Michelle noticed that upon entering the flat, she had neglected to inspect it.
Instead, she stood in front of the large French window, admiring the view of the river.
She kindly reminded Angela, “Miss Lombardo, would you like to take a closer look at the layout of the apartment? If
there’s anything you’re not satisfied with or would like to change, I would be happy to assist you.”
“Oh, of course,” Angela replied, snapping out of her reverie.
Michelle and Angela then took a tour of the entire flat.
With over 200 square meters of space, it boasted four bedrooms, one of which had been transformed into a study.
The apartment also featured a flower hall with a view of the river and a small fitness area equipped with sports
equipment.
The living room, with its floor-to-ceiling windows facing the river, offered stunning views from the comfort of the
sofa.
While the flat might not match Angela’s accustomed level of luxury, being a wealthy second-generation individual, it
still offered a comfortable living space.
The Lombardo family’s flat in the heart of Hong Kong boasted an impressive usable area of over 1,000 square

It was situated on the top floor of the Lombardo family’s skyscraper, making the most of the valuable real estate.
Despite the high cost of commercial real estate in the area, the Lombardo family had reserved the top floor for
their personal use.
In a location where a single workstation could cost tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars per month, the spacious
living room alone was a luxury that was beyond the reach of most people.
The truly wealthy didn’t settle for residential properties developed by real estate developers like Thompsons First
Villas.
They preferred the freedom of owning their own property without any limitations.
While Angela might not have a strong opinion on this particular house, its location, transportation access,
apartment type, and floor level aligned well with her current needs.
After giving the flat a quick once-over, Angela turned to Michelle and said, “Michelle, the decoration and layout of
this house seem quite suitable.
It has a study room and fitness area, which is perfect for me since I live alone and don’t see a need for any
changes.”
Michelle nodded and asked, “What about the furniture? Are you satisfied with it?”
“It’s great,” Angela replied with a slight smile.
“I can pretty much move in with just my bags.”
Then Angela turned to Michelle once more and said, “Michelle, thank you for your hard work.
Could you take me shopping later to buy some household essentials and a change of clothes? I want to move in
tonight.”
Michelle hesitated and asked, “Miss Lombardo, are you sure you want to stay here tonight? We could always go to
Zilian Villa, they have plenty of rooms available.”
Angela shook her head slightly and replied, “My grandfather and grandmother Cole, are getting older, I don’t want
to trouble them.
I’ll stay here tonight and head back to Hong Kong after signing the contract tomorrow.”
Michelle suggested, “Actually, they miss you a lot and would be overjoyed if you went to visit them.”
Angela considered this for a moment before saying, “How about this? I’ll make the final payment, get the keys, buy
some household items, and then go have dinner with my grandparents.
I’ll chat with them after dinner and come back here after they go to bed.

to gaze out the window at the river.
“Okay,” Michelle nodded in agreement.
“I’ll accompany you to buy the necessary items first and then we’ll return after we’ve finished shopping.”
“Thank you, Michelle,” Angela said gratefully.

Meanwhile, Tanaka took out his mobile phone and recorded a video tour of the flat.
He sent it to Nanako Ito, who was packing her bags in Kyoto.
Along with a voice message, Tanaka expressed his regret, “I’m sorry, Miss.
I haven’t been able to find a villa that meets your standards these past few days.”
Nanako Ito took a look around and replied with a smile, “It looks good.
This one will do.
You’ve been working hard these days, haven’t you?”
