Agnes looked surprised: "You live here too?"
Kerri answered, "I told you I'm married, this house is our new home. We bought it two years ago but haven't lived in it until recently. I moved here to find a quiet place because of some stuff going on at home."
Agnes just hummed in response and followed Kerri into the house.
Even though they lived in the same community, there was still some distance between the houses.
All the houses in this community were detached houses with gardens. Each house was surrounded by tall trees and had its own driveway. They didn't bother each other, and the privacy was great.
So Agnes, who had been living here for a long time, had hardly ever seen her neighbors.
All these houses were fully booked before they were built.
The developers would contact the homeowners before starting construction and design the houses according to their preferences.
So each house had its own characteristics, there was no uniformity.
Jared's house was designed to be simple and low-key, but Kerri's house was quite luxurious.
Seeing Agnes standing at the door in shock, Kerri explained, "Don't mind it, my husband's a rich kid, he designed this house."
Agnes replied, "I think it's great. Your husband may be a rich kid, but at least he's talented. But Kerri, who did you marry? You never told me."
Agnes was clearly curious.
She knew a bit about the distinguished families in the Capital. Anyone who could afford a house in Maplewood Manor was surely not ordinary.
She might even know them.
Kerri sighed, "Do you want to meet him? He's inside, you'll know once you go in."
Agnes was surprised: "So you're living here with him."
