Chapter 139 The Villa

68%齒

Transportation to Taragon University was very convenient. There was a bus stop right outside that could take you there in just four minutes.

While moderately sized, the two–storied villa provided ample room for her to live alone.

It was well–equipped with all essential amenities and featured an appealing decor style.

However, Isabelle’s main issue with the villa was its location in a busy area, surrounded by major roads, a nearby park, a shopping mall, and even an overpass view.

The ongoing hustle and bustle, constant traffic, and bright lights posed challenges for activities that require privacy, such as discreetly disposing of a body.

“Do you like it?” George Harris asked.

“It’s nice, but not very convenient, Isabelle responded.

George pressed on. “How so? Is it transportation or something else?”

Dylan, who was standing beside them, sensed the tension.

Although Isabelle had not explicitly expressed her dissatisfaction, George could tell she was not pleased with the villa.

“If you don’t like it, I have several other properties nearby that we could look at,” George offered.

Isabelle had already inspected the other properties nearby, all of which were similar.
