Chapter 55
“Get in the car.” Blake opened the car door.
Tubel looked over and saw him in a Bentley.
You When did you buy this stunned, she asked.
He replied, “I didn’t buy it. I went home today. There are plenty in the garage, and I picked one
She was at a loss for words for a second.
Then she said. “You Are you really going back home!”
Somehow, she felt a bit reluctant
Yeah. Will you miss me?” he smiled.
“No, I won’t” She looked away
“I know you don’t want me to leave. Don’t worry, Isabel. You’re my fiancée. I’m going back to annoy certain people and get back what belongs to
to give to you!)
He glanced at her as he drove
“I don’t need it she refused
Yes you do. Why say no to free gifts” he said.
She was rendered speechless again.
After he sent her back home, he was about to leave and said he’d pick her up tomorrow
As Isabel watched him leave, she suddenly felt that maybe he didn’t belong here. He should go back to the business world, where he belonged.
Isabel, where’s Blake!” Hannah came out and asked
“Mom, he wants you to know he’s gone back to the Yates family’s place, Isabel said.
“I see. Well, he’s the Yates family’s heir. It’s just a matter of time before he goes back.” Hannah was visibly disappointed.
She had been with Blake for so long that she had long regarded him as her own child
“Mom, it’s not like he’s not coming back. Cheer up. Isabel comforted her
Hannah looked at her and said. “That’s not what I’m thinking. I’m worried about you
“Now that he’s back, he’s the heir. But you? Will he think you’re not good enough for him! After all, we aren’t rich, and there are so many rich heiresses in Ardenfall
Isabel interrupted, “Mom, stop worrying about
ut this. Let nature take its course. Besides, I never take the engagement seriously anyway.
Hannah sighed and said nothing mo
Blake returned to the Yates family’s place
Back in his previous room, he sighed inwardly, thinking. I’m back in my cage. But this time, I’ll be the owner. I’ll no longer be that bind in the cage, being manipulated
After thinking for a while, he picked up his phone and called Vince. “Vince, I want you to buy the villa in Golden Villa now”
Vince was a bit surprised. “It’s very expensive. I think it’s 300 million dollars.”
“Just go. Blake said firmly.
Of all the villas in Ardenfall, Golden Villa was the only one he had eyes for
Chapter 55
Vince asked, “Is it for Miss Galvez!”
He said, “Yes. After you buy it, put it in her name:
Vince hesitated, “Well… Blake, I know you have vast assets
ssets overseas, Înt you’ve been spending a
galor
Lately
“Money
a problem. Making money is my strong suit. Don’t you know that?” said Blake.
1 do. You’re so good at it. I’m on it, Vince said.
The reason why he had been by Blake’s side for so long was Blake’s talent in business, In his eyes, Blake was a business talent, able to predict market trends with great accuracy. Making money for him was easy–prasy.
Isabel was at home, guiding Roy with her design.
Suddenly, Isabel’s phone buzzed. It was Chris
Seeing this, she said to Roy, Toy, go ahead and see if you can make any changes. I’ll go take this call
Coming outside, she answered the call.
Chris immediately said. “Isabel, someone wants to buy your villa in Gollen Villa”
“No way,” Isabel refused directly.
He said. “But the buyer insists and offered 300 million dollars. Your villa has been vacant for a long time. Besides, it only took you 90 million. dollars to build f1….
His implication was clear. If she sold it now, she’d make a fortune.
“I said no After Isabel finished speaking, she hung up decisively.
She drew the blueprints, designed the villa, and supervised the interior decoration herself. Besides, it was much larger than both the Clyde family’s villa and the Galvez family’s old house.
At first, she wanted to give it to Caius and Rosy as a gift for their 60th birthday. Yet as things turned out, they didn’t deserve it
After she became part of the Galvez family, she wanted Hannah and Samuel to have it. She told them she had bought a place in town and wanted them to move, yet they didn’t want to, saying they didn’t want to use her money and asking her to move in there after she got married.
She didn’t give up, thinking that when they changed their minds, she’d take them to move there. So, she wouldn’t sell the villa no matter what. After all, she wasn’t short of 300 million dollars anyway.
To her surprise, Chris called again an hour later, saying, “Isabel, the buyer won’t give up. He says his boss admires the design, and it’s the only place his boss wants to buy in Ardenfall. They want me to talk to you again.”
Tubel smiled, thinking. Seems that boss has good taste. We’re both into similar styles. But.
“No, she said again.
Chris said, “Well, Kabel, the buyer said his b
choss wanted to buy your villa as a gift for his beloved. It’s really special
“He’s willing to put in 60 million dollars more. He’s terminally ill, and his beloved has been by his side all along, so he wants her to have it after he’s
“He wants to spend his remaining days there with her so that she’ll have memories of them together
“He really loves her, and he can do anything for her… Hubel, it’s so moying. What a pitiful love story.
“You have no idea, but the buyer just wouldn’t leave no matter what. Seems to me he really wants the villa. Why don’t you t thing to do”
think about it? It’s a nice
Isabel didn’t know if the love story was true or not. After pondering for a few minutes, she said, “Tue. Who am I to stop him from throwing his
moncy away!”
She thought, 400 million dollars far exceeds the value of the villa. I’ll just buy another piece of land and design another villa when Dad and Mom cone around

Chapter 35
The next day arrived, and Blake went to see the villa himself.
Vince had completed all the procedures and handed over the property ownership certificate to him.
Blake looked at Isabel’s name on the certificate with satisfaction.
Vince told him the whole process of buying the villa, “The owner didn’t want to sell it at first.
But I’m
smart
enough to come up with a beautiful, sad love story, and then the owner had a change of heart. “Well, I guess it shows that the owner is kind–hearted, or we wouldn’t have been able to buy it no matter what.”
“Come up with? The love between Isabel and I is indeed beautiful, OK? But it has nothing to do with sadness, Blake smiled.
He was filled with anticipation as he looked at the huge villa.
Looking around, Vince said. “You’ve got to admit that the designer is really a genius. The layout of this place is good, and the interior decoration style is so unique.
“Some rich people favor luxurious design, but this villa is filled with the owner’s unique ideas. I think the owner
er must be a person who doesn’t like complexity or exaggeration.
I agree. That’s why I think Isabel will like it,” Blake said.
“Give me a break. You’re always talking about her. Seems you’ve become addicted to her. She really changes s you a lot. Vince commented
“This is called happiness, something you don’t understand, Blake smiled slyly proud of himself. Then he said, “It’s about time. I’m going to pick
her up
Then he drove to the Galvez family’s house.
Seeing Isabel, he said, smiling. “Isabel, I’m back.”
The sight of Isabel filled his heart with joy.
“Blake! I thought you weren’t coming back now that you’re with your family again. Hannah came over and spoke.
“Mrs. Galvez, of course, I will come back. To me, this place is my second home, and you’re like my family, Blake said.
Hannah smiled, “Stop it. We never expect you to repay us. Though you’re the heir of a rich family, we don’t want others to think we want something from you in return. That’s not who we are.”
Blake said, “I know. By the way, where is Mr. Galvez? I have something to tell you.”
“He’s upstairs watching TV. Let’s go upstairs, Hannaly said.
Isabel glanced at Blake. Seeing that he was so high–profile today, she asked curiously, “What’s the matter?”
“You’ll know soon enough,” he smiled.
“You’re keeping us in suspense on purpose,” she complained.
When they got upstairs, Blake told them his purpose here today, “Mr. Galvez,
– Mrs
Galvez, I bought a villa, and I’d like to invite you to move in
