Emelia held up three fingers of her right hand, "What does this amount, Ms. Reed, sound to you?" "Thirty million dollars?" Emelia was stunned at Scarlett's words, "Thirty million dollars, Ms. Reed, all you have to do is to ask M r. Shaw for a favor. And you're askingfor thirty million dollars. You're asking for too much, aren't you?" Scarlett looked at her, "Ms. Esparza, are you trying to getto settle this whole thing for $3 million?" Then Scarlett paused, as Emelia had just done, "Ms. Esparza, you're looking down upon yourself. Is your future worth only three million dollars" Scarlett asked with sarcasm.

Emelia was not stupid. Tiffany had been kicked out by Raymond, so what good could her words do in front of Raymond? But Scarlett was different. After all, this matter started because of Scarlett.
Emelia had no other choice but to endure the humiliation and beg Scarlett, "Ms. Reed, | can't get $30 million for now. We-" 'Oh, no money, huh?" Scarlett didn't want to waste any more twith her," Ms. Esparza, I'm sorry. Do you know how much money | make in a day?" Emelia frowned, "How much do you make a day?" "Not much. Just a few million, maybe." Scarlett gave a conservative estimate for the sake of rigor.
Emelia laughed, "Ms. Reed, you are just saying." Scarlett smiled at her. She pointed to her car and said, "Ms. Esparza, do you know how much this car costs?" Emelia didn't know much about cars. She looked at the badge. She knew it was a renowned brand. "A million dollars or so." "Ms. Esparza, you can check the market price of this car." Then Scarlett opened the car door and got into the car. Before she left, Scarlett gave Emelia a hint, "By the way, Ms. Esparza, this is the model number of my car." Then Scarlett stepped on the gas. The car lurched away.
Emelia frowned. She contempt the fact that it was just a car and Scarlett boasted it so much.

She felt like when she cto Scarlett, she was not here to ask for help but to make a fool of herself! At that moment, Emelia's cell phone rang. It was Helen. Emelia thought things might have turned around. She answered the phone in a hurry, "Helen, are things--" "Have you seen Scarlett? Hurry back from Scarlett's house! Raymond's secretary just called. She said that i f you go to Scarlett, Raymond will make you lose all your chances not only at hbut also abroad!" Hearing Helen's words, Emelia's face turned pale. She knew she was completely finished this time.
