Chapter 227
The woman nodded firmly. She could tell that this young lady was in a hurry to find a place to stay.
She pointed to the top two floors of the apartment and said, "We're renting the top two floors. On the second floor, we have a bedroom, a small living room, and a bathroom.
"There's also a small office with a computer and a desk, so you can draw or do work inside.
"The third-floor layout is similar to the second floor, but without the office. However, the third floor gets a lot of sunlight and has a good view of the area. Would you like to take a look, miss?" Lucy's eyes lit up as she heard the woman's description.
Renting out both floors would be convenient as she and Cillian could each have a floor to themselves. Moreover, the second floor had an office desk, which would be perfect for Cillian to work on his papers during his stay in Charleston.
Plus, she noticed earlier that there was a small balcony on the third floor with some tables and chairs outside. During her free time, she could enjoy afternoon tea, bask in the sun, or play the violin on the balcony.
She gently nodded to the woman. "I'd love to take a look."
The woman quickly led her upstairs. When Lucy saw the design of the staircase, she was even more satisfied.
The staircase was different from the typical staircases that were built inside the house. This one was built outside, which meant that there was no need to pass through someone else's living area to get to their respective floors.
Lucy went upstairs to look at the second floor first.
The interior of the second floor looked very cozy, with the white walls and the warm-toned furniture. As she stepped inside, she felt the softness of the rug beneath her feet.
In the small living room, she saw a wooden coffee table, a long sofa, and two recliners.
Further in, she entered the bedroom, which had a large 1.8-meter bed with gray-blue bedding. There was even a small television across from it.
Lucy then inspected the bathroom and the small office on that floor.
She nodded satisfiedly. The bathroom was clean, and the office was well-equipped.
Lucy then turned to the woman and asked, "Can I take a look at the third floor?"
With a smile, she nodded. "Of course, it's my pleasure."
The woman then led Lucy upstairs to the third floor.
The layout of the third floor was similar to the second floor, but it was even cozier, with flowers decorated throughout the place. Not to mention, the bedding in this bedroom was a warm yellow tone. Lucy turned to look at the balcony and was surprised by what she saw.
It was a floor-to-ceiling window with pastel green curtains. She opened the door to the balcony and stepped outside, feeling the warmth of the sun shining upon her and the gentle breeze that carried the fragrance of flowers.
The wind also blew on the chimes hanging on the balcony, creating a relaxed and warm atmosphere.
She turned to look at the woman and asked, "The rooms here are excellent. May I know how much the rent is?"
The woman smiled. "The rent here is 3,500 dollars per month. May I know which room you're interested in?"
