Chapter 256 The Old Residence

“Mom, the area where the old residence is located will be developed soon. It’ll be worth a lot of money in the future!”

In truth, Jared was not interested in that meager sum of money. He simply did not want Benedict and his family to benefit from it.

“What? It’s going to be developed? Are you sure?”

Excitement instantly surged within Hannah as soon as she heard that piece of news. If that’s true, we’ll be able to earn quite a sum after selling the house!

Do you think an ex-convict like him has the right to visit Mr. Lowe’s house?” Benedict coldly glanced at Jared before he continued, “Do you know how much risk it takes for me to find Jared a job as a government official, given his past? But fret not; I’ll still find him a job, and I won’t take that old residence for free. In exchange, I’ll give you a hundred thousand.
