MY Masochistic CEO-Chapter 97 manipulative

South City wasn’t bustling, and the rent was indeed on the pricier side. It generally ranged from 2 to 3 grand.

"No, let’s stick with this one. It’s close to the company, convenient for commuting, and has complete living facilities. With you living here, I can rest assured!"

Back in the day, she wouldn’t even blink at a monthly paycheck of 50 grand, much less a measly five grand.

I swiped my card directly and paid a year’s rent, over 50 grand gone just like that.

But winning Lucy’s heart made it all worth it.

The agent happily handed me the keys and left.

"William, thank you!" Lucy said gratefully.

"For what? I’m lending this money to you."

I waved it off, knowing she was strong-willed and didn’t want to make her uncomfortable by offering anything. That would only upset her. "And there will be interest to pay," I added.

"How much do you plan to charge?" She bit her lip.

I stroked my chin. "I think your skills are pretty good, so..."

Her face blushed bright red; she stomped her foot and said, "You jerk, you rogue!"

Although Lucy said so verbally, it was only natural to repay debts and to collect interest.

She came over with a blush on her face....

In doing such things, there could only be zero times and countless times.

Lucy’s feelings towards me were complex.

In fact, even if I took her now, she wouldn’t say anything, but to truly win her heart, that was definitely impossible.

Despite the decline in her family’s fortunes, as a former young lady, she retained her pride.

Good tea needed to be brewed slowly and savored bit by bit. I had to use gentle traps, lure her in, and then let her sink in, never to escape for a lifetime.

Her face was crimson, a mix of shyness and panic. In the last small private room, we all drank. Coupled with dim lighting, everything looked hazy.

But now, in broad daylight, everything was crystal clear.

"You hurry up," Lucy said.

"I’ll try," I replied.

She shook her sore hand and said, "Don’t even think about asking me for help next time!"

I corrected her firmly, "This is the interest; I will collect it once a month in the future."

She gritted her teeth. "You’re slicker than a greased weasel, even more cunning than a cutthroat trader!"

"Don’t you know what kind of person I am by now?" I smirked and placed my hand on her leg.

She trembled slightly and busied herself. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Due to time constraints, I didn’t dare play too recklessly, but the flood came too fiercely. Before I could notify her, she....

Ten minutes later, she removed her makeup, but it still looked good.

Her face blushed even more.

"It’s all because of you, making me..."

I scratched my head and apologized, "My bad, my bad, I’ll make sure to notify you in advance next time."

On the way back, I coaxed her for a long time before she calmed down.

After returning home, we started packing things. I didn’t let her take anything that wasn’t valuable; she took a few sets of clothes for changing, and I would buy new ones for the rest.

I carried Brooke downstairs first, then Dennis. This guy looked thin and weak but surprisingly heavy.

The whole process took only half an hour.

On the way, Dennis kept saying, "Sis, you should have brought my brother-in-law back earlier, so we could have been out of this misery sooner."

Lucy pursed her lips, not saying a word. She had just chewed gum, but still felt a strange taste in her mouth.

"Dennis, say less!" In the passenger seat, Brooke said, "William, I really don’t know how to thank you. You know our family’s situation, yet you are willing to do this. I’ve known many young people for years, and your character is the best!"

I felt a bit embarrassed by her praise. "Brooke, please don’t praise me so much, or I will be proud."

Through the rearview mirror, I saw Lucy unconsciously smiling, truly charming.

Back at the residence, Dennis was excited. "Great, I finally left that damn place." He immediately claimed the largest bedroom.

Lucy wanted to scold him, but I shook my head and stopped her.

"Let him be; these days must have been tough on him."

After moving Brooke to the side room, I excused myself because Lucy needed to insert a catheter for her.

Due to her paralysis, she couldn’t control this aspect.

Then, I went to the supermarket with Lucy to buy some food and essentials.

After all this, it was already five in the afternoon.

I was exhausted.

"How about you rest in my room for a while? I’ll cook," Lucy offered.

"No, I have to go to an elder’s house tonight."

I stood up, saying, "Rest well at home tomorrow, and next Monday, you’ll have to go to the Commercial Bureau to get a license."

"What’s our company called?"

"Just make it up as you go."

With that, I left.

Today was quite liberating, and I felt refreshed.

Indeed, self-indulgence lacked the excitement of having someone else stimulate you.

I found a gift shop and bought some high-end gifts. Then I went to buy some bottles of fine wine and a bunch of carnations, which were for Reese.

I drove to the east of the city, which was a famous affluent area.

The Legendary Mansion was the most upscale villa area in the East City, where the Michaelson Family resided.

Top-notch environment, top-notch security; unauthorized vehicles couldn’t even enter.

I had to call Lillian to get in smoothly.

The buildings here were luxurious, with each square foot costing around two hundred grand, and even the most basic unit was over forty to fifty million.

Living here was truly a great enjoyment.

If one day I could live in such a place, that would be amazing.

I parked the car in front of Villa BB, which was grand and majestic.

With such a large area, at least five hundred square feet, it would take at least a billion to secure this villa.
