Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1374

“That’s okay; I have the slot reserved,” Tony said. “There’s a saying in the advertising world, ‘If you can’t be a president, be an advertiser!’ You should really give it a try. Even Melvania’s President Clinton had an advertising background!”

“But I still have a full-time job,” Emmeline said. “After the summer break, I have to go back to teaching at school.”

“That’s not a problem. You can consider this as a part-time gig with me. I won’t shortchange you,” Tony said enthusiastically. “The main thing is that you’ll undergo the training, and later you can train our staff. That’s the most critical part.”

Emmeline thought carefully. Tony’s proposal seemed to offer multiple benefits.

“Let’s go with this plan for now,” Emmeline said. Then she suddenly thought of someone. “What about your wife? Wouldn’t it be better to keep the resources for yourself?”

Tony’s expression dimmed. “We’ve just divorced, so involving her in this isn’t an option. Emmeline, you’re the most suitable candidate. I hope you won’t decline.”

“Alright then.” Emmeline didn’t press further and nodded in agreement.

Around 10 a.m., Emmeline asked Tony to accompany her to the City Department Store to take a look around. Since she was working on a proposal, she needed to have a reference. point and get a clear idea.

She had already visited the first floor last time. This time, there were no more goods or salespeople at the counters. The entire building’s operation was now in the hands of the current contract holder.

“The current contractor is named Vernon Chester, and he’s involved in the electronics. industry,” Tony informed Emmeline. “He’s well-acquainted with big bosses from Kirkwall, Goulcrest, and Peltragow. It’s said that they have stakes in this building.”

After spending the afternoon, Emmeline had a rough outline of her proposal. There were still many details to fill in, such as advertising visuals and budgets.

“Let’s leave it at this for today. I’ll come back tomorrow,” she said.

Seeing that it was already 5 p.m. and she hadn’t returned home for a day and night, Emmeline was worried that her parents would be concerned.

“Let Benjamin give you a ride home,” Tony suggested.

“The bus is so convenient; I shouldn’t trouble Benjamin further.” Emmeline shook her head.

Tony could only agree with her decision.

At 5.25 p.m., Emmeline was on the bus when she received a call from Abel. She hesitated for a moment and let the call ring until it ended without answering.

The phone rang again, and this time, Emmeline couldn’t bear it any longer, so she answered in a low voice, “Abel.”

“Where are you?”

“On the bus.”

“Why didn’t you answer the call earlier?”

Emmeline fell silent.

“Emma, haven’t I told you that no matter what the situation, you should always answer the phone?” Abel suppressed his annoyance and worry. “Not answering the phone can make people anxious.”

“Oh.”
