Xiao Li watched her boss ingratiate herself with Nina Sinclair and was completely stunned.
Didn’t Ruby Sinclair say that Nina Sinclair had been abandoned and had no identity or status?
Nina Sinclair was also taken aback. She looked at the manager and asked, "Shouldn’t you be on her side?"
As she spoke, she pointed at Xiao Li.
Earlier, Xiao Li had been so enthusiastic that Nina thought she was a good person. Little did she know, Xiao Li was merely a fence-sitter, and more specifically, Ruby Sinclair’s. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI(F)ire.net
Now, it was surprising to her that the staff themselves hadn’t reached a consensus.
The manager, hearing Nina Sinclair’s words, chuckled politely, quickly saying, "It’s not like that. This employee violated our company’s regulations. In our agency, landlords usually don’t meet clientele directly; we handle introductions and leases."
Nina Sinclair’s eyes faintly swept over Xiao Li, whose face had turned pale and unpleasant—she seemed genuinely scared.
She vaguely believed that these people really weren’t siding with Xiao Li.
A moment later, Nina Sinclair probed, "But earlier, your employee boasted that I wouldn’t be able to rent a house. I thought this was your company’s attitude towards customers."
"How could that be!" The manager’s expression changed, immediately retorting, "Our agency’s sole purpose is to rent out properties. I doubt any agency would treat customers like that."
Ruby Sinclair’s earlier pride didn’t last long, seeing the two of them so eager to please Nina Sinclair. She frowned in displeasure.
"Xiao Li, what’s with your manager? Why are they ingratiating themselves to a woman like Nina Sinclair, who has no identity or status? Could she bring any benefit to your company?"
"I... I don’t know either."
To be honest, Xiao Li couldn’t understand why.
In fact, the manager and director were also puzzled. Just within a short span, their agency had been aggressively acquired, and the buyer was none other than the renowned Lancaster Group.
In Crestfall, the Lancaster Group was not to be messed with, and they had no authority to make decisions.
The higher-ups had one demand: to serve Nina Sinclair well and purchase any house she fancied.
The most critical part was not letting Nina Sinclair find out.
This request was certainly bizarre, but they had to comply. Now, in their eyes, Nina Sinclair was not someone to cross.
Nina Sinclair, seeing the managers being quite agreeable, gradually let down her guard. She said, "I’d like to rent an apartment near Thatcher Hospital. Do you have any recommendations?"
"Yes! We have some rare listings you can choose from."
The manager, speaking, took out a tablet, displaying the information for Nina Sinclair to see.
Nina Sinclair glanced at the housing information. In terms of location and environment, it was even better than her own. Her ideal had always been there, but good locations were always in high demand, leaving her with no opportunity.
Meanwhile, Ruby Sinclair and Xiao Li had been left aside for quite a while.
Seeing Xiao Li staying silent, Ruby protested discontentedly, "Hey! What’s wrong with you people? Nina Sinclair is just renting a place. Why are you going out of your way to please her?"
