Chapter 18 Time for Your Medicine

Tyler Zand was instantly made speechless upon seeing the chubby guy’s behavior.

‘I’m buying mine and you’re buying yours. What has it got to do with you?’

"Sir, let me take you there for further discussion," whispered the real estate agent, Sherlyn Turner to Tyler.

Tyler noticed that Sherlyn was kind or perhaps she was afraid that Tyler would get into an argument with Mr. Zeeyer.

"Ok." Tyler nodded and went with Sherlyn to the miniature scale model display table which was a few meters away.

Sherlyn patiently introduced Tyler to the types of buildings available. Both Leonora Zand and Fred Zand were about to join Tyler.

The lady next to Mr. Zeeyer quipped right at that moment, "Haha, I just noticed she’s Leonora Zand, isn’t she?"

Leonora noticed that lady for the first time and was taken aback. She knew the lady. It was none other than her classmate, Charmaine White.

Charmaine had always been picking on Leonara at school, hence Leonora disliked Charmaine and was not going to respond.

Charmaine knew Leonora was not going to respond and snorted. "Well, well! Leonora, you just ignored me. Did you find a rich boyfriend?"

Charmaine gave Tyler a sideways glance.

"Haha, babe. You must be too joking. Look at that frumpy man. How can he be a ‘rich boyfriend’?" Mr. Zeeyer ridiculed as he pointed at Tyler.

"Oh haha, that's right. The pauper guys these days are too good at courting girls. How dare he come here to look at these properties! Can he even afford to buy any?"

A weird and sinister expression came over Charmaine’s face as she giggled while looking at Tyler and Leonora.

Initially, Leonora was not bothered by Charmaine and Mr. Zeeyer as she knew a long time ago that Charmaine had a relationship with a married man. She heard the married man was quite rich. That man must be Mr. Zeeyer.

However, Leonora could not keep her cool when both of them got more and more sarcastic.

"He’s not what you think. He is my brother," explained Leonora.

"Oh, so he’s your brother? The adopted Son-in-Law?" Charmaine deliberately made her voice loud and clear for fear people in the showroom could have missed the juicy news.

Tyler instantly became the center of attention.

Some prospective buyers who were picking a unit stopped and looked quizzically at Tyler.

"So, he is an adopted Son-in-Law. No wonder he looks so down-and-out."

"He has brought shame to us men… Toyboy. He has a lot of nerve to live!”

"It seems that his father-in-law is quite rich and gave him money to buy a house in Washington. How good it is to be a toyboy..."

Some people were gossiping. Although the conversations were not loud, they could still hear them.

Sherlyn pursed her lips and sympathetically glanced at Tyler as she just knew how pitiful this Big Brother was.

Leonora's heart trembled with anger from seeing her brother being mocked like that and felt very uncomfortable since she had a close relationship with Tyler.

Damn Charmaine! What a stupid woman who blabbered away and embarrassed my brother.

Leonora stared angrily at Charmaine.

Fred was an honest man. He seemed to be rather out of place and uncomfortable at their current circumstances.

On the other hand, Tyler was unperturbed as he had already gotten so used to insults being hurled at him that it no longer bothered him.

He was immune from being laughed at.

"Mr. Zeeyer, Miss White, why don't we take a look at the house you picked yesterday. Let’s not lower yourselves down to the level of these poor people," Liz Whall suggested with a huge smile on her face while trying to flatter Mr. Zeeyer.

Mr. Zeeyer curled his lips and pulled Charmaine into his arms before turning to Liz and said, "No, I’m here today to get a house for my baby and she is upset with these three people. Let's talk another day." Mr. Zeeyer was about to turn around and leave.

Liz became anxious as she was reluctant to let go of the opportunity to make a large commission out of the sale.

"Mr. Zeeyer, will you please stay? If you are frustrated at the sight of these three people, I’ll ask them to leave now!" Liz said as she caught up to stop Mr. Zeeyer from leaving.

"My dear, don't leave. You promised to buy me a house today,” pleaded Charmaine coquettishly as she swung Mr. Zeeyer’s arm, making everyone present had goosebumps all over.

Her pleads worked and Mr. Zeeyer planted a kiss on Charmaine’s cheek with a smile before saying, "Okay, Liz. Quickly get these people out of here."

"Yes, yes. I’ll do it right away." Liz answered repeatedly before walking towards Leonora and Fred.

"Hey, don't just stand around. Get out of here," said an annoyed Liz.

"Why? We are also customers. How can you drive customers away?" Leonora, who had always been well-behaved and gentle, raised her voice furiously.

Tyler did not expect Liz to be so crude and even chased them away.

He stopped looking at the units and stood next to Leonora.

"You want to know why? It’s because you can't afford it and you’re just wasting our time being a nuisance to our customers who genuinely want to buy a house. Don't you know any better?" Liz angrily rebuked with her arms folded in front of her chest.

"How can you despise us, thinking we cannot afford it?" Leonora replied in fury.

"So what if I looked down on you? Leave now! Otherwise, I’ll get the security team to send you out." Liz waved her hand very impatiently and did not even bother looking at Leonora.

