However, this could only be considered corridor space. “Miss Mira, does this area need design work?”
In Amina’s view, this area was money; after all, in a one-unit-per-floor layout, the corridor space was private.
“Sure!” Mira nodded. She had been considering how to decorate this space coming out of the elevator; otherwise, it looked quite empty.
“Alright.”
Amina nodded and then said to Karen beside her, “Don’t forget this area when measuring later.”
“Mm-hmm,” Karen responded repeatedly, coming back to her senses.
As they spoke, the four of them had already arrived at the entrance. Last night, Jacob had recorded Mira’s face and fingerprints, so she just had to scan her face, and the door opened.
Although she had been here several times, this time Mira’s mood was different. She had Lilian, this plastic friend, by her side, along with two outsiders.
This time, her identity was “the hostess”! The sense of superiority of being a Mimia Bay owner surged within her.
Upon seeing the interior scene, Karen was even more certain that this was the same house she had seen in a quick video!
However, seeing the real thing was a completely different experience. Standing in this house, she could truly feel how large it was.
Lilian couldn’t wait to walk to the center of the living room, looking around, and then exclaimed, “Indeed, poverty limits my imagination!!”
Looking at her dream home, Karen felt nothing but envy.
She suddenly remembered her ex-husband Jacob, who, after opening his fifth Hot pot restaurant, had once passionately declared that one day he would buy a house in Mimia Bay.
At that time, she had also dreamed along with him. Thinking back now, it was simply laughable; how could a few Hot pot restaurants afford a house in Mimia Bay! “Miss Mira, I saw a house-receiving vlog for Mimia Bay on Quick Sound. Was it you who filmed it?” Karen leaned closer to Mira, initiating a conversation.
“Ah?”
“You saw that video!” Mira looked a bit surprised at this designer assistant she had just met, not expecting her to recognize the house from that video.
“Being a designer, I pay special attention to houses,” Karen made up a reason, mainly because she had been looking at houses recently.
She recognized it because of her longing for luxury homes; she had watched that house-receiving vlog no less than ten times, even pulling it up to cheer herself up when she was feeling down, telling herself that as long as she worked hard and found the right person, maybe one day she could also live in such a luxury home.
“The video was just for fun; I mainly wanted to document my weight loss journey. I didn’t expect it to become quite popular!” Mira replied with a smile.
“Miss Mira is truly fortunate!”
“Having such a husband,” Karen sighed with envy, even though Amina had already analyzed that this Miss Mira was most likely not the main wife.
But driving a Mercedes and living in such a luxury home, did it really matter if she wasn’t the main wife??
If it were Karen, she would be willing! She just feared that the rich man would think she was too old! I can’t think of myself that way; I’m only 28! Still young!!
Karen quickly encouraged herself in her mind.
Next, Mira took Amina and Karen to carefully tour each room.
“Miss Mira, is the second bedroom going to be a princess room?” When they reached the second bedroom, Amina asked.
Because this bedroom already had a pink princess bed set up, and even the mattress packaging had cartoon patterns.
“Yes!”
“This is the princess room!” Mira nodded repeatedly and reminded, “Director Ai, you need to put in more effort in this room.”
“Not just this room; I will put in effort for the entire design!” Amina smiled, her words were precise.
“Does Miss Mira already have children?”
“Can’t tell at all!” Karen said, quite surprised.
“Oh, I have a five-year-old daughter!” Mira answered without hesitation; she couldn’t tell others that she actually wanted to be a stepmother to the little girl!
After all, they were just two outsiders; it didn’t matter how she said it.
Karen’s heart stirred slightly, suddenly thinking of Macy. However, she wouldn’t mention having had a child to anyone; if asked, she would just say she had a short marriage without children.
After all, a woman who has had a child has even less market value. She couldn’t convey the message that she had already given birth; otherwise, how could she attract a partner? “Miss Mira, you maintain your figure so well!”
Amina remarked, having seen through everything. If nothing unexpected happened, this Miss Mira was a “stepmother,” and she might not even be the established one.
“Karen, let’s get to work.”
“The positions of the bay windows in the master bedroom and the princess room need to be measured with a ruler; the instrument’s data may not be accurate.”
After roughly touring the entire house, Amina called Karen to officially start working.
Today’s designers no longer need to measure distances with a tape measure; they have professional instruments that provide more accurate measurements.
However, corners and edges still need to be measured manually to avoid discrepancies, just like Amina mentioned about the two bay windows, as both had a 270-degree circular design, making the situation more complex.
Next, the two began setting up instruments to record various data.
Mira didn’t disturb their work and went to chat with Lilian, who was taking photos while touring the house.
“Mira, I finally understand why you care so much about Mr. Jacob!”
“Indeed, you have to invest to get returns!” Lilian sincerely exclaimed, previously thinking her plastic friend was too humble.
What man is worth you kneeling for? Now she understood.
If a man bought her a 500,000 Mercedes and let her live in such a luxury home, she wouldn’t just kneel; she’d do anything! The key is to be creative!
To give you a feeling of being at home! “Mira, do you mean the bed and mattress that cost over two million are from this house?” Lilian asked again.
“Yes!” Mira nodded.
“It doesn’t look particularly special; why is it so expensive?”
The two were now at the bay window in the master bedroom. Lilian had just taken selfies there, capturing the river view, which looked great.
As they spoke, she walked over to the large bed in the master bedroom and pressed down on the mattress.
“Wow, this mattress rebounds well; the feel is super comfortable!”
Once she touched it, Lilian felt the mattress was different.
“This mattress is equivalent to a Mercedes, of course, it’s comfortable,” Mira shrugged lightly.
“Rich people really don’t treat money as money!!” Lilian exclaimed again, pressing down on it, suddenly saying, “Oh, this mattress is a bit dirty; it seems to have something on it?”
Upon hearing this, Mira’s face stiffened, immediately recalling last night’s experience.
She had given herself to him on this very bed! However, the mattress hadn’t been unwrapped, and there was a plastic cover protecting it, so after they finished last night, she had wiped it down, and it was clean.
Thinking back, she must have been a bit rushed while wiping it and didn’t clean it thoroughly.
“Mattresses inevitably get something on them during transport; it’s fine, the protective cover hasn’t been removed!”
“Come on, let’s go take photos on the balcony!” Mira forcibly led Lilian away from the master bedroom to avoid this plastic friend uncovering the truth.
Although such matters weren’t a big deal, it was still a bit awkward.
“I still want to try that mattress!”
“That mattress costs tens of thousands; you could buy a house in a less desirable area for that!” Lilian was still a bit reluctant.
“Mr. Jacob hasn’t even tried it; how can you be so bold!”
Although Mira’s words were an excuse, they also served as a reminder to Lilian to have a sense of boundaries.
When visiting someone else’s home, it’s best to just look around; at most, sit on the sofa. Would you really roll around on their bed?
What if they think you’re dirty! On the other side.
