NovelAppSince the residents of Ocean Hill were of privilege and wealth, it was not the security guards’ place to
give their two cents.
Nevertheless, Stephanie’s bossy attitude did not sit well with the security guards. They replied, “Ma’am,
not only do they own a property in Ocean Hill, but they’re also residents of the most expensive hillside
villa!”
“What? The hillside villa?”
Stephanie’s face turned flushed.
Yulia was not just a resident of Ocean Hill, but she was also the owner of the hillside villa.
The property was worth 130 million dollars!
It was the dream house of every woman in Cloudtopia!
That was… impossible!
“You’re lying! The bum must have given you a little something to make up a story!
“It’s not like the country bumpkins can afford the hillside villa.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGiving the security guards the stink eye, Stephanie bitterly said.
She found it hard to believe that Yulia was the owner of the hillside villa.
The two security guards were speechless. “It’s the truth, ma’am.
“It’s out of our hands if you choose not to believe us.”
“No way…”
Stephanie was about to throw a fit when the man beside her stopped her.
“Darling, you’re a woman of stature now. No point obsessing over these two watchdogs.
“Let them brag. Their lies are bound to blow up in their faces.”
The man took a fleeting look at Skylar and Yulia before uttering in disdain.
Pulling herself together, Stephanie quickly remarked in delight, “You’re right, honey. I should speak with
these people. It’s beneath me.”
Just then, Stephanie and her boyfriend caught a glimpse of a grandparent-and-grandchild combo in the
compound heading their way.
They were Old Mr. Shepard and his granddaughter, Judy!
The moment the pair was identified, Stephanie and her boyfriend saw their chance and approached the
duo.
“Old Mr. Shepard, Ms. Shepard, I see you’re out for a stroll too.”
Stephanie’s boyfriend sucked up.
Old Mr. Shepard was the head of the top household in Cloudtopia. He was also the most distinguished
resident of the exclusive Ocean Hill.
The old man was joined by his favorite granddaughter. Stephanie and her boyfriend were charmed by
their mere presence.
Success was just before their eyes if they could cozy up to Old Mr. Shepard.
“Yes.”
Old Mr. Shepard faintly responded.
Well, this was a common occurrence for Old Mr. Shepard as there were always people out to lick his
boots.
Suddenly, Judy cried out, “Grandpa, I saw Mr. Stone!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe whisked away in the direction Skylar and Yulia took off to.
With his eyes lighting up, Old Mr. Shepard ditched Stephanie and her boyfriend and trailed behind
Judy.
“Mr. Stone, are you moving back here?”
Catching up to Skylar, Judy ecstatically asked.
Old Mr. Shepard criticized, “Don’t be rude, Judy. Say hello to Mr. Stone.”
He then put his hand to his chest and lowered his head ever so slightly. “Hello, Mr. Stone.”
Sh*t!
Stephanie and her boyfriend were mind-blown.
The Mr. Stone referred to by Old Mr. Shepard and Judy turned out to be the moocher standing next to
Yulia.
It was the most ridiculous thing ever!
Maybe Old Mr. Shepard and Judy confused him for someone else.
Stephanie ran a lot of scenarios in her mind, refusing to believe that the man with Yulia was more
respected than Old Mr. Shepard.
The two security guards, who took the abuse from her just now, mocked Stephanie, “Ma’am, are you
going to suspect that Old Mr. Shepard got a little something from the guy to deceive you?”
