Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Signing for the Villa and the Pagani

Rian Sinclair listened from the sidelines for a while, feeling that this woman was truly a freaking badass—she had been cursing for so long without repeating a single word. And her scolding was well-reasoned and well-founded! What impressive logical thinking!

The person she had contacted to sign the contract had just finished their business, so Rian went over to sign it.

It seemed that karma always caught up with scumbags! She didn’t even need to lift a finger. After signing the contract, Rian drove off.

Flora came out of the sales center with her people, just in time to see Rian driving away in her sports car. She kicked the man in the leg. "Claiming she’s a sugar baby? Do you have any idea how much that car costs? You really are a fucking idiot. Don’t you have a fucking clue what kind of trash you are and what kind of mistress you can afford?"

The man could only endure the scolding in silence. After all, once they divorced, he would be leaving with absolutely nothing.

While still on her way home, Rian received a call.

"Hello, Miss Sinclair. I’m the sales manager at Swiftstream Logistics. The Pagani Zonda HP Barchetta you ordered has arrived in Argent. May I ask where exactly you would like to sign for it?"

Rian thought for a moment. She decided not to have the car delivered to The Solstice, opting instead to keep it at the newly rewarded Red Maple Lake Villa. "Deliver it to Villa No. 1 in the Red Maple Lake Villa District. Having it there in an hour will be fine."

"Understood, Miss Sinclair."

Rian took the house purchase contract back to her bedroom and tossed it casually onto the dressing table. She didn’t plan on moving everything out of this room, as it wasn’t like she was never going to live here again.

Compared to The Solstice, Rian leaned more toward the Red Maple Lake Villa District, which was far from the hustle and bustle of the city center. Choosing to live at the Red Maple Lake Villa was purely for the peace and quiet. Each household was a kilometer apart, the properties were massive, the scenery was beautiful, and the air was fresh.

Although the Red Maple Lake Villas were built within the city, the surroundings were incredibly serene. Many wealthy retirees lived there, and there was a saying that the villas at Red Maple Lake couldn’t be bought even if you had the money.

The residents there were almost all powerful and influential. Furthermore, it seemed many people had their eyes on Villa No. 1, but for some unknown reason, the mysterious owner never intended to sell. Because of the high demand from so many people, Villa No. 1 had reached an astronomical price. It was priced at 1.232 billion yuan.

Everyone in the Red Maple Lake Villa District wanted to know who Villa No. 1 would ultimately be sold to. Rian thought these people would never guess that this villa had been snapped up by a girl in her early twenties.

Besides, the wealthy elites of Argent had reached a rather peaceful status quo; they generally wouldn’t choose to change their residences. Moreover, the villa’s price had been driven so high that many aristocrats felt it wasn’t worth buying just to leave it empty. Therefore, the rest of the elites were merely waiting to see which sucker would actually buy it.

Rian applied a light layer of sunscreen in front of her vanity mirror. There was no need for lipstick because both the shape and natural color of her lips were flawlessly beautiful to the extreme. Grabbing her bag and pocketing her car keys, Rian headed out the door.

She drove her Ferrari out of the gates of The Solstice and onto the road. Along the way, she received a call from the general manager of Xinxing Tech. After setting up a time to meet later, she hung up.

[Host, where would you like to deploy your acquired Omni-Butler?]

Preoccupied with her thoughts, Rian casually replied, "Anywhere."

When she stopped at the entrance of Red Maple Lake, someone knocked on her window before she could even get out. Somewhat puzzled, Rian rolled down the window to see a man in a suit introducing himself. "Hello, Miss. I am your butler. My name is Ethan Sinclair."

Rian hadn’t expected him to be waiting right here. It was... rather sudden.

When the car approached the main gate of the villa district, the security guard didn’t immediately let the unfamiliar vehicle through, but he did jog over politely to inquire.

"Hello, are you a homeowner in the Red Maple Lake Villa District? Which villa, please?"

"Homeowner of Villa No. 1."

Hearing Rian’s voice, the guard was shocked, though he tried his best to hide it. His tone was extremely respectful. "Miss, do you happen to have the purchase contract for Villa No. 1?"

Hearing this, Rian grabbed the contract from the backseat and was about to hand it over, but the guard didn’t take it. Instead, he bowed respectfully. "Miss, there’s no need to show it. The purchase contracts for the Red Maple Lake Villas are custom-made. I will register your vehicle information right away. We can look up the resident details in our system."

Rian hadn’t expected even a house purchase contract to be custom-made. Seeing the boom barrier rise, she was about to drive in, but looking at the surrounding scenery, she felt completely lost.

She immediately reversed the car. The older guard, who was about to head back to his post, watched in bewilderment as the sports car backed up.

That’s right! It was reversing!

Though puzzled, the guard knew that everyone living in the Red Maple Lake Villas was a VIP. He respectfully jogged over and asked, "Miss, do you need any help? Or is there something you’d like to instruct me to do?"

Rian smiled awkwardly. "How do I get to Villa No. 1?" It was her first time here, and she genuinely didn’t know the way!

The guard immediately called out to a younger man in the security booth. "Zhang, come quick! Drive and lead the young lady to Villa No. 1."

The young man immediately responded. He came out of the booth and hopped into a golf cart. The older guard said respectfully, "Miss, just follow the golf cart ahead. If you need anything else, you can call us anytime."

Rian smiled and nodded, then followed Zhang toward Villa No. 1.

Checking her phone, Rian saw that the sports car would arrive in thirty minutes. By this time, she had also reached the villa.

Looking at the estate before her, two words came to mind: Massive! Luxurious! Compared to this, the villas she used to see on TV seemed rather conservative.

The entire villa consisted of five floors above ground plus two underground levels. The first basement was dedicated to leisure and entertainment, while the second basement was a 300-square-meter underground parking garage. The entire estate of Villa No. 1 covered a total area of 1,900 square meters. With five upper floors and two lower floors, it featured an open-air swimming pool, north and south gardens, and a small lake in the backyard.

Overall, Rian was very satisfied. The villa’s actual footprint was 1,039 square meters, while the rest consisted of lush garden vegetation. The backyard also included a miniature golf course and an attached pool.

Rian took a brief look at the master bedroom. She was relatively pleased, though it felt too empty. It seemed she would have to buy things to fill up the bedroom later.

Rian went downstairs just as the delivery driver called. She tossed her car keys to Ethan Sinclair. "You drive."

Ethan Sinclair nodded in agreement. Just as Rian got into the passenger seat, she received another call. "Hello, Miss Sinclair. I’m the sales manager of Swiftstream Logistics. The Pagani Zonda HP Barchetta you ordered has been delivered to your designated location. We are currently at the entrance of the Red Maple Lake Villa District. Please come out and sign for it."

"Alright, give me two or three minutes."

"No problem, Miss Sinclair."

At the entrance of the Red Maple Lake Villa District stood a food delivery driver. Unfortunately, delivery drivers weren’t allowed inside, so he was preparing to leave the takeout with the security guards.

Suddenly hearing the roar of an engine, his attention was instantly drawn, and he looked up.
