He seemed incomparably noble.Xyla’s social media page was rather interesting. Usually, she would share little things about her day, where she went, what she ate, and what mood she was in. In fact, she would even include a picture for each post.The words she used in the texts were usually heartwarming and uplifting.However, her posts only dated back to a month ago.

The browser had sent her a push notification about Josh Batton’s latest news.Her jaws nearly dropped when she read the title. “Josh Batton will be attending Imperial Prime’s launching ceremony tomorrow!”Emily was in a state of complete disbelief.With a contract worth eight million dollars, Josh Batton should only go as far as shooting some photos or a video to promote the launch.

“Just you wait and see if I can do it,” Xyla Quest responded calmly. She did not even bother looking at Emily Quest.“Alright. If you can do it, I will broadcast myself doing a handstand.” Emily rolled her eyes at Xyla.“Get back to your room right now. You are not allowed to talk to your elder sister like that,” Jeremy Quest scoffed.Emily immediately went quiet and made her escape.***Due to Josh Batton’s presence, a huge audience turned up at Imperial Prime’s launching ceremony.By four o’clock in the morning, fans had already surrounded the temporarily enacted stage.Since Josh Batton had already reminded his fans to abide by the rules, everyone was cooperative. There was a perfectly empty road carved out, which allowed people to walk through to the property development’s sales gallery.When it was time for the official launch at eight o’clock in the morning, thousands had gathered.

Although Emily Quest had spent so much money on Josh Batton, she never received this kind of treatment from him. Each time, she could only look at Josh from afar. Now, Xyla was able to do something Emily could only dream about with ease. What right did Xyla have to do that?After the ribbon was cut, Josh proceeded to leave while Xyla walked into the sales gallery behind her with a group of people.When Emily saw this, she hurriedly got out of her car and made her way through the crowd to the sales gallery. Emily was here to watch Xyla get embarrassed and see how downtrodden Xyla would be once she realized the harsh reality.Suddenly, the sales gallery became packed. When Xyla saw that the salespeople were fully occupied, she decided to join them as she began introducing the property’s information to customers.Emily watched with disdain. However, instead of moving closer, she stayed by the door and observed silently.‘So what if there are a lot of people? They are just here to enjoy th

Sharon Lindt smiled satisfactorily before retrieving a tiny compact mirror from her pocket to check her make-up.After making sure that she looked fine, she turned to look at her friends. “How’s my make-up? Does it really look okay with my outfit?” “No problem,” one of the rich wives said.Only then did Sharon stop worrying. She began walking with her friends through the crowd to get to Xyla Quest.“Hello, pretty lady. We would like to buy your property,” Sharon said straightforwardly.

From head to toe, the lady had fair and smooth skin. She must have been a great beauty when she was younger.“What sizes of units would you prefer?” Xyla asked politely with a smile on her face.“We all want the biggest ones,” Shar

After the contracts were signed, the ladies proceeded to make their respective payments.The entire process took less than an hour.Once everyone had made their payments, Sharon Lindt got up from the couch and held Xyla Quest’s hand affectionately. “Are you tired, my sweet child?”Xyla was very touched by Sharon’s affectionate attitude. She immediately smiled and answered, “I’m not tired, Aunty. Are you tired?”Not only were these people rich, but they were also extremely nice to her. Xyla liked them a lot.“I’m not tired. When I see you, all my tiredness simply vanishes.” Sharon’s eyes were filled with joy.Xyla smiled shyly. “You’re making me feel embarrassed.”“It’s true.

“I would like to buy this building.”“I want this one.”“Give me this.”“Well, I’ll take this one then.”The four men said eagerly without even taking a moment to consider.Xyla Quest was beginning to doubt whatever she was seeing. What was going on? Why did so many people want to buy buildings one after another this early in the morning?Why did all the wealthy people gather here today? Was it because the promotion was very well done, coupled with the fact that their property development was in a strategic location? Was that why the wealthy folks wanted to invest in them?This was the only possibility Xyla could think of.While Xyla asked these questions in her mind, she guided the men to get their contracts signed.After that, the men paid and left without beating around the bush.Emily Quest, who observed this happening before her eyes, was so angry that she could not find the words.Within a short time, Emily witnessed Xyla successfully selling nineteen buildings. Xyla had taken a
