Chapter 388
Maria turned to Jackson. “What do you mean by this?”
Jackson smirked. “I want her to sit and talk with me. If she doesn’t, you might as well shut down your studio.”
His attitude was arrogant, completely dismissing Maria and Aveline. It was clear his target was Aveline.
Maria’s expression darkened.
Aveline stepped forward and asked, “Sir, I don’t believe we know each other.”
Jackson replied, “Doesn’t matter. I know you. Come, sit here.”
He patted his thigh.
Laughter erupted around them. Jackson’s friends and bodyguards watched Aveline with malicious intent, while the other guests at the party stayed away, clearly aware of Jackson’s identity and preferring not to get involved.
Aveline’s face also darkened.
This man seemed to have a powerful background. She lowered her eyes slightly, then took out her phone and dialed a number.
Jackson scoffed, “What? Calling for help? I want to see who you’re calling. In Cloudflare City, who dares to interfere with what I want to do!”
“Lucas,” Aveline’s calm voice rang out. “I’m in trouble. Where are you?
Her voice wasn’t loud, but everyone around hear
Jackson’s face stiffened. “WE
One of the men beside him said, “Boss, she said Lucas…”
Jackson slapped the man’s head Nonsense! Who does she think she is? How could she know Lucas Tudor?”
The others stayed silent, puzzled by Aveline’s claim.
Jackson walked over and snatched Aveline’s phone. “Stop
pretending. Either you obey, or you and your studio can get out of Cloudflare City!”
He hung up the phone, completely dismissing the idea that Aveline might actually know Lucas, the CEO of DK Group and the last heir of the city’s most powerful family.
Even if she had worked at DK Group, she had resigned. How could Lucas possibly care about a former employee? Ridiculous!
