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.

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

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

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