Chapter 190
Sunny approached Carlisle and cautiously called out to him.
Carlisle nodded in response. “Show them the property deeds.”
“Okay!” Sunny replied, taking out the documents from the briefcase and handing them to the people from
Evermore Properties.
After the executives cross–checked and confirmed everything was in order, they nodded smilingly.
Yohann took out the prepared contract and said with a smile, “Carlisle, take a look at the contract. If
everything looks good, go ahead and sign it.”
Sunny brought the contract to Carlisle, who carefully reviewed it to ensure there were no traps before
signing it with a pen.
Yohann became even more cheerful after the contract was signed.
“Carlisle, would you like a check, or should we transfer the money to your bank account?” he asked.
Hearing that, Sunny asked in a quiet voice, “Don’t we need to go to the County Recorder’s office for the
transfer?”
“You don’t need to worry about that.” Yohann chuckled. “We can handle it.”
Sunny obediently remained silent after that. As the leading real estate figure in Riverland, Yohann spoke
with authority.
Next, Yohann wrote a check for the agreed amount of 87 million.
“The original price was just over 86.9 million dollars. I rounded it up for you,” he explained as he placed the check on the table and rotated it so it was in front of Carlisle.
Carlisle proceeded to hand the check to Lethan. “Mr. Warbane, could you verify this for me?”
Given the substantial sum involved and the fact that he didn’t entirely trust the situation, caution was
necessary.
Lethan took the check and looked at it a few times before commenting with a sneer, “Although Evermore Properties can be shameless at times, they are relatively reliable when it concerns their reputation.”
Yohann also snorted. “Why didn’t you make a sound when Yuriel was here?”
“I was showing him respect,” Lethan retorted with a frown. “You’re just acting tough because of him
anyway.”
Yohann smirked arrogantly at those words. “I’m lucky because I have what it takes to be arrogant. If you had the ability, you could be arrogant, too.”
The two had known each other for quite some time; they often exchanged banter at other business gatherings as well.

At the same time, Sunny was drooling over the sumptuous dishes on the table. He hadn’t had dinner, after
all.
Seeing this, Carlisle smilingly offered, “Sunny, why don’t you sit down and take a bite?”
“Oh… A–Are you sure that’s okay?”
Sunny glanced at Lethan and Yohann.
One was the chairman of the leading fashion company In Riverland, Islo Clothing. Meanwhile, the other was the president of Evermore Properties, the leading real estate industry player in Riverland.
How could he, with his modest background, sit at the same table with them?
Carlisle frowned slightly at his reaction. “If I tell you to sit, sit!”
Thinking Carlisle was angry, Sunny quickly pulled over a chair and sat down.
Carlisle then leaned over and whispered, “Let them argue. We should have our fill before we head back.”
Upon hearing that, Sunny nodded and mustered up the courage to start eating the food on the table.
Lethan and Yohann argued for about ten minutes. It wasn’t until Yohann answered a phone call that things calmed down.
Yohann raised his glass and took a sip of red wine to quench his thirst. “I don’t have time to argue with you today, but next time, I’ll make sure to shut you up!”
Lethan chuckled. “I’ll be ready whenever you are.”
Carlisle couldn’t help but glance at the two of them a little more.
Did all businessmen communicate in such a straightforward and unadorned manner?
Yohann and his team from Evermore Properties soon departed.
No longer containing the rage within him, Lethan slammed his fist hard on the table.
He was so damn frustrated.
He was supposed to be a representative figure in the Riverland fashion industry. Yet today, he had to watch as people from Evermore Properties bullied his sister.
Sunny, who was cutting the roasted pork, was so startled that he dropped the knife on the table. Unaware of the earlier events, he thought Lethan was angry with him for his lack of manners.
As he stood up timidly, Carlisle pressed him back into his seat.
“Just focus on your meal,” he reassured Sunny. “It’s not about you.”
Lethan then bitterly took a sip of wine, leaned back in his chair, and lamented guiltily, “I’m a terrible older brother. If I had been more cautious, Yuriel wouldn’t have dared to take advantage of my sister!”
