Chapter 62 How Unlucky
Dragon Bay was developed by the Langdon family, the richest family in Nuthana. It was over eighty
acres huge.
The distance from the entrance to the mansion area alone was over three hundred meters.
“Finn, have we not reached the house you bought yet?”
The further Rhiannon walked, the greater her astonishment grew. She was aware that the houses
deeper within Dragon Bay and closer to the sea were more expensive. The cost was nearly one
hundred and fifty thousand or more.
There was no small unit.
Desmond and his wife grew uneasy. “Finny, what kind of house did the Miles family give you?”
They were still far away, but Finnegan could sense his family’s anxiety.
He realized he shouldn’t speak up, or they might stop proceeding any further.
“Mom, Dad, we’ll head to the house later. Let’s walk around the residential area and check out the
environment.”
Desmond and Quiana nodded distractedly. Rhiannon inched closer to Finnegan and asked softly,
“Finn, the Miles family’s house should be a mansion, right?”
Rhiannon had guessed it right.
Finnegan replied in a low voice, “Why do you think it’s a mansion?”
“It’s Mr. Miles we’re talking about!” Rhiannon’s face lit up with admiration. “He’s worth hundreds of
billions. Why would he buy a condominium? You’re being so secretive about it, so I’m guessing it must
be a mansion. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have kept Mom and Dad in suspense.”
“You’re still as quick-witted as ever,” Finnegan remarked with a smile as he flicked Rhiannon’s
forehead.
His words confirmed her speculation. Rhiannon excitedly embraced Finnegan’s arm. “So, my guess
was right! Is it truly a mansion, Finn? How spacious is it? Does it include a swimming pool and other
facilities?”
After giving his parents a quick look and confirming that they weren’t focused on them, Finnegan said
in a hushed tone, “I haven’t visited it myself, so we’ll uncover those details
together later. But for now, let’s keep this from Mom and Dad. Otherwise, they might get too
apprehensive to even step into the mansion area.”
“Okay!”
Under Finnegan’s lead, the family soon arrived at the entrance of the mansion area.
This section was distinct from the rest of the condominium complex and had its own set of security
guards. The residents living outside looked like security guards for those living in the mansion area.
Despite knowing that, the residents still loved the houses here. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Rhiannon’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she gazed at the mansions beyond the fence. “People
often say that the true essence of Dragon Bay lies within these mansions, while the outer residential
area is just borrowing its name. Having witnessed it firsthand, I believe it now!”
Desmond sighed. “I heard that when Dragon Bay was first put up for sale two years ago, least
expensive mansion went for one hundred and fifty million, while the priciest one fetched six hundred
million. The prices should have at least doubled by now.”
“What are you guys doing here?”
Suddenly, Qahira’s sharp and angry voice rang out.
the
Desmond’s and Quiana’s expressions suddenly shifted. They swiftly turned around to find Qahira and
her family nearby.
Quiana panicked immediately. “Raymond, Qahira, what are you guys doing here?”
“If people as destitute as you can afford to be here, then why can’t we?” Qahira’s eyes blazed with
indignation as she clenched her teeth. “We’re here to purchase a home, unlike you, who are here
merely to revel in the ambiance.”
Ximena’s gaze was filled with menace. “How unlucky!”
She was about to get engaged to Yosef and become the wife of a rich man.
However, Finnegan had stirred up a commotion at the engagement celebration. Just yesterday, Yosef’s
family had requested to cancel the engagement, shattering her aspirations. of joining a prestigious
family.
She and Qahira had joined hands to beat Quiana up to vent their anger, but that didn’t dispel
any.
She glared at Finnegan as though she wanted to swallow him whole.
Qahira didn’t hold back and pointed at Finnegan’s nose. “You b*stard. You got lucky yesterday, but you
won’t be able to escape today. Xavier, beat him up!”
Xavier had wanted to beat Finnegan up yesterday but the latter was nowhere to be seen. He
immediately stepped forward and swung his fist at Finnegan. “I’m going to kill you, you jinx!”
No one knew that Qahira would ask Xavier to make a move.
Desmond and Quiana shouted hastily, “Stop it, Xavier!”
They had witnessed Finnegan defeating opponents like Python, so they knew that Xavier stood no
chance against Finnegan and would likely be defeated as well.
Alas, it was too late. Finnegan narrowed his eyes and kicked Xavier forcefully, sending him tumbling to
the ground and wincing in agony. The latter couldn’t even voice his pain.
It took Qahira and the like a while before they regained their composure. “Xavier!”
Quiana patted Finnegan. “What are you doing? Xavier is your cousin!” She stepped forward.
“Raymond, Qahira, well
Slap!
Qahira rose abruptly and slapped her without hesitation. “How dare you goad Finnegan into ruining
Ximena’s wedding and then let him strike Xavier? Your family can’t stand the sight of our family
prospering, huh?”
Rhiannon roared, “Aunt Qahira, it was Xavier who tried to hit Finn first.”
“So what if Xavier was the one who tried to take action first? He didn’t manage to hit Finnegan, did
he?”
Finnegan stepped forward with a frosty stare. He couldn’t bear witnessing Qahira slap Quiana right
before him.
“No, Finny!” Ignoring the pain flaring up her cheek, Quiana reached out to stop him. “Your Aunt Qahira
was just angry. She didn’t mean it. Don’t hurt them.”
Qahira snorted. “You want to hit me too, huh? Come on, give it a try.”
Just then, the salesperson who was showing them the units reprimanded sharply, “What do you think
you’re doing? This is Dragon Bay, developed by the Langdon family, not a marketplace. If you persist in
causing disturbances, we’ll revoke your right to purchase a house here and have someone escort you
out!”
The residences in Dragon Bay were in high demand, leading the salespeople here to adopt an arrogant
attitude, quite unlike salespeople in other places.
Hearing that, Qahira instantly backed down and said in a flattering voice, “Yes, that’s right. This is
Dragon Bay, not somewhere we should cause a fuss. It’s all these poor people’s fault. Otherwise, we
wouldn’t have lost our composure!”
Raymond’s family had paid one hundred thousand in deposit, so the salesperson remained polite to
them.
She gave Finnegan’s family a proud look. “Are you here to buy a house?”
Finnegan glared at Qahira and replied, “No!”
They weren’t here to buy a house. They were moving into this residential area.
The salesperson scowled. “Oh, so you’re here to cause trouble.”
Finnegan furrowed his brows as his eyes landed on the salesperson, who resembled a model in
appearance. “So, if I’m not here to purchase a house, I must be here to cause trouble? Can’t I be here
simply because I want to go home?”
The salesperson’s heart skipped a beat. If Finnegan owned a house here, she wouldn’t dare offend
him.
Qahira approached her and said, “Don’t trust him. We’re relatives, and I know his family well. They
received a few million after their house was demolished, but that’s hardly sufficient for a down payment.
They’re just here for a casual visit. Please have someone escort them out!”
The salesperson nodded, choosing to believe Qahira.
She summoned the security guards and pointed at Finnegan’s family. “These people are not here to
buy a house, and they even hurt my client. Please escort them out.”
Six burly security guards immediately approached Finnegan’s family. Desmond, Quiana, and Rhiannon
panicked at once.
“The nerve of you all to kick them out!”
