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!

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
