Lust System: Harem Of Beautiful Women

Chapter 573  Don't Hide! Mom Already Knows

Luis smiled without answering and drove them to the city's real estate transaction center. Bella's capable and experienced secretary, who was actually under forty and very shrewd, was already waiting there.

"Secretary , sorry to keep you waiting!"

Luis greeted her with a cheerful smile, then turned to the puzzled mother and daughter behind him and said, "Take out your ID cards."

They both looked confused, but what was most touching was that as soon as Luis spoke, they both took out their documents without hesitation.

You had to understand that although Maria was new to society, in this environment full of tough cookies, and having been raised by a single mother, she wasn't exactly naive. She might be deceived, but she wasn't that foolish.

Aunt Yana needed no mention; she had lived a harder life than Luis's mother-in-law and was even tougher, with a stronger sense of caution and vigilance than anyone.

But with just a simple word from Luis, they both produced their documents. This kind of natural trust was, at times, even more satisfying than their docility in bed.

This Secretary , who had been dispatched over, was very efficient. She smiled and took the documents to process the paperwork.

Delphi Business Consulting Company was formed to clean up multi-party debts. It could be said that back then, they stopped at nothing to prepare for an IPO, and to shield themselves from some messy businesses, they crammed all the dirty, chaotic, and undesirable things into this company.

It was essentially a garbage disposal site. But once liquidation began, this garbage disposal site wasn't something just anyone could handle.

Leok was genuinely scared this time. As soon as Nina showed up at his door, he cooperated obediently, sorting out the debts and using the two storefronts from the property as assets to repay them.

Hail had considered many factors when he had Luis buy this company. First, it allowed Luis to legally acquire the assets given by the Taiga and Leon families.

Second, if this company fell into the hands of either family, it would undoubtedly become a weapon to attack the other, disrupting the currently smooth liquidation process.

The best solution was for it to fall into a third party's hands, and in Waller's eyes, Luis was undoubtedly the best choice.

If it ended up in Luis's hands, both the Taiga and Leon families would cooperate obediently to quickly resolve these debt issues. With Hail keeping an eye on things, no one would dare play tricks.

If either the Taiga or Leon family obtained the company, they would definitely engage in lengthy bickering and buck-passing, with neither willing to take a loss.

So this was also a quick way to cut the Gordian knot. Luis seemed to be gaining an advantage, but in reality, he was playing a huge role in advancing the liquidation process.

"Miss Maria, please sign here."

"Miss Yana, please take a look at this transfer contract. If there are no issues, please sign here."

Secretary handled the business with practiced ease, exceptionally efficient and acquainted with the people here. She took the mother and daughter through the procedures very effectively.

Luis swiped his card to pay the taxes and fees, and in less than half an hour, it was all done.

This Secretary was an ordinary-looking woman, but she worked very efficiently and was meticulous, truly putting one at ease.

At the entrance, Secretary smiled warmly and shook hands with Luis, saying, "When the certificates are ready, just have the two ladies pay attention to the notification. Normally, the real estate certificates will be issued within ten working days."

"Sorry for the trouble!"

"You're welcome, Mr. Luis. If you need anything, please feel free to call me."

"Okay, let's leave it at that. Let's head back."

As soon as they got in the car, Maria held up the document bag in her hand and asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, what's a real estate certificate?"

Aunt Yana couldn't help but shoot her a glare and said, "It's the property deed."

"What?!" Maria was instantly stunned.

The office space for the first phase of the property managed by Aunt Kiara was two storefronts on the internal road of the community, but they weren't public community land.

Due to some business-related issues, they couldn't be sold. The Taiga and Leon families bickered over it, and then Leok ended up using them. Luis couldn't be bothered to inquire about the specifics.

Anyway, part of the debt had been cleared, and these two commercial properties were taken out to pay off the debt to Delphi Business Consulting Company, which meant to Luis.

Aunt Yana happened to be confronting him at this time, so Luis wasn't stingy and conveniently transferred the two properties into the mother and daughter's names, one each, without favoritism.

Each commercial unit had two floors, each forty square meters. Although located on the community's internal road, there was still significant foot traffic. Renting each out for three to four thousand dollars a month wouldn't be a problem, providing a very decent, stable income for ordinary people.

Maria came to her senses, alarmed and sensible, she said, "No way, brother-in-law. This is such a valuable gift. If Sister Lily finds out, how will you explain it to her?"

Luis chuckled and said, "Just don't tell her. Say your mom saved up the money or borrowed it from relatives to buy it herself."

Maria continued shaking her head, looking at her mother somewhat strangely, and asked, "Mom, why aren't you saying anything?"

Aunt Yana was also somewhat overwhelmed by the gift. After all, her entanglement with Luis was based on genuine affection, not for money or anything like that.

Earlier, when he gave her bags and some jewelry, she was very happy, knowing that the man was now wealthy and successful, and she felt she deserved it.

But now, this was a commercial property. That location, near the back gate of the park, was definitely a prime spot. A rent of four thousand dollars was already the market rate from several years ago.

They were both born and raised here. Even if Maria was a naive student, she knew that while these shops weren't large, each one was worth around a million dollars.

"I also think it's inappropriate." Aunt Yana was a bit flustered; this gift was too extravagant.

Maria asked nervously, "Brother-in-law, why are you suddenly giving us this?"

She was still pretending that her relationship with Luis wasn't close, that they were innocent. Watching her daughter's poor acting, Aunt Yana couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Luis suddenly reached out and, under the astonished gazes of Maria and Aunt Yana, took hold of each of their hands.

Aunt Yana had little reaction, just lowering her head with a blush. She knew the man in front of her intended to tear down the facade, completely exposing their pretense and shame to each other.

Even though they had done even more shameful things together, except for her back passage, which he hadn't had time to take yet.

But being hand-in-hand right in front of her mother made Maria panic instantly. She struggled fiercely, stammering nervously, "Brother-in-law, what... what are you doing?"

Maria was a sensible girl. She knew her brother-in-law was a family man, so she kept her distance in public, only daring to be intimate and date without restraint when they were in the capital where no one knew them.

In their own city, within the community, she wouldn't even hold his hand. Now, right in front of her mother, the young girl was panicking badly.

Luis held on tight, refusing to let go. Seeing Maria look frantically at her mother, then at him, completely at a loss, he had to admit the situation was quite amusing.

"Maria, you don't need to hide it anymore. Your mom already knows about us."

As soon as he said this, Maria was thunderstruck, completely frozen, her mind instantly filled with images of her mother yelling at her.

Luis hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to phrase it gently and appropriately to help her accept it quickly.

But unexpectedly, Aunt Yana, as the mother, was even more direct. She took a deep breath, lifted her head, looked straight at her dumbfounded daughter, and called out, "Maria!"
