Chapter 12 Everyone's mouth gaped open helplessly, and stared at the poor and shabby man, Roman in front of them. Katherine's expression instantly changed and she immediately gave the Administrator a hard glance. She walked over and asked in a harsh tone, “What the heck are you saying, Mister? Are you claiming he is the owner of the No. 1 Villa? How possible is that? He is a live-in son-in-law, and was married to my friend.” “How can he afford a Mansion worth over 150 million? I don't believe that, you should check the profile thoroughly, there might be a mistake!” Katherine added while staring at Roman with contempt. The Administrator shot a dangerous glance at the lady. She made him look like he was lying. “What do you mean there might be mistakes? I've been working for the company for the past ten years, and there's nothing like that. You should apologize to Mr Cooper for the humiliations!” The Administrator muttered. The Old woman chimed in furiously, “Why should we apolo
CHAPTER THIRTEEN The Old woman's face contorted with rage, “Who are you trying to fool? If you are able to get into the No. 1 Villa, We will get down on our knees and apologize to you!” She was really pissed by Roman’s confidence. Roman sneered, saying, "Are you sure about you? I mean, do you all agree with the woman? You have to get on your knees and apologize to me!” Without any hesitation, everybody nodded their heads in agreement. They really want to know the end of this matter. “Okay then, Let's move to the No. 1 Villa!" He said smugly, and turned to the Administrator, "The matter is about getting solved. You don't have to call the Head Office! I will sort this out myself!” The Administrator nodded his head, and replied. “Once again, I'm sorry about the humiliations you passed through in the hands of your neighbors. They don't really know who you are. I apologize on their behalf, sir!” He bowed his head as he pleaded with him. Roman smiled sheepishly, and looked up at t
CHAPTER FOURTEEN The gate was opened wide enough for the people to troop inside. They were astounded at the sight before them. They never expected the mansion to be this beautiful, their expectations was the building would be like theirs. A moment later, someone shouted in admiration. "There is a swimming pool!" The person gasped, "Oh my God, no wonder it is really expensive!" Meanwhile, Katherine narrowed her brows, and asked unbelievably, “Is that really a swimming pool? I heard most of the houses in the Grand Pavilion don't have a private swimming pool, why is this mansion different?” She muttered in confusion, and had a glance at the swimming pool. Funny enough, it was a real swimming pool. Roman closed the gates and smiled smugly, "Yeah, because it's the expensive building in Grand Pavilion Estate. You expect it to be expensive, and have no difference from the other building. C'mon Katherine, you aren't a dullard, are you?" He continued, "There are two pools in this bui
CHAPTER FIFTEENEveryone had forgotten the reason why they were brought to the expensive mansion in Grand Pavilion Estate. They were carried away with the sight before them and now, they had to continue with the bet. Knowing fully well the gate was opened by Roman, they have no excuse to say! They began to grumble among themselves. On the other hand, Katherine shrugged, and waved her hand dismissively, “Are you really serious about this? Everything is just a fool proof plan. We aren't serious about this!” Roman gave out a deep breath. Katherine had given silly excuses to cancel the bet. The truth was that Katherine had lost hope the moment she found the remote in his hand. She assumed Roman was truly the owner, but what kept baffling her was how Roman could afford to buy the mansion. Roman's face was contorted with rage, and flared up angrily at her, “What do you mean? We all accept to place a bet! Now that I have won, shouldn't you guys get down on your knees, and apologize?”
CHAPTER SIXTEENShocked by how adamant Roman was, the old woman and Katherine gawked at him in horror. He was truly determined to let them go unpunished. Roman shot a piercing glare at the old woman. "You really want to see the house certificate, right? You will see it very soon." he muttered, and with that, he walked into the mansion. The moment Roman had opened the door with his face ID and that of the fingerprint, the people were utterly stunned. Truly , they believed Roman wasn't lying about owning the house. The house was truly his. They sighed in exasperation, and anticipated his return. Katherine, on the other hand, doesn't know what is going on. She never expected Roman to be wealthy all of a sudden. He is a live-in son-in-law, who had leached off his wife's money, and is living a miserable life. After just a day of divorce among the two, Roman had purchased the expensive building in the Estate in a blink of an eye. How possible is that? In her opinion, Roman doesn't dese
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN“You don't have to scream at them." Roman Cooper waved his hands dismissively. “It's fine if they don't want to get down on their knees. I will have to call the cops, and they will be arrested for burglary." The people gasped, and stared at the Roman in shock. “You invited us into your house. How can you call the police on us?"“You have to tell that to the police when they get here! By then, we will realize if I'm telling the truth or not." His voice was really cold, and he didn't spare them a glance. The people were completely stunned as they stared at him. What is going on here? Roman glared coldly at them as he asked, “What is the matter? Shouldn't you be getting down on your knees by now? You really want me to call the police, right?" He flipped out his phone from his pocket, and pretended to make a call. Seeing this, everyone was trembling all over in fear as they finally realized how powerful Roman was. On the other hand, Katherine couldn't bring herself
CHAPTER EIGHTEENThe woman then put her phone away and flashed Roman a smug grin. “Did you hear that? My son will be here very soon! When he get here, I will have you and the Administrator apologize to me on your knees! I will also give you ten folds of the slap you hit her." “I can't wait for him either! I will make sure he lick my shoes when my son gets here." The woman's husband spewed out with a disdainful snort. Katherine, who had found her confidence back, spoke with arrogance. "Do you hear that? I heard the man is working in the Public Relations, you can imagine how powerful he might be.” “You don't have worry that, Kate! I will be waiting here for her son!" He turned his gaze to the salesman. “Mr. Salesman, won't you apologize to me? Are you also waiting for the woman's son?” Roman muttered. The salesman snarled at Roman, "I don't ever believe you are the owner of the mansion. I am going to investigate on this matter. I promise, you are going to beg for mercy by the time
CHAPTER NINETEENAndrew never for once expected Roman to be the one his parents were talking about. About two years ago, he had known Roman as his benefactor. Roman Cooper was the one who had connected him to the Public Relations industry. Making some recognition, and substantial amounts of money is all thanks to Roman. “I'm sorry Mr Cooper! My parents didn't know who you were. If not, why would they disrespect you! I apologize on their behalf!" Andrew uttered while on his knees, pleading profusely. The woman was utterly dumbfounded when she saw Andrew begging on his knees. It was embarrassing and humiliating. A comfortable man that her son is, she never expected this. She was glaring at her son furiously. “What's going on, Andrew? You are embarrassing yourself in front of this worthless being! He should be the one kneeling and begging for mercy, not the other way round!" Even Katherine and the salesman didn't understand what was going on anymore. “What's wrong with you, Andrew
Katherine, who had found her confidence back, spoke with arrogance. "Do you hear that? I heard the man is working in the Public Relations, you can imagine how powerful he might be.” “You don't have worry that, Kate! I will be waiting here for her son!" He turned his gaze to the salesman. “Mr. Salesman, won't you apologize to me? Are you also waiting for the woman's son?” Roman muttered. The salesman snarled at Roman, "I don't ever believe you are the owner of the mansion. I am going to investigate on this matter. I promise, you are going to beg for mercy by the time I found out the truth.” His voice was tinged with fury and rage. He turned to the Administrator, “Can you what he is saying? He wants to know the owner of the No 1 Villa!” He bursted into laughter, and abruptly, his expression changed to that of seriousness. "Why don't you tell him the real owner? Call the Head Office immediately! I want him to be jobless! Get his work terminated from Grand Pavilion Estate.” He
Everyone's mouth gaped open helplessly, and stared at the poor and shabby man, Roman in front of them.

