Married at First Sight by Gu Lingfei
“What do you think? Do you want to rent it? If you do, I’ll give you a discount since you’re Zachary’s
sister-in-law. Your rent will be a little cheaper than others, but don’t tell anyone else. If they find out,
they’ll come to me asking for a discount as well. That would be a huge loss.”
Liberty was immensely touched. She had to cross that street every day to and from work, so she knew
very well how much traffic that street held.
Snackbars, restaurants, and even dessert stores over there had a remarkable business.
She had been incredibly envious of those who could rent a shop lot and open a business on that street.
Unexpectedly, those shopfronts belonged to Duncan.
“How much is the monthly rent?”
“All stores in downtown Wiltspoon are much more expensive than other places. Among the stores I
have there, the smallest is about forty square feet, and the larger ones are more than a hundred square
feet. What kind of eatery are you planning to open?”
“A breakfast store.”
“Then you don’t need that big of a space. The price of breakfast isn’t extravagant, so you can just rent
one with a size of forty to fifty square feet. I’ll ask the old couple who are retiring how big their store is.
“You can just pay me eight thousand for the monthly rent, but you have to keep it a secret and don’t tell
anyone. I charge others over ten thousand a month.”
Liberty nodded repeatedly. “I won’t tell anyone, Mr. Duncan, but will it be a great loss for you if you
charge me so little?”
“I’ve earned back the capital I spent to buy those stores long ago. Now, I turn a profit no matter how
much rent I charge, so you don’t have to worry about it. Just do a good job. If you don’t mind, you can
take the initiative to increase your rental payment to me after you’ve earned back your capital.”
He was also a businessman.
It was all about interests.
Liberty smiled. “Okay. When I get my capital back, I’ll pay you as much as you charge the others. I’ll
take your store, Mr. Lewis. I’ll go back and notify my superior about my resignation now.”
“All right. I’ll have someone contact you to sign the contract later.”
Duncan acted decisively. “If you want to stop working before your probation period is over, tell your
manager. She’ll calculate your work attendance and prorate your salary accordingly.”
“Thank you, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty thanked him from the bottom of her heart.
“You’re welcome. I’m only giving you a discount because of your brother-in-law. I’ll patronize your
breakfast store to support you when you’re open for business.”
He heard from Zachary that the Hunt sisters were great cooks.
“I’ll go back and resign now, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty came in with a cold face but went out with a smile.
When she left, Duncan picked up his phone and sent a voice message to Zachary.
“Zachary, your sister-in-law quit. She wants to open a breakfast place. I happen to have a store on
Westring Avenue 2 that can be vacated, so I rented it to her for a lower price.”
Again, it took Zachary a long time to reply.
Only one word came from Zachary.
[Thanks.]
Duncan breathed a sigh of relief. “He didn’t say much, but at least he’s willing to reply to me. I thought
that the iceberg was ignoring me because I messed up.”
He rented out a store in exchange for one word from Zachary, but it enabled him to finally work at ease.
Meanwhile, something was happening in the managing director’s office at Waltham Electronics.
“Hank, what the hell is going on? All the clients you’re responsible for have either canceled their orders
or suspended our
partnerships. Many of them have also complained about receiving goods that had a lot of defects
mixed in. Are you even doing your job?”
Hank was so chastised by his boss that he did not dare to speak.
