Chapter 14

Emily didn't take the car. Instead, she walked back to the sales center. She needed time to sort it out and to calm down. 
She was surrounded by other sales when she came back.

The manager walked over with a big smile on his face, "Emily, you are so great.
How did you sell so many houses at one time? No wonder you are the top sales of our company. You're the best."
"Yes, Emily, you are awesome.
"
"How did you persuade that man to buy so many houses?
"
"That makes us admire you very much!
"
The others also joined and shot envious looks at Emily.

"Ah, you all know?
" Emily was surprised.
The manager smiled radiantly, "Mr.
Brent's assistant has arrived and is now waiting for you in the VIP sector to sign the contract. How can we not know?"
Emily said, "Thank you all for helping me.
I cannot make it alone. Manager, I'll share the commission with the team."
"Emily, you never let me down.
Don't worry! I guarantee that the results will be satisfactory for everyone." The manager said with a big smile.
Emily smiled, nodded, and immediately went into the VIP room.

She knew that she could not handle such a big deal on her own.
If the manager distributed part of the profits to others, not only did they feel fair but also would they thank her rather than resent her. After all, they still had to work together in the future. Besides, they also shoulder the responsibilities for her. If anything went wrong in the future, she wouldn't be the only one that got blamed.
The contract was quickly printed out and sent to Emily.

Mr.
Brent's assistant Jason signed his name on it and paid the full amount. 
When everything was settled, Jason said to Emily, "Mr.
Brent is free tomorrow night. You can arrange the dinner at that time. He doesn't like noisy places, so you'd better choose a quiet restaurant and come alone. This is my phone number. You can send me the address after reserving a table."
"What?
" Emily looked at him blankly. Who said she was going to treat Franklin to dinner?
Jason said calmly, "So, Miss Johnson.
Don't you think you should treat your VIP a fine dinner after closing such a big deal?"
"Of...
Of course." Emily stumbled.
Sending Jason away, Emily breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she began to worry about which restaurant she should choose. How did she know where to find a quiet and fantastic restaurant?
"What's up?
"
When she was still troubled by the reservation issue, she didn't expect Anthony to call her.

Anthony was even angrier.
"How dare you to ask me? How many days haven't you come back?"
Emily sneered.
It has been a long time since she moved out. Why did he call her until now!
"I know you don't care whether I am home or not!
You never treat me as your daughter. Why do you play the dad card now?"
"Come home tonight.
I have something to tell you." Anthony knew he was wrong and decided not to argue with her.
"I'm busy.
I don't have time." Emily refused.
"Emily, you were given a choice to do it, an easy way and a hard way, but it seems you prefer the hard way.
Have you forgotten about your mother?" Anthony threatened her.
Emily gritted her teeth and said, "Don't keep threatening me with this.
I'll pay for my mother's medical expenses in the future."
"And you don't want that jewel necklace that your mother left to you?
"
"Of course I do.
That's what my mother left to me. You said you would give it back."
"Hmph, go home if you want it, or I'll give it away.
" Anthony hung up.
