The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 657

Recently, the presale of Edith Hills had everyone buzzing, and Emerson made sure to keep Ronan in the loop about everything.

Ronan was lounging comfortably on his couch, a playful grin tugging at his lips as he eyed Emerson.

"So, what does your future father-in-law think of you?" Ronan asked with a teasing tone.

"Come on, don't start with the father-in-law talk. Nothing's set in stone," Emerson shot back, rolling his eyes.

Feigning a sudden realization, Ronan quipped, "Ah, what about your Uncle Liu then?"

"Naturally, he thinks I'm great. Everyone does," Emerson replied with a smirk.

"Is he thinking about buying a house?" Ronan inquired.

"He said he'd consider it, but a crafty old fox like him won't show his hand easily."

"Let's get the word out to the Sales Department. Tell them Jeffrey's interested in one of our properties and likely to buy. That way, when they're pitching to potential buyers, they can drop a few hints," Ronan suggested, his eyes sparkling with mischief.

Emerson paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Bro, it would be a crime against the universe if you weren't rolling in money."

Just then, Cordelia descended the stairs.

"What are you guys talking about?" she asked, catching the tail end of their conversation about Edith Hills.

"Just saying how clever my bro is. I'm about to call the Sales Department," Emerson explained.

"I'll make a call to HR," Ronan added casually.

Noticing Cordelia's gaze, Ronan tilted his head and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Oh, nothing. Just thinking what a great boss you are," Cordelia replied with a smile.

Perhaps Emerson, being so close to the situation, couldn't see it. Or maybe he did see it and was moved to tears nonetheless. After all, who wouldn't be deeply touched in such circumstances?

At the sales office, the agents were busy telling potential buyers, "The execs from MillstoneXXXX have their eyes on a couple of units here and are likely to make a decision soon. They were just asking the CFO for the paperwork a few days ago."

Hearing this, the clients thought, If the execs are buying here, we should too. Suddenly, the units were selling like hotcakes, demand skyrocketing.

Meanwhile, Emerson's pitch to Jeffrey was simple but effective: "Those units are almost sold out!"

This only made Jeffrey more anxious...
