Chapter 362 The Rich Guys Are in Trouble
"Is it just because the rent is cheap?"
"What else could it be? Moving in there is bound to be a regret!"
"Not necessarily, it's been so many years since that happened."
Under the tree, the elderly were gossiping in hushed tones.
Just as they mentioned Adeline, she appeared.
Adeline came carrying a bunch of bags filled with candy, fruit, and some supplements.
"Hello, we just moved in. My name is Adeline, and this is my brother, Robert."
Robert was dressed brightly today, and for convenience, he wore a baseball cap. He nodded politely.
The elderly loved children, especially since Robert looked so adorable.
In an instant, the relationship warmed up considerably.
"You even brought gifts." One person said, but couldn't help but look at Adeline with newfound respect.
This young person was indeed generous and unpretentious.
The gifts didn't matter; it was her way of speaking and acting that made her likable.
"Is that your grandmother busy in the yard?" Marlowe Grey asked.
Adeline nodded and smiled, "My grandmother is a healer. She's cooking in the yard. In three days, everyone is welcome to come over for a meal."
"Your grandmother is a healer!" Marlowe laughed heartily, "I just said she looked proper and worth befriending."
"Yes, worth befriending. Look at the things Adeline brought us; they're all good for our health."
Good-hearted elderly people were the softest at heart.
Especially the elderly living in the alley of Zelphoria.
Seeing Adeline like this, they didn't hold back and advised her, "Adeline, that house of yours is really not good. You should get a refund on the rent."
"Refund the rent?" Adeline had already been seated, and Marlowe handed her a handful of peanuts, "But I didn't rent the house; I bought it."
Suddenly, there was silence.
Jonathan Morris sighed deeply, "You bought it? Courtyard houses aren't cheap these days."
"The owner had been trying to sell it for years, and the full price was only one-tenth of the market value." Adeline ate a piece of orange that Robert had peeled for her.
Robert was having the time of his life here.
Everyone was giving him food.
Marlowe was a bit exasperated, "You seem smart, so why would you dare to buy it for just one-tenth of the price?"
Adeline laughed, "Because it was cheap."
The elderly shook their heads, "Silly girl, hasn't anyone told you that being greedy for small gains can lead to big losses?"
"That house had something happen before. If you really want to live there, you should get someone to cleanse it."
"Reselling it is impossible. All the real estate agents around here know that house is hard to sell."
"Adeline, don't dismiss this. Sometimes there's a bit of the supernatural involved."
Adeline laughed, "I believe it. To be honest, Robert studies this stuff."
Robert suddenly looked up, a bit confused. He studied this?
The elderly were even more surprised, "Really?"
Adeline calmly said, "Robert is different from ordinary people. He was taken as a student by a teacher."
This time, the elderly looked at Robert differently, "Did Robert really learn it?"
Adeline thought for a moment, "More or less."
"That's really something!"
This successfully diverted the elderly's attention.
Adeline wouldn't be affected by this.
No matter how haunted the house was, it couldn't be worse than Robert.
The one affected would be Ronan.
