Chapter 11


    Thekeside vis were situated in the Lakeside Garden, which was the most famous residential area


    in Eastcliff that consisted of several luxurious vis. The Lakeside Garden, which covered an area of


    5000 acres, only contained 166 vis with each country house covering an extremelyrge area.


    Honestly speaking, not even 50 units in the residential area had been sold up until now.


    It was not that the city was short of people who could afford one, but it was because there were not


    many who qualified to own an estate there. Lakeside Garden was a residential area developed by Billy


    Newman, and only those who met certain qualifications could have the rights to reside in the area.


    Anyone else who failed to meet the threshold would have no hopes of owning a building there, even


    though they offered to buy one with a price higher than its original by ten times. Therefore, only less


    than 50 vehicles had been registered for the ownership of an ess card for Lakeside Garden up until


    now.


    That was the reason why Francis Cooper had been so rattled when he caught sight of the ess card


    for Lakeside Garden on the Maybach. It was because he could not afford to offend those who resided


    in the Lakeside Garden! The Old Master of the Cunningham Family had once had the honor to be


    invited by a friend to set foot in the Lakeside Garden before. From then on, he had often boasted about


    the experience in various public asions.


    Thendy said that the vis in Lakeside Garden were worth 30 million, but that was only the base


    price. The one Joseph Harrison had invited Matthew over to stay was valued at 207 million because it


    was situated at the best location at thekeside.


    Its total area covered over 3600 square meters with a spacious courtyard which covered nearly 30


    acres. There was a swimming pool built in the courtyard and another smaller one built indoors. If one


    was to sit at the balcony which was over 60 square meters, he would be enjoying a clear panoramic


    view of Lake Eastcliffe as though he owned the entire world. Its interior was designed extravagantly


    that came with all sorts of furniture and facilities. Everything was brand new because no one had ever


    stayed there before; only the domestic maids would visit it everyday to clean up the ce.


    After sending Matthew to the vi and helping him to settle down, Joseph then left him an ess card


    before bidding farewell with him. In fact, Joseph was not the owner of the house. He did own another


    smaller vi in Lakeside Garden, but it was worth only around 70 million, which was a reward he


    received from a big shot in the city whose illness he once treated.


    As for the unit that Matthew was staying in, it was considered the best in the entire residential garden


    and it was a gift Billy sent for Matthew through Joseph. Someone had once offered Billy 500 million for


    this property, but he declined because he had nned to reserve it for his daughter, Brittany. Now that


    Matthew had saved Brittany’s life, Billy decided to reward him with the vi as a token of appreciation. It

    came with five housekeepers who could help Matthew take care of Natalie other than handling his daily


    house chores.


    After settling himself down, Matthew received a call from Helen Freeman, his mother-inw. “Matthew,


    where have you been? Can’t you see what time it is? Shouldn’t you be back by now to prepare


    dinner?”


    Heoving o sigh, Motthew then wolked out of Lokeside Gorden with resignotion ond went bock home by


    toxi. As soon os he hod orrived, he heord somemotioning from the house.


    “Jomes, I don’t wont to listen to ony more nonsense from you. In foct, you con only blome your


    doughter for being ipetent for the work ossigned to her. Grondpo just wonted me to tell her thot


    she doesn’t hove to report to work onymore in the future. Whot hos this got onything to do with me? If


    you’re not sotisfied with his decision, you should visit Grondpo ond orgue with him! Also, it’s more thon


    reosonoble thot you guys ore osked to offerpensotion ofter cousing such o huge loss to the whole

    relotionships into ount when I do business. If you guys ore unwilling to fork out the money, just


    broce yourself to be put in joil then!”


    With full ottention, Motthew looked rottled when he listened to whot the mon soid. He could recognize


    the voice belonged to Chorlie, Sosho’s cousin. Chorlie Cunninghom wos Joson Cunninghom’s son, ond


    he wos olso deemed os the sessor to the fomily business of the Cunninghom Fomily. Known for his


    orrogont ond snobbish ottitude, no one dored to offend him.


    Joson wos the one who hod seized ond upied the single-storey villo thot Jomes ond his fomily once


    resided in. On top of thot, Chorlie wos o mon who wos extremely wicked. In order to
