Chapter 69
Get Bo
Marie smiled, “You said you wanted me to make you famous. Does that still count?”
Sasha said, “Of course it counts! I never go back on
back on my word!”
“Okay, I have a role for you. And I need you to come to New York after the SAT,” said Marie.
“No problem. I’m about to enroll in Yale University,” Sasha agreed immediately.
Marie firmly believed that Sasha’s charming and heroic face was simply a realistic version of
Jordyn’s.
But now the question was, where was that unruly boy, Jaime Constance?
While Marie was racking her brain, Iliana said, “There are so many rich families in New York. You cannot even count the number of spoiled brats among them. It’s not difficult to find a few of them
who are also in the entertainment industry.”
Marie was stunned. Right, there are many spoiled brats like Dereon!
But on second thought, Dereon gave her goosebumps of disgust.
“There’s a young master of the Robert family named Darwin Robert. He has acted in two films. He’s very good-looking, but he has a bad personality. No one can teach him a lesson.” As Iliana spoke,
she showed Marie a picture of Darwin.
The young boy was wearing a racing suit, standing next to a black racing car, holding a helmet in
his hand, and smiling at the camera.
He was confident, arrogant, but handsome and charming.
It was the kind of young boy with a cocky smile but clear eyes that Jaime was supposed to be.
Marie hugged Iliana and said, “You’ve helped me a lot!”
She immediately called Andres. As soon as he picked up the phone, he asked, “Marie, are you
sober?”
Marie was speechless.
Andres asked cheerfully, “What’s the matter? If Mr. Whitney finds out that you’re calling me, he’ll
skin me alive.”
“Is there a person named Darwin Robert in your family?” asked Marie.
Yeah, my younger brother. What’s wrong?” Andres asked.
“I have a role for him!” Marie said immediately.
Get Bogus
“Well… Marie, Darwin has been spoiled by my family since he was a child, and he has a bad femper. I can’t even do anything about him. Why don’t you find someone else?”
Andres was a little worried. If Darwin aroused the slightest anger in Marie, Dennis would throw
Darwin into the Pacific Ocean.
“Let me meet him first, and then we’ll decide, okay? You arrange for us to meet.” Marie chose to be cheeky and didn’t hang up the phone.
Andres said, “All right. I’ll race with a few of my friends in a couple of days. Ask Mr. Whitney to bring you along. I’ll bring Darwin there, but don’t tell him it was my idea!”
Marie immediately nodded. “Got it!”
After school, Marie said goodbye to Iliana and asked the driver to take her to Fairy Restaurant first. After Marie packed a grilled fish, she went to Glorious Estate.
She took out her keys and opened the door. Melissa was cooking, and she was overjoyed to see her back. “Ms. Spence, you’re back? Come in and have a seat, I’ll call Mr. Whitney later and ask him to come back for dinner!”
Stunned, Marie asked, “Doesn’t Dennis usually come back for dinner?”
Melissa came out with the dishes and said, “Only a handful of times. It’s Mr. Cullen who comes and brings the food to the company for him. Since you moved away, Mr. Whitney seldom came back for
meals.”
Seeing Melissa take out her phone, Marie paused before she said, “Melissa, go ahead. I’ll call him.”
Melissa happily handed the phone to her and went to the kitchen to cook. Marie dialed a number, and then Cullen’s voice came out, “Melissa, I’ll go get the meal later. You can pack it first.”
Marie said, “Cullen.”
“Ms. Spence?” Cullen was shocked and confirmed again that this was indeed Melissa’s phone!
“Dennis… Is he busy?” Marie asked.
Cullen looked at Dennis in the conference room and said, “Mr. Whitney is in a meeting.”
“Oh… So he won’t come back for dinner tonight, right?” Marie continued.
“Huh? Yes! Surely he’ll go back! Mr. Whitney will go back after the meeting!” Cullen immediately
said.
Whether he went back or not, he had to keep Ms. Marie first! He was definitely Mr. Whitney’s most caring wingman!
“Okay, then tell him that I’ve bought grilled fish from Fairy Restaurant and asked him to come back
early to eat.” Marie smiled.

“Okay! Don’t worry, Ms. Marie. I’ll pass on the message!” Cullen hung up the phone and walked. quickly into the conference room.
Dennis’ face was sullen. The next director stood up and reported to work with trepidation, for fear
of being scolded by Dennis like the last person.
The problem was that every question that Dennis said hit the nail on the head, making them
ashamed.
Cullen leaned closer to Dennis and whispered, “Mr. Whitney, Ms. Spence is at Glorious Estate.”
Dennis was stunned, “Who?”
Cullen said, “Ms. Marie is now at Glorious Estate.”
Dennis asked hesitantly, “What is she doing there?”
Cullen scratched his head and said, “I think she’s waiting for you to go back for dinner. Ms. Marie said she bought grilled fish from Fairy Restaurant and asked you to go back early.”
Dennis’s eyes lit up. Did this girl actually take the initiative to come to him one day?
After the director finished his report, he lowered his head and waited for Dennis’ reprimand. Unexpectedly, Dennis suddenly said, “Not bad. That’s all for today’s meeting.”
Dennis got up and strode out of the conference room. All the directors seemed to be relieved, and one of them pulled Cullen alone and asked, “Mr. Cullen, why is Mr. Whitney different today?”
Cullen thought for a while and said, “Mr. Whitney has something to do at home. Something big!”
He was right. Ms. Marie was Mr. Whitney’s biggest event.
Dennis returned to Glorious Estate. As soon as he entered and changed his shoes at the entrance, heard the silver-bell laughter of Marie. She seemed to be talking to Melissa, and was smiling pleasantly.
He walked in, and Melissa said, “Mr. Whitney, you’re back? Let’s eat. Ms. Spence has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Dennis walked over and stared at Marie, asking, “Why are you here?”
“I… came to apologize!” Marie lowered her head and said.
“For what?” Dennis asked her.
Marie raised her head and looked at him with her bright eyes. After trying to muster her courage a long time, she simply pulled the corner of his shirt and said, “Let’s eat. I’m hungry!”

Dennis knew her well, so he just rubbed the hair on her forehead and said, “Let’s eat.”
Marie smiled. She knew that the thing of her leaving without saying goodbye this time was over.
Dennis knew that Marie had her own thoughts and the shyness of a girl. There were some things that she couldn’t say, so he just said them.
While eating, Marie said, “Dennis, I heard you gave Andres a car?”
Dennis nodded, “Yes, why?”
“I want to watch racing too. Can you take me with you?” Marie asked.
Dennis looked up at her and asked, “Are you here to come to me or because you want to watch the race?”
Marie merely poked the dish on her plate with her fork out of guilt. He’d seen through it! Surely he was about to get angry again.
“Okay,” Dennis said suddenly.
“Huh? Okay? You agree?” Stunned, Marie asked.
“If that’s the reason you came to see me, then I can let Andres play racing every day. If you want to see something else, I’ll also find a way,” Dennis said.
Marie blushed. So, as long as she took the initiative to come to him, he would agree to anything?
