Javier remained a straight face upon hearing that. However, his eyes betrayed a myriad of
emotions.
“Oh! I heard about this before. Come on! It has been so many years, and someone still
brought it up. Don’t
they have better things to do?” someone commented
Another person commented, “I’m sure it’s jealousy! They can’t stand seeing the attention
she gets on her
birthday. Besides, she married a wealthy man and is beautiful!
“They can’t stand all that, so they resorted to digging up old dirt. It’s an everyday
occurrence.
“It happens all the time with celebrities managed by my entertainment company. They’re
always
backstabbing and spreading rumors for no good reason!”
Javier pursed his lips and furrowed his brows slightly. Even though they were just
expressing their opinions without mentioning anyone, he still felt an indescribable
discomfort.
“Mr. Taylor is truly a loyal person.”
“Indeed. After all, Lyla was an actress and on! gave birth to a daughter. Yet, Mr. Taylor
treats her well. It
truly speaks volumes about his character!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing those words, the guests nodded in agreement. On the other hand, Dominic
smiled
awkwardly. He could not help but feel resentful.
He h
thought by bringing up this matter, people would see Winston as a laughingstock. To
Dominic’s dismay, his plan backfired.
To make things worse for him, the attendees even praised Winston. He thought they were
status-
conscious, trying to bootlick Winston at every opportunity.
Javier looked up to check the time. Then, he glanced around. Nevertheless, Jasper was
nowhere to be
seen.
“Mr. Javier, why isn’t Mr. Beckett here? This is an important occasion, after all,” Dominic
asked tentatively.
Javier replied, “Oh, he’ll be here soon.”
“Is that so? That’s great!” Dominic exclaimed as his eyes lit up.
In the next rond, his tone became more polite. “Our group is currently working on a
promising project
It’s related to environmental causes, something the country is supporting.
“Jonah has assigned this project to me, and right now, I’m looking for partners.”
Then, Dominic briefly explained the project to Javier. The latter nodded in response,
showing some
interest.
“My daughter, Renee, had recently come up with two great collaboration proposals. She’ll
be joining us
later,” Dominic added.
“Shall I find a place for us after the cocktail party? Why don’t you and Mr. Beckett join us?
Then, we can discuss more about it. How does that sound?” he asked with a smile.
Javier frowned. “Your daughter?”
ves. I only have a
daughter. Her name is Renee Taylor. She’s the same age as my brother’s daughter,
Alyssa,” answered Dominic.
“But she’s younger than Alyssa by four months. She studied at the top university in
Hestrya and received a full scholarship every year. She even worked as a translator for
Hestrya’s president.
“Upon returning to the country, she joined KS Group with her capabilities. She has always
been working as the director of product design,” Dominic proudly introduced his daughter.
It was as if he was marketing a high-end product he had personally crafted.
However, the guests nearby scoffed silently after hearing what he said. They knew that
Dominic’s
daughter, Renee, did not need to possess any qualifications to join KS Group. Who did he
think he was
fooling?
Javier did not know how to respond and reluctantly commented, “Oh, what an outstanding
young lady.”
“It’s settled then! I’ll make arrangements after the cocktail party!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJavier was slightly taken aback. After all, he did not agree to meet Dominic after that.
Although he was not young, he was far from senile. Javier could see that Dominic was just
using the
business meeting as an excuse.
The real purpose was to introduce Panee to him and create an opportunity for Jasper to
meet her.
“Mr. Dominic, my father hasn’t answered yet. How could he have settled anything with
you?”
As soon as the crowd heard the volce, they were momentarily stunned. They immediately
tumed their
heads to look.
lasner, with his cold and handsome face, strode toward them. His dark eyes appeared
imposing but
remained cool and indifferent.
Jasper, what took you so long to get here? Javier could not help but complain. Yet hely
Dom’s smile froze momentarily. Just as he was about to speak, Jasper said coldly. “Mr.
Dominic
you genuinely want to talk about business, you can choose a more appropriate time,
