Chapter 1278


    Sky County was demarcated into five distinct regions, namely the Eastern, Western, Northern,


    Southern, and Central Regions. Each region spread over a vast territory, more than several times the


    size of Springfield City or Seacove City.


    The Southern Region was the one nearest to Springfield City and was where the Scammells lived.


    After traveling by car for seven or eight hours, Leon and the rest finally managed to arrive before it got


    dark out, and checked into a luxurious five–star hotel nearby.


    After a good night’s rest, they went out for a spin around town the next morning, to get a better idea of


    their surroundings while at the same time trying to find a real estate agent to discuss the prospects of


    buying a house here.


    Finally, after visiting countless showrooms and real estate agencies, a beautiful vi on the Southern


    hillside caught Leon’s attention.


    The vi was very big, spanning over a few thousand square feet. However, since the vi was located


    in the hills, it was not priced very high, and Leon managed to buy it for just a little over 14 million


    dors.


    The reason this vi caught his attention was its superb location–it was situated directly behind the hills


    and was close to a stream, and the peaceful scenery was perfect for his alchemy and martial arts


    training.


    After three days, the application paperwork was finalized, and they all moved into the house once Leon


    got his hands on the keys.


    This was a four–story duplex vi that came with two underground basements, a front, and backyard,


    an open–air swimming pool, a garage, and an intricate pagoda in its yard, giving the entire house a


    luxurious look. Not only that but the architecture and furnishing of the house were exquisite, making it


    even morefortable to live in than Dragonbay Vi!


    That afternoon, Leon, Iris, and the rest went out to purchase some furniture and electronics and


    stocked up on some necessities so that their stay would be morefortable.


    It took them an entire afternoon to finish settling into the house, and they finally plopped down on the


    sofa in the living room to rest.


    “I can’t believe I have a house of my own now after spending so many years all by myself!” Leon


    grinned as a surge of warmth spread into his heart.


    The orphanage he grew up in was long taken down due to their struggle to keep up with the ever–rising


    housing prices and intion.


    Ever since he left the orphanage, Leon was pretty on his own without a true ce to call home, and


    even after marrying Marilyn, he never once felt like he truly belonged with the Mansons even after living


    with them for three years.


    Although Albert helped him set up his house back in Springfield City, this was still the first house he


    ever bought with his hard–earned money, and would always bear a significant ce in his heart.


    ‘Well, too bad this house doesn’t have a proper Missus!‘ Leon thought to himself as he nced lovingly


    in Iris’s direction.


    When she felt Leon’s eyes on her, Iris turned to meet his gaze and immediately sensed what he was


    thinking. Her face flushed scarlet, and she quickly turned away to avoid his gaze.


    The truth was, Leon already brought up the idea of getting married to her, even beforeing to Sky


    County, but unfortunately, Iris refused to advance further until the drama between him and Cynthia was


    resolved. Therefore, she had no choice but to dy things a little longer and discuss marriage again in


    the future.


    Although Leon was unhappy by this, he had no choice but to relent.


    All of a sudden, Ruth recalled something and let out a shriek, “Oh no!”Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
