“She’s stepping into her own grave in such a hurry.” Xyla Quest chuckled before replying to the email.
“I’m very interested.” She wrote.
Emily Quest responded almost instantly. “Really? Can you give me your contact number? Let’s discuss this over a call.”
Xyla smiled before sending Georgie Clementine’s phone number to Emily.
After a second, Emily’s call came in.
Seeing this, Xyla immediately picked up the phone and excused herself from the room. “Hello, how are you…” She said while leaning lazily against the wall.
Xyla intentionally changed her voice so that she sounded completely different.
“Hello, are you Josh Batton’s manager, Georgie Clementine?”
“Yes, I’m very interested in what you mentioned. However, I think that thirty million dollars is not enough…” Xyla said while twirling her hair with her fingers.
“What about thirty-five million dollars?”
“But most of our deals are at least forty million dollars these days,” Xyla replied.
“Well… Well then, let’s make it forty million dollars!” Emily answered without hesitation.
“Deal.”
“Really? In that case, let’s sign the contract at eight o’clock in the morning tomorrow. How does that sound? I’ll send you the location for where we will meet to sign the contract.” Emily sounded overjoyed.
“Deal.” Xyla smiled satisfactorily.

When Emily Quest heard the word ‘deal’, she nearly cried out in excitement.
Although the price was slightly higher than she anticipated, she decided to use her savings to top up the remaining amount.
If she could defeat Xyla Quest, so what if she had to spend an extra ten million dollars? Once Xyla was defeated, Emily could embarrass Xyla all over the internet and claim all of the Quest family’s businesses.
Emily excitedly leaped around her room before finally sitting down on her bed. With trembling hands, she opened the WeChat group, ‘Circle of Famous Chicks’.
With herself included, there were a total of six people in the group. These were all her closest female friends.
In the group, all the girls come from families with well-established businesses. However, they each had different standards.
According to what Emily was aware of, all of them tried asking their fathers to hire Josh Batton to endorse their respective brands because they liked Josh Batton. However, Josh Batton did not even reply to their requests.
This time around, Emily was able to get Josh Batton to agree on her own. Naturally, she wanted to show off.
“@Everyone, do you know what just happened? Josh Batton has just agreed to endorse our family’s new property development!
“Your husband, Josh Batton! Your favorite Josh Batton! @Everyone.”
Within a second, the group went into an uproar. Everyone expressed how jealous they were while they cheered excitedly.
After that, they begged Emily to bring them along when she went for the advertisement shoots.
At that moment, Emily felt as if she were being treated like a queen. This very much satisfied her need for glorification.
After showing off in the group, Emily sent Xyla a message on WeChat. “Josh Batton has already agreed with my proposal. What about you? I bet they didn’t even care to reply to you.
“Xyla Quest, just wait to be tortured by me. You have always been this foolish.”
