Chapter 147 A new neighbour? (1/2)

Harry was still frustrated with his inability to contact with Ryn when his phone rang.

He quickly checked the caller on the display, hoping it was the person he was missing so much.

But to his disappointment, the call was actually from one of his friends.

”Hey, Harry. What's up?” Kenny asked cheerfully when Harry finally answered the call.

”Hmm...”

”We're going to play a game and need one more player. Come on, join us,” Kenny said and Harry even heard more sound from Kenny's side, cheering him to come.

Harry frowned. He wanted to decline, wanting to look for Ryn but... where could he find her? He had no idea where she could be. Even if she stayed at that man's house, he had no idea where the address was.

”Fine. Send me the address.”

His reply was answered with a loud cheer coming from Kenny's side.

He quickly locked the door and went into his car. He waited for the address from Kenny and quickly set it on his GPS. It took only twenty minutes for him to arrive, using the shortcut he remembered from memory.

He told the guard at the security post and handed his driving licence. Then, he looked for the empty parking lot for guest, humming to himself. Apparently, the game Kenny was talking about was e-games, not a real game.

He parked the car and walked toward the elevator, sending a message to Kenny about his arrival.

When he reached the floor of Kenny's apartment, he saw three women in front of a house. His eyes widened seeing a familiar back.

”Ryn...” he choked out but before he could call out her name loudly, the three women entered the house.

”Hey, Harry, you're here,” the door he was standing in front of opened and Kenny appeared.

”You're finally here. We've been waiting for hours,” One groaned, flapping his hands lazily.

Harry took a seat next to One and reached for the game console. Without even talking, he already knew he was in a group with One.

They started to play but soon enough they groaned at Harry. He could not stay focus and turned the game into a one-sided play.

”Harry, what is wrong with you today?” One groaned, staring at Harry.

”Sorry,” Harry dropped the game console and headed straight to the door.

He wanted to see Ryn.

He opened the door and went to the house Ryn entered earlier. However, he found the house already locked.

His shoulders dropped unhappily.

Where did Ryn go?

*~*~*~*

Ryn crossed her arms and frowned. They were now on their way to the third house.

”So none still interest you?” Mei Li asked.

”Not sure about that...” Ryn muttered. She was comparing between the two houses she say today mentally, looking at each pros and cons. Which one was the best?

In order for her to make a decision quickly, she would just drop the one she did not like, just comparing two at one time. Quicker and less hassle.

Once she chose the one she liked, she opened the file for the third house to check the info.

”We're here,” Mei Li announced dryly.

Ryn looked around. It seemed like Mei Li was right.

Again this house has a security system. Mei Li settled the entry requirement before parked the car next to Sugar's.

Ryn ticked on the security system in the list of house requirement in her mind. But she still needed to look at the other security measures in order to tick the second box of the security system.

Mei Li grabbed her bag. She locked the door and followed behind Ryn. Honestly, she was getting tired.

Managing Ryn's workload was not as tiring as this!

Only two days... no... one and a half-day and she felt like her legs turning into jelly. Her body all in pain. She had to sleep hugging an ice bag.

She was so pitiful, she cried for herself. Poor her.

Sugar checked the floor and number again before the door of the elevator open. She closed the file and led the women into the lift and confidently pressed the fourteenth floor.

The third house was on the fourteenth floor.

The highest floor of the building.

When the lift door opened, they found that only two units were there.

”Wait. Will the guard do a perimeter check here?” Ryn suddenly asked when they reached the unit for sale.

”Of course,” Sugar replied, choosing the correct key this time to unlock the door.

Ryn frowned. Her eyes looked at all two units suspiciously. Would the guard came here checking the perimeter? This was the highest floor with only two units.

Somehow she had doubt about it.

”Sugar.”

”Yes?” Sugar popped out her head from inside the house.

”Let's go to the fourth house,” Ryn announced and made and U-turn toward the lift.
