Chapter 234 The Most Expensive Mansion
"That Mr. Hall... have you known each other before?"
After the Rolls-Royce Phantom started, Tamaran, who was sitting next to Barron, asked softly.
"I have only met him once, but I have known his wife...Catherine even earlier."
Facing Tamaran's concerned look, Barron said:
"She used to be my brother's fiancée."
"Ah! So that's it, I just thought..."
Tamaran patted his chest and said.
Her movement made Barron think of a word, well, shaky.
"You think she's my ex-girlfriend or something?"
Facing Barron's rather playful expression at this time, Tamaran's face became more rosy and she said sheepishly:
"Well, that's why I just said that..."
Barron knew that she was referring to the intimate tone she used to call him "dear" at the end. Her intention was to earn some face for herself in front of her "ex-girlfriend who married someone else"...
Seeing Tamaran's shy look at this time, Barron patted her hand and said:
"No matter what, I want to thank you..."
When he arrived here, Barron had already remembered the meeting with Colin Hall through his best brother's former fiancée Catherine.
It's no wonder that he has no impression of the other party. The main reason is that that meeting took place before Barron's current soul came to this world, and it belonged to the memory of his predecessor.
And the process at that time was really like "meeting each other" in a literal sense...
It was in early May last year that Barron's brother came to London with his fiancée Catherine, seemingly specifically to watch an opera performance.
At that time, Barron had been staying in London after graduation.
After the show, his brother invited Barron to attend a party with his fiancée, Katherine.
Colin Hall was also present at the time, and his brother had introduced Barron once, so the two had really "met each other" before.
Because at that time, Barron's predecessor didn't like such social occasions very much, so after coping with it for a while, he left the party and went to a more attractive nightclub party...
That was why he was not impressed by that meeting.
As for Barron's brother's former fiancée Catherine Neville, who is now Mrs. Hall... Barron is relatively familiar with her.
After all, although his predecessor rarely returned to Chatsworth Manor at that time, he had met Catherine a few times.
But what Barron didn't expect was that after his brother's death, he never cared about Catherine's news - after all, his contact with her was from his previous experience, and things were happening one after another at that time, and he didn't have the energy to care about other people. of.
Unexpectedly, he met Catherine again, and it was also the first time he came to this world to meet this good brother's former fiancée. She had already married and became Mrs. Hall.
Recalling Colin Hall's behavior after seeing him just now, Barron could feel the other party's vague hostility and... provocation towards him.
The last time my predecessor saw Colin Hall was shortly before Cheap Daddy and Good Brother died in a car accident. At that time, Colin Hall's identity still belonged to Good Brother and his fiancée Catherine. "Friends", this inevitably made Barron doubtful. Did Colin and Catherine really just have an ordinary relationship at that time?
You know, at the funeral of Cheap Daddy and Big Brother, Catherine, who was the fiancée of Big Brother, did not show up. Their family just sent an insignificant person to attend - Barron clearly remembers that at that time, he was still thinking about it. It's a little strange.
And according to what Colin Hall just said, their wedding was held in June last year...
There was a car accident on May 19, and the funeral was held at the end of the month.
And then, after the good brother died, his fiancée married his former "friend" the next month?
No matter from which aspect, this is somewhat unjustifiable.
Relevant to Colin Hall's attitude towards him today...
Barron picked up his phone and sent a text message to Nigel Inkster, asking for information about Colin Hall and his family.
…
A convoy headed by a Rolls-Royce Phantom drove into Regent's Park in London's West End.
Located in the heart of London, it was once a royal hunting forest and opened to the public in 1838.
At first, Barron wanted to send Tamaran home first, but the girl was drunk and leaned against him, saying that she did not want her family to see her like this.
So Barron had no choice but to come here - a mansion he had recently purchased outside his villa in Kensington.
This mansion, located in the center of Regent's Park, is called The Holme. It was first built in 1818. It was later consolidated and renovated by a well-known developer and sold in the 1980s.
Barron spent 35 million pounds to buy this 4-acre mansion in the center of Regent's Park from its previous owner.
The main building area of the mansion is 29,000 square feet (approximately 2,700 square meters), consisting of two floors above ground and a basement.
The villa is in a classic Regency style and has 40 bedrooms, 8 garages, a tennis court, a sauna, a library and a large dining room, as well as 4 acres of private green space.
It can be said that it is adjacent to the lakeside and the surrounding gardens have outstanding scenery.
When choosing to buy this mansion, Barron saw the appearance of the villa and remembered the photos he had seen of this villa in his previous life.
This mansion was also very famous at the time because twenty years later, it was once known as the most expensive mansion in London - it belonged to a Saudi prince at the time and was sold for 250 million pounds, surpassing a certain boss Xu. The most expensive mansion in London at the time was purchased for £210 million in Hyde Park, setting a new record.
Of course, after buying this place, Barron mainly lived in the previous villa in Kensington on a daily basis. He only came here to live here occasionally at certain times. After all, Bonnie didn't know that he had purchased the mansion here. This mansion was also purchased in the name of an offshore company. If you check the information, you can't find him...
Since it is Barron's relatively private residence, Barron can relatively "let go" of everything in The Holmes.
In this mansion, Barron has a 30-year-old housekeeper with mature charm and professional training.
The housekeeper's name is Shalane Feola, and she manages five maids.
You know, in a city like London full of aristocrats and billionaires, there are naturally various companies that specialize in serving these top classes. Whether it is food, clothing, housing, transportation or various service personnel, money can solve all needs.
Both Barron's housekeeper and his maids were specially "customized" through this kind of company.
For example, the five maids in his mansion, regardless of their height, body shape, appearance, and even some personal circumstances... are all selected based on Barron's needs.
These companies hold various beauty pageants every year in Eastern Europe, Asia, South America and other places. The best among them will get the opportunity to serve the super rich and aristocrats...
Yes, in those countries where it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to survive, getting such an opportunity requires fierce competition.
Therefore, from their huge database, you can choose the maids you want to hire based on your preferences, such as appearance, body shape, skin color, and even hair color or eye color.
Of course, the higher the quality, the higher the price.
If you are not satisfied, they can even organize beauty pageants in certain countries to screen you based on your taste. Anyway, they can do it with money.
Of course, the contracts signed are also different. For safety reasons, Barron directly signed the contract with these maids after his intelligence team conducted background checks. From then on, they became the maids during the contract period. Barron's exclusive maid...
Even the employer's various needs can be reflected in the contract, as long as you can afford the corresponding salary.
As for these five maids, there are beauties from Eastern Europe, Asia, and South America...
Well, Barron's taste is relatively normal, and he doesn't like black pearls like some rich people...
"Your Highness, do you want to eat here?"
When Barron entered the villa, the slender and graceful housekeeper Saran Fiola asked respectfully.
"I've eaten. Let's ask someone to take this young lady upstairs to have a rest."
