Even from the moment the villa was auctioned off, Ye Wan knew it was no longer the Ye family's property, yet she thought such an expensive place, with its history of a fatality, wouldn't be taken over so quickly.
She wasn't in Imperial City, but she was constantly keeping an eye on the house's status.
When she called before Christmas, the auction house staff had said the villa hadn't been sold.
And now, the reality was in front of her; the villa had a new owner.
Ye Wan decisively made a phone call.
On the other end, the auction house staff spoke with an apologetic tone, "Miss Ye, I'm really sorry, it's just that, the other party offered such a high price and was so urgent that we didn't have time to inform you."
Ye Wan: ...
"May I ask when the house was sold?"
"At the beginning of the month."
"Would it be possible to give me the new owner's contact information?"
"That... I'm afraid that wouldn't be appropriate."
"Ten thousand."
"Miss Ye, we have rules and regulations."
