Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
/ Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot Chapter 1511
Chapter 1511: 376: Disturbing the ground above Tai Sui! _2 Chapter 1511: 376: Disturbing the ground above Tai Sui! _2 “Hmm.” Marcus White nodded, and at that moment, as if he remembered something, he said, “I think there are two more, but they've been rented out.”
These two Siheyuan were specifically reserved for Flora Tiarks and Kent Tiarks.
As their uncle, he had to be fair and impartial, and not favor one over the other.
Eva Webster wanted to laugh, but she held back. She looked at Marcus White and deliberately asked, “So Marcus, where do you live?”
As she said this, Eva Webster paused and teased, “It can't be in a luxurious mansion, can it?”
She wanted to hear what Marcus White would say.
People like him are quite entertaining.
There's no difference between him and a clown who is there for people's amusement.
Sure enough, after hearing these words, Marcus White nodded, “Yes, I am currently living in a mansion.”
Liam Webster looked at Marcus White's face, “Marcus, are you being serious?”
“Do you think I'm joking?” Marcus White retorted.
Indeed, he did not seem joking.
But he also did not seem to be serious.
Which tycoon living in a mansion would drive a lousy car worth less than $100,000?
Liam Webster narrowed his eyes, “So, you were not kidding when you said you owned three luxury cars?”
“When did I say it was a joke?”
Liam Webster swallowed hard, “Then, what car did you come in tonight?”
Marcus White took out his car key, “This one.”
“Isn't this still that beat-up Volkswagen?” Liam Webster said without any hesitation.
After all, it was indeed a beat-up Volkswagen.
“Where's your luxury car?” Liam Webster immediately asked.
Marcus White replied, “At the car rental company.”
Car rental company!
Upon hearing that, Eva Webster burst out laughing.
He was certainly not trying to hide it!
But … considering Marcus White's financial situation, he probably couldn't afford to buy a luxury car. Can he even afford to rent one?
After all, a lot of luxury cars cost around four to five thousand dollars per day.
Especially top-end luxury cars
Liam Webster was now unsure whether Marcus White was joking or serious, He continued, “The last time I treated you in South City, it's your turn to treat me, right?”
“Sure,” Marcus White nodded,” But it's late today. I have a meeting early tomorrow morning. Alternatively, are you free tomorrow during the day?”
“I am free all day tomorrow!” Liam Webster replied.
Marcus White checked his watch, “Then, let's meet up tomorrow. I'll contact you on WhatsApp. I should leave now, it's getting late.”
“Alright.” Liam Webster nodded.
Just as Marcus White was about to leave, as if remembering something, he turned to Liam Webster, “Which hotel are you guys staying at?”
Liam Webster replied, “Eva and I are staying at my aunt's place, located on West Ring Road.”
His aunt's family was not originally from Capital City, but his cousin was quite outstanding. Even though she was still in college, she had an annual income of over a million dollars, and had purchased a property in Capital City.
Eva Webster most admired her cousin.
Surpassing her cousin had become the only pursuit for Eva Webster.
Marcus White nodded slightly, then said, “I'll head back first, we'll be in touch tomorrow.”
“Okay,” Liam Webster saw off Marcus White as he got into his car.
Eva Webster looked at Liam Webster, somewhat speechlessly, “Brother, you didn't actually believe what he said, did you?”
Liam Webster furrowed his brows, “I don't know what to say…”
Then, Liam Webster continued, “Eva, why don't you try to get to understand him better? Who knows, he might be a surreptitious tycoon?”
Even though Liam Webster had studied with Marcus White for four years and lived together for four years, he didn't really understand much about Marcus White.
All he knew was that Marcus White was very stingy.
Even after graduation and all this time, he still hadn't met anyone stingier than Marcus White.
Eva Webster directly laughed, “I think you've gone mad!”
How could someone who can spin a line so convincingly, who can tell a lie without making it seem like he's thinking it up on the spot be an invisible tycoon?
Following his sister's footsteps, Liam Webster said while walking, “Eva, I'm serious. Look at my classmate. He's a graduate from a prestigious university, and he's tall, standing at 1.89 meters. He's handsome too, and even if he isn't from Capital City or isn't a tycoon, you wouldn't lose out by being with him!”
“Can being handsome feed me?” Eva Webster asked back.
Liam Webster continued, “Being handsome can't feed you, but it can influence the gene pool. Besides, even if my classmate isn't a tycoon, he won't be in a bad position. He even pursued a Master's degree at Walton University in Cigacan after graduation. His monthly salary won't be less than thirty to forty thousand dollars.”
Eva Webster looked towards Liam Webster, “Do you think Capital City is like South City? In our place, a monthly salary of thirty to forty thousand dollars is a rare high salary even if you search with a lantern. But this is Capital City! Property here costs above hundred thousand dollars per square meter. Rent in the city center for a simple single room can cost eight to nine thousand dollars. With added living expenses, you'd spend at least fifteen thousand dollars a month. Even with a monthly salary of thirty to forty thousand dollars, he would need to save for eight lifetimes to buy a house in Capital City without a loan!”
