Chapter 901

"I'm just happy that I finally got to make this relationship official after waiting so long. The least I can do is let everyone else share in my happiness," Shanley Schwartz admitted without a moment's hesitation.

"Tsk." Juniper Payne let out a soft scoff, turning off her phone and looking away, too lazy to indulge his absolute lack of restraint.

The car drove on for quite a while.

Looking out the window, Juniper noticed the unfamiliar scenery and asked in confusion, "We aren't heading back to the Cloudscape Community?"

"I'm taking you somewhere." Shanley freed up one hand to gently grasp hers, smiling with a profound air of mystery.

She couldn't guess what kind of trick he was pulling this time. But since she was letting him have his moment of joy today, she figured she might as well let him go all out.

Lulled by the motion of the car, Juniper drifted off to sleep. When she woke up, she found the vehicle parked in a sprawling suburban area. Nestled between rolling hills and a clear lake, the area was lush with vibrant plant life. The air was incredibly fresh, brimming with vitality. Not far away stood several modern-style houses currently under construction, exuding a sense of peace and tranquility. It was the kind of breathtaking location that instantly put the mind at ease.

Juniper furrowed her brows. What was Shanley doing bringing her here?

"You're awake?" Seeing her open her eyes, Shanley immediately opened the car door and took her hand to lead her out.

"Where are we going?" Despite her question, Juniper obediently let him guide her. "To sell you off." Shanley looked down, his gentle gaze landing on her face as he teased, "A girl as cute as you would definitely fetch a good price."

Juniper stared at him, utterly speechless. After a few seconds of silence, the corner of her lips twitched. "Whoever ends up buying me must have committed some terrible sins in their past life."

"Heh." Amused by her retort, Shanley tightened his grip on her hand. This girl was getting sharper by the day.

The two of them walked further in.

Following a winding path, a magnificent, luxurious estate gradually came into view. It looked like a grand manor, with villas of various sizes connected to one another. The estate was fully equipped with gardens, swimming pools, and recreational facilities. Even Juniper, who had seen her fair share of luxury mansions, was taken aback by the sheer scale of the place.

"Let's go inside and take a look."

Before Juniper could say anything, Shanley spoke up again. Although the villa wasn't finished, it was clear that construction had started a while ago. The interior structure was essentially complete, leaving only the final touches and the furnishing to be done. The design followed a minimalist, creamy-white aesthetic, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows allowing sunlight to pour in. The expensive crystal chandeliers hanging above caught the light,

sparkling brilliantly. It was an

incredibly inviting space.

"Do you like it?" Shanley stepped behind Juniper and wrapped his arms gently around her, resting his chin on her shoulder as his soft voice brushed against her

ear.

"You bought this?" Juniper only hesitated for a moment before realizing what was going on.

"No." Shanley curled his lips into a smile, his voice deep and raspy. "To be precise, I bought it for you."

Bought it for her?

"Don't tell me you bought this to impress some other woman, broke up halfway through, and are now

just repurposing the gift for memet

Juniper pushed him away and crossed her arms over her chest, eyeing the house with an amused expression An estate this massive. couldn't possibly be built in just two or three months. Was he trying to fool her?

"There hasn't been any other woman but you." Shanley followed her, walking closely

by her side as he put on a wronged expression. "I bought it two months after we

met. I pushed the contractors to speed up the construction."

It had cost a massive amount of manpower, resources, and money to get it to look like this today.

"Juniper, how about this as our marital home?"

"Marital home?" Juniper stopped in her tracks, her deep gaze locking onto his as she smirked. "We made the relationship official this morning, you're gifting me a marital home this afternoon. Are you planning to drop a marriage license in front of me tonight?"

"Hmm?" Shanley's dark eyes lit up as he asked in a gravelly voice, "Can I?"
