James Carter inherited a fortune and got a mansion worth tens of millions, but there were already three beautiful female tenants living in it: a policewoman, a teacher, and a mischievous college student. All three beauties are skilled in martial arts and extremely cunning. To defend his dignity as the landlord, James Carter vows to battle these three troublesome beauties to the end...
Chapter 1: The Huge Inheritance
“All of this is mine?”
Wearing a sweat-stained white undershirt, a pair of gray trousers, and a pair of worn-out leather shoes, James Carter looked at a document envelope on the table, swallowed hard, rubbed his messy hair, then widened his eyes and stared at the bespectacled middle-aged lawyer named William Thompson in front of him.
“That’s right. Mr. Wang never married and had no children. Originally, your father was his first legal heir, but your parents have been missing for over five years, so you are his only legal first-in-line heir.” William Thompson nodded, smiling at the young man in his twenties before him. Anyone who suddenly received such a large inheritance would be just as overjoyed as this young man.
“But Mr. Wang, this villa isn’t being given to you unconditionally. The old Mr. Wang set some terms.” William Thompson added.
James Carter was stunned for a moment and asked, “There are conditions? What kind of conditions?”
“The condition is simple: you must earn one hundred million within this year, otherwise you will lose the legal right to inherit this house, and it will be handed over to a charity.”
“What? One... hundred million?” James Carter immediately cried out in shock, especially raising his voice by eight octaves on the word “million.”
“That’s right, that’s what the old Mr. Wang’s will says. You can read it in detail.” William Thompson seemed well prepared for James Carter’s surprise. He calmly pushed up his glasses and handed another document to James Carter.
James Carter immediately took it and read it carefully. It was indeed very detailed, and there was even his uncle’s handwritten signature at the bottom. As for whether the signature was real, he wasn’t sure—after all, he had never even met this uncle before, let alone know if the signature was genuine.
“One hundred million? Didn’t he leave me any startup capital or anything?” James Carter looked up at William Thompson.
William Thompson shook his head and said, “Mr. Wang only left you a card, but there isn’t a single cent in it. One year from today, that is, August 28th, you must have one hundred million deposited in this card.”
“Not even a bit of startup capital? How am I supposed to make a hundred million—rob a bank?” James Carter was practically going crazy.
“The old Mr. Wang devoted his life to charity. Besides depositing one hundred million, you must also donate one hundred million to a charity, or else the villa’s ownership will be taken back as well.” William Thompson produced another document.
James Carter’s face turned green. He glared at William Thompson and gritted his teeth, saying, “Are there any other conditions?”
“There are! But I can only tell you after you complete this goal in a year.”
“What if I don’t make it?”
“Then you get nothing.”
“Damn it!” James Carter cursed, his eyes rolling. No matter what, he at least had the right to live here for a year. Worst case, he’d just move out after a year.
“Mr. Wang, if there are no other questions, please sign here so I can finish my work. I’ve already accepted your uncle’s commission in advance, and the legal fees have already been paid by your uncle.”
“Alright, alright!” James Carter quickly signed his name on the document. Why worry so much now? At least he had a villa to live in for a year.
Chapter 2: Two Hundred Million in a Year? That’s Tough!
“Thank you, Mr. Wang!” The lawyer stood up and shook James Carter’s hand, then added, “By the way, Mr. Wang, I should remind you that although you are the owner of the villa for this year, you do not have the right to sell it.” With a smile, he turned and left.
William Thompson’s words shattered James Carter’s last hope. He was truly on the verge of tears. This uncle, really! If you’re going to give me a villa, just give it to me outright. Why make it so complicated? Two hundred million, and I have to earn it in a year—how is that even possible?
