Chapter 232

    With the six-million-dor debt cleared, Rachel thought she could finally sleep peacefully. Little did she expect that Howard was still fixated on having a son.


    He suggested, "The vi I bought for you is by the river, with great scenery and fresh air. Why don''t we move there together? You can focus on your health, and we''ll have our son with us sooner. What do you think?"


    Rachel''s sleepiness disappeared in an instant. She didn''t think that was a good idea at all.


    She had just sold off the vi in a hurry, and the six million dors had already been transferred to Serena. With Howard insisting on moving in, she was at aplete loss as to where to find him a vi.


    She replied, "Howard, our son was conceived in this house, so of course, we should stay here. It''s the best ce to wee him home."


    "There''s no rush. We''ll move in first and focus on your health. Once you''re fully recovered, we cane back. It would be such a waste to let that expensive vi sit unused." Howard embraced her tightly. His voice was filled with concern and tenderness.


    Rachel tried to argue, but she feared that rejecting the idea too firmly would make Howard suspicious. In the end, she could only soothe him to sleep and deal with it tomorrow. As for her, it was yet another sleepless night.


    The next morning, Howard appeared well-rested and instructed his assistant to contact a movingpany to start packing up his belongings. The situation had reached a point of no return.


    Fearing he would uncover the truth, Rachel urgently called Sarah. "I still have hundreds of thousands of dors set aside. Hurry and find someone to rent back the vi we just sold. If your dad moves in and finds out I''ve sold the house, we''ll bepletely doomed!"


    Terrified, Sarah was drenched in sweat. She didn''t dare dy and immediately set out to rent the vi.


    The buyer, though puzzled by their erratic behavior, saw no reason to turn down easy money.


    "Well, hundreds of thousands of dors a year in rent sounds fair," the buyer said greedily.


    Sarah almost lost her temper, but remembering that Howard''s move was imminent, she gritted her teeth and held back. "Fine. But you must keep this matter strictly confidential."


    "Sure," the buyer agreed nonchntly.


    Sarah transferred the million-dor annual rent, feeling as if she were bleeding inside.


    Rachel, though just as pained, had no choice but to endure it to avoid exposing the truth.


    While the Jansen family was busy moving, Serena followed the original n and returned to the vi with her calico cat. As she inspected the porcin her mother had left behind, she also let the little cat roam freely in the yard, knowing how much it loved to explore.


    Two young maids were in the yard, ying with the cat, while the butler respectfully presented a selection of gifts. "The new owner of the vi is about to move in. These are the gifts we''ve prepared. Please have a look."


    "Let me see." Serena wasn''t surprised at all and stepped forward to check the list.


    The vimunity was home to top figures from various industries. Though she didn''t usually socialize, it never hurt to know more people. Exchanging gifts was just a way to establish connections. One never knew when such connections mighte in handy.


    She reviewed the list, and her gaze fixed on thest name. "Ms. Lloyd?"


    "Yes. Initially, the owner was a man with a different surname, but today, the property management unexpectedly informed us that a woman named Lloyd would be moving in instead. We''ve quickly updated the greeting card," one of the maids replied respectfully.


    Once again, Serena thought about the six million dors, and a suspicion stirred within her. However, she couldn''t be entirely sure just yet.
