Chapter 120
If Yvette hadn’t returned, the engagement with Wilson would’ve fallen to Yasmin. Yasmin could’ve been Wilson’s fiancée!
Yasmin was overwhelmed with jealousy. Her gaze became increasingly malicious.
She would never let Yvette become the future Mrs. Quinn!
As soon as Yvette left the house, she received a call from Jake.
“Boss, I’ve found out what you asked me to investigate last time. It turns out the Murray family has arranged an engagement with the Quinn family!”
At this point, Jake couldn’t help but think of the 50–billion–dollar compensation from the Quinn family. He asked hesitantly, “Boss, do we still need to pay the Quinn family to break off the engagement?”
The ability to compensate 50 billion dollars in one go showed that the Quinn family wasn’t short of money. It would cost a fortune to break off the engagement.
Yvette pursed her red lips. “No need
“What?” Jake was shocked on the other end of the phone. “So, does the engagement with the Quinn family stay?”
Yvette replied, “For now, it stays.”
“What do you mean, Boss? Have you taken a fancy to Wilson? Although he is decent–looking and quite wealthy, you can’t just let him blind you…”
While listening to Jake’s agitated voice, Yvette calmly interrupted, “Don’t overthink it. Alright, I have to go to school now. Talk to you later.” On the other end of the line, Jake stared at the disconnected call and fell into deep thought. For some reason, he felt like Yvette would be snatched away.
When Yvette was about to put away her phone, she received a text message
from Het
Hank
“Ashton is throwing a tantrum again and refuses to continue shooting the commercial. The penalty fee is five million dollars. Should we pay the penalty fee or force him to continue the shooting?”
“If it were any other talent, Hank would’ve undoubtedly chosen the second option. However, Ashton was the top celebrity in the entertainment industry and Starlight Entertainment’s biggest cash cow.
Hank was worried pushing too hard might upset Ashton and cause him to jump ship. Thus, he sought advice from Yvette.
“Make him continue the shooting, ” Yvette texted back nonchalantly.
In her eyes, no matter how famous a celebrity was, they couldn’t interfere with her company’s profit.
Hank replied promptly, “Understood.”
At the filming set, Ashton was utterly enraged “All capitalists are slave drivers! You all are heartless!”
He added, “I don’t care! I’m going back to Jubilile City to see my younger sister now! None of you can stop me!”
Back then, his family had opposed his entry into the entertainment industry. They even used the Murray family’s influence to make things difficult for him to force him to quit. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have signed an indenture with Starlight Entertainment.
Thought of the heartless president of Starlight Entertainment made Ashton grit his teeth even harder.
It was bad enough that the company had been making him work like a mule. But when he was eager to see his sister now, they piled him with
even more work.
He was mad at the president for being so heartless. If it weren’t for that, he would’ ve gone home to see his sister long ago!
Sear had been texting him daily to brag about their sweet and obedient younger sister. It had driven Ashton insanely jealous. Il Ashton ever found our the identity of his employer, he swore to teach his heartless employer a good lesson!
