Chapter 16:The Landlady's Downfall

"So what are you implying? That i'm getting blind or that I'm a fool?" Jason looked at the Landlady coldly.

"This..."

"We have already verified Mr John's information and even signed an agreement to lease under commission"

At these words, Ms Jayden was no longer as arrogant as before. Still she was very confused.

How on earth did Bright suddenly own 150 houses? There must be a trick to this!

"Mr Maxwell, what would be the consequences If someone breaches the contract?"

Bright suddenly asked Jason.

On hearing this, Ms Jayden turned pale. Remembering her previous words and the fact that she had thrown out Bright's stuff, her fear intensified.

Now, Bright had 150 houses and a great amount of wealth, he was no longer on the same level.

Moreover, he had Jason backing him up. If he decided to settle old scores, she would be doomed!

"Bri... I mean, Mr John, it's all a misunderstanding,my bad..."

"Misunderstanding? Heh!"

Bright let out a cold huff, "Wait for the summons "

Jason was confused, so Bright explained everything in detail. Upon hearing this, Jason slightly furrowed his brows, staring at the Landlady.

"Mr John's contract has not expired yet. The right to use the house still belongs to him"

"Ms Jayden, you have no authority to reclaim the house and your actions now amount to a breach of contract. You need to pay one month's rent as penalty for this!"

"If you refuse to pay, we will be seeing each other in court"

Upon hearing this, Bright couldn't help but burst into laughter. This left Ms Jayden completely dumbfounded.

"Atop all of that, you've destroyed all of my belongings. If you don't compensate me for the full value of my possessions, the court case will only embarass you more"

"You..."

Ms Jayden was flustered at this point. All she wanted was to drive Bright out and rent the house to someone else.

But she never expected such a dramatic turn of events.

Bright, once considered a penniless ghost, had suddenly become a billionaire! How possible!

Hastily, Ms Jayden fell on her knees in front of Bright, begging, "Mr John, I admit my mistakes from before. I implore you to be generous and not bear grudges with someone trivial like me"

"I am willing to pay double, no, ten times as compensation, please I plead for your mercy!"

"Ten times compensation? Do you think I am short of money?"

Bright scoffed.

He wasn't missing any wealth now. Even if he was short of money,he would not accept her compensation.

After all, if he accepted this money, who knows if she might find an opportunity to strike back at him.Then he'd be on the defensive!

As Bright finished speaking.

Indeed! Bright currently owns more than a hundred properties, worth several hundred millions! How could he possibly care about such a trivial compensation?

At this moment, the Landlady fell into despair. Bright felt it was about time and turned to Jason,saying...

"Mr Maxwell, I'll leave this matter to you, handle it however you need to, don't show any favoritism."

Jason nodded and loudly said, "Rest assured Mr John, I'll handle it!"

Having said that, Jason took out his phone to make a call, summoning the patrolling officers.

Under the watchful eyes of the officers, Ms Jayden was penalized and the related responsibilities were pursued.

Once the matter with Bright was settled. Next would be the contractual relationship between Jason and Ms Jayden.

Jason called the family's company lawyer to deal with this matter, confirmed Ms Jayden's compensation and both parties dissolved the full caretaking contract.

With that, the Landlady's face turned despairing and she promptly collapsed onto the ground. It's over, she had thoroughly played herself this time.

By the time all was handled, it was already three in the afternoon.

After receiving compensation, Bright packed up and returned directly to the Bahamas View Villa.

Meanwhile, in the No. 2 Villa across, Kelvin had been keeping an eye on the situation. Upon seeing Bright return, he picked up a bottle of red wine he had prepared in advance and walked towards the number 1 villa.
