Chapter 251 She's Ruthless

Joey soon received Yvonne's picture. She was a gorgeous lady with an aloof air. Her skin was fair and she looked like an agreeable person. Joey tossed the situation to the back of her mind after she saved her picture.The next morning, as she was eating breakfast downstairs, she unexpectedly ran into Kent and Zachary."Ms. Linton, there aren't many seats left. Come, let's share a table." Kent immediately waved when he saw her. He was extremely friendly.As she hesitated, Melvin's voice rang out in the restaurant."Morning, beautiful! I'm right on time. Come on, I'll get you some tastier breakfast. The breakfast here isn't good.""Alright." She approached him with a smile in her eyes.Although Zachary's face remained impassive, he gripped his utensils so tightly that the veins showed."That brat!" Kent flushed with anger. A moment later, he felt aggrieved. "Joey showed us no mercy.""Pay the bill," ordered Zachary. He stood up immediately.Melvin, who was back on his home tur

Chapter 252 The Plan to Buy the Pearls

Joey unwittingly shifted her gaze to Zachary. Was his question intentional?He tilted his head, gazed at her, and asked, "What?""Nothing." Joey looked away and continued staring at the scenery. His words caused her to reevaluate the relationship between herself and Samuel.If it was merely for mutual benefits, then she did not feel uncomfortable with Samuel's actions. She could brush it off as him making money.However, Samuel had asked if they were still friends.Those words were like getting a get-out-of-jail-free card from her in advance. Even if he did something unsavory, she had no choice but to swallow her displeasure, forgive him, and continue their friendship.After breakfast, Joey went to look at the stock over at Melvin's home. Zachary and Kent could not follow her, so they could only see the both of them off instead.Joey took Melvin's car to the seaside.The location was covered in piers. Many fishing boats were docked there, but what caught everyone's eye was the

Chapter 253 Contract Negotiations

Joey was not in a rush. When it came to business, those who rushed had already lost."Mr. Melvin, didn't you seek me out due to Chloe's reputation?" She lifted the cup of coffee and calmly blew on the steaming beverage.Their current collaboration was extremely beneficial to Melvin. Art was priceless. Joey's reputation could help elevate the pearls' price.He wouldn't suffer a loss even if he earned a little less.After all, once the pearls were incorporated into a design by Emmen, they would no longer be considered regular pearls. Instead, the pearls would be considered pearls acknowledged by craftsmen.Businesses seeking to borrow Chloe's influence would choose to buy his pearls.Melvin's pearls were good. Sadly, the business had yet to make a name for itself, hence it could not be sold at a good price.Nowadays, products needed to be endorsed by celebrities. Only then would it sell well. How else would influencers make money?"It's hard being a craftsman, huh?" He laughed as

Chapter 254 You're His Mistress

Kenneth looked down. His eyes flickered in the dark. There must be a lot of things going on in his mind.Joey smiled wryly. The night breeze picked up a random lock of hair, and Joey quickly tucked it back."If there's nothing else, I'll go in, then. Just call me when you figure it out." Then, Joey left."Joey …" Kenneth grabbed Joey's wrist out of desperation.But then he quickly let go and apologized for his indecency with a scarlet cheek. "Sorry, I didn't think it through. I didn't mean to touch you."I went back to Imperia because … because the Fulhams found their lost daughter. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you."Hanson had told Kenneth that they would apologize to Joey in person once the timing was right.But Kenneth couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't want to go on dates with Yvonne every day. He didn't like her."That's great news. Why apologize? I should thank you for taking this off my plate."It was stressful when you kept insisting that I was the lost Fulham. It wo

Chapter 255 Reminder

Zachary's room was directly opposite Joey's. As soon as he closed the door behind him, the commotion outside became more discernible."Room 6688 is over there.""Don't let her escape!"The mob cussed out threats after threats.Joey was aware of how crazy fans could be nowadays. Some ran fan clubs and enjoyed personal relationships with their idols, insomuch that they even slept with the celebrities.The distance between fans and superstars had never been closer."I did some digging and found out the whole truth. Are you going to clarify yourself or is Kenneth going to do it?" Zachary asked in a hushed voice as he ushered her to the couch."I don't think he'll say anything today. But Emmen needs to release a statement soon," commented Joey calmly as she dogged after Zachary.When a scandal broke out, the earlier a statement was released, the better."Kenneth might not have the last word on this matter." Zachary sat on the couch. His dark, marble eyes revealed nothing about his

