Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

In contrast to how rude Hayden was, the landlord naturally answered obsequiously, given that it was his filthy-rich customer who was calling.

Without wasting any time, Xavier declared in front of Hayden and the mob, “I like your mansion. I want to buy it at three times the market price.”

The way the offer was made sounded exceptionally casual as if he was buying something with his spare change.

As for the landlord, he stammered in shock, “T-Three times? Are you sure?”

“Yes, all in cash. Please prepare the agreement and come over at the first opportunity you have.”

The landlord could not hide the elation in his voice. “Sure, sure. I’ll get it done now and will be right over shortly.”

After grunting in acknowledgment, Xavier inquired in a nonchalant tone, “By the way, I heard you’re well known on the island. Since I’m unfamiliar with these parts, could I get your help to resolve any trouble that I encounter?”

“What? Which fool dares to cause you trouble? Do you know his name? Just let me know, and I guarantee that I’ll teach him a lesson he’ll never forget,” the landlord asserted with furrowed brows.

“I don’t know his name.” Xavier looked up and glanced at the man in his thirties, who was standing beside Hayden. With an emotionless expression, he added, “But you can talk to your nephew about it.”

“Nephew? Which nephew?”

The man beside Hayden raised his hand at once. “Me! Uncle, it’s me, Spike.”

“Spike, you son of a b*tch! What have you done this time? Nothing good ever comes out of you. And yet, you don’t even bother to get a proper job. Wait, why are you in my mansion? The last time, your mom begged me…”
