Chapter 2012 Help Your Aunt Out

Patrick thought about it for a while before heaving a long sigh. “Fine! I’ll sell it to you for seven hundred million. However, I need your help. You and Davin will have to come back in the next few days.”

Sheila was overjoyed. “Okay, Dad! I’ll come back with Davin tomorrow and sign the contract for purchasing the manor.” “Okay, I’ll be waiting for you.”

After settling the matter, Sheila shared the great news with Davin eagerly. When he heard that the Muir family owned the manor, he was very surprised.

“What? Did you say that the Southern suburbs manor is your father’s?”

“Yeah! Aren’t you pleasantly surprised?”

“I am surprised, but with regards to whether it’s pleasant or not… It’ll depend on how great the price your dad offered is. Did you ask him how much he’s willing to sell it to us? Is he willing to lend it to us directly?”

“What are you thinking about, Davin? It doesn’t just cost a couple of millions, so it isn’t something that can be lent to you so easily. It’s a manor that cost eight hundred million! Furthermore, my dad is so eager to sell it because the Muir family direly needs money to settle some cash flow problems. If they give it to you for free, what would they use for the cash flows? At a moment like this, my dad’s already doing a huge favor for me by giving you a huge discount. We must not be too greedy!”

Davin knew that too. He was just saying that casually.

“What’s the discount that your dad’s offering? How much is he planning to sell it to us for?”

“My dad said that he can sell it to you for a hundred million less. Are you overjoyed?”

That’ll still be seven hundred million.

Davin calculated the worth of the manor. Actually, eight hundred million was already a very suitable price. Now that it was a hundred million cheaper, it was a very good deal. Looks like Sheila is quite significant to Old Mr. Muir.

“Thank your dad for me.”

“Davin, do you think that a word of thanks is equivalent to a hundred million? How priceless do you think your words are? Follow me to the Muir residence tomorrow and thank him in person!”

“Okay, I’ll listen to you. I’ve arrived at the Imperial Garden already. I’ll try my best to convince Nina to act as the female lead.”

“I’ll wait for your good news.”

Still deep in thought, Davin walked into Imperial Garden. He was not confident about whether Nina would agree to be the female lead. However, he thought that since he was her uncle, she would still show him some courtesy.

When he saw Nina, he first asked her about how the company was doing and whether she was busy.

Nina was curious. It’s so late at night. Why did Uncle Davin suddenly come all the way here? Why is he so concerned about my work?

“I’m fine. I’m not terribly busy. Are you here for something, Uncle Davin?”

“How about Stephen? Is he busy? The cosmetic department is still doing fine, right? No matter how busy he is, he can’t possibly be busier than you.”

Nina laughed. “Uncle Davin, do you need us to do something? Just tell me directly.”

Davin took a sip of tea. “Well, it’s not me, but your aunt. She wants both of you to help her. You know that Wilbur and Maya cannot continue acting as the male and female leads anymore. If someone else acts in their role, the show will be ruined. Hence, the crew thought of asking you to replace Maya, and Stephen to replace Wilbur as the main characters. Do you think that you can help your aunt out?” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Nina secretly compared her and Maya. Although they looked the same, their personalities and demeanor were completely different. Wilbur was even more different from Stephen. If we acted in those roles, can we still convey the same vibes as Maya and Stephen?

When Nina voiced her concern, Davin assured her, “Nina, don’t worry about that. After experiencing some things, people would change their personalities subconsciously. That applies to characters too! The production crew will do some editing and alter the plot as well, so there won’t be any negative impacts. The transition from Wilbur to Stephen will be smooth after the plot has been changed. As long as you’re free and willing to help your aunt, there’s no need to worry about anything else.”
