Chapter 238 You Decide

Bella was shocked as she took a proper glance around Lia's studio. It was about 1,000 square feet, and it wasn't that large, yet the price was so high that she couldn't even imagine it

Lia was so stressed that she could hardly eat. "I still have some orders that I have yet to complete. The deadline the landlord has given me isn't long enough. I'll also be forced to pay a penalty fee when that happens. They're all trying to force me into a dead end "Are you shocked to know how much this studio cost? You can ask Dominic how much the buildings around his company cost. It'll change your perception of life"

Bella wouldn't ask him that. Otherwise, she would seem like an idiot in his eyes. "So, what do you plan on doing?"

Lia said dejectedly, "I'll have to replace a suitable place to move to before the deadline I've been given, and I'll have to move there too. What else could 1 possibly do? "People Like us can only rent as we aren't and famous."

afford to buy a place. III had the money to buy a place for my studio, I'd be living lavishly like the rich

Bella gave it some thought and felt like she could try helping her. "Do you want me to ask Dominic if he has any suitable places that he could rent to you?"

Lia froze. "I can't pay the rent if it's too expensive. I can only rent a place that's around the price range of this studio. You can help me ask him. It'd be great if he had a place, but it's alright if he doesn't."

After eating, Bella game Dominic a call, and he only

She knew he was busy with his business trip and didn't want to waste his time, so she said directly, "Do you have any studios available for rent that have a reasonable rental fee? Lia wants to rent a place for her studio,"

Dominic seemed to be busy, but he paused for a moment before saying, "I only have some spots near Miller Group. But they aren't suitable for her to open a studio, and it isn't a rental fee issue.

"You can ask Leonard as his family owns a number of storefronts. He'll definitely have something that's much more suitable for her. I'm a bit busy now, so I gotta go."

After the call ended, Bella told Lia what Dominic had told him. Lia immediately shook her head when she heard that she'd have to talk to "Forget it. Although things between us aren't as bad as they used to be, they aren't exactly good either. I don't have it in me to ask him. I'll just slowly look for a place myself,"

to Leonard

Bella knew Lis wasn't willing to put her pride down. After she reached home, she secretly contacted Leonard Dominic was right as Leonard did have a tatable storefront that was near Lia's current studio.

He had two empty storefronts there that had yet to be rented out.

Bella explained what had happened, and Leonard agreed to rent one of them to her. He said he would bring the contract over to Lia tomorrow.

She was worried Lia would reject the offer because she felt like Leonard was doing charity by renting her the place. So, Bella arranged for the two of them to head to Lia's studio together.

The next day, once they arrived at Lia's studio, Leonard took out a contract and said, "You can take your pick. I have two storefronts available, and they're both nearby. The rental fee is also reasonable."

Lia looked at Bella and immediately understood what had happened. "I could've found a place myself. You didn't have to bother...

Leopard frowned slightly. "Would you really rather replace a new place yourself than rent a storefront under my family's name?"

Lia clucked her tongue. "That's not it. You're overthinking things. I'm just worried I'd trouble you. I'll only be using the storefront to open a studio and ram some small cash. I'm afraid I'd stop you from earning more money."

Leonard exhaled lightly before saying, "My family isn't going to depend on a storefront to earn a living. You can just tell me if you want to rent this place or not. If you don't want to, I can talk to your landlord and buy this storefront. Then, you'll be able to continue renting this place. It's all the same."

Bella advised, "There isn't any need for you to go through all that trouble. Lis you should just choose one to rent since those two storefronts are empty anyway. If not, I can also buy this place and rent it to you. You can decide for yoursell"

Lia was looking at her as if she had seen a ghost, "What are you saying? Do you have that much money? Are you you? Did the two of your agree to come here and make the angry? Well, let me think about it..." planning to sell that car Dominic gave
