Chapter 34 Sales Miracle
"I want this one."
"I want this one."
"This one for me."
"I'll take this one then."
The four people scrambled to be the first to say, not thinking at all.
Jocelyn was now increasingly unable to believe that everything in front of her was rea. What the hell was going on? So many people were coming over early in the morning to buy one building after another?
How come all the rich people are still gathering today? It must be because of the good publicity and the good location of her property? Was that why the rich people want to buy it for investment? That was the only possibility.
With a heart full of joy, Jocelyn took them to sign the contract.
Afterwards, they paid and left.
Each of them behaved neatly and without any delay.
On the other side, Gloria was so angry that she couldn't speak at all.
In just a short while, she had watched Jocelyn sell nineteen buildings, a huge step towards that goal of hers.
Was Jocelyn really going to make it? How could God be so against her?
After Jocelyn sent them off, she returned to the hall with a heart full of joy.
The lobby was still noisy, with many people being taken by the salesmen to pay for and sign contracts.
Everything had gone excessively well so far at the opening, which had lifted Jocelyn's spirits extraordinarily.
After looking around cheerfully, her gaze finally settled on Gloria, whose hateful look fell completely into Jocelyn's eyes.
Because she was overly busy, she no longer bothered to go up to Gloria and went straight to the crowd of people waiting to buy a house and introduce the new property to everyone. Gloria could not stand it anymore and left with a sullen face.
...
By eight o'clock in the evening, eighty percent of the properties in Faraday Apartments had been sold.
It set an opening record for the entire real estate market.
On Weibo, as well as on the front pages of all the major news boards, there was a scramble to report on this opening of Faraday Apartments.
The media were appreciative of Jocelyn who presided over it all.
In the living room of the Murphy family, Gloria and Sara were watching the news, suddenly a news popped up on their mobile phones about the opening of Faraday Apartments. Gloria, who was already in an unhappy mood, felt even more annoyed when she saw this.
She immediately threw her phone to the coffee table, gritting her teeth and cursing, "Why do I feel like this Jocelyn is on a roll? It's like God is on her side, what makes her create a sales miracle?"
Sara was so angry that she punched the sofa with her fist, "Maybe she just happened to be lucky this time, what's the big deal? Next time you have such an opportunity, you work harder."
"Yeah, it is just a lucky break this time, no big deal." With that said, Gloria picked up the glass of red wine and drank it all down with a gulp.
Seeing this, Sara quickly grabbed the glass of red wine and gently slapped Gloria's arm, scolding her, "Are you crazy? Since you're pretending to be pregnant, you should pretend well. What if your dad or someone else sees you drinking?"
Gloria raised his eyebrows slightly in displeasure, looked around coldly and said, "At this hour, everyone is already resting, who would see it? Besides, how could I have such bad luck?"
"You should be more careful!" Sara seriously admonished.
"Got it." Gloria grunted, confidently.
In the courtyard, a red Maserati supercar stopped steadily, and inside the car, Jocelyn pinched her brow in exhaustion before unbuckling her seatbelt.
She didn't get out of the car immediately, but sank back into the seat and relaxed herself.
She had been working overtime since the opening and had been constantly cheering herself up, but now that the target had been met and the energy had run out, she was as limp as a deflated ball. She had a celebratory dinner with a group of people underneath her in the evening because of the good sales results today, and she had drunk some wine.
After a while, she returned home with a body full of fatigue.
As soon as Jocelyn arrived home, Gloria and Sara gave her a blank stare at the same time.
The red wine glass with the red lipstick on the coffee table shone brightly in the light. Jocelyn took a deep look at the lipstick and then at Gloria's flaming red lips and went straight upstairs without making a sound.
At this time, Allen came down from upstairs happily, and when he saw Jocelyn, he immediately stepped forward and patted her shoulder with a proud face, saying, "Jocelyn, you were really great today, many o my friends have called to praise you."
Hearing Allen's praise, the jealousy in Sara and Gloria's hearts deepened, and both of them could not wait to tear Jocelyn apart.
"Thank you, Dad." Jocelyn said with a smile.
"You've done so well, after this property is sold, you can come directly to the sales department of the head office as the general manager." Allen added.
As soon as Gloria heard this, she stood up in dissatisfaction and complained, "Dad, aren't you biased? I can't even get into the company now, but after Jocelyn made a little bit of achievement, you even gave her such a high position as general manager of the sales department."
"I've told you before, you don't have a part in my company, you don't understand, do you?"
"And what your sister has done today is a little achievement? Why don't you do it too?"
"What else can you do but be jealous of your sister and embarrass me? Didn't you say before that if your sister sells one-half of the whole property, you'll have to live-stream upside down?"
"Why don't you hurry up and live-stream the upside-down? You are annoying as hell." Allen's face was stern.
Gloria was left speechless.
Faced with Allen's harsher accusations, Gloria's aggrieved tears were about to fall down.
He was really going overboard with her now, and she could no longer even feel his love for her at all.
Jocelyn had come back this time, and everything had changed! Dad wasn't like this before!
"When's the live broadcast? Let me know, I'll go watch." Jocelyn smiled brightly.
At this moment, Gloria wanted to curse her, but did not dare to, her heart was angry as if fire was burning, but she could only hold it in.
Her face was red and her hands were clenched into fists.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Sara stepped forward and shielded Gloria behind her, looking at Allen and said curtly, "Honey, don't be angry, Gloria is still young."
