CHAPTER 2

As soon as the door opened, a hot and seductive woman appeared.

Caleb’s eyes subconsciously swept over the two plump “hemispheres” on her upper body, as well as her graceful slender legs in black stockings.

However, he averted her gaze when Caleb saw the woman’s face.

"Mrs. Hattie, you... Well, it’s really a nice day today! Anything I can do for you?"

Caleb touched his head and asked with some embarrassment and worry.

"Little Caleb, have you think about how to pay the rent?"

Mrs. Hattie spoke, her voice of seduction, and the desire in her fiery eyes were like burning Magma that was going to melt him.

Caleb was startled, thinking that it would be better if she really came to him for the rent...

"Mrs. Hattie, my salary is about to be paid. Could you please give me one more week?"

Caleb took his courage and asked cautiously.

"You have no money?! Caleb, considering that you are a college student, I have already given you half a month's grace! Now you want me to give you an extra week, how can you have the nerve to make such a request? Don't you feel ashamed?”

The hot voice immediately turned cold, like the freezing wind in Siberia, making Caleb feel uneasy.

Seeing that he seemed to be intimidated by her words, she took a step forward and pretended to be gentle.

"Caleb, since you can't pay the rent, how have about the proposal I made last time?"

After saying that, she put her right hand on the door frame next to Caleb’s head, raised his chin with her left hand, and said teasingly with her whole plump body almost pressed against him.

"Be my lover, I know a lot of postures, and I will definitely make you feel so happy and comfortable!"

"The rent will be free from now on. If you satisfy me, I can even send you this apartment after your graduation."

"And I will never get in the way of you and your little girlfriend! How about that?"

It sounded really good, which was considered as one of the shortcuts for contemporary young man to achieve their dreams.

But, he refused!

The previous disagreement was because he couldn't betray his girlfriend while the present rejection was because he couldn't be the kind of person he hated most!

If he accepted it, what was the difference between him and Tracy who was in heat under the 'Goblin' crotch?

"Mrs. Hattie, I swear, I will pay the rent tomorrow! If I break my promise, I will move out."

Caleb smiled awkwardly and tried to plead again.

"Huh, stupid! You don't even accept such a generous offer! Since you have no money and dislike me, you should start moving out now. Get out of my house immediately!"

Mrs. Hattie sneered and said in a cold tone.

"......"

Caleb stood there blankly, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Almost all of his savings were spent on Tracy, leaving him with a lot of debt and nothing in his bank account...

Aha! His bank account! Five million dollars had just transferred into his account! He can pay the rent!

But he wasn't sure where the five million dollars came from, and it would be even worse if he got into any financial trouble.

Therefore, Caleb was in a bit of a dilemma at that time.

Seeing his expression changing, but still taking no action, Mrs. Hattie finally felt very impatient.

"Get out of here!"

She shouted at the top of her voice, so loud that the entire apartment building could hear her.

Squeak——

At this moment, the door of the next room was pushed open.

A beautiful girl in pink pajamas walked out of the room sleepily, then curled her lips and muttered unhappily.

"Do you know that your noisy voice disturbs my sleep? I will complain to the apartment manager about you!"

"Sorry, lady, I am his landlord, but he does not pay my rent, and I am also the victim." Mrs. Hattie explained.

Hearing this, the girl glanced at Caleb, and then asked her softly, "How much does he owe you?"

"Rent for two months, a thousand dollars!" Mrs. Hattie said with impatience.

"He only owes you a thousand dollars and why are you making things so difficult for him? Can't you be considerate of his difficulties?"

The pretty girl seemed to have thought of something and was a little angry.

"Just wait for me, I'll pay his rent!"

Then she walked quickly back to her room in her slippers.

After a while, she walked up to Mrs. Hattie again and handed her ten 'Benjamins'.

"Okay, his debts to you are cleared! Stop interrupting my dream by yelling!"

"Certainly..."

Mrs. Hattie responded awkwardly, and then stared at Caleb with a cold gaze.

"Caleb, you're so lucky, but you can't rely on another woman to pay your rent forever! Next time you refuse my offer, no matter who helps you, you're going to get out of my house!"

"I will pay it punctually next time!" Caleb promised loudly.

Mrs. Hattie gave him a hard look, then turned and left.

Caleb looked at the pretty girl gratefully. Although he had lived here for more than two years, it was the first time for him to observe this beautiful and kind-hearted neighbor so closely.

With her messy wavy hair, delicate facial features, and smooth skin, she looked like a superstar.

"Thank you, I will return the..."

Before Caleb could finish her sentence, she walked directly into the house and closed the door.

"Money to you..."

He stood there awkwardly.

Maybe the thousand dollars was nothing to her and she regarded it as charity, but to Caleb, she undoubtedly helped him in his most difficult time.

He had to think carefully about how to make money quickly and repay her kindness.

Ding——

At this moment, Caleb's cell phone rang again, from an unknown number!

Having frowned, he got through and asked.

"Hello, who is that?"

"Mr. King, have you received the five million dollars?" An old man's serious voice sounded on the other end of the phone call.

"That money came from you? Did you make a wrong transfer?" Caleb was stunned for a moment and asked anxiously.

"I did make the transfer, and it was correct! It should have belonged to you!" the old man laughed and said.

"But why? Why did you do this?" Caleb couldn't help but ask.

"Because I called you from a dozen different numbers before, but you blocked me as a liar. So, this time I can only transfer you five million dollars to prove that I am not deceiving you."

"Hahaha...it turns out those calls were all made by you, what an unlucky mistake!" Caleb smiled with embarrassment.

He wished he could give himself a slap in the face, because he had almost refused the wealth that poured out from the sky.

What a stupid act! He actually regarded the Lord Wealth as a scammer and rejected him ten times!

If he really missed out on the fortune because of his stupidity, he should cover his head and hang himself from a gallows.

After calming down his inner excitement, Caleb asked with a trembling tone.

"So...the large inheritance you mentioned before...is it true?"

"Of course! The issue of the inheritance is a bit complicated. If you are free now, you can come to me on the 49th floor of the Knight Group and I will explain it to you face to face!" the old man said slowly.

"By the way, my name is Jack Nat!"

Caleb's eyes suddenly widened and he was extremely shocked.

Knight Group! Jack Nat! The largest company and the most famous entrepreneur in Los Santiago!

Without any hesitation, Caleb replied firmly.

"I'll pay a visit to you now!"