"Haha, Leonora, don’t be ignorant. Don’t you have any idea how poor your family is? Hurry up and get lost! The houses here are very expensive and aren’t something you can afford," Charmaine walked over and sarcastically jeered.

Leonora was angry and ashamed. She lowered her head and said nothing. After all, what Charmaine had said was the truth. She was indeed the person with the worst family background in their class.

"Girls shouldn’t be so aggressive."

Tyler took a look at Charmaine with a faint smile on his face, not at all irritated by her.

"It’s none of your business. What an unlucky day today is to have met your poor family!" Charmaine rolled her eyes.

Tyler scratched his head bewildered. He could not help but wondered what they had done to deserve such treatments from Charmaine? Why was she so vexed as if she was going through menopause in advance.

If that was how Leonora was being bullied in front of her family members. It was not hard to imagine what Leonara might be going through in school.

It seemed like Charmaine needed some serious talking down.

He looked at Charmaine with a grin across his face and said, "Do you think you’re rich? You merely have an average and married man as your sugar daddy.”

“Look at him, he’s almost as old as your dad. Apart from looking ugly with a pig-like body, what do you see in him? You are still so young."

Tyler cast a look at the chubby Mr. Zeeyer, shook his head, and sighed while talking.

Mr. Zeeyer was enraged! He roared with his eyes widened, "You poor *ss, how dare you to call me a pig?"

"You useless toyboy! What's wrong with his body or older age if he’s willing to pay for me? The house we are going to buy is more than one million dollars. Do you know how much one million dollars is? Yeah, I'm afraid you won't make a million in your lifetime or the next. Haha!"

Charmaine was getting more and more heated up. She even wrapped herself around Mr. Zeeyer and showed her affections in public.

Mr. Zeeyer was pleased with Charmaine and gave Tyler the eye before proudly saying, "What about that, poor *ss. Isn’t my baby right? You won't make a million in your lifetime or the next. Haha."

Tyler was speechless. Buying a house was a happy occasion, but he had not expected to run into such unreasonable people.

"You are rich aren’t you? If you have a lot of money then buy the villa instead of going for those ordinary houses." Tyler challenged with a smirk.

"..."

Mr. Zeeyer was speechless. The villas cost tens of millions. How could he afford any?

He was already struggling to buy an ordinary house. If not because of Charmaine who kept pushing for it, he would not spend a million dollars.

"Have you got nothing more to say? If you have so much money, do you need to make two trips just to pick a unit? Why don’t you just pay for the most expensive villa and get it done! The most expensive villa here is only 66,000 dollars per square meter. If you can’t afford such an amount of money, what have you got to show off in front of me?" Tyler chided condescendingly.

Mr. Zeeyer’s face turned green. He got so angry that his eyes rolled up. "F*ck, if you can afford it, buy the most expensive one! What are you doing here bullsh*tting?”

"That is! You don't have to buy the 66,000 dollars per square meter units. You can just buy the 20,000 dollars per square meter ones. If you do so, I’ll go with you now!" Charmaine snorted.

Mr. Zeeyer almost vomited blood as he stared at Charmaine with widened eyes.

"Don't be angry, my dear. This bloke can't afford it anyway." Charmaine quickly comforted him.

Tyler looked at Charmaine and sneered, "No thanks. I'm afraid of catching a disease."

"You!"

Charmaine was so angry she wanted to lunge forward and gashed Tyler.

Tyler ignored her and beckoned at Sherlyn.

"Sir, what can I do to help?" Sherlyn asked politely.

She was convinced that Tyler could not afford to buy a house but she still remained polite to Tyler.

"Which is the most expensive villa? I’ll buy it now," Tyler calmly told Sherlyn.

‘What?’

Sherlyn was appalled. She wondered if she had heard wrongly.

Apart from her, everyone present was equally stunned.

They soon came back to their senses as they thought that Tyler was just bragging.

Mr. Zeeyer and Charmaine were laughing so much that their stomachs started to hurt. They thought they had just heard the funniest joke.

"Wow, toyboy. You’ve successfully made me laugh." Mr. Zeeyer sneered.

Charmaine had stitches from laughing too hard. She was feeling happier than when enjoying the new year holidays.

Liz also joined in their laughter as she strode over to Tyler and said, "What a joke! Okay, you can stop and go home now. Go take your medicine as you are obviously sick in the head!"

"If I remember correctly… If you sell a ten million dollars villa, you get a commission of more than a hundred thousand, right?" Tyler asked Liz.

"That's right, but what does that have to do with you?" Liz looked at Tyler derisively.

"Well, you should be earning that commission but you don't seem to want it. I think you should be the one taking that medicine, no?"

Tyler casually said before giving Sherlyn his bank card, "Go and swipe the card. Remember, I want to buy the most expensive villa here."

"Sir, the most expensive villa here is 18,800,000 dollars. I can give you an eight percent discount..." Sherlyn was stunned and took a bit of time for her to come to her senses and started introducing it to Tyler.

"What auspicious set of numbers. You don’t have to give me a discount. You can have the remaining money." Tyler waved his hand as if he was talking about something trivial.

Sherlyn opened her mouth wide in excitement with her heart almost leaping out of her throat from joy.

‘Is he really going to buy it?’

Liz’s heart tightened as she could not even force a smile on her face.
