Chapter 10
“That’s right… Dad, look, this is the list of top achievers in our ss. That’s me.” After that, X
Quest scrolled through the pictures of her results one at a time, showing them to Jeremy Quest.
She came first on nearly every single list!
Jeremy was pleasantly surprised. Although X did rather well in high school, she was definitely
not talented enough to get into a university like this.
However, after leaving home, she had gotten into this university, she was even the best performing
student.
“My baby girl, you are outstanding!” Jeremy could not hide the pride in his smile.
Now, all Jeremy could think about was X’s excellent performance in academics. Clearly, he had
forgotten all about Emily Quest being in the top fifty in her stream.
The feeling of being ignored and outshone made Emily feel very miserable.
Although Antis University was a famous university within the country, it was not worth mentioning
compared to Summend University.
Emily gritted her teeth. “What’s so great about that? It’s just Summend University.”
As soon as Emily spoke, May Conner kicked her foot under the table and gave her a look, which
hinted that she should shut up.
“What are you capable of other than being a tyrant at home? What’s so great about it? If you are so
capable, show me that you can do the same!” Jeremy yelled loudly.
While X listened to their conversation, she silently continued to eat. Without any intention to
interrupt, X seemed only to be an observer.
Since Jeremy never liked Emily’s personality, he felt increasingly annoyed by his younger daughter
after finding out what she did to X.
“Oh, right, a new building is under construction in the city center. We’re looking for an ambassador
for Imperial Prime. Do you have a suitable rmendation?” Jeremy asked.
Emily immediately answered, “Of course it should be Josh Batton. If he bes the ambassador,
our brand will make a lot of sales.”
“Stop talking about things that aren’t realistic. Who do you think Josh Batton is?” Jeremy asked.
“As long as the money offered is enough, he would be willing to endorse the brand. Isn’t Josh
Batton’s cost of endorsement twenty million dors? Let’s offer him thirty million dors instead. I
doubt he would refuse.”
Emily had been a long-time fan of Josh Batton.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Although she often went with her friends to Josh Batton’s concert and participated in his fan
meetings, she never had the opportunity to get up close and personal.
If they managed to hire him as their ambassador, Emily would have such an opportunity.
By then, she would be able to show off to her friends yet again!
“Aren’t you generous? Offering thirty million dors just like that,” X said calmly before putting her
orange juice ss down.
“Although it is a little expensive, the returns will be far greater. Don’t you know how powerful Josh
Batton’s fans are? Besides, I believe hispany would agree if I approached them personally.”
Emily seemed fully confident.
“Why?” X felt speechless about Emily’s confidence.
“Because I have money,” Emily said.
“Dad, do you really want Josh Batton?” X asked.
“I do. I don’t mind paying thirty million dors… But it is difficult to get him,” Jeremy said.
“I’ll get this person for you with ten million dors,” X said.
Emily rolled her eyes. “Ten million dors for Josh Batton. Who do you think you are?
“Why are you so sure that you can get Josh Batton to agree to such a low price? Do you think you
are his boss? Would he do whatever you ask of him?”
X could not resist chuckling a little. ‘Aren’t I his boss?’
“What are youughing at?” Emily seemed annoyed.
“Nothing…” X said.
“Let’s make a bet. If you can get him with ten million dors, I’ll use the thirty million dors to…
Whoever can’t get him will lose. By then, the loser will have to agree to the winner’s single request.
The request must be fulfilled, no matter what.”
Emily was certain that X would definitely not be able to hire Josh Batton. Although thirty million
dors might be possible, ten million dors was far too little.
Emily would use this opportunity to make a fool out of X.
She would make X kneel before her and beg for her forgiveness!
“Emily, don’t go too far,” Jeremy said coldly.
“Dad, this is just a bet between us sisters. How is it going too far? Besides, it’s still not certain who
would win,” Emily added.
“A nuisance.” Jeremy’s expression turned gloomy.
“Fine. I ept your bet. However, you must keep your promise if you lose,” X said decisively.
“Deal. What if the loser fails toply?” Emily asked.
“She will have to give up all of the Quest family’s inheritance. How about that?” X suggested.
“Deal…” Emily snapped her fingers. She would be able to get Josh Batton for sure.
With thirty million dors, she would be the winner for sure.
As for X, she was miles away from beating Emily.
“Dad, shall we seal the deal then?” X looked at Jeremy with a kind look on her face.
Jeremy looked deeply into X’s eyes before shaking his head helplessly. “Fine. Do what you
want.”
After that, he wiped his mouth with a napkin before standing up and leaving the dining room.
“X Quest, just wait to be tortured by me. I will get you to broadcast yourself barking like a dog on
the inte and make you give up the right to take over Dad’spany. Make sure you are
prepared,” Emily spoke as if she had already won.
Since their father said that she only knew how to be a tyrant at home, Emily would prove him wrong.
Besides, Emily had been very annoyed with X recently. This time, she would defeat X and
embarrass her in every way possible.
Meanwhile, X left without even looking at Emily.
***
At precisely eight o’clock in the evening, X Quest entered Dreand Hotel’s Rainforest Windy
Night room.
Dressed in a light orange wool sweater, a white flowery dress, and light orange high heel boots, she
seemed unusually approachable.
There wasn’t any jewelry in the world that could outshine her.
When she walked in, Josh Batton, Georgie Clementine, and the other managerial staff of X
Entertainment were already seated at a table.
The most attractive people here were undoubtedly Josh Batton and Georgie Clementine.
Dressed in a simple white hoodie and a ck cap, Josh Batton had no make-up on. His smile was
near perfection.
Even by just sitting there, he shone brighter than the stars in the sky.
Meanwhile, next to him, Georgie Clementine wore a pink tuxedo with a white shirt on the inside.
She had very light make-up on.
With her ck hair tidily groomed around her, she seemed like a working professional on television.
There was a formidable quality to her beauty, which made her feel somewhat unapproachable.
Although these two appeared to have contrasting personalities, there was a sense of harmony
when they sat next to each other.
Right then, everyone was chatting away happily.
When they saw X Quest walking in, they became silent almost unanimously. After that, they
stood up and greeted her, “President X, nice to meet you.”
X nodded at them with a slight smile before sitting down in an empty seat next to Josh.
“What were you all talking about?” X asked.
“Oh, nothing much. We’re just talking about the trainee recruitment ourpany will be running
soon…” Georgie said.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
While Georgie was speaking, her phone rang. There was an email in her inbox.
Georgie immediately opened it.
The email was from Emily Quest. It was an invitation for Josh Batton to endorse the Quest family’s
new real estate at thirty million dors.
Georgie was in a dilemma as to whether she should cry orugh. She directly handed her phone
over to X. “President X, what is this woman up to?”
