Norris looked around in surprise, "How did we end up here?"Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    Just as Roseanne was about to speak, a cheery sales agent approached them with a smile, "Are you folks interested in taking a look at some homes? We''ve got a wide selection, perfect for first-time buyers or those looking to upgrade."


    Roseanne replied, "We''re just browsing for now."


    "Right this way, you can see our model of the entire development. It''s very thoughtfully nned out, with a supermarket, schools, hospitals all nearby. The amenities are top-notch."


    Roseanne nced over the model, noting, "The buildings seem a bit close together."


    "Well, that''s the trade-off with high-rise living; the space between buildings tends to be morepact."


    "I heard you have townhouses?"


    The development offered two types of homes: the high-rise apartments Roseanne was currently looking at and a section of cozy townhouses.


    The townhouses were designed with a touch of "small" because they only had two stories, not toorge, but each came with a frontwn and a backyard, ideal for small families.


    Moving away from the traditional rge mansion" concept, these were crafted specifically for smaller households, ensuring enough living space without feeling too vast or empty. The unique modern architecture made this development a sought-after spot in Pinehollow.


    Roseanne had done her homework, "I''d like to see thekeside townhouses."


    Norris had a green thumb and insisted on having a spacious yard.


    Madge loved writing and reading outdoors, so a quiet backyard, preferably with a gazebo for tea and rest, was essential.


    The sales agent, noticing Roseanne''s interest and precise knowledge of the townhouses, took a quick look at her. Despite her simple appearance, there was an air of elegance about her, though it was hard to gauge her buying power at first nce.


    After all, looks can be deceiving.


    "Anne, what are you talking about?" Norris quickly pulled his daughter aside, "Let''s just stick to the model. Don''t get people thinking we''re serious about buying!"


    Roseanne asked, "Dad, what do you think about this ce?"


    "It''s nice. A few of my colleagues bought apartments here."


    The location was unbeatable, just a short walk from Horizon Future Middle School, no need for a bike ride.

    Madge nodded, "They''re working hard even during the holidays. We''re just here for fun; let''s not waste their time."


    Norris agreed, "Yeah, let''s head out..."


    Their whispered conversation, although subdued, didn''t escape the keen ears of the sales agent, whose smile faded. So, they were just window shopping!


    The middle-aged couple looked like they lived frugally. What money could they have?


    Buy a townhouse? Why not wish for the moon while at it?


    Roseanne gave her parents a reassuring look and stepped forward, "Could we perhaps see the townhouses?"


    The sales agent managed a polite smile, "I''m sorry, but our exclusive townhouses are only avable to VIP clients."
