Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

To put it bluntly, the landlord was able to demand an exorbitant price just because his store was at a strategic location.

Mabie had always known that rents at such a good location would not be cheap. Before she came here, she had thought about it carefully. Even though it was expensive, she and David could still help to make up for the differences. In short, as long as Vera was able to open a restaurant and they could still live a decent life, it would do.

However, the rent was too expensive. Wouldn't Vera have to work in vain to break even?

This was a perfect example of putting in a lot of effort in exchange for a low return.

Ralph also felt embarrassed after hearing Mabie's words. He scratched his head and looked at Vera as he said, "I'm really sorry. If you're not satisfied with this store, why don't I show you somewhere else?" Vera nodded and said, "Sure. Sorry to trouble you."

Ralph then brought Vera and Mabie to check out several other stores. During the entire time, Vera was amiable while Mabie looked unhappy.

Once they were done visiting all the potential stores, Ralph apologized once again.

"I'm really sorry. I'm afraid that I wasn't able to find a suitable store for you all. Well, why don't we exchange our numbers and I'll contact you as soon as I find something suitable? What do you think?" "Sounds good."

Vera and Ralph then exchanged numbers. After Ralph left, Mabie said unhappily, "I really don't understand you. The stores that we have just visited clearly weren't as good as the first one. Unfortunately, the rent is too high. What a waste of time."

Upon hearing this, Vera looked helplessly at Mabie and comforted her, "Mom, Ralph spent his entire day accompanying us to visit those stores but did he charge us for it? Not only did he fail to find a suitable store for us, but he also doesn't get a commission, yet he still greeted us with a smile the entire time. We must still at least be respectful. Moreover, I think he still put in the effort to try and find a suitable store for us. As for the first store that we visited, it has nothing to do with him. He is just a middleman. He wasn't the one who set the rent. It did not seem like he had the intention to cheat us. If he really does, he would coax us to sign the contract. Once the contract is signed, he wouldn't care about us since he got his cut already."

After Mabie listened to Vera's words, she suddenly felt that what she said was quite reasonable. "It's my fault. I should not have talked to him like that. Should I call him to apologise?"

Vera smiled at her mother and said, "There's no need. But next time, you have to treat him better. You must not lose your temper."

After finishing her words, Vera suddenly noticed Mabie was staring at her, not saying a word.
