The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1745

Perhaps Claire's expression was a bit too loud, because Yorick instantly read her mind.

"I just remembered your advice from last time—about me getting into the entertainment industry."

"I was wondering if you might have any connections."

Yorick felt intensely nervous as Claire just stared at him in silence.

Still, driven by his desperation to climb the social ladder, he forced a charming smile.

"I come from a very ordinary background. I don't have the network to just walk into the industry."

"If you could help me out, I promise I'll never forget it."

"You're focused on medicine, so you probably don't realize how impossibly hard it is for normal people to get a big break."

"What makes you think I can help?" Claire stared him down. "I'm just a normal student too."

"Didn't I already give you my advice?"

"You should go to an idol survival show."

"With your dance skills, dominating one of those boy band camps should be a walk in the park."

Yorick knew perfectly well that if he joined a show like that, he would definitely go viral.

But without powerful backers, viral fame just turned you into a stepping stone for the agencies' favored trainees.

He didn't just want fame; he wanted a patron to protect him.

If Claire could introduce him to the right people, his career would skyrocket.

Wasn't that infinitely faster than trying to seduce some random wealthy heiress?

Why was Yorick so convinced Claire had insane connections?

It all stemmed from Sloane Sterling's birthday party.

He had attended the party specifically to network and suck up to the VIPs.

The Sterling family might only be in the medical field, but their network was vast, and they had a patriarch whose influence reached the highest levels of Cabinda's elite.

A single word from a family like that could give him everything he ever wanted.

So, he had bent over backward trying to charm the Sterling family's little princess.

But Sloane hadn't given him the time of day.
