The King of Belantara City

Baffled

"Ted, when will this project start?" ask mayor.

"I've contacted the contractor and they should have arrived today and started working on the project tomorrow morning" Teddy replied casually.

"Let me call them again" Xia said as he opened his phone and immediately called his contractor.

"Oiya, it looks like I saw a big house at the end of this area that hasn't been dismantled yet" Teddy said.

"Yes, the house is in the owner's residence and before he leaves, he sends a message to the person in charge of the area so that the house is not sold" the mayor replied.

"Huh? Not sold? Wh why? Is the price not appropriate?" ask Teddy for a surprise.

"Come on, but in terms of price only the house has a very high offer, but the territorial manager said that the house was in honor of his late friend who built the house." mayor said.

"Well, do you know who owns the house?" ask Teddy.

Teddy felt that the house did look bigger than the other house that had been demolished, but the house did not look too managed.

"If it's not wrong, the house belongs to the Demonforge Clan" the mayor replied.

"Huh? A clan? Demonforge?" teddy frowned.

"Darling, isn't Mr Rey from this town? Maybe it was hers?" ask Xia.

"Oh, but Rey is from this town. But this is weird" Teddy said.

"You better ask Rey first" Xia said.

"Yes, let me ask you in the morning, after all these days, I haven't had time to call him to give my report" Teddy said, nodding casually.

"Do you know the Demonforge Clan?" the mayor asked.

"She's my friend and business partner, but as far as I know her surname isn't a clan name. So it doesn't seem like I know the person you're referring to" Teddy said.

"Right as well, it's likely just the same coincidence, because there's also a surname instead of a clan name" the mayor said,

"Yes, leave it to the house, and if you have any information about the owner of the house, please tell me. I'll probably rent it while I'm here" Teddy said.

"Sure, I'll find out about the owner, since I'm the new mayor, there might be something I missed. I don't really understand the history of places in JTown. Many have been locked up since the incident" the mayor replied a little disappointed.

"Alright, then, I'll go home first." continued the mayor.

"Good." Teddy nodded.

"Thank you very much for the help, uncle" said Teddy smiling.

"Don't hesitate, I'm not your father's best friend." replied the mayor.

"Yes, once again thank you and heart in the street, uncle" said Teddy.

"Sure, see you Ted."

The mayor got into his car to get back home.

"Honey, let's go back too" Xia said as he gently held Teddy's hand.

Teddy nodded happily.

The two of them returned to the hotel room while chatting casually along the corridor of the hotel.

"Honey, why do I feel so sure that the house belongs to Mr. Rey" Xia said as he looked at Teddy who was walking beside him.

"How sure is Rey's house?" ask Teddy.

"See, but my gut tells me that the house has something to do with Mr. Rey. Honey, why don't you just call her now" Xia said.

"It wouldn't be nice to call him at night, I'm afraid he's disturbed" Teddy replied.

"True, then tomorrow morning you call her and talk about this matter" Xia said.

"Yes." Yeah." Teddy nodded.

They arrived at their room and immediately entered the place.

Meanwhile, Rey has just finished dinner with Xena and her mother.

"Darling, do you want coffee?" ask Xena.

"May, it seems to fit in cold times like this" Rey replied.

"Mom, do you want something to drink?" ask Xena.

"No, I'm sleepy and don't want to bother you both" replied Xena's mother.

"It's okay son, I'm just tired and a little sleepy, so I'm going to go to rest" Xena's mother said.

"I see, then let me take you to the room" Rey said as she stood up and helped Xena's mother to stand up.

"Thank you son. Are you going to stay?" ask Xena's mom.

"No ma'am, tomorrow morning I have to work" Rey replied.

Rey hired Xena's mother to head towards her room,

Meanwhile, Rey's three girls have arrived at the mansion and immediately parked their car in the garage as usual.

While the two Baron guards have lost track of the three girls after being deliberately disturbed by One and Two.

"Honey, we're home." exclaimed Fafa as he walked towards the lounge.

"Well? Where's everybody at?" tanya Yuri looked around.

"Once upon a time, have they gone to sleep?" asked Sabrina in wonder.

"Yes, it seems so." replied Fafa while sitting on the sofa in front of the tv.

"Here you go, maybe Hitomi's sister and Lita's sister are exhausted after a long day of work, so they go to sleep immediately" Sabrina said.

"But where are Rey and brother Xena?" asked Yuri frowning.

"Come." replied Fafa while looking at his groceries.

"Fa, let me see, you bought anything?" tanya Yuri walked towards Fafa.

"I only bought two pairs of these clothes" Fafa replied as he took out his clothes and threw them onto the sofa.

"What about you?" yuri asked Sabrina.

"Huh? I'm just one pair, plus my inner self." replied Sabrina as she sat on the sofa beside Yuri.

"Then you're alone? What did you buy?" ask Fafa to Yuri.

"I just bought the interior just now, I didn't get to see the clothes because you told us to go home immediately" Yuri exclaimed frown.

"Hahaha, what a pity." cried Fafa with a laugh.

"Waaah, it looks like there's something new to shop for" said Hitomi, who had just come to the lounge.

"Huh? Brother Hitomi, I thought you were asleep" said Fafa.

"Yes, I guess so. Where's sister Lita?" tanya Yuri looked around.

"I can't sleep" Hitomi said as she sat on the sofa.

"Lita seems to be in her room." Hitomi replied casually.

"Where's Xena going?" asked Sabrina curiously.

"Xena went home and was escorted by Rey this afternoon" replied Hitomi.

"That's it" Sabrina said casually as she opened her groceries.

"Where's he by her?" ask Hitomi.

"Ah, sorry sis, we did not have time to buy anything, did not brother tell us to go home immediately" replied Fafa.

"So yeah, I guess you guys brought me by after a long shopping spree" replied Hitomi.

"Honey this is the coffee" said Xena after returning from the kitchen and bringing coffee to Rey.

"Thank you, Xena" said Rey to receive the coffee.

"Darling, don't you have an invitation tonight that you have to attend?" xena asked as she recalled that tonight there was an invitation to the auction.

"Yes, it should be, but after discussing with Hitomi, I decided not to attend, because I felt the invitation was just a trap for me" Rey said.

"So then, I understand." replied Xena nodding.

"Honey, I see on the stock exchange there are companies that are quite potential, but finally their shares decreased significantly" said Xena while hugging Rey.

"Hm? What corporation?" ask Rey curiously.

"It looks like an entertainment company." replied Xena gently.
