The excitement in Odette's eyes was almost impossible to contain: "And... how will the payment be made?" "In full." Norris hadn't expected his daughter to seriously consider buying a mansion, let alone have the money ready for it! He was about to speak, but before he could, he felt a sharp pinch at his side - Madge had given him a twist. "Whatever our daughter wants to do, just watch and keep your opinions to yourself," she chided.

Odette, with trembling hands, took another credit card and frantically prepared a pile of documents- "Miss, are you really sure about this? If there are no problems, I can process your payment now." Roseanne nodded. "Go ahead." It was as if Odette was moving through a dream as she methodically completed all the steps. Only after watching Roseanne sign the purchase agreement and hearing the finance department confirm the transfer of five million dollars did the surreal feeling begin to slowly dissipate.
Oh god! Had she really just stumbled upon such incredible luck?! Selling a mansion just days into the job?! And not just any mansion, but the prproperty! Five million dollars-her luck was unbelievable! Odette's grin was so wide she looked almost foolish, until a scowl caught her eye, prompting her to momentarily compose herself. But within seconds, she couldn't help but sneak in another smile. A commission in the hundreds of thousands, who wouldn't smile? The woman who, just a moment ago, had been all smirks and scorn, was now pale, her eyes wide in disbelief. "Odette, what-what were you about to say...?" "Oh, Valery, I was just saying that Ms. Cole's card is indeed a black card. And just now in the VIP lounge, I had already helped Ms. Cole choose her preferred model and negotiated the price. All that was left was to sign the contract." The woman's lips quivered: "She-she really bought it?" "Absolutely! The contract is signed." Could there be any doubt? Not bothered about what the woman was thinking and not really wanting to give more explanation, Roseanne just breezed right by her. "Dad, Mom, we've had enough, haven't we? Let's bounce and start packing, okay?" Norris was utterly confused. "Pack-pack what?" "Obviously, we won't be moving our furniture and appliances, but we need to bring our clothes and personal items to the new house, right?" Norris dumbly nodded. "Yes, yes, that makes sense..." But where did this new house cfrom? It wasn't until they walked out of the real estate office that Norris' confusion started to clear up.
Back at home, he finally managed to gather his thoughts, sitting on the couch and nervously rubbing his hands on his thighs before finally speaking up- "Anne, you bought a house?" Roseanne nodded.
"A mansion?" She nodded again.
"Paid in full?" She responded with another nod.

Norris was silent for a full ten seconds before speaking, "@buying a house dianabig/deal, how cyou didn't discuss it with us first?"
Roseanne understood her father's concern and explained, "We've lived in our old house for so many years, constantly fixing it up. Isn't it normal to want a change?" "I didn't say anything because I wanted to surprise you." Norris still looked worried.
"How much... how much did it cost?" Roseanne's gaze flickered, and she held up a hand, showing five fingers.
Norris knew she meant "five million," given it was a mansion and not likely to be just fifty thousand. Even though he had braced himself for the figure, the reality still made him shiver.
"Where did you get that kind of money? Credit card fraud?" Or maybe...
