"Which of the three largest entertainment companies in New York is Mr. Alexander affiliated with?" Jonathan posed straightforwardly, given that the conversation was already open. "Are you looking for a company for her? Let me see…" Augustus pondered out loud: “The owner of Star Entertainment is Erasmus, who is friendly with the Wang family. He and I share no connections. The owner of Myth Entertainment is Osmund Connor, who's the head of a large conglomerate and has little influence. Even if you reach out to him, it will be futile for Gladys!" "Lastly, there's Galaxy Media, whose owner, Sherwin, has an excellent relationship with Bernie. But Jonathan, it would be easy for Galaxy Media to take Gladys in. However, if Gladys's news isn't cleared, even if Sherwin respects Bernie, she won't have resources for further development." "This is an era where news can explode easily. Once the public labels Gladys as a woman of ill repute, no matter how much backing she receives from the big bos

"Please wait for a moment. I will call the chairman’s assistant.” she quickly retreated to her desk to dial the chairman’s office. These visitors seemed less than amicable. She was at a loss. The best course of action was to pass this matter higher up, removing herself from further involvement. A few minutes later, a thirtyish woman dressed in a bright vest suit rushed out. "Hello, sir. I am Faith Byner, the chairman’s assistant. May I have your name?" "What does it have to do with you? Where is Erasmus? He was supposed to have caught the last flight back last night. How is it that he is nowhere to be seen? Is he still in outer space or something?" Brian retorted, clearly frustrated. He was beginning to get annoyed. Erasmus should have been here by now if everything was according to schedule. And yet, there was no sign of him. While the issue wasn't catastrophic, ignoring Brian's instruction was a grave matter. He wasn’t so old that he couldn’t make himself heard. How dare the

Gladys looked up into Jonathan's eyes. She asked seriously: “How do you want me to thank you?" The many troubles of late seemed insurmountable to Gladys. Yet, Jonathan was able to solve all her problems with ease. He even went to meet Baldwin Wise of the Wise family. And Brian of the Wang family. In the end, it took the intervention of a national pillar to completely smooth things over. It was not an easy task for her to regain her innocence. So, she knew just how much Jonathan had helped her. Even so, he had not made a single request. That's why Gladys was moved, unsure of how to repay him. However, Jonathan smiled warmly, saying: “Who needs your gratitude? You must be quite weary after going through so much, right? Don't dwell on it. Take a few days off to rest and await the official news." Before Gladys could respond, Jonathan hailed a passing taxi. "Get in!" Gladys stared at him for a while before getting into the cab. They waved their farewells, and the taxi was off

"Ten skewers of heart, a portion of lobster, old tripe, and half a kilo of beef..." They arrived at a barbecue restaurant, where Daisy ordered a slew of dishes in one go before remembering to add: “And a crate of beer, please, boss." Once the owner had gone, Jonathan smiled and said: “Can you eat that much? Plus, barbecue isn't good for you. It can lead to heat and acne. Aren't you afraid?" "Eating it occasionally won't hurt, and my colleagues at work don't like these kinds of food. Eating alone is boring, so I come here infrequently. Today, I will indulge a bit. Is there a problem?" "Worst case scenario, I'll have a few pimples. I'm already pretty. I don't have to worry." With her calm demeanor, Daisy appeared rather self-important. It wasn't that Daisy was self-important but that she knew her advantages well. She was indeed excellent. "Ok, I'm ready to accompany the beauty tonight. Today, you can indulge without worrying about the after-effects. I'll take responsibility for g

But now that he had returned, Sloane had no choice but to confront the reality. Outwardly, she was cordial because if Derek could become the family head, it would be beneficial. As a woman, she might not vie for power but at least she could enjoy better treatment. However, if Derek lacked the capacity, she would not concede defeat. Now that her father had brought it up, she had begun to ponder. Fear seemed to creep into her eyes as she gazed at her father. What if their grandfather had deliberately brought a false nephew home as a safeguard against someone? And that someone could only be Andrew - her father! At this thought, Sloane was gripped by fear. Indeed, such was the life of a wealthy family! Suspicion between father and daughter. "Father, have you sent someone to San Francisco for investigation yet?" "Alright, but it seems that my grandfather and the Northern military have sent people there, so no one has a chance to investigate Derek's identity, which is why my father
