Early the following morning, Jared went to his mansion at Dragon Bay with the meat reishi mushroom in hand after informing his parents that he was going out.
At that very moment, Zayne, Maria, and Lydia were arguing with the security guard at the entrance of Dragon Bay.
“Why are you forbidding us from entering? We're here to buy a house! Is this how you treat your clients?” Maria bellowed at the security guard.
She was initially in a good mood when she came to take a look at the houses in Dragon Bay. When the commission was approved, she would have enough for the down payment for a place there. While she couldn't afford a mansion on the hill, she could apply for a loan and purchase one at the foot of the hill.
Unexpectedly, the security guard refused to let them in when they arrived. That had her flipping her lid.
“If you want to buy a house, you can go to the sales gallery next door. Entry is prohibited before you're a property owner,” the security guard replied indifferently.
“How are we to buy a house if we don't go in and view the property?” Maria continued contending.
“If you want to have a viewing, you can have a sales representative bring you in. You can't enter alone. That's our policy here.”
The security guard remained rooted at the entrance, blocking them from entering the neighborhood.
“Forget about it, Maria. Let's go to the sales gallery first and have the sales representative bring us in,” Zayne urged as he tugged at Maria.
Although he was likewise miffed, he didn't dare kick up a fuss there, since they were in Dragon Bay, the best neighborhood in the whole of Horington. All who lived there were big shots, so he dared not make a scene when he was just an insignificant department manager.
Following that, Maria could only shoot the security guard a glare and threaten, “Just you wait! When I've become a property owner here, I'll have the management sack you!”
They then left and went to the sales gallery. Meanwhile, the security guard sneered, “How ridiculous! She really thinks that she's some bigwig!”
Mere moments after they had left, Jared arrived in his car, the second-hand Ford.
When the security guards spotted the car from afar, one of them immediately waved and signaled Jared to stop.
