"It's only because you, Mr. Hawke, have such a big reputation that Warner Company didn't even need to do any background checks before sending you to see the house."
Hawke immediately recognized the term – scarcity marketing, right?
It seems that Warnerdot's tricks are quite clever.
Knowing that the scarcity marketing strategy creates an atmosphere of rarity, it might actually attract even more super-rich individuals.
Of course, better management and better service make people feel more at ease, which is also true. If there were a lot of black people here, Hawke would definitely not dare to let Cheon Song-yi stay here.

"Okay, I'll take this house."
Hawke readily agreed:
"However, there are still some minor details in this house that need to be repaired and modified."
“Yes, Mr. Hawke, please go ahead.”
Edward Binns immediately took out his notebook and began to take notes.
He's used to it. If a client doesn't find fault, is he still a client?
Hawke suggested some modifications, since it was bought for a girl like Cheon Song-yi, not for himself, so it was better to be as meticulous as possible and to make the design more feminine.
Next, Hawke paid the deposit and received the keys ahead of schedule.
..... ... ....
“Young Master Hawke, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now.”
After signing the contract at a nearby coffee shop, Edward Binns and his lawyer prepared to leave.
"Go!"
Hawke nodded.
"As expected of someone from a prominent family, they're so generous. They looked at it for less than half an hour and immediately swiped their card to buy it—1500 million US dollars!"
Edward Binns exclaimed:
"They're so rich."
"And Christy, did you notice?" Edward Binns chuckled and said, "This house is clearly not for this young master to live in; it was probably bought for some woman, wasn't it?"
"How can you be so gossipy, a grown man like him? What business is it of yours how many women someone has? If these rumors get back to them, what will you do then?" Christy Durrington gave him an annoyed look and said, "Just focus on your own business!"
Edward Binns looked embarrassed.
"Okay. Christy, I need to go to the company. What about you? Want to come with me, or..."
"I'm meeting up with my best friend to go to a spa, so I won't be going with you."
Christy Durrington refused without hesitation.
then.
After Edward Binns left, Christy Durrington returned to the coffee shop.
198. Madam, you wouldn't want your husband's company to go bankrupt, would you?
"I knew you would come back."
Hawke was still drinking his steaming coffee, smiling as he looked at Christy Durrington.
Christy Durrington gave a soft snort, saying with a hint of resentment:
"You've been harassing me constantly when he can't see you. Do you think I can't guess what you mean?"
Well, Christy Durrington didn't say much on the way to see the house, not because she was reserved or aloof, but simply because Hawke made her too nervous.
“Then you can pretend you can’t guess,” Hawke laughed. “Look at your husband, he’s obviously a master at playing dumb.”
“You are the young master of the Ryan family, how could I dare to deceive you?” Christy Durrington said, “What if you use any underhanded tactics to suppress my husband?”
Hawke chuckled mischievously, "Heh heh, it seems Mrs. Christy, you don't want your husband's company to go bankrupt either, do you?"
Christy Durrington: "..."
Next, Hawke took Christy Durrington to the house that Edward Binns had just sold to him.
……
Two hours later, Hawke came down from the building.
Nothing major happened.
He simply helped Edward Binns cultivate the abandoned farmland on his property.
This is voluntary work, and I will not accept any payment.
Hawker's Maybach sped along the road, with Christy Durrington, wearing sunglasses, sitting in the passenger seat.
Edward asked, "Which woman are you planning to give this house to?"
“Yes,” Hawke nodded, “It’s a gift for one of my favorite celebrities; he’s done a great job.”
Christy Durrington pursed her lips: "That must be pretty, right?"
"What, are you jealous?" Hawke chuckled and said, "How about I give you a property too?"
"You're so generous?"
Christy Durrington looked at Hawke with surprise.
“I’ve always been very generous, okay?” Hawke shrugged and said, “I’m willing to give you hundreds of millions, let alone a mere property.”
Christy Durrington: "..."
"Are there any conditions?"
"That's clever," Hawke praised. "For the next ten years, you'll be available whenever I call, and the house will automatically be transferred to your name. How about that?"
Despite being 39 years old, Christy Durrington is remarkably well-preserved and has at least several more years to look her best.
