Hes very capable, Bettie said, feeling a sudden swell of pride.
In high school, he was our class monitor, excelled academically, and managed the class well. Even the troublemakers respected him.
Otherwise, why would she fall in love with him and take the initiative to pursue him?
Oh, I see, Sabrina said, raising her eyebrows.
Bettie met Sabrinas curious gaze and noticed her intrigued expression. Betties cheeks flushed slightly as she replied, I was just mentioning it casually.
Sabrina grinned and teased, Was the villa all it took for Lance to win you over, Bettie
Who wouldnt be swayed by such a generous offer? Its not a small amount of money were talking about here. Its a villa, after all!
Bettie responded with confidence.
Sabrinas expression turned serious as she advised, Bettie, I think it would be wise to consult a Lawyer about your situation. Its important to consider whether Lance has the legal grounds to reclaim the villa in the future. If he cant, then what he has done today could indicate sincerity.
Lance really showed his sincerity. He had gladly emptied his pockets.

Bettie nodded in agreement, acknowledging Sabrinas advice. Youre right. Ill ask right now.
After a few minutes, Bettie leaped up from the couch, exclaiming joyfully, Oh my! I felt like Im soaring. Im rapturous!
Sabrina observed her jubilant display and asked, What did the Lawyer say? Does this mean Lance has no legal claim to the villa in the future? Its all yours now?
Bettie nodded excitedly and rambled, The lawyer confirmed this is considered a pre-marital gift. If we had signed a gift agreement with the intention of marriage, he could have reclaimed the villa. However, we didnt sign any agreement, and our marriage would only be a ceremony without official registration. Lance was aware of our plan for a fake marriage, yet he still gave me the villa, so he cant take it back! The house is officially mine! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Bettie danced around the living room, laughing heartily.
Betties viewpoint transformed. She now found Lances quiet departure in the past more tolerable, recognizing that it might have been crucial for him to amass such wealth and acquire a lavish villa for her.
Wow, Bettie, youve struck it rich! That villa has got to be worth a hundred million. You have to treat me to a meal, right?
Absolutely! Pick any restaurant in Mathias. Its on me. Im rich now!
That night, Bettie and Sabrina splurged on a fancy dinner.
Bettie got carried away, having had too many drinks, which had turned her cheeks cherry-red and her mood sky-high.
On the ride home, Bettie nodded off, diving into dreamland.
Huh? Are we back? Bettie rubbed her eyes, yawning. Sabrina, why arent you moving?
Sabrina chuckled. How can I with you drped over me like an octopus?
Bettie blushed, letting go of Sabrina.
