Cassie Kofi dashed over, thinking the person in the car was Lexi Le. She knocked on the car door and said, "Lexi, Lexi, open up! I have something to tell you."
The window rolled down, revealing the face of a stranger.
"Who are you?" The man looked to be in his fifties, a balding uncle.
"Who are you?" Cassie was stunned when she saw him and instinctively asked back. (Note: For '物业大叔', use 'property manager' or 'security guard' instead of 'property uncle' for more natural English.)
"Who are you then?" The balding uncle was a bit impatient at first, but since Cassie looked decent, he remained patient.
"I'm here to find Lexi. He lives here," Cassie said impatiently. "Villa 2."
The balding uncle chuckled, "Oh? How come I don't know anyone named Lexi in my family?"
"Uncle, what are you talking about!" Cassie was annoyed.
The balding uncle got out of the car and sized Cassie up. Seeing her well-dressed, he didn't think she was a gold digger.
So the balding uncle patiently said, "I've lived here for seven or eight years. The property staff all know me, and they know my family too. So, who exactly is this Lexi you're talking about?"
Cassie started to panic.
How could this be?
Wasn't Lexi supposed to be here?
"Young lady, have you been scammed?" The property manager kindly reminded her, "We know all the residents in this villa district, and there's no one like the person you're looking for."
Cassie was really panicking now. She quickly pulled out her phone, found a photo of the two of them, and handed it over, asking, "Have you seen this person? His name is Lexi Le, son of a Coal Reserve magnate."
Both the balding uncle and the property uncle looked at the photo and shook their heads. "There's no such person. If our community had such a handsome young man, we would definitely remember him."
Cassie felt as if she'd been struck by lightning! Lexi Le, who had swindled billions from the Kofi Family, had already changed his identity and disappeared to the distant northeast.
How could this be!
How could this happen!
Where's Lexi? Where is he?
