I Returned to the Day He Brought His First Love Home Chapter 111: Let’s Go Buy a House in Coronet
"Who are you?" Gregory Winslow lifted his foot, kicked away the person clinging to his thigh, and asked with a frown.
Daisy Winslow cried even more pitifully. "Big Bro, it’s ..."
Gregory Winslow stared at her face for a long ti before he could finally, barely, recognize her.
His face darkened as he questioned her coldly, "What are you doing at my house? Did you co here to bully my Grace?"
Daisy Winslow was a sobbing, snotty ss as she struggled to explain.
Grace Winslow had no intention of letting her speak. She cut straight to the point, "Dad, as soon as she got here, she demanded I marry her three-hundred-pound son. When I refused, she had them try to use force. Luckily, I reacted quickly and struck first. Otherwise, you might not have seen again."
The mont Grace said this, Gregory Winslow exploded with anger. "Is what Grace said true?"
Daisy Winslow’s eyes darted away, and she couldn’t get a word out.
Indeed, that had been her plan.
Everyone knew the Winslow family had co into money.
Grace Winslow was making two to three hundred yuan a month at the factory.
The Winslows’ second son, Brandon Winslow, had started his own business. Although many looked down on entrepreneurs, thinking it was foolish to give up a cushy, stable job for it, the money he was making was real.
As soon as Daisy Winslow heard this news, she imdiately got an idea.
Everyone knew that the Winslow family’s most beloved child was their youngest daughter, Grace Winslow.
She was the apple of their eye.
’The Winslows are so rich now, and Grace herself earns good money. If we could just get in with them, would our family ever have to worry again?’
But who would have thought Grace Winslow was such a shrew? Fierce and completely unreasonable.
Her perfect plan had barely been set in motion, and before she could even act, she’d gotten a beating.
Who could she possibly complain to about this?
She was clearly the one who had lost out, the one who was hurt, yet facing Gregory Winslow’s glare, she still felt guilty.
Seeing Daisy Winslow’s expression, Gregory Winslow knew what she was thinking. With a cold face, he ordered them to leave. "Get out. You’re not welco in our ho. Don’t ever co back, or I’ll break your legs!"
"You’d better understand sothing. Even if I killed your whole family, it would only cost my own life. Are you willing to bet your family’s lives against mine?"
As Gregory Winslow spoke, he unleashed the full force of his murderous aura.
He was, after all, a veteran who had killed on the battlefield. The killing intent radiating from him was no joke.
Most people couldn’t withstand it.
And just like that, Theodore Zane was so scared he wet his pants.
Grace Winslow imdiately jumped back, a look of utter disgust on her face.
Irene Lynch also frowned and shot him a vicious glare.
How could Daisy Winslow dare to delay?
She knew that Gregory Winslow was a man of his word.
He’d always been a reckless man who didn’t give a damn.
Now that he was older, if they touched his precious daughter, he would truly fight them to the death.
All her previous ideas vanished without a trace.
She even regretted it. ’Why did I listen to soone’s instigation and co here to make trouble for Grace?’
"Big Bro, I..."
"Get out!" Before Daisy Winslow could finish her sentence, Gregory Winslow’s roar made her legs feel like jelly, and she felt the sudden urge to pee.
To avoid further embarrassnt, she quickly grabbed her husband and son and beat a hasty retreat.
The unwelco people had left, but the stench of urine remained.
Grace felt it was terribly unlucky, especially during the New Year.
"Dad, Mom, I think we really need to move. Let’s see if anyone is selling a house lately. We should buy a standalone house with a private courtyard, so we don’t have these poor relatives showing up every other day to mooch off us." Grace had already been planning to buy a house and took this opportunity to bring it up.
"Buy a house?" Irene Lynch looked hesitant and instinctively glanced at Gregory Winslow.
Gregory Winslow frowned. "We do need to find a new place. We can still sell this house, probably for a few hundred yuan. Then we can see if we can buy a decent single-story house."
"Dad, Mom, I have ten thousand yuan. We don’t need to settle for less. Let’s buy a nice house. For the college entrance exam, I applied to a university in Coronet. I want you to co with . How about after the New Year, we head to Coronet to take a look? If it works out, buying a house there would be great."
Seeing Gregory Winslow’s expression, Grace directly laid out her plan.
"Aren’t houses in Coronet really expensive? You should keep that money for yourself. If you spend it all on a house, what will you do later?" Irene Lynch instinctively wanted to refuse.
Grace winked at her. "Mom, have you forgotten about our little private stash?"
Irene Lynch was stunned for a mont before she rembered the gold bars.
’If we sold those, they’d probably fetch a lot of money.’
’In that case, buying a house might not be such a big problem after all.’
But she still instinctively wanted to know what Gregory Winslow thought.
"If your mom and I go to Coronet, it won’t be easy to find work. I’m getting old. If I move there, I’d have no choice but to retire." Gregory Winslow thought for a mont and voiced his concerns.
"Dad, Mom, here’s what I was thinking. Isn’t Mom’s pastry-making amazing? People up north have probably never tried anything like it. We could open a pastry shop to sell them. It would be another source of inco."
"That way, you two wouldn’t be idle either."
"Besides, Dad, you must have a lot of old friends in Coronet, right? If you really have nothing to do, you can catch up with them, have tea, and chat. You’ve worked hard your whole life. You deserve a rest." Grace held Irene Lynch’s and Gregory Winslow’s hands, speaking persuasively.
It was obvious from Gregory Winslow’s expression that he was wavering.
"Mr. Osborne is also being transferred. If all goes as planned, he’s probably heading to Coronet too. After all, the opportunities for advancent are better there."
Seeing Gregory Winslow waver, Grace tossed out her biggest piece of bait.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard that Oscar Osborne was also going to Coronet, Gregory Winslow had no more hesitations.
On the second day of the New Year, Nolan Winslow took Lily Callahan and Ryan Winslow to visit Lily’s family. They wouldn’t be back until the fourth day.
Brandon Winslow and Hayley, however, didn’t go anywhere. Following Grace’s advice, Hayley set up a ring toss stall in the park.
It was a bit quiet at first, but custors soon started arriving.
Hayley and Brandon Winslow were busy collecting money, and their two children pitched in to help. The whole family was bustling with activity. They didn’t finally pack up and head ho until the sky was completely dark.
It was exhausting, but the rewards were substantial.
Hayley did the math: for the day, their net profit was a whopping 117.63 yuan!
That was more than she made from her clothing store.
The main reason was that this kind of ga had never appeared in Prospera Town before. People found it novel, and for one yuan, you got twenty rings. Whatever you managed to loop was yours to keep.
Following Grace’s instructions, Hayley had found a few people to act as shills to build up the excitent, coaxing many others to join in.
A lot of items were won. Although they weren’t particularly valuable, the thrill and joy of it were indescribable.
It was like gambling—addictive.
The first thing Hayley did when she got ho was go find Grace Winslow.
