No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 119



Driven by paternal love, I wanted the amusement park to be flawless, so I reluctantly agreed to help.

Instead of being an official participant, though, I ended up as an unofficial advisor. And get this- for free. It didn't matter, though. As long as the amusement park had a grand finale, I was good. The main thing was, I had nothing else on my plate. I was free as a bird.

I headed to the hotel in the evening. As I was leaving, the door opposite was locked tight. The thought of a man moving in there soon made my skin crawl, leaving me feeling unsettled. Suddenly, an idea struck me. Why not just rent the place myself? The landlord's number was plastered right on the door. I didn't hesitate to call. But when I laid out my plan, the landlord hesitated, "Well... I've already taken a deposit from someone else. It wouldn't be right to go back on my word now."

"I'll double the deposit and return it to him, plus I'll pay more in rent," I said. Peace of mind was worth the extra cost. It's true what they say, money talks. It can buy peace of mind and make people bend their principles.
