Chapter 177 House Viewing
Early the following morning, Jared went to his mansion at Dragon Bay with the meat reishi mushroom in hand after informing his parents that he was going out.
At that very moment, Zayne, Maria, and Lydia were arguing with the security guard at the entrance of Dragon Bay.
“Why are you forbidding us from entering? We’re here to buy a house! Is this how you treat your clients?” Maria bellowed at the security guard.
She was initially in a good mood when she came to take a look at the houses in Dragon Bay. When the commission was approved, she would have enough for the down payment for a place there. While she couldn’t afford a mansion on the hill, she could apply for a loan and purchase one at the foot of the hill.
Unexpectedly, the security guard refused to let them in when they arrived. That had her flipping her lid.
“If you want to buy a house, you can go to the sales gallery next door. Entry is prohibited before you’re a property owner,” the security guard replied indifferently.
“How are we to buy a house if we don’t go in and view the property?” Maria continued contending.
“If you want to have a viewing, you can have a sales representative bring you in. You can’t enter alone. That’s our policy here.”
The security guard remained rooted at the entrance, blocking them from entering the neighborhood.
“Forget about it, Maria. Let’s go to the sales gallery first and have the sales representative bring us in,” Zayne urged as he tugged at Maria.
Although he was likewise miffed, he didn’t dare kick up a fuss there, since they were in Dragon Bay, the best neighborhood in the whole of Horington. All who lived there were big shots, so he dared not make a scene when he was just an insignificant department manager.
Following that, Maria could only shoot the security guard a glare and threaten, “Just you wait! When I’ve become a property owner here, I’ll have the management sack you!”
They then left and went to the sales gallery. Meanwhile, the security guard sneered, “How ridiculous! She really thinks that she’s some bigwig!”
In no time, the security guard waved a hand. “Hurry up and open the gate! It’s Mr. Chance!”
Upon hearing that it was Jared, the security guard at the entrance hurriedly opened the gate. When Jared drove past, all the guards promptly saluted him.
But just when he was about to enter the gate, a red Maserati darted in front of his car, wanting to cut him off and get into the neighborhood ahead of him.
Having insufficient time to brake, he rear-ended the Maserati. That turn of events rendered the few security guards dumbfounded. Never had they expected a car to zip over all of a sudden and cause an accident.
As the accident happened at the entrance of the neighborhood, they were also considered partially responsible. Therefore, they all glowered at the red Maserati.
“Do you even know how to drive? How dare you ram into my car when you’re just driving a shabby Ford? Do you know how much my car costs?”
A woman with sunglasses and a fashionable straw hat on her head started cursing at Jared after getting out of the car. She was infuriated when she saw that her beloved car took a hit.

Josephine's first time seeing Jared kill isn't with Leyton but with Falcon. Pay attention to your work....
You need to correct yourself,dear author. Josephine was in the City of Herbs when she was a kid, so why is the city's smell surprising to her?...
