Chapter 233
Meanwhile, while Lucy was in Cillian's car, she quickly forgot about the strange albino man. She said happily to Cillian, "I found a guest house we can stay at, Cillian. I've paid a year's rental for it."
Cillian was shocked by Lucy's words. Even though he knew Lucy was trying to rent a place, he did not expect her to find somewhere so quickly. She had even paid the rental in full. Did she pay for him as well? "Did you pay my share too?" Cillian burst out asking while he was thinking about this.
Lucy tilted her head to the side. "I did. You're accompanying me here, after all.”
Cillian's mouth twitched. "How much is the rental? I'll transfer it to you."
He took out his phone while talking about it.
Lucy blinked. She suddenly remembered that she did not ask for Cillian's opinion when she rented the place!
Could there be something about that house he did not like?Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucy began to feel worried about this. "Um... I'm sorry, Cillian. I forgot to discuss this with you. I'll cancel the rent if you don't like the place." Cillian had no idea how to react when he saw Lucy fumble while trying to explain the situation to him.
A smile appeared on his face as he said to Lucy, "It's fine. I'm not saying that I don't like that house. I trust your judgment. It's mainly because you paid my share too. If I didn't ask you about it, you'd probably have forgotten to get the money from me."
Lucy rubbed her nose sheepishly. To be honest, she had always been forgetful since she was in university. Lucy had a bad habit of leaving things behind. Even though this trait of hers was not obvious when she was at work, it was very obvious when it came to her normal life.
Take today, for example. She had forgotten to ask Cillian about his opinion on the rental. Even when it came to recording her spending, she would often forget where she had spent her money. She would also lose her personal belongings and documents. If no one tidied up her room, she would never find her things.
Lucy shook her head to clear her mind. "I paid a year's worth of rent, Cillian. The total is 84,000."
Cillian nodded and turned on his phone to transfer the money back to Lucy.
Lucy felt a little guilty when she saw Cillian's cool reaction.
"Did I pay too much for the rent?"
Cillian looked at her in surprise. "No, you didn't. It's only 84,000 a year. This price is considered cheap in Charleston."
There was a strange look on his face when he said this.
Why would the wife of Leon Corporation's CEO be worried about money? Cillian had no idea what to say about it.
Lucy had no idea what was going
through Cillian's mind and was
relieved. After all, she had rented the
guest house according to her personal preference.
It would be troublesome if Cillian was not happy with it.
At the same time, she made the decision to ask for Cillian's opinion in advance if she needed to buy something both of them needed.
།
They were silent for a while after that. They did not have anything else in common to talk about. Lucy rolled down the window to look at the view outside
Cillian did not mind this and focused on driving. Just as he was turning onto the highway, a low-profile black y car drove by them.
The window was rolled down, and Lucy saw the face of the driver.
