    Chapter 1077 Get Beyond One’s Means


    Upon hearing Yvette’s words, everyone shifted their gazes toward the Cunningham Family with doubts


    on their faces.


    In a fit of panic, James immediately defended himself. “W-Why can’t this house belong to me? What


    proof do you have to say that this house is not mine?”


    Seeing James still holding onto his lies, Yvette sneered. “What proof? My husband was here to view this


    house three days ago! At that time, the salesperson made it clear that this house had not been sold yet!”


    Yvette’s statement instantly created an uproar among the group.


    “Is this true? Three days ago, this house was yet to be sold?”


    “Didn’t James say that he had bought it a few months ago? Does this mean he is lying?”


    “That’s highly possible! After all, James likes to bite off more than he can chew.”


    “Well, this is embarrassing…”


    Everyone started whispering, and some even immediately jeered at James.


    Face as white as a sheet, James refuted in a trembling voice, “B-Bullsh*t! This house… I-I bought it long


    ago…”


    Once again, Yvette sneered. “Oh, really? If what you said is true, does that mean the Lakeside Garden


    salesperson had made a mistake? They actually showed the houses that they have sold to other


    buyers? If that’s really the case, why don’t we confront the salesperson of Lakeside Garden?”


    At that moment, everyone around James suddenly burst intoughter. Then, one person said loudly,


    “How is it possible? How would someone working under Billy Newman make such a lowly mistake?”


    “James, stop pretending. This house… It’s definitely not yours!”


    James’ face was ghostly pale. He lowered his head and dared not to mutter a word. How would I dare to


    confront the salesperson of Lakeside Garden!


    The sight of James being ridiculed overjoyed Donald.


    Swollen with arrogance, Donald patted James on the shoulder and teased, “James, we’ve been friends


    for so many years. Surely, we know your capability. Why would you y such a trick on us? You’re not


    young anymore, so why are you still so vain? Let me be frank with you: Even if you don’t own a house in


    Lakeside Garden, we still won’t look down on you! But you like getting beyond your own means. That’s


    what makes others despise you!”


    Upon hearing that, everyone around them nodded. Then, they turned to look at James, their gazes filled


    with ridicule and mockery.


    At this moment, James just wanted to run into the wall and be done with everything.


    Throughout his life, he had been ridiculed nonstop by Donald and had been suppressing his humiliation


    all this long while. Initially, James thought that he would be able to stand proud today. He never thought


    that he would be shamefaced in such a way! And now, his entire existence was so adorned with shame


    that he wanted to dig a hole and hide in it!


    As for Helen, who was next to him, she was even more embarrassed. She ranted under her breath, “I


    told you, didn’t I? Don’t try to be one up on your friends. But you never take heed! Now, we’ve


    embarrassed ourselves!”


    James was trembling all over, feeling utterly deste.


    Again, everyone around James started scoffing. Then, Donald said with a smile, “Okay, everyone. Let’s


    not me James. But since we’re here, let’s take a good stroll around the Lakeside Garden. After all,


    this is an opportunity that James gave us, so let’s not waste it!”


    Upon hearing that, everyone once again burst intoughter. That was real mockery right there!


    After that, they continued sightseeing around Lakeside Garden.


    However, James did not trail after the group as he was too ashamed.


    Making their way further into Lakeside Garden, Donald and the rest were full of the joys of springs.


    In a jiffy, the group arrived at the outside of what was said to be the best vi in Lakeside Garden.


    “I heard that this is the most expensive and luxurious house in Lakeside Garden!” Yvette said


    emotionally. She had set foot into Lakeside Garden before.


    One after another, everyone gasped, feeling amazed. The exterior of this house alone was enough to


    instantly knock off the spectacr vibe of all the houses that they had seen.


    Just then, Yvette suddenly said in surprise, “Huh? Dad, look at the woman in the garden. She looks


    familiar, doesn’t she? S-She looks like Sasha.”

    Hearing Yvette’s words, Donald nced in the direction of thedy. He was shocked right away. “It’s


    really her! Why is she here?”


    Yvette’s eyes lit up. “Dad, could it be that she works as a servant here?”
