Drama : Chapter 13 Villa for Sale — ENGLISH [Communicative] STD 9 — Question

Gaston is a shrewd businessman. He does nothing without earning profit in it. So he doesn’t want to buy the villa in the beginning. Rather he projected it as an absolutely worthless house. But when Mrs Al Smith buys the villa from him at a high price, he buys it at a lower price from Juliette on a back date and makes a profit of one hundred thousand francs on it. He becomes keenly interested in buying it in order to become its real owner to legalise his deal with the lady.
