"I heard Mr. Beauvort's handsomeness is one in a thousand. I wonder if it's true?"
"Who knows? Anyway, I've also heard he's got one foot in the grave. I thought he had died!"
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? He's merely ill and recuperating at home. He's very much alive, got it? Don't speak ill of him. If he were gone, Beauvort Group would have crumbled. How do you think the company has managed to stay so influential?"
"By the way, isn't Star Entertainment Media a subsidiary of Beauvort Group? Mr. Beauvort has never shown up for their anniversary before. Why the change this year? Is this just a rumor?"
"I'm with Star Entertainment Media. Inside sources hinted that he's attending the anniversary this year, so there's a good chance it's legit! Also, the company has promoted an A-list celebrity this year. Many believe Mr. Beauvort's appearance might be tied to her."
"Oh, let me guess. Are you hinting at the one celebrity who's been showered with opportunities this year?"
"Oh girl, you are absolutely correct! I bet it's Sasha! Ever since that skincare campaign, she's been on a meteoric rise. Bagging endorsements, fashion gigs, and film roles like there's no tomorrow! It makes one wonder if there's a special connection between her and Mr. Beauvort."
"You're suggesting Sasha and Mr. Beauvort might be... an item? That sounds like a fairytale, Cinderella and her prince! Their backgrounds might be worlds apart, but you have to admit...this couple is shippable!"
"As a die-hard fan of Sasha, I hope everyone won't believe rumors. It's all fake until confirmed officially. Actually, I also think...the 'CEO and Celebrity' narrative is kind of captivating!"
Neera found their comments funny.
These internet users have such a wonderful imagination. They go as far as pairing Jean and Sasha together.
She was about to close the browser when her phone buzzed. She received a WhatsApp message.
She clicked on it. It turned out that she had received a long message from Sasha.
"Mr. Garcia, the rumors online are entirely baseless. My relationship with Mr. Beauvort is purely professional, just like the usual employer-employee relationship. Please don't get the wrong idea! People online tend to exaggerate things. Honestly, I think Mr. Beauvort is a better match for you. You two seem like a match in heaven!"
If I remember clearly, Sasha didn't know about my relationship with Jean, did she? Where did this match in heaven idea come from?
...
In the study of neighboring villas.
Jean scowled after he saw the news.
He asked Ian, "Why can't I recall that I had agreed to attend this event?"
Ian was equally confused. He wondered, "Weren't you the one who gave that order? I thought it was your wish."
"Nope," Jean's tone turned cold, and he directed, "Find out what's going on."
"Understood."
Ian quickly called Larry and asked him about it. Larry swiftly replied.
"Sir, Larry said this was your father's idea."
"My dad?" Jean knitted his brows tighter and asked, "What does this have to do with him?"
Star Entertainment Media has grown by leaps and bounds over the years. That company was doing well, but it was just one of the subsidiaries under the group.
A representative from senior management was sufficient.
It was not exactly a group anniversary, he didn't need to attend this event.
What's my dad trying to do by making such a decision without consulting him? He also promotes this in such a big way; what's his motive?
Jean squinted his eyes, unable to figure it out.
He decided to give his father a call.
Frederic, knowing what he'd ask, answered straightforwardly, "Kyra's management contract is expiring this month. She's interested in joining Star Entertainment Media. I want you to attend the event and announce this in public."
In other words, he was trying to create hype for Kyra.
Jean's gaze turned icy with this news, and so did his voice.
He said, "If Kyra wants to sign with us, let Star Entertainment Media's management handle it. I don't see the need for me to personally attend to this."
Sensing Jean's displeasure, Frederic knew he was not happy with this arrangement. He added, "This is your mother's request."
