James was deeply moved.


    Talents like him were highly sought after by everypany, but there weren''t many bosses as generous as me.


    I didn''t ask for much. I just hoped he would stay with mypany. As long as he


    didn''t get greedy and keep thinking about switching jobs, I would be satisfied. With his abilities, he could have the new game ready for release within six months.


    Soon, mypany would break into thepetitive gaming world, going head- to-head with the industry giants.


    The winner would take it all, and the loser would be left behind.


    My goal was to be the best.


    After handing over the keys to James and his family, I left the vi.


    Thendscaping in the area was impressive. Since I had plenty of time, I wasn''t in


    a rush. I decided to stroll around the neighborhood and took a few pictures, nning to send them to Feliciater.


    As I crouched down in front of a flower bed to take a selfie, I suddenly noticed a face appear in the frame.


    Startled, I stood up quickly and found Crystal standing right in front of me. Her friend from yesterday was with her.


    "William!" Crystal called out cheerfully when she saw me. "I knew you couldn''t resist me. You pretended to reject me, but here you are. You''re quite the yer."


    With augh, she walked up to me, grabbed my phone from my hand, and took a selfie of us together.


    If Felicia saw this, I would never be able to exin myself.


    Women like Crystal were really frustrating. They assumed every man in the world should adore them just because they were attractive. Honestly, I couldn''t stand this type of woman.


    I frowned and quickly deleted the photo. Then I exined, "You


    misunderstood. I didn''te


    Pgos Estates to meet


    you."


    Crystal crossed her arms with a confident smile. "If you didn''te here to see


    me, then why are you here?"


    I sighed, feeling a little annoyed. "What else? I bought a house here."


    Upon hearing that, Crystal''s expression shifted to one of surprise.


    She then turned to her friend, and the two of them shared augh.


    Crystal''s friend gave me a mocking look. "You bought a house here? Which one?"


    I retorted, "Why would I tell you?"


    With how annoying they were, I had no intention of giving them the answer.


    However, her friend burst into


    identally point to the Wel.ne


    house-maybe even one of ours-and embarrass yourself?"


    It wasughable. They thought I was just bragging. Clearly, they were


    underestimating me.


    "Fine. Since you''re so curious, I''ll show you," I said.


    Then, I pointed to the two vis I had just bought. "See that house over there?


    And that one? Both of them are mine."
