Fortunately, Cynthia took the key with a quick grab. Otherwise Gray would enter her home again today.
Cynthia looked at the key in her hand and asked: “When did you steal my key?”
Gray leaned against the door, looked at her sincerely, and replied, “Steal your keys?”
These were my keys. Your keys were in your bag.
Try to look for them. Are your keys in your bag?”
Cynthia touched her bag and found her key. looking at the key taken from Gray. Her confidence was weakened but still couldn’t admit it.
“I don’t care how you got this key. You’re breaking into my house without my permission now!
For the sake of our acquaintance, leave the key and go, and I will forgive you this time.”
Cynthia said as if she was the policeman, who kept teaching others what was right…
“This was my house and I am your landlord.
If you don’t believe me, just look at the purchase contract.”
While saying, Gray then took out the purchase contract and gave Cynthia to check.
He snatched back his key and opened the door. “Ladies first,” he said kindly.
Cynthia checked the contract carefully and then had nothing to say, but she remembered clearly the person who she had rented a house from was a woman. Now how could the house become his property?
Before she could figure it out, Gray said, “from today on, I will live here.”
So we were neighbors, and also roommates in a sense. I don’t mind living together in the same bedroom…”
“What did you say? Are you going to live here?
No way, I don’t agree!
Not to mention neighbors, roommates, and cohabiting!”
If you insist on staying here, I will give up the rent!”
Cynthia put the property certificate on the coffee table, behaving like a professional assistant lawyer.
Gray, however, looked indifferent and looked around the apartment.
Sometimes he made a voice of disgust and sighed, “How can you live in such a terrible house?
“There’s only one bathroom and the kitchen’s so small. Two people living here will crash into each other, and there’s not even a pool…”
A terrible house?
Cynthia thought that there was nothing wrong with her apartment. Her house had three rooms and a hall, two skip floors, and fine decoration. Thinking of his identity, she said sarcastically: “You are the boss, who is deemed superior to others and should be respected by everyone.”
And I’m just an ordinary person. Compared with life in Mexico, the living conditions here were much better.
So, my noble boss, you’d better move back to your villa.”
Gray hugged her and whispered softly, “Why don’t you come back as soon as possible since your life there was so tough?”
Come back?
She wanted to come back, but how could she come back as what happened three years ago was still vivid in her mind?
Cynthia pushed him away, and patted her clothes, showing a dislike for the close contact. Then she spoke seriously: “my landlord, I want to terminate my renting contract.”
Terminate?
Since I let you jump into this’ trap ‘, I never thought of letting you escape from it so easily…
No, I want to keep you in this trap forever!
“terminate the contract?
No problem, of course.
But please get the contract damages ready.
Here was the contract, and it said very clearly that if you unilaterally break the contract, it will cost you twenty times as much as the rent!”
Twenty times?
How was that possible?
Cynthia took the contract away, checking it page by page. Unexpectedly in the middle of the penultimate page, she found the article.
Why didn’t she check it out?
“Why, no money to pay the damages?
Don’t you have a friend who was called Isreal?
He is a famous barrister both at home and abroad. The money for him was nothing.”
Gray was deliberately saying so because he sensed Cynthia was trapped in a dilemma. He also just wanted to take tentative measures to figure out their relationship.
But looking at Cynthia, whose face displayed reluctance, Gray seemed to be very happy.
“Okay, since we live together, some rules must be set up.
We should share the housework, and the utility bills”
Cynthia’s words were a token of compromise. Gray was satisfied with the results and didn’t push too hard. Cynthia really formulated a contract to share the housework and split the bills. He signed his name on it without even checking it through.
Cynthia felt the place beside her sink when sleeping at night. She turned her body around to stay alert. At that time, her eyes met those of Gray’s. These two people could feel each other’s breath.
Cynthia was surprised for a while, and before she waited for Gray to open his mouth, she got up and hit him with a pillow, shouting: “You bastard, get out of here!”
Gray, showing helplessness and slight grievance, held the pillow and said, “My room has not been cleaned up and there was nothing in it. You will not be cruel, will you?”
He quietly got up from the bed again. This time Cynthia was not softhearted. She accurately kicked Gray’s vulnerable organ with her leg. Seeing he bent his back due to the unbearable pain, she took the chance to kick him out of the room.