Hawke has seen her at least when she was 48, wearing hot pants, a tight top, and sexy red high heels in an advertisement shoot, and she looked stunning.
Well, perhaps it's because Christy Durrington is also known as a fitness fanatic, maintaining a regular workout routine even at 50, that Hawke could see her six-pack abs back then, and she still possessed a vitality that could arouse men.
"Ten years?" Christy Durrington looked at Hawke in surprise. "You really have a lot of faith in me. Aren't you afraid I'll end up like some people, with my face all messed up?"
"Not afraid."
Hawke was full of confidence.
Indeed, there are many European and American women whose appearance deteriorates very quickly, making them look like zombies, which is quite frightening.
But since he had seen Christy Durrington's future in advance, Hawke was no longer afraid.
Besides, this is the Marvel Universe, and a fused universe at that, so there's no shortage of miracle drugs that can slow down aging or even reverse it. He has dragon bones in his possession, and if all else fails, he can just go to the distillery and ask for some shrinking potions.
"If you have so much confidence in me, then I have even more confidence in myself."
Christy Durrington proudly accepted Hawke's challenge.
Actually... it's not that Hawke has absolute faith in Christy Durrington. Even if her looks deteriorate in a few years due to the butterfly effect, Hawke thinks that he could become the godfather of Christy Durrington's daughter, Kim Binns, and the remaining money could be considered a gift for his goddaughter.
Hawke drove Christy Durrington to the spa salon outside...
"Are you still able to stand? Do you need me to help you across?"
"No need, I've already recovered."
Christy Durrington slung her bag over her shoulder and walked into the beauty salon.
"Her recovery ability is truly remarkable, completely incomparable to that of young girls like Cheon Song-yi, Cho Helen, and Ivanka."
Hawke exclaimed.
Girls, you must take advantage of your prime years to date more young men. Young men are strong, vigorous, and capable of conquering the world!
Otherwise, when they get old, middle-aged and old men will have run out of ideas and skills, and the girls will be finished with their lower bodies.
After dropping Christy Durrington off, Hawke drove off to find Cheon Song-yi.
I've bought her the house, so I definitely need to let her know as soon as possible.
At this time, Cheon Song-yi had finished her work on set and returned home. Hawke showed Cheon Song-yi the photos he had taken on his phone:
"Take a look and see what you think. I've already made some small requests for you, and asked you to fix a few things. If there's anything you're still not satisfied with, just let me know and I'll mention it to the company again."
Cheon Song-yi (4.8) would definitely still be interested in a mansion worth tens of millions of dollars:
"Wow, it's really beautiful. If there's anything I don't like... I really can't find anything right now."
“Okay, then let’s wait until it’s all set up and you can move in and take a look,” Hawke said. “If you’re not comfortable living there, let us know and we’ll renovate it again.”
"Where is the house located?" Cheon Song-yi asked. "Is it close to you?"
“I knew you’d say that, so I placed it in Manhattan, south of Central Park, not far away,” Hawke laughed. “The community environment is also very good, and the surrounding neighbors are all wealthy people, so the atmosphere is definitely nice.”
"That's good."
Cheon Song-yi nodded; she was currently memorizing her lines, preparing for the upcoming filming.
199 is really moisturizing! [Please subscribe and give flowers!]
After that, Hawke stayed at home, watching Cheon Song-yi memorize her lines while scrolling through Twitter.
After Cheon Song-yi finished memorizing her lines, the two went to have dinner together, and then went to see the new house.
She was much more excited to see it in person than to look at photos.
For the building's exterior, the designer adopted a block-like design, with no decoration on the facade and regular 3.3m x 3.3m square windows on all sides, making it look both elegant and modern.
It looks quite cute from the outside, and looking out from the inside is like looking at New York through a series of picture frames.
Each bedroom is spacious and bright, decorated in white tones, with simple furnishings and plenty of white space.
The bathtubs are all placed in front of the windows, offering stunning views of Central Park and Midtown Manhattan. Living in a house like this is definitely the life of a winner.
"I really want to move in soon and see what it's like!"
Cheon Song-yi smiled happily.
