Chapter 430: I’m The Boss Of The Entertainment Industry!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor Atias Studios
As they were talking, another boy entered the room, clad in white and carrying
a birthday cake in hand.
“May I ask who is Mr. Colton Henley?” the boy asked.
Colton said, “I am.”
The boy maneuvered over and handed the cake he was carrying to Colton. “Mr.
Miller, this is the birthday cake you ordered from our store.”
Pindrop silence ensued, and only then did Colton believe that the luxurious
1.5-meter high cake was realy ordered by Lauren’s husband!
Besides, the cake that he ordered was not even one-fifth of the height of the
cake! How could he not feel embarrassed! The birthday cake he ordered was
nothing compared to Jordan!
Meanwhile, Jordan did not continue to embarrass Colton. He didn’t know
Lauren’s classmates at all. However, since Lauren was willing to come to the
classmates’ reunion, it meant that she still had a good relationship with this
group of classmates. Otherwise, given Lauren’s family background, how could
she possibly attend the classmates’ reunion?
Nowadays, classmates’ reunions were basically meaningless and only initiated
by those who were doing relatively well. The purpose of the gathering was to
either show off or to find out where their classmates were working, in case
they could use each other in the future.
Jordan didn’t want to disturb Lauren’s gathering and was just there to give her
a surprise. Since he had already delivered the surprise, Jordan said, “Honey, go
ahead with your gathering. I’l head off first.”
The reason he did not stay was because the classmates’ gathering was his
wife’s private event and there were lots of male classmates there. If Jordan
stayed, it would look like he didn’t trust his wife and had to keep a close eye on
her.
He did not want to give Lauren that kind of feeling again. He wanted to tell
Lauren that he trusted her completely.
However, seeing that Jordan was about to leave, Colton interjected, “Since
Lauren’s husband is here, why don’t we all sit down and have a meal together.
Don’t go.”
Likewise, her female classmates quickly asked him to stay behind. “Yeah, come
join us. We don’t have many people here anyway. There are still lots of empty
seats here.”
Jordan looked at Lauren in a bid to ask for her opinion.
Since Lauren didn’t object, Jordan said, “Okay, Ill pour Lauren some wine
then.”
Lauren smiled and a few of them returned to their seats. Colton sat in the
middle, clearly the most domineering one.
After sitting down, Lauren introduced each person to Jordan one at a time, and
when it came to Colton, he deliberately pointed out his identity as the class
president, as well as his father’s job and position as a government official.
Jordan could also tell that Colton had the best career among all of them, and
was also the one who liked bragging the most.
After being introduced to each other, Colton suddenly asked Jordan, “Dude,
which unit do you work in?
A male classmate laughed and said, “Colton, you shouldn’t rub salt in others
wounds. Didn’t Lauren just say that her husband is jobless?
With a look of embarrassment, Lauren said self-deprecatingly, “Yes, my
husband and I don’t have any proper jobs, unlike you guys who work in big
corporations who hold high statuses and great power.”
Colton immediately put down his cutlery and said, Lauren, that’s not right
You and your husband are different. Everyone in DC knows that as long as
Lauren wants to work, she can enter any unit she wants. All it takes is one
word. But your husband seems to be... It’s okay, Jordan, you seem to play the
piano very well and your voice is nice too. How about I get you a job at the bar
as a singer?A hundred bucks a night for singing a few songs from eight to
eleven at night. It’s not tiring either.”
A male classmate laughed and said, “Yeah, you can make three grand a month.
That sounds like quite a good job.”
Colton also laughed and said, T should help a classmate out.”
Jordan could tell that Colton, the class president, was deliberately making him
feel embarrassed.
In all honesty, Jordan couldn’t be bothered to go to work. Even if he really
couldn’t find a job, the Howards would still be able to give him an allowance of
at least three grand a month.
Colton said, “We all know that the Howards are rich. You don’t lack those few
thousands of dollars but as a man, I still think you can come out to make
money on your own. What’s wrong with using a woman, right?”
Another male classmate said, “Brother, although you are Lauren’s live-in
husband, we and Lauren have been former classmates for years. If you face any
difficulty, you can tell us directly”
“These hypocritical guys
Jordan was extremely displeased. Lauren’s female classmates were not too bad
but her male classmates who seemed to treat Jordan well on the surface were
in fact taking every chance to insult him.
They kept mentioning the fact that Jordan was a live-in husband.
If it were any other place and occasion, this gang would have long been thrown
out by Salvatore and the others. However, it was his wife’s birthday and also
the day of her reunion with her classmates. Jordan didn’t want to mess up
again.
Besides, he suddenly remembered that the most important thing to do now
was to complete his business trial!
Indeed, he wanted to have a high status in the country and the industry he
chose was the entertainment industry!
Hence, Jordan looked at Colton and said, “Thank you for your kindness.
Actually, I have some formal business to attend to.”
Lauren held onto Jordan’s hand below the table before shaking her head at him.
She thought that Jordan must be wanting to say that he was working as a
security officer or a courier delivery or a takeout deliverer.
The Steeles were rich and had always felt that all jobs were equal. There was
nothing wrong with admitting to that. However, Lauren did not want Jordan to
tell her classmates that he was working as a security officer or some other
lowly job.
The classmates had always treated Lauren as a goddess who was put on the
pedestal and once they knew that Lauren married a man that was inferior to
them, they wouldn’t be able to take it.
“Don’t
Lauren looked at Jordan.
Jordan could already tell what Lauren meant by stopping him.
“Hah, Honey, do you think I was going to say T’m a security officer or a courier
deliverer? Don’t worry, your husband is not going to embarrass you in front of
your classmates!
However, Jordan spoke up and said to everyone, “Tm in the entertainment
industry.
Everyone was shocked.
You’re the boss of a film and television company?
“So impressive. No wonder he’s so talented. It turns out that he’s the owner of
an entertainment company!”
Listening to the female classmates’ compliments, Colton was upset and he
didn’t believe that Jordan was telling the truth!
The reason being Colton realized that even Lauren was shocked.
It was obvious Jordan was lying and bragging!
Colton asked, “Buddy, since you are the boss of a film and television company
and a business tycoon in the entertainment industry, there must be many
artistes signed to your company, right?”
Jordan nodded and said, “Yes, there are quite a few.”
Colton smiled and asked, “Who are they?
Jordan thought for a moment and said, “Maggie Stone!”
