James Carter somewhat dazedly shook hands with this Liam Clark. She was wearing a thin camisole nightdress, revealing her round shoulders and two long, slender, beautiful legs. The faint outline of her figure could be seen through the fabric, and James Carter could even make out the flesh-colored bra on her chest. In a daze, he said, “My name is James Carter. New landlord? What does that mean?”

Chapter 7 Self-Introduction

James Carter’s dumbfounded look made Liam Clark laugh even more brightly. She said, “The three of us are tenants living here, renting Mr. Wang’s house. I heard Mr. Wang passed away, and the house was left to his nephew. You must be his nephew, right? So that makes you our new landlord.”

“Oh... so that’s how it is.” James Carter suddenly understood, but now a sense of superiority welled up inside him. So what if they’re beauties? They’re still his tenants, living in his house. Whether they could stay or not was up to him.

Besides... it seemed like he’d be living with these three beauties from now on. His uncle was really something—not only did he leave him a house, but also three beautiful women.

His sturdy frame straightened involuntarily at this thought. He cleared his throat and said, “Well, let’s get to know each other. My name is James Carter, I’m twenty-five years old, still single, and I don’t even have a girlfriend.”

Liam Clark immediately giggled, blinked her eyes mischievously, and said, “I’m twenty, a sophomore in the engineering department at Pingyang University of Technology. I’m also single and don’t have a boyfriend yet. We could date, you know.”

James Carter instantly gave this Liam Clark a perfect score. Not only was this girl beautiful, but when she spoke, her big, bright eyes blinked playfully, giving the impression of innocence and liveliness, with a touch of mischievous cuteness.

The long-haired beauty with glasses, who had been standing at the door with the other two, walked up to James Carter, smiled slightly, and said, “My name is Grace Bennett, I’m a teacher at Pingyang No. 2 High School.” Her steps were graceful, almost like a catwalk, and she also deserved a perfect score.

After shaking hands with her, James Carter turned his gaze to the third beauty standing at the door.

“Ryan Sullivan, criminal police.” The short-haired beauty glared fiercely at James Carter, squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, then turned and walked into the villa. Her attitude was extremely cold. After being exposed in front of James Carter and having him use the “dragon claw hand” on her, it was clear she now held a grudge against him.

James Carter immediately felt very displeased. After all, he was the landlord, yet this woman treated him like that. So what if she was a beauty? If she annoyed him, he could kick her out. Besides... she hit him pretty hard just now. James Carter moved his body a bit and felt like his bones were about to fall apart.

Liam Clark was already laughing as she said, “Brother Carter, don’t take Sister Sullivan too seriously. That’s just her temper. Besides, you got a big advantage just now. The fact that Sister Sullivan didn’t kill you is already pretty good.”

“Kill me?” James Carter’s eyes widened.

“Yeah, Sister Sullivan is a famous tough cop in the criminal police squad. You peeked under her skirt just now. I’m surprised she didn’t lose her temper.”

“I didn’t do it on purpose, she stepped on me, okay?” James Carter rolled his eyes and said unhappily, “Is she a gangster or a cop? How can she just use violence on people?”

“Hehe, if you think you can beat her, go ahead and try. I’ll support you.” Liam Clark said, clenching her fists and shaking them playfully.

Chapter 8 Three Women, Three Types of Beauty

“Of course, never mind. She’s trained in martial arts.” James Carter weighed his options and decided against challenging Ryan Sullivan one-on-one. This girl was too tough—he definitely wasn’t her match.

“A formal welcome to our new landlord, James Carter. Please come in.” Liam Clark giggled and invited James Carter inside.

With Liam Clark’s persuasion and that sweet “Brother Carter,” James Carter’s anger dissipated. He smiled at Grace Bennett and walked into the villa that had just become his.

The villa’s living room was about a hundred square meters. On the south side was a large floor-to-ceiling window, but the lower part was frosted glass, so you could see out but not in, while the upper part was completely transparent, letting in plenty of sunlight.

In the center were two sets of large fabric sofas, with two coffee tables between them. On the west wall hung a fifty-four-inch LCD TV. Besides these, there wasn’t much else in the living room. The decor was simple, but it gave off a sense of honest dignity.

Seeing James Carter gawking like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, his eyes not knowing where to look, Liam Clark chuckled and said, “Brother Carter, is this your first time here?”

James Carter scratched his messy hair and said sheepishly, “Well... it really is.”

“Then let me show you around.”

Liam Clark was very enthusiastic, leading James Carter on a tour of his own villa. Meanwhile, Ryan Sullivan went upstairs as soon as she came in, and Grace Bennett just smiled at James Carter, then picked up a book and sat on the sofa to read.
