The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress

Chapter 1412: Sixth Master Only Scams Relatives

  • Next Chapter

Pauline Briggs said boldly, “We’re all relatives, why talk about money? Just go live there. Anyway, that house isn’t worth much.”

Adrian Desmond: …

The house next door was bought by Adrian for 1.5 million, yet Pauline said it’s not worth much.

“What’s the difference from living here?” Paige Desmond said with a wry smile.

“Then just live here, after all, it’s spacious enough,” Pauline didn’t want Paige to move out.

“Living together is inconvenient, but living close would be nice.”

Kiya looked at Paige and knew Paige wanted to live next door. The house next door seemed similar to the Johnson Family’s layout, too small, Kiya meant to buy a bigger house.

“That house is too small, isn’t it?” Kiya asked cautiously.

“It’s a bit smaller compared to the Abyanabad Imperial Palace, do you really want to find a place like the Abyanabad Imperial Palace in Sileria City?” Paige said, displeased.

Dylan also said, “Dad, I don’t want to move far away. That way I can’t play with Curly. Flower and Fruit Mountain is great, I want to live at Flower and Fruit Mountain.”

“Dylan, if you live at Flower and Fruit Mountain, wouldn’t you become Monkey King?” Curly said.

“I’m not a monkey!”

Paige said to Kiya, “The Flower and Fruit Mountain next door is great, just next door. I also don’t want to be too far from my brother’s family.”

“…”

“Moreover, we’re unfamiliar with Sileria City. We still need to rely on my sister-in-law.”

Sienna Johnson said, “We’re all family. You staying in Sileria City, we will take care of you.”

For Adrian’s only sister, Sienna still cared deeply.

She loved Adrian, so she loved Adrian’s sister.

Thinking about the Dowager Queen, Sienna couldn’t understand.

If the Dowager Queen truly loved her son, why did she hate Paige so much, to the point of wanting the other party dead?

Sienna glanced at Sheehan, pondering that one day she would also become someone’s mother-in-law, thinking: Even if one day, her son married a woman she didn’t like, they should just not live together.

She loved Sheehan, so even if she couldn’t love Sheehan’s wife, she would respect her. At least, she wouldn’t become like the Dowager Queen.

Curly also said, “Aunt, you should live next door, that way I can climb the wall to see you guys.”

Sienna laughed, “Why climb the wall, can’t you just use the door?”

“Climbing the wall is quicker.”

“You’re just lazy.”

Finally, after a unanimous discussion, Kiya’s opinion was ignored, and they chose the “Flower and Fruit Mountain” next door.

The Flower and Fruit Mountain was sold to Kiya.

Adrian was particularly ruthless, not only did he not give Kiya a discount for being his brother-in-law, but he also gouged him. The price for the “Flower and Fruit Mountain” next door was three times higher than what Adrian originally paid.

At night, when no one was around, Sienna reprimanded Adrian.

“They’re family, not giving them a discount is one thing, but how can you seize the opportunity to make a fortune? That’s too much. I’m embarrassed for you.” Sienna did not agree with Adrian’s behavior.

“Why are you worried about him? The Abyanabad Royal Family is wealthy.”

“Kiya isn’t the Sultan anymore, where does he have money?”

Adrian looked at Sienna like she was foolish, “Kiya just abdicated, do you really think Kiya gave all the Abyanabad Royal Family wealth to Randall?”

“Inheriting the throne means inheriting the wealth, doesn’t it?”

“No!”

Sienna realized Adrian was sidetracking the topic, even if Kiya had money, it wasn’t a reason for Adrian to fleece relatives.

“Still, selling to Kiya for triple the price isn’t right.”

“I’d want to sell it for ten times the price!”

Adrian was still angry at Kiya; if not for Paige and the kids, Adrian would have been tougher on him.

“Adrian, don’t be so excessive.”

“Kiya hasn’t said anything; why do you care about his money?” Adrian found Sienna meddlesome.

“You don’t like Kiya, but Paige is your sister. Aren’t you embarrassed to charge her so much for the house? I’m embarrassed for you.”

“I’m selling to Kiya, not my sister.”

“Kiya is Paige’s husband, isn’t Kiya’s money your sister’s money?”

In Sienna’s view, once two people got married, they were family and shared everything.

Adrian didn’t have confidence in the two and said, “The temptation of power is great. Maybe Kiya is willing to abdicate now, but who knows if he’ll regret it after some time?”

Sienna was more optimistic than Adrian, “Kiya’s eyes when he looks at Paige are filled with love; I believe in Kiya.”

“Do you know him to say you trust him?”

Sienna, dressed in a white robe, kneeled on the bed and hugged Adrian’s neck from behind, “If you can give so much for me, what else is impossible?”

“Don’t compare Kiya to me, I’m not as incompetent as him. At least I wouldn’t let you nearly die in a car accident.”

As soon as Sienna heard Adrian’s words, she knew Adrian was still angry at Kiya, as Paige nearly lost her life.

“… I still say, look on the bright side, take a step back, and it’s all clear and broad.”

“Hmm!”

“Aren’t we good now? If neither of us had given ground initially, disgusted by the thought of marrying into a family, bitter about the hurt, how could we be as happy as we are now?

Adrian, don’t you agree?”

Adrian held the hands crossed over his chest, thought for a moment, and said, “When my mother passed away, she instructed me to take good care of my sister. I didn’t manage to…

If during the car accident, Paige really…” that terrible word, Adrian couldn’t say it.

“How could I face my parents’ trust?”

“Adrian, you’re great.” Sienna rubbed her face against his cheek and said, “You don’t know how much I envy Paige for having such a good brother like you.”

“Hey, I don’t want to be your brother!”

“…”

“I’m your man!”

“Got it!”

…

Kiya’s family moved in the day before New Year’s Eve, Pauline found someone to calculate that it was a good day for everything.

Harrison Harris’s family continued living there, Kiya hired him as the gardener. Kiya offered a good salary, so Harrison quit other jobs, focusing solely on looking after his son.

Farrell Harris was no longer that pitiful kid; now he was well-fed, dressed warmly, had a fuller face, and his grades improved. Harrison saw hope, improved his temper, stopped smoking and drinking, saving money for Farrell’s college.

Some introduced Harrison to potential partners, but Harrison feared his son might be bullied by a stepmother, so he refused, living with his son.

“Aunt, can this house still be called Flower and Fruit Mountain?”
