Zayn found it hilarious, so he laughed. “Did I even have to provoke him? Clearly, he was the one who littered. With the kind of qualities he has, no wonder he’s got negative news about him circulating around.”Cristian clenched his fists and scowled. “This is outrageous! Who gave you the permission to criticize me? I think you’re trying to court death right now!”After he said that, the two bodyguards behind him walked forwards and surrounded Zayn. On the other hand, the manager seemed to be muttering something silently, “Fine, have it your way. I don’t care about which media platform you’re from, but I’m giving you your last warning right now. Hand over the recording pan, or else!”Zayn could not be bothered to waste his breath on them, so he directly said, “You’re crazy. I don’t have a recording pen on me, neither am I paparazzi. You’re here to discuss a collaboration, aren’t you? Don’t bother heading up. I’m rejecting you guys right now. Violet Vision will never collaborate with
Zayn was chuckling as if he had just heard the world’s greatest joke. ‘I was actually looking forward to seeing the look on their faces when James addresses me later as the chairman.’When the manager noticed that he was still capable of laughter, she grumbled, “You’re looking death straight in the eye, yet here you are, laughing like a child. There’s truly not an ounce of shame in you…”Her eyes were sparkling with excitement the moment she directed her attention behind Zayn. The bitter expression that plagued her features was replaced with an admiring gaze. Winking at Cristian, she brushed past Zayn and paced forwards with a spring in her step as she chirped jovially. “My goodness, James. You actually came down here to welcome us. We’re so honored.”James had a cheerful smile on his face as he approached the two of them with three other superiors in tow. He responded goodnaturedly, “Haha, Shannon. You and Cristian took the time to come all this way, so it’s only natural that I’d s
‘No, we must be hallucinating! This can’t be true.’Zayn nodded slightly and said to James, “Were you the one who intended to bring Cristian over?”James had learned what had happened from Cristian and Shannon, so there was no way he would admit to it at that moment. He hurriedly shook his head and said, “No…no, I wasn’t the one who wanted to bring them over. It was they themselves who wished to discuss a collaboration with Violet Vision.”Instead of exposing his lie, Zayn merely looked past James and casually glanced at Cristian, whose face was ashen. He said, “I’m very dissatisfied with Cristian. Violet Vision is forbidden from having any sort of business relationship with him. Otherwise, I’ll be very displeased. Is that understood?”“Yes, understood!” James nodded vigorously. “From today onward, Violet Vision will blacklist Cristian and is forbidden from collaborating with him!”Only after Zayn had left did Cristian, Shannon, and the others regain their senses. They exchanged g
“Is Cristian really coming?” asked Faye, a little tempted.“Of course! Why would I lie to you? Moses is doing very well at the moment. Hiring Cristian is certainly within his capabilities.”Faye considered for a moment before saying, “Alright then. I’ll give it a think.”“What’s there to think about? Just come! We haven’t gotten together for a long time now. I imagine you’d be better off not bringing your family, after all…Hehe, you know why! Right then, I won’t disturb you any further. I’ve still got to call our other schoolmates.”After she hung up the phone, Faye had a hesitant expression on her face. She was actually quite intrigued. Firstly, it has been a long time since she had met her schoolmates. Now that someone was finally organizing a reunion, she should participate. Coincidentally, she did not have any urgent matters to attend to.Furthermore, the most important thing was that Cristian was going to be singing, making it exponentially more enticing!Truth be told, Faye
“Sure, no problem.” Zayn nodded his head ferociously. He then took out his cell phone and sent James a text message to postpone his dinner gathering for that night.‘Speaking of which, ever since I took over Violet Vision, we haven’t organized a proper dinner gathering for our company. Many employees still don’t know what I look like. The artists that signed with us have particularly wanted such an event to get to know their newly appointed chairman. They’re only hoping to butter me up, and even if that fails, they’d probably be happy with just the thought of me knowing who they are.’This was especially true for those young female artists. They were all cooking up some kind of scheme to get on the chairman’s good side. Violet Vision’s reach was steadily increasing by the day. Therefore, if they were able to get in his good graces and utilize the company’s resources to give them a bit of a push, they would definitely become famous.After James had received Zayn’s text message, he wa
Thus, Zayn had to go home to change into the casual and messy clothes that he normally wore. Since they had been worn the whole day and had yet to be washed, they were crumpled pretty badly. In fact, some spots appeared quite filthy, so Zayn asked, “Are you sure you don’t want me to wear a suit?”“Stop talking nonsense.” Faye glared impatiently and sized him up for a few seconds before finally smiling. “I still think you look better in this.”Zayn was a little speechless. ‘What exactly is she seeing? I clearly looked better in a suit.’Faye’s class reunion was being held at a medium-sized resort in Apollo City, so it was anything grand or expensive. However, organizing it proved to be quite costly, approximately 600 dollars per person on average. They were a class of 40 people, making the total cost a few thousand dollars. Furthermore, there was also a rumor that Moses had been generous enough to bear all the expenses himself. That was why the reunion was able to be held so successf
Staring at Faye, the fatso’s beady eyes went wide, glimmering with wonder and infatuation. When Faye saw him, she gasped, “Fred Flint? Is that you?”Fatty recognized Faye as well when she called his name. “Faye Carter?!”“Yeah.” Faye nodded with a happy smile. “I thought you wouldn’t be able to recognize me anymore.”“Of course I do. How could I not?!” Fatty Fred checked Faye out, his eyes practically glued to her as he gulped discreetly. Long gone was his earlier belligerence and haughtiness. He patted himself down to look presentable and went to shake her hand. “You’ve changed so much. It’s been years and you’ve come back looking gorgeous. I thought I would be bumping into a celebrity tonight.”Faye’s smile grew wider at Fred’s compliment, but she hesitated when he extended his hand. She disliked the perverted way he leered at her. Just as she was caught in that dilemma, Zayn stepped up and shook Fred’s hand on her behalf.“Nice to meet you, so you’re Faye’s ex-schoolmate, huh?
Moses briskly strode over to Faye and looked at her longingly. “Fifi, it’s been so long. I didn’t expect you to remember me.”A little embarrassed from all his staring, Faye blushed and nodded with a smile, avoiding Moses’ gaze.Zayn noticed Faye’s unusual reaction and wondered if she shared a secret past with this man called Moses. To be honest, he was a little unsettled by it. No man wanted his wife to be caught in an entanglement. Nonetheless, he did not display his jealousy directly. This was Faye’s class reunion, and he was going to let her enjoy the night regardless.Zayn scrutinized Moses discreetly, deducing he was a successful man with a decent enough background. It was obvious from both the way he oozed confidence and the deference that his escorts demonstrated.Fred spoke up, “Moses, you came just in time. You were the class rep, so come be our judge. Faye’s husband drove blindly and rammed into my BMW. He should take full responsibility, shouldn’t he?!”Catching the ke
