Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 60

The annual "green vision" charity banquet had invited major celebrities from various fields, including Jacob and some high-level scholars and media journalists.

As the luxurious crystal chandelier lights were shining, various kinds of evening dresses were served on these young men and women, each holding a glass full of champagne to refill their glasses, while a trace of flattery or complacency was revealed on their faces.

Kayla was the happiest one among them. She raised her chin high and complacently received the envious and jealous looks from others.

Because her companion tonight was the only son of the Gu family, a well-known family in the A City, Jacob.

Kayla didn't expect to attend the party with Jacob.

She had just signed an advertisement of a industry owned by the Gu family. When she came over to take photos, she happened to meet Jacob. She was determined to be rejected, so she invited him to a party. She thought it was impossible, because Jacob had never appeared with any artists in the entertainment industry before, but unexpectedly, he agreed!

Although Jacob had been looking listless from the beginning to the end, she didn't care about it. She believed that as long as the investors and producer knew that she was his female companion, she would succeed.

Everyone in this world wanted to be connected with Gu family.

"Mr. Jacob, this is the director, Melody Qiu. I will cooperate with him for my next movie. He is also the best new director of this year." Kayla introduced all of the directors she knew to Jacob one by one.

Jacob's family didn't have much business relationship with entertainment industry, so he didn't know these people before. But today, he even greeted them with a smile.

Repressing the frustration in his heart, Jacob offered the greetings to Kayla, "I'm a little tired. Would you like to take a seat over there?"

Kayla was talking with a famous director in the movie circle and she was unwilling to leave. Seeing this, Jacob said gently, "It's Okay. You go on with your talks. I'll wait for you over there."

Such considerate words made both Kayla and the movie director stunned.

Although Kayla knew that Jacob was just trying to be a gentleman, she still blushed.

'if I can marry into the Gu family, will I stop working so hard?'. This idea emerged in her mind.

Jacob strode towards Frank and sat down with his back to the banquet hall. His smile disappeared immediately.

With a cunning smile, Frank moved to a place next to Jacob's, and bumped into his shoulder. "When did you hook up with her, Jacob?"

"What do you mean?" Jacob took a sip of champagne.

Frank said, "Well, well, well, well, well. When did you hook up with Kayla? You boy, very efficient."

Jacob turned his head and glanced at Kayla. Then he said coldly to Frank, "just now."

"No way. You just knew each other. How can you ask her to be your female companion?" Frank looked at Jacob from head to toe, showing that he didn't believe Jacob. He said, "you can frighten others, but not me."

"That's true, I just met her a few days ago. She was working on a daily advertising for my family, and I happened to run into her. She invited me to be her male companion, and I agreed." Explained Jacob.

"That's all?" Frank said incredulously.

"That's it," Jacob nodded
