Louis was surprised when he heard this. He shook his head repeatedly and said, "No, Brother. This is your apartment, how could I..."

"This is a property developed by T Corporation. I bought a unit. It was actually meant for you from the start. But Grandpa arranged a villa next door for you after that. So, the apartment was temporarily left in my hands," explained Luke.

"If you're down with it, just take it. If not, consider it a gift for Thea. Once she's 18, I'll hand the property to her."

Louis was greatly shocked.

Houses and properties were never a big deal for the Crawford family as everyone owned several of them.

Even Susan, with a few villas and apartments under her name, had not moved into any of them. She used them for investment or rental purposes instead.

Louis was an exception, having sold all his properties to fund his business for the company.

Otherwise, he would not be in such a mess now.

"Even if it's for Thea, that’s future business.." Louis initially wanted to decline, but he considered that it was meant for Thea. It was up to Thea herself whether to accept or not. As a father, he did not feel right making decisions on behalf of his daughter.

"If you find it hard to accept, just pay some rent each month. How about a thousand dollars?"

Luke knew what he was thinking. Even though they were brothers, being half-siblings did make a difference. Louis did not want people to say he succeeded only because of his brother. That was why he was drawing a line on these little matters.

Louis felt like he was dreaming. Did he hear it wrong?

In A City, a rental of a thousand dollars was only possible in the outskirts. The school Thea attended was a prestigious one, and the rental and selling prices of the properties around it were proportional to its reputation.
