Would a poor family be able to raise someone as spoiled as Cheryl?
Benjamin had always been one to observe others quietly.
Lionel and Chonk might not have noticed anything, but Benjamin had long since discovered that God C was actually very spoiled.
During meals, she would never take a second bite of food that tasted even a little overcooked.
And when she ate apples, she would only eat them if they were peeled and cut into small pieces, or she’d rather just not have any… When she first came to the villa, he had thought that Cheryl didn’t like fruits.
It wasn’t until one night when they ordered a fruit platter takeout that he found her munching away like a little hamster. In addition, she only ate the fresh fruits. For example, she didn’t touch the watermelon, which seemed like it had been left out all afternoon.
Later, when Benjamin quietly cut a few apples into small pieces and placed them on the dining table, sure enough, Cheryl dug into them immediately after dinner… She was undeniably a pampered little princess!
Or at the very least, her family doted on her very much.
Benjamin had then thought deeper into it and arrived at the conclusion that Cheryl must come from a rich family.
After all, for them to be able to afford a 1000-square-feet house in San Francisco, they were undoubtedly no ordinary people, alright?!
After all, real estate rates in San Francisco were sky-high… The houses nearby cost about $150 per square foot… Yup, her family was definitely worth at least $1.5 million!
Lionel echoed him. “Yeah, Benjamin is right! Everyone starts somewhere!”
Just as he was about to continue, Cheryl said, “We’re here. You can stop here.”
Lionel subconsciously stepped on the brakes.
But when the car stopped, he looked out to find that they hadn’t left the neighborhood at all.
Confused, he asked, “What’s going on? There isn’t any house here except for Villa No. 9…”
But when he uttered that, his words trailed off in astonishment.
The rest of the team was also stunned.
Zac stared at Villa No. 9, his lips curling up into a near-imperceptible arc.
Oh my, the kiddo’s family is pretty well-off, isn’t it?
A villa in the neighborhood cost more than $7.5 million. On top of that, Villa No. 9 was situated by the lake and was slightly larger than Villa No. 8, so it was worth almost $15 million!
When they first moved in, Lionel had passed by the villa on an evening run once and remarked enviously, “I wonder who the owner of Villa No. 9 is. The scenery here is even better than ours, and it also seems a bit bigger. Damn the rich, why do they get to enjoy life so much?”
But now!
He seemed to have found out who the owners of this villa were.
Zac coughed.
Lionel also swallowed and asked incredulously, “G-God C, sure… surely you don’t mean to say that Villa No. 9 is the ‘house’ you were referring to, right?”
Cheryl nodded. “Yup!”
Yup…
Lionel felt like crying. Come on, no acting cute in the club, alright?! Who would have thought that an adorable girl like her would turn out to be a little money bag in disguise?!
He was this close to shedding tears of envy. He said, “A-are you living here alone, God C? How lonely would it be if you don’t have anyone cooking for you, right? Do you want us to come over and accompany you…?”
As soon as he spoke, though, the door to the villa opened and a full-time butler stepped out. Dressed in a suit, he looked at the car with a smile and quickly walked over. He made Zac step aside and then opened the door for Cheryl.
Only then did Cheryl get out of the car.
Ms. Cheryl, the villa is ready. This way, please.
M… Ms. Cheryl?!
What the heck was this?
Also, the butler looked awfully professional!
The group was stunned.
They had met rich people—for example, Zac—before… Lionel and the others had even visited his home. Only manors like the Stannards’ home would need a butler, come on!
So, was God C’s family as rich as Zac’s?!
Zac was also taken aback—because he recognized the butler.
The housekeeping industry had a ranking of its own, and this particular butler ranked among the top five in the United States. A few years ago, his family had contacted him with the intention to hire him.
Hoover, the butler, had told them that he was already employed by someone else.
Little did he think that it would turn out to be Cheryl’s family!
Just who… exactly was her family?
Even Zac, who was exposed to the wealthy and dignitaries, felt a little lost now.
Smith…
Was Cheryl part of the Smiths from New York?!
But as far as he knew, the Smiths only had one fifteen-year-old girl in the family, and she was currently in her second year of high school. The girl was said to be shy and gentle, and was also renowned for her beauty…
Of course, Cheryl was also a beauty, but she was no “shy and gentle” girl!
While Zac’s imagination was running wild, the butler picked up Cheryl’s suitcase and politely invited Lionel and the others into the villa.
The housekeeper was currently occupied in the kitchen, which was wafting an aromatic smell of something cooking.
Lionel swallowed hard. “God C, I’m so envious that my tears are flowing out from the corners of my mouth. Why does your housekeeper’s cooking smell so good?”
… Wanna stay for lunch, then? asked Cheryl.
No problem!
Lionel walked straight to the dining hall and seated himself at the dining table.
Zac and Benjamin looked around at the interior decor. It was obvious that the decor here was cozier than in the club, and all the little details exhibited low-key luxury.
After the meal, Lionel couldn’t help but secretly look at Cheryl and ask, “Hey, God C. Um, I kinda wanna ask you something, but I don’t know if it’s okay to?”
… Go ahead, replied Cheryl.
Lionel coughed and asked, “What business is your family in, God C?”
Cheryl thought for a while. “Actually, I’m not sure myself.”
The Hunts had businesses in a large number of industries, while her grandaunt was involved with mysterious matters overseas. On top of that, her mom was also an enigmatic one who disappeared for a couple of days or so every month for some inexplicable reason.
In the entire family, her brother, Peter, was the only normal one who went through his education systematically. She had heard that their father intended to hand over the Hunt Corporation to him this year.
Her other brother, Alexander, was also an unfathomable one. Nobody knew what their father was doing with him every day, and she had heard that he was planning to have him inherit something to do with “King” and whatnot…
In any case, Cheryl wasn’t bothered about these things. All she knew was that she was the weakest in the family and that she was so rich that she would never run out of money her whole life!
However, Cheryl’s teammates misunderstood and thought that she was reluctant to reveal anything to outsiders because of her desire to remain low-key, so they didn’t probe further.
After lunch, everyone drove back to Villa No. 8 for afternoon training.
After the training session, Cheryl refused the butler’s offer to pick her up, instead insisting on walking home by herself.