I don't believe that, you should check the profile thoroughly, there might be a mistake!” Katherine added while staring at Roman with contempt. The Administrator shot a dangerous glance at the lady. She made him look like he was lying. “What do you mean there might be mistakes? I've been working for the company for the past ten years, and there's nothing like that.

The Old woman chimed in furiously, “Why should we apologize? We've never done anything wrong. You should be the one apologizing, the security of this estate isn't tight, if not, how could a poor and wretched man enter the Grand Pavilion?” The Old woman's voice was filled with scorn, and rage. Her pale face had turned scarlet. The onlookers began to murmur and support the old woman. Katherine, and the others resented Roman and they have been looking for an opportunity to hand him over to the police. “It is impossible!How can a poor man own the No. 1 Villa? All he's saying is nonsense!” “Can you imagine the rubbish talk? Look at how impoverished and malnourished he look

Angelique Brown was overjoyed. Roman had just accepted her invite, and it's something to be happy about. She muttered excitedly, “Thank you Mr Cooper for accepting my invite. You don't know what this means to me.” Quickly, she brought out his phone and put a call to her assistant about convening a press conference. It hadn't rang twice when the assistant's voice was heard. "Good day, Miss Brown! I saw your call.” “Yess! Lord of Xander had been cured. I decided to convene a press conference, and a business party afterwards. Can you do that?” Angelique Brown muttered. The assistant's voice hinted with surprise, “Really ma'am! Wow, I'm so happy right now! When will the press conference come up?” " Tomorrow will be fine! Yeah, we should do it tomorrow!” Angelique replied while nudging at Roman for his response. Roman also nodded his head in response. After some minutes of discussing about the conference, Angelique ended the call, and turned to Roman with a broad smile on her f
CHAPTER NINETY EIGHT Hearing what Angelique said, Roman felt awkward at the question. He gulped down nervously and glanced at her. He totally understood what she's talking about but he didn't want to talk about it. “Angelique, you shouldn't talking about this! We are going for a party, remember!" He mumbled, trying to divert away from the conversation. A sly smile flashed across her face, she totally understand Roman's words. Yet, she wasn't going to give up. She continued, “Why did you rejected me? Am I not beautiful enough? Is there something I'm doing that you don't like? Roman, please tell me, what's going on?" Roman sighed in exasperation, "Have anyone tell you about not being beautiful? You are, but I can't go into relationships with you!” His masculine voice laced out softly. Angelique spoke out hurriedly, “What is the reason? There must be a reason, Roman! Just tell me and I might find some solution to it." At this moment, Roman was getting antsy, "Don't get m
