Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 774

Kate's face fell as she saw how adamant Harold was. She was displeased, but she still mustered her patience to explain things to him. "Don't be so stubborn.

"In this day and age, old and dated courtyard houses in Creybia have all been demolished and rebuilt. So, why are you still so adamant about keeping this old, rotten house in a third-line city?

"This villa that you're staying in right now is something wealthy people despise and what poor people cannot afford. They tell you it's a priceless commodity since it's a hundred-year-old building, but in reality, it's just a broken, rotten, old house that nobody wants.

"Mr. Caldwell is very interested in this villa, and that is a flattering act to you. As long as you sell him the villa, not only would you get a hefty sum, but Henderson Group will also get projects from the Caldwell Group, giving you profound profit by the end of the year."

"No matter what you say, I can't sell this house. This is a testament to the Hendersons' hard work." Harold stood his ground. No matter what Kate said, he refused to relent.

Previously, when Henderson Group had faced difficulties, there were also people who had suggested that he pledge the villa as collateral, but he didn't agree to it no matter how hard it was for him.

This was a house their ancestors had built. This was his bottom line.

"Talk to your husband, Diana. He's too stubborn." Kate realized that it was impossible to talk to Harold, so she looked pointedly at Diana. She was hoping that Diana would help her succeed.

Since Diana was married into the Henderson family later on, she didn't carry as much a sense of duty and pride as Harold did.

To Diana, the villa was no different from any other house.

If she could sell the dated, old-fashioned villa and get a newly developed villa in the central district, it would greatly boost her reputation and fame when she went for high tea with the wealthy ladies from her circle.

However, Diana also knew Harold well. As much as she agreed with Kate, she couldn't show it. Harold was a stubborn man. Once he had decided on something, no one else could change his mind.

If they could sell the villa to Boris, other than being able to get a new house, it would be hard for Diana to not be moved if there was such a great opportunity for the company to be acquainted with Caldwell Group.

So, she watched Harold's expression carefully and tried to say something. "The villa is indeed really important to us, and I agree on not selling it. But Mr. Caldwell is from Creybia's Caldwell family. If we angered him because of this, would he take revenge on us?"

"It's your blessing that Mr. Caldwell likes your villa. How dare Harold still reject the offer so many times? Serves him right for not amounting to anything in his life."

"The company is doing pretty good." Diana listened to Kate's complaints and felt her face burn a little.

"We Hendersons are considered one of the bigger families in Riverdale. Even without Mr. Caldwell, we've lived well."

"Well? My foot!"

Kate rolled her eyes and said in disdain, "All Mr. Caldwell needs to do is say one word, and your little company could double its yearly revenue. That's 200 million dollars of revenue. Such a great benefit and you're not moved? Are you stupid or what?

"What's the use of me wanting this? My husband calls the shots in our household. If he says we're not selling the villa, no one is touching it."
