His Lordship Alexander Kane by Useless Caesar

Chapter 0154

“Are you pleased?”

Lewis’s question hung in the air, and Amber froze in shock.

However, it was not just Amber, but everyone, save for Alexander, was utterly taken aback.

The mayor of Ol‘ Mare himself had come forward, offering Missus Thompson a villa in the name of neighborhood redevelopment. The demolition of the Habergam area was ages away. That was an outright gift!

Was that extravagant present from Mayor Christian for Missus Thompson’s birthday all because Amber had put in a good word?

That was beyond belief!

“Mister Christian, I… I don’t know what to say.” Amber looked uncomfortable and was at a loss for words.

A whole villa!

Even with the redevelopment of Habergam, families would only get a commercial property and some cash, around 50 thousand dollars at most. However, those villas at Valenders Pavilion, though not huge, were in a prime spot, worth way more than a handful of commercial

properties.

The birthday gift was overwhelmingly generous!

To top it off, Mayor Christian did not just offer that jaw–dropping gift. He actually sought Amber’s approval, asking if it met her

expectations.

Was that some kind of alternate reality? It was downright incredible!
