Speaking exercise

I paid the deposit to the landlord, but it returned, the landlord did not receive it. He thinks my credit is bad, but actually I type the wrong credit card number. The second day, he call me and said the deal is off. At first, we asked an agent to look around the office, the office belong to the person. If we sign contract with the landlord, the agent will get his commission. If we rent the office without the agent, he will not get his commission. Actually we did this. The property management came to us and told us we can rent the office from him. The price is similar, only 300 yuan difference. The agent knew this, he called the landlord to call off the deal, and he will find a new tenant with good price.
