Son-in-law of Fortune

CHAPTER 89

After leaving the train station, Leon got into Stevin's car. It must be said that Stevin's was indeed low-key. Despite her considerable wealth, she only drove a car worth just over 100,000 dollars, and her attire was plain and ordinary.

If outsiders who didn't know her saw her, they would probably think that Stevin was just an ordinary middle-aged woman. Of course, what impressed Leon the most was that despite her

difficult-to-hide wealth and status, Stevin managed to remain inconspicuous and keep it a secret even from Coco.

On the other hand, Coco, who was Leon's cousin, sat in the car with a black face the whole time, which made Leon feel a bit helpless. Soon, the car drove into a residential area. The entire community was well-landscaped and elegantly

designed, and occasionally, one could see a few luxury cars.

However, in Cartel, where land was scarce and

expensive, this could only be considered an ordinary residential

area.

Finally, under Stevin guidance, they

took the elevator upstairs and arrived

at the door of a new house. Stevin

quickly took out the key and opened

the door, saying, "Leon, we're here!"

As soon as the door opened, the

interior was newly decorated and

looked like a three-bedroom

apartment. Leon stood at the door

and looked inside for a few moments,

unable to help but exclaim, "Auntie,

your new house is decorated so

uniquely!" Coco crossed her arms and her

disdain was almost undisguised. "Of course it is. I personally designed it and spent a lot of money on the decoration.

Don't break anything when you go in,

and don't touch anything you're not

supposed to!"

Stevin sternly said, "Shut up! If you

keep being impolite like this, I'll make

you sleep outside tonight!"

"In any case, I have one request: don't

enter my room," Coco's mouth

twitched. No matter how she thought

about it, she couldn't understand why a

poor distant relative like Leon could

just move in so casually. It was simply

outrageous, and the more she thought

about it, the more unhappy she

became.

Leon said, "Dont worry, cousin. I won't

just barge into your room."

"Who's your cousin? Don't try to get

close to me. You'Il be working here, but

don't tell anyone that you know me. I

can't afford to lose face," Coco

snorted and walked into the room.

Caleb was almost infuriated and

had to lower her voice and apologize to Leon,"Leon, don't mind her. She's

always causing trouble for me."

Leon smiled, "It's okay. After all, this is

a special situation, and cousin doesn't

know mne very well. It's normal."

"Don't defend her. I know what kind of

person she is. Come on in and have a

seat!" Caleb didn't hesitate and

quickly invited Leon in.

As he entered the living room, Leon

looked around and saw that although

the house was not large, the space was

well-utilized and neatly arranged,

making it very comfortable.

However, after looking around, he did

not see Luca's figure.

It was obvious that Luca must

be on the other side of the river.

But because Coco was present,

Leon pretended to be clueless and

asked, "Aunt, where is uncle? Why isn't he home so late?"

"Your uncle is working in Jiangbei. He

only comes backa few times a month.

Now that we finally have a new house,

it's a relief," Caleb said with a sigh,

pretending to be sad, and it sounded

very convincing.

Before Leon could continue acting,

Coco walked in from the side hall,

with a hint of pride in her voice, "Leon,

do you know how expensive the

housing prices are in Cartel?"

"Our new house, although not in a

high-end community, costs tens of

thousands of yuan per square meter.

Altogether, it cost several million dollars!"Leon looked surprised, "Ah? So expensive!" Coco pointed her finger and said,

"That's why you can't just come in here

casually. You need to be careful and not

bring any dirty habits from that ghost

place in Cuba. Don't make my

house dirty!"

Leon nodded, "With such an

expensive house, I can't be too casual. After all, cousin spent several million dollars on it!"

"Who said she bought it? She didn't

spend a penny. It was all paid for by me

and your uncle. Don't listen to her

nonsense. She's just talking rubbish,"

said Caleb, not giving an inch of

face.

Leon had a sudden realization, "Oh, I thought it was cousin who made it big

and bought it for you. It turns out that it was the two of you who paid for it!" Coco's face turned red with anger.

"You, you country bumpkin, are you

mocking me?" Coco stomped her

foot in anger.

Leon replied, "Cousin, how could |

dare to mock you? I'm just telling the

truth. You keep talking about millions

of dollars, and I really thought you

didn't care about that kind of money."

"I haven't seen mnuch of the world, so

naturally I thought it was cousin who

bought it. If I said something wrong,

please don't hold it against me."

Hearing this, Coco was almost

driven crazy with anger!

This damn country bumpkin dared to

say such things in front of her, without

even considering whose house they

were in!

Just as Coco was about to

explode, Caleb suddenly raised

her hand to interrupt and said sternly,

"Coco, you work in the personnel

department of the New Forest

Business Association now. Didn't you

say yesterday that the New Forest

Business Association needs to hire

people? Why don't you recommend Leon to give it a try?"

Coco immediately shook her head

repeatedly, "He wants to enter the New

Forest Business Association? Mom, are

you kidding me? Besides, my boyfriend

also works at the New Forest Business

Association. If he finds out that I have

such a poor relative, I'll be so

embarrassed that l'|l die!"

Caleb emphasized, "What poor

relative? We're all family. What's wrong with helping each other out?"

Coco refused adamantly, "No,

absolutely not!"

"Do you know how powerful the New

Forest Business Association is? Is it a

place where someone like him can get

in? And now so many people are

fighting to get in and get a good

position. They are all capable people.

Even if Leon goes for an interview, he

will be eliminated in minutes. Anyway, I

can't afford to lose face because of

him!"

After speaking, Coco turned and

went into the room.

"You..." Stevin was so angry that she

couldn't speak.

Leon patted Stevin hand and said,

"Auntie, l just arrived and there's no

need to rush. Besides, it's a piece of

cake for me to get into the Kealonia

branch. But I'm curious, who is cousin's boyfriend?" Stevin snorted, "He's just a spendthrift. Every time I hear about him, I get angry!"
