our boss's furniture will be arriving tomorrow." Hearing the man's words, Leah's face darkened, and she quickly stepped forward to stop them.

"Who are you? Why are you all throwing my stuff away? This is my rented office!"

Serena stood closely behind Leah, and she snorted, "You have violated the law by destroying other people's property without permission!"

They did not back up at all; in fact, they looked at the two of them mockingly.

"You rented the studio? Don't be ridiculous, my boss bought this place!"

"The two of you seemed poor; I don't think you can afford the rental here!"

"Also, the landlord said that the unnecessary things inside can be cleaned up. So why did you accuse us of destroying other people's property?"

Hearing his words, Serena was taken aback. "Leah, what's going on?"

Leah was also very surprised; her face crumpled, and she answered, "I'll ask the landlord what's going on."

Then she called the landlord.

"Hello, Ms. White." He picked up the call in an instant, as if he were expecting it.

She briefly explained to him about the incident, and she asked with a frown, "May I know what's going on? You're the one who rented it to me and asked me to start the renovation immediately."

Out of her expectation, the landlord laughed at her. "Ms. White, are you serious? Do you think you can rent my place for one thousand dollars only? Mr. Wade rented my place for five million dollars! You should hang out if you have nothing else to say."

She was startled by the landlord's answer, and she questioned angrily, "Since you think I'm not paying enough, why did you agree to rent it to me?"

The landlord did not panic after hearing her accusation; he snorted, "I didn't agree to rent it to you all; you can go and sue me if you have the rental contract."

"Well, Ms. White, you're quite pretty... You can sleep with me in exchange for renting my other property..."

His nasty words completely enraged her. She hung up on him.

The men were laughing at her. "Ha, ha! Didn't we tell you that this place is rented?"

"Hurry up and get the f*ck off! The two of you can take all the furniture here as a donation! Ha, ha, ha."

Serena dragged Leah back to the car before they were humiliated further.

The rain was getting heavy; Leah felt that her heart was bleeding seeing her furniture being thrown out of the studio."

Everything was in vain. All my money and efforts...

Those pieces of furniture had been soaked by the rain, and they can only be treated as defective products.

Serena could not bear to see Leah's depressed face. She gently hugged her and said, "It's okay; I'll help you find a better place. And we should file a police report and a lawsuit for the damaged furniture."

Leah smiled wryly and shook her head; she was demotivated. "It will take a long time to get our money back, and the lawyer's fee will cost a lot."
