The voice belonged to Cindy Snyder, a girl who sat next to Xyla Quest when they were in their third year of high school.“Cindy Snyder?” Xyla asked doubtfully. There was a look of disbelief in her eyes.The two of them sat next to each other in their third year in high school. Back then, they were extremely good friends. After they graduated, Cindy had gone abroad to study, and they rarely spoke to each other since.After Tom Sullivan betrayed Xyla, she had cut off all contact with her friends and family and gone to America alone. Ever since then, Xyla and Cindy had become completely out of touch.“It’s me… Xyla, do you remember me? I’m organizing a high school reunion in seven days at the Hilton Hotel. Will you come, please? I’ve done what I could on my own to invite all our classmates from Class A… If you don’t show up, it won’t be perfect.” Cindy’s voice was as gentle and pleasant as ever.“Sure,” Xyla agreed right away.After they graduated from high school, Xyla’s classmates
Chapter 309
Georgie Clementine would never let the female actresses she managed miss such an opportunity.Georgie agreed to Fred Thomson’s invitation right away. After that, she quickly fixed her make-up and made her way to a café on the first floor of the Hilton Hotel, where Fred had suggested the meeting.At this time of the day, there weren’t many people in the café. Only a few tables were occupied.When Georgie arrived, Fred was already waiting for her at a table by the window.Middle-aged, Fred was balding, and he seemed out of place compared to the young people around him.When Fred saw Georgie, he waved at her enthusiastically.Georgie waved enthusiastically in return before walking over and sat across from him. She was wearing over-the-knee boots.“I wonder why Director Thomson has asked to meet me today?” Georgie cut to the chase.“Naturally, it’s about the casting of the female lead for my new drama series. Chief Clementine, I’m quite happy with the people you have recommended. I

How could Fred Thomson do this to such a young girl?The more Georgie Clementine thought about it, the more she felt disgusted. Her clenched fists began to tremble slightly under the table.“I will not agree to this,” Georgie said coldly as she pressed the record button on her phone.Fred’s facial expression instantly turned cold, and he began to scowl. “What? How dare you refuse? I’ll make your company suffer. Do you think I’m not capable of that?”Fred made sure his voice was as soft as possible, but he still sounded vicious.“Director Fred Thomson, are you saying that if I don’t send Wendy Simpson to sleep with you, you’ll make our company suffer?” Georgie snorted coldly.“Keep your voice down. And yes, you should know how influential I, Fred Thomson, am in the circle,” Fred responded resolutely in a lowered voice.“I know, but you should know that X Entertainment isn’t that easy to mess with,” Georgie said and snorted.“What do you mean?” Fred asked.Georgie didn’t say any

“If you do that, I’ll expose you. We can go down together. Do you think I’m weak just because I don’t display my strength? If you want to mess with our company, I’d suggest you do it quickly. Let’s see who dies first.” Georgie Clementine’s voice was just as low, but she sounded firm.With such substantial evidence in her hands, Fred Thomson wouldn’t dare act rashly even if he was very influential.Fred had no choice but to remain silent and be treated this way by Georgie.Henry Armstrong crossed one leg over the other lazily. The smile on his face widened as he thought to himself that the way Georgie scolded someone was appealing to him.Now, Georgie wanted to vomit at the sight of Fred. She no longer wanted to look at this person.Immediately, Georgie picked up her large LV handbag, turned around, and left.When she turned around, her eyes met Henry’s.Henry took the initiative to lift one hand to greet her.Georgie, however, completely ignored him and simply walked away. Her

“If you’re not convinced, go out there and ask for her WeChat account details. If you can get it, I’ll pay for all your expenses today. But if you can’t, you’ll have to buy Rachel a limited-edition Hermes handbag later. What do you think?” Sebastian Brenand asked.“I’m not afraid,” Henry Armstrong said as he glanced disdainfully at Sebastian. He then sauntered away. Georgie Clementine had just opened her car door when Henry left the café.Today, she drove her white Audi R8.The scene of a luxury car and a beautiful woman was a wondrous sight.“Georgie…” Henry approached her with his hands in his pockets and a smile on his face.Georgie nodded slightly at him. She seemed aloof.“We’ve met in the past,” Henry said.“Hmm.”“Please allow me to introduce myself formally. My name is Henry Armstrong,” Henry said with an extended hand.“Hello,” Georgie said and nodded without shaking his hand.“Has anyone ever told you that you seem aloof?” He asked. She seemed like a proud peacock

“She isn’t interested in me now. But how sure are you that she won’t be interested in me in the future?” Henry Armstrong asked.“… Fine. I can get you her WeChat account details, but you must buy Rachel two handbags. Limited-edition,” Sebastian said as he casually rested his chin on Rachel Wood’s shoulder and continued to look at Henry.“Okay, got it,” Henry waved his hand helplessly. ***Meanwhile, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were both still eating and drinking.Although Xyla was already full, she would still eat a bit more because Stanley’s cooking was very good.Xyla felt unusually enthralled by this precious time of the year when she could rest.Before they knew it, they had finished two bottles of red wine.Under the influence of alcohol, Xyla’s cheeks were a little flushed.Stanley, on the other hand, still looked the same. His facial expression had not changed at all.Xyla spoke twice as much as usual. She began to tug his hand and told him about her past.Xyla tol

As soon as Xyla Quest finished speaking, Stanley Batton stood up and picked her up without saying a word before placing her on a chair.Xyla, who had just calmed herself down with much difficulty, began to feel her heart racing again. “You… What are you doing?”Stanley placed one hand on the table and the other on the back of Xyla’s chair, forming a circle around her. He leaned slightly closer to look at her blushing face. “Sit still. I’ll get the door, okay?”They were so close to each other that, if she looked up, she would be able to kiss his lips again.His facial features were like a celestial sculpture. His face would seem exquisite even when magnified. There was not a single flaw on his face.Ding-dong… Ding-dong…The doorbell started ringing again.Stanley looked at her deeply before slowly standing up and straightening his back. He then turned around and walked away.When Xyla saw him walking away, she suddenly found it much easier to breathe.The sense of oppression

“Yes… That’s why we had a fall-out. President Xyla, if you wish to blame me, go ahead. I’m willing to take full responsibility,” Georgie Clementine said.“I know it wasn’t a good idea to offend Fred Thomson… He has a strong background, but I… I just couldn’t help it,” Georgie added.“Why should I blame you when you have done nothing wrong at all? If I was there, I would’ve hit him harder than you did,” Xyla Quest said before subconsciously clenching her fists.Why was hell empty when demons roamed the world?After picking up the laptop on her desk and booting it up, Xyla quickly tapped on the keyboard several times.Very soon, she managed to hack into Fred’s phone.When Xyla saw two encrypted photo albums, she quickly opened one of them.Immediately after that, all sorts of disgusting images came to sight.There were photos of Fred doing unspeakable things to young girls, boys, and popular teenage celebrities from the entertainment industry.In the pictures, the boys and girls
