Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 617
“What do you think? Do you want to rent it? If you do, I'll give you a discount since you're Zachary’s sister-in-law. Your rent will be
a little cheaper than others, but don't tell anyone else. If they find out, they'll come to me asking for a discount as well. That
would be a huge loss.”
Liberty was immensely touched. She had to cross that street every day to and from work, so she knew very well how much traffic
that street held.
Snackbars, restaurants, and even dessert stores over there had a remarkable business. She had been incredibly envious of
those who could rent a shop lot and open a business on that street. Unexpectedly, those shopfronts belonged to Duncan.
“How much is the monthly rent?”
“All stores in downtown Wiltspoon are much more expensive than other places. Among the stores | have there, the smallest is
about forty square feet, and the larger ones are more than a hundred square feet. What kind of eatery are you planning to
open?”
“A breakfast store.”
“Then you don't need that big of a space. The price of breakfast isn't extravagant, so you can just rent one with a size of forty to
fifty square feet. I'll ask the old couple who are retiring how big their store is.
“You can just pay me eight thousand for the monthly rent, but you have to keep it a secret and don't tell anyone. | charge others
over ten thousand a month.”
Liberty nodded repeatedly. “I won't tell anyone, Mr. Duncan, but will it be a great loss for you if you charge me so little?”
“I've earned back the capital | spent to buy those stores long ago. Now, | turn a profit no matter how much rent | charge, so you
don't have to worry about it. Just do a good job. If you don’t mind, you can take the initiative to increase your rental payment to
me after you've earned back your capital.”
He was also a businessman.It was all about interests.
Liberty smiled. “Okay. When | get my capital back, I'll pay you as much as you charge the others. I'll take your store, Mr. Lewis.
I'll go back and notify my superior about my resignation now.”

“All right. I'll have someone contact you to sign the contract later.”
Duncan acted decisively. “If you want to stop working before your probation period is over, tell your manager. She'll calculate
your work attendance and prorate your salary accordingly.”
“Thank you, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty thanked him from the bottom of her heart.
“You're welcome. I'm only giving you a discount because of your brother-in-law. I'll patronize your breakfast store to support you
when you're open for business.”
He heard from Zachary that the Hunt sisters were great cooks.
“I'll go back and resign now, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty came in with a cold face but went out with a smile.
When she left, Duncan picked up his phone and sent a voice message to Zachary.
“Zachary, your sister-in-law quit. She wants to open a breakfast place. | happen to have a store on Westring Avenue 2 that can
be vacated, so | rented it to her for a lower price.”
Again, it took Zachary a long time to reply.
Only one word came from Zachary.
[Thanks.]
Duncan breathed a sigh of relief. “He didn't say much, but at least he's willing to reply to me. | thought that the iceberg was
ignoring me because | messed up.”
He rented out a store in exchange for one word from Zachary, but it enabled him to finally work at ease.
Meanwhile, something was happening in the managing director's office at Waltham Electronics.
“Hank, what the hell is going on? All the clients you're responsible for have either canceled their orders or suspended our
partnerships. Many of them have also complained about receiving goods that had a lot of defects mixed in. Are you even

doingyour job?”
Hank was so chastised by his boss that he did not dare to speak.
