owed $20 million to the bank, and everyone present knew in their hearts that Nate's father would definitely not be able to escape this prison sentence.

No matter how powerful a lawyer is, he can't win this kind of lawsuit.

If only the Nate family could afford a lawyer now.

Originally, in this small circle, the Nate family was the poorest.

With a net worth of tens of millions, at best it is enough to be a sidekick next to Blair at Constance High School.

However, the Nate family is in a special situation, and Nate's mother comes from a very prominent political family, and her status is about the same level as the Kennedy family in Jamie's previous life.

This can be seen from the fact that when Nate was in college, Nate's grandfather could get Nate into the New York City mayor's office for an internship with a phone call.

Including Nate, who runs a newspaper later, can run for mayor of New York before the age of thirty.

These are inseparable from the support of Nate's grandfather's family.

So the family is still mainly held back by Nate's father.

Nate's father is a typical phoenix man, who only began to make his fortune after marrying Nate's mother and entered the upper class.

If Nate's father had been a son-in-law with peace of mind, the Nate family might be better off now.

But Nate's dad is a strong person, and he tries hard to prove that he is worthy of Nate's mother, but his ability is really average, and he often messes up.

Once or twice, Nate's grandfather would help him wipe his ass for the sake of his daughter and grandson.

For example, if it weren't for Nate's grandfather to buy Enron shares from a bank, there would have been no need to wait for Martin Johnning's Ponzi scheme to be exposed, and the Enron crash alone would have been enough to make Nat's father unlucky.

However, after more times, Nate's grandfather looked down on Nate's father more and more.

Jamie even suspects that Nate's dad was planted in the hands of Martin Channing this time, on the one hand, it may be that luck really declined, and on the other hand, it is very likely that Nate's grandfather secretly pushed the boat and wanted to send Nate's dad directly to prison.

In this way, Nate and Nate's mother are completely relieved.

Anyway, Nate's dad borrowed money from the bank behind his family's back, and it couldn't be counted on Nate and Nate's mother.

Even if the Nate family and Nate's mother still have to bear part of the debt, the bank is hindered by the power of Nate's grandfather's family, and they dare not do anything to them if they do not repay the money.

However, the Nate family's current house has been seized by the bank.

Nate's mother had no choice but to move to an apartment in Nate's grandfather's name.

But the young and vigorous Nate is not ready to go to live, because it means that the family will bow to his grandfather's family in the future.

Dan was deeply moved by Nate's "self-improvement" fighting spirit, and immediately invited the homeless Nate to live in his home.

Just as Jamie moved out, Dan had a bedroom left empty in the house.

Nate glanced at Chuck and Blair, and saw that neither of them reacted, so he nodded helplessly.

In fact, whether it is Chuck or Blair, the house has a guest room, but neither of them has offered to take in Nate.

The reason is very simple, they are not optimistic that Nate can really live independently without relying on his grandfather's family.

After all, Nate's father has used himself as an example to prove that hard work is really not as reliable as fighting for a family background.

Nate will definitely not be able to escape the law of true fragrance in the end, and now he just refuses to bow to his grandfather for the sake of face.

After Nate returned to New York to find a place to live, Serena suddenly turned to Jamie and asked him a question.

"Where are you going to stay when you go back to New York?"

Serena's plan is for Jamie to stay with her in the hotel.

Although the hotel is not owned by Serena's family, it is actually about the same.

It is difficult for families who can charter the presidential suite of the hotel for a long stay without being treated as the boss by the hotel.

Of course, Serena's family has a house in New York, but Serena's mother, Lily, has recently been renovating her house.

Serena and her brother Eric have long since become accustomed to the fact that the house changes style from time to time, and the fact that the family may spend more time in the hotel's presidential suite each year than at home.

Don't ask why, just don't be bad for money.

Serena's grandmother, Sissi, was a well-known wealthy woman in New York, and according to one exaggeration, her family's wealth could buy half of Manhattan.

And Lily is the only daughter of Sissi, and the previous three ex-husbands are all worth a lot of money, so they all gave Lily a large amount of property when they divorced.

Now even the Chuck family, which has a net worth of more than 10 billion, is dwarfed in front of Serena's family.

For his girlfriend's kindness, Jamie can only regretfully refuse.

Half a year ago, in order to celebrate the successful publication of the novel "Percy Jackson and the Thief of Fire", John gave Jamie an apartment worth tens of millions.

In his previous life, John watched the housing prices in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou rise gradually, and knew that such a thing as a house must be bought early.

Especially in New York, buying a luxury apartment is also an important means of preserving the value of your investment.

If John had greeted Jamie in advance, Jamie would have persuaded John to stock up on dozens of more homes in Brooklyn instead of buying a house in Manhattan.

Housing prices in Brooklyn are low now, there is plenty of room for future appreciation, and it is easier to sell than those mansions on Manhattan's Upper East Side, which can cost tens of millions of dollars.

However, by the time Jamie found out, John's house had already been bought.

Encountering such a domineering and powerful father, Jamie really felt tired...... When he was led by the real estate agent to tour the penthouse of the Hampshire building on the south side of Central Park, Jamie felt that it was not difficult to accept that he was tired.

This building was built in the thirties between 6th and 7th Avenues, directly next to Central Park.

You can see it from any location in Central Park.

Naturally, this building is one of the best viewing buildings around Central Park, with unbeatable views.

The building has a total of 36 floors and 155 apartments.

Last year, a 37-storey penthouse was added to the building, covering more than 700 square meters, not including an oversized terrace facing Central Park.

The building is a condominium system, where buyers not only have to make a lump sum payment, but are also subject to review by the owners' committee.

With the assistance of a real estate brokerage company, John won the apartment for only 10 million yuan through some legal tax avoidance methods and transfer transactions.

Of course, the actual payment is more than that, but compared to the real market price of this penthouse, it is still earned.

Fortunately, John didn't even do the renovation of the house.

Otherwise, Jamie would have really cried and fainted in the toilet.

Living in a penthouse and enjoying the most expensive window view in the world, the decoration style is according to the aesthetics of his parents.

With such a home, Jamie really can't stay for a minute.

Over the past six months, Jamie has renovated his apartment in the minimalist style he likes.

Now that the smell of the new house has almost dispersed, the furniture and everything have been purchased, and you can move in with your bag when you go back this time.
