The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 44

Felix blinked in surprise. He didn't expect that Sasha thought his purchase of the villa was linked to selling the porcelain teapot.

"Well, it's up to you if you want to think that way." He was unwilling to explain or clarify, as it would likely lead to endless questioning. After the house tour, Warren was quite pleased. Suddenly, he felt a bit unwell.

When Warren went to the washroom, Nattie took the opportunity to say, "The gold you gave us back then was worth at most ten million dollars. Now this villa is valued at 25 million dollars. "If I say the extra amount is interest, you probably wouldn't believe it yourself! But in any case, we are fully settled. Do you have any issues with that?"

Felix was nearly convinced by Nattie's logic. She talked as if the porcelain teapot belonged to her.

"Fine. Whatever you say," Felix replied.

Nattie then took out a printed document. "I understand you likely don't have the original IOU with you, so just sign this. Otherwise, it's just an empty promise." When he gave the gold to Warren back then, Nattie also insisted on a formal IOU.