Chapter 256 Never Left

Owing Samuel a favor had already made Joey feel bad enough. Imagine owing a favor to three different people—she would have a lot of repaying to do.However, there was no other alternative. If she showed up, it would only fuel the rumors.Joey moved aside, allowing Zachary to open the door and walk out.There was an uproar outside. The guards Melvin had brought with him not only snatched the paparazzi's cameras but also yelled at Kenneth's fans."What on earth is happening here?" Zachary's low, threatening voice appeared.Everyone froze. Silence filled the previously roaring corridor as everyone turned around to look at Zachary.His lanky frame and domineering air could not be ignored. His brows furrowed into tight knots as he scanned the mob.His eyes never lingered on anyone. Yet for those who were meeting Zachary for the first time, they could feel in their bones the coldness in Zachary's eyes. It feared them."Mr. Gray, I am terribly sorry about the commotion. These people s

Chapter 257 She's Not Mad

Kent chimed in, "What kind of seafood? I'd like some, too."Joey then gave Melvin a smile. "Do you mind if I give Kent some of the seafood you gave me?""Of course not! It's my present for you. You can do whatever you want with it," said Melvin in a carefree tone.Zachary ended the phone call and said, "Mr. Fuller, lead the way."Joey went back to her room to check if she had everything with her. Then, she went to grab her luggage.However, Zachary was closer to the luggage. He took it upon himself to carry Joey's luggage and followed behind Melvin.Joey wanted to say something, before deciding to join the group in silence."Let's leave by the rear entrance. Mr. Yates is popular, so we might run into another crowd of paparazzi." Melvin led the group to a staff-only elevator in the hotel."Sure," agreed Joey.As soon as they entered the elevator, Joey let loose and gave Melvin a piece of her mind."Mr. Fuller, you shouldn't have snatched the phones from the fans just now.

Chapter 258 Too Naive

Joey couldn't have made her message any clearer.Joey opted for a rational, methodical approach when faced with the current debacle because compared to Kenneth, her career was more important. She wouldn't risk her work because she owed Kenneth.The realization filled Kenneth with angst and panic.Unbeknownst to Joey, Kenneth didn't fall in love with her the moment they met in Yarwood City.She had already become a permanent fixture in his mind when Kenneth heard her ringtone for the very first time at a friend's place.However, back then, Zachary kept his marriage to Joey hidden. Kenneth couldn't know where Joey lived—he only knew she went by Chloe."I'm sorry," said Kenneth in a dry, trembling voice."Don't be. I know you didn't do this on purpose," said Joey. She didn't want Kenneth to feel too bad."Thank you. I'll handle this and make sure that it won't affect you." Kenneth said hastily and hung up.Zachary peered at Joey. He had a rough idea of what was exchanged by liste

Chapter 259 I trust Him

Inside the restroom, Joey said with a frown, "I know you're not sacrificing me, but we need to plan this out properly."They were all in the same industry. Making enemies wouldn't do anyone good."Why don't you negotiate with Kenneth's company again? Look, we have all the evidence. We have the full camera footage. Voiced, too."Kenneth's agency cannot throw you under the bus," said Selena seriously.Joey gave an affirmative mumble.After the call ended, Joey tried to call Selena again. However, Joey received the automated message that Selena was on another call.After several fruitless attempts, Joey gave up. She texted Selena and left the toilet.When Joey returned, Zachary posed a question. "Have you discussed with Ms. Sanders how you'll handle this?""Not yet," said Joey."You're too naive. Kenneth's agency is trying to waste your time as they find a way to exclude Kenneth from the narrative."They're telling you to discuss with them so that they can buy more time," explai

Chapter 260 Compromise

Zachary shot him a cold gaze.With a tone devoid of any warmth, he asked, "Are you implying that I'm inferior to Kenneth?"Kent quickly moved away, saying, "I'm analyzing it from Joey's perspective.""It seems you think that I'm not upset enough," Zachary replied indifferently before quickening his pace."Hey, wait for me!" Kent hurriedly caught up.Once on the plane, Joey took a seat and put on sunglasses and earphones, planning to sleep. Regarding how Kenneth would handle things and what his company would do, she had no way of knowing at the moment. But she was willing to spare Kenneth's company from embarrassment. It depended on whether Kenneth would disappoint her or not.Joey had a good sleep during the two-hour journey.When the plane landed, she was awakened by a flight attendant.Chuckling, Kent teased her, saying, "Everyone is on edge, yet you are sleeping so soundly.""Are you talking about me and Mr. Yates?" Joey rubbed her eyes, yawning."Who else would I be t
