---- a better job of cleaning the clothes." Clarity: "Who are you? How dare you try to destroy my family's business? I'm warning you. The law applies to online messages too, you know. I can report you to the police for causing trouble and spreading rumors!" I couldn't resist laughing. "Oh? So you do know that the law applies to online messages too, huh? In that case, what gives you the nerve to spread rumors about me?" After seeing the messages from Mr. Zeller, I sent another text to the group. "T won't try to prove myself with empty words. Today, we'll be taking back the store from Tom's Laundromat. If you don't believe me, feel free to head over to the store now and take a look." Dad was right. I was rather lazy-so lazy that I didn't notice the rental agreement had ended two weeks ago. According to the terms of the rental agreement, the ---- renter needed to initiate negotiations with mea month prior to the end of the contract term if they wanted to continue renting from me. Anew agreement had to be signed as well. Thus, under these circumstances, I had every right to take back my property. Just then, Mr. Zeller arrived at the neighborhood with a group of professional movers. "Don't worry, Cassandra. Leave everything to us. I'll make sure your plan is carried out without a hitch," Mr. Zeller said warmly. "After checking out the people you pointed out to me, I found two that are renting from properties under Mr. Lewis' name. The realtor has already spoken to them. If anything proceeds as planned, they should be moving out in the next few days." I gave Mr. Zeller a thumbs-up as I eyed him in awe. He was extremely efficient, as expected of someone who had been Dad's assistant for so many years now. Per Mr. Zeller's instructions, the movers had gotten ---- into position at Tom's Laundromat. Just then, a familiar figure appeared before me. "What's going on, Cassandra?" Lugging his suitcase along, Tom appeared at the entrance to the neighborhood, looking a little disheveled. The young woman beside him was eyeing the high- rise apartment buildings in the neighborhood with a hungry look in her eyes. "It's been a while, Cassandra. What's happening right now?" Tom asked again as his eyes widened at the strange sight before him. After approaching me, he cast a nervous glance at the woman who was still checking out the neighborhood. Then, he lowered his voice and asked anxiously, " Cassandra, did my mother sell the laundromat? What's going on? I was only gone for a few days, so what-" Before he could finish speaking, Clara stuck her head ---- out of the laundromat, her hair unkempt. "Tom! You're back at last! That's the woman who's been causing trouble for us. You had better teach her a lesson!" Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
