"President Darby, Donghai Television Station sent us an invitation for an evening gala," said Pearl."What evening gala?" Darryl asked absent-mindedly.Pearl smiled and replied, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is near, and they're holding a gala for that. It's a grand event as many celebrities will be there, and all the big shots in Donghai City are going, as well."Pearl's face glowed with pride as she continued, "Platinum Corporation promoted two celebrities recently, Giselle Lindt and Lana Thomas. The station wants them to attend the gala, so our company is the first to receive an invitation. As the president of the company, you can't miss a celebration event like this."'Is it mid-autumn already?'Darryl nodded. "Fine, make the preparations.""Very well."....It was 7 pm, and the TV station building was showered with brilliant lights.The Donghai Satellite Television Building was one of the most beautiful buildings in the city. It looked exceptionally breathtaking when it was ba

Dalton stood arm-in-arm with a young woman, who was taller than him."My beautiful Giselle, are you interested in getting a drink with me?" Dalton asked teasingly as he approached her.He looked at Giselle from top to bottom, but he ignored Darryl, who stood beside her.He thought that Darryl was a bodyguard because of his sunglasses.Giselle pursed her lips; she did not reply to him. She felt disgusted whenever she thought about his hands on her when she had an interview in Dalton's company.Dalton was angry with Giselle's silence. "Giselle Lindt, why are you a prude? How are you these days? No one is offering you movie deals and or even advertisements, right? Do you know the reason for that?" Dalton looked triumphant.Giselle's neutral expression turned into anger. "You are the one behind that?"Darryl's brows furrowed even more.Giselle had stayed in the company building for some time because she had nothing else to do. In comparison, Lana's schedule was packed even though

Giselle was also overwhelmed with worry. She bit her lips and said softly, "Brother Darryl, it's fine."Darryl smiled at her. "Don't worry; we'll do nothing but talk. We won't fight.""Darryl, listen to me. Don't go," Lana advised softly.The two bodyguards were about two meters tall! Things would not end well for Darryl if he were to go to the washroom."Listen, I can't allow you to go. Do you hear me?" Lana continued to persuade him."It's fine, don't worry." Darryl walked toward the washroom in giant steps.When they realized that they could not stop him, Giselle and Lana glanced at each other worriedly.Darryl arrived at the washroom. He saw Dalton and the two bodyguards as soon as he stepped into the restroom.Dalton approached him. "Kiddo, there's still time for you to kneel and apologize for your mistake."Dalton thought the kiddo would be willing to acknowledge his mistake if he had some sense in him.However, he was utterly wrong about that.Darryl chuckled and walk

Giselle and Lana looked even more charming with their reddened faces when they returned to the banquet hall even though they were embarrassed.The scene in the washroom replayed in their minds like a film.Dalton was on the floor in the washroom, and he was drenched in urine.Darryl pulled his pants up and said mischievously, "Oops! Sorry for getting my piss on you! Why did you have to disturb me when I was peeing?""F*ck you! You are doomed! Doomed!"Dalton's face was full of hatred; he was exasperated!As the president of Dalton Entertainment, he had never experienced humiliation like that!F*cking hell! He would have to murder that kid one day!Darryl smiled at him. "Fatso, what kind of attitude is that? Come on; I only peed on you a little! Here, I'll wash it off for you."Darryl grabbed Dalton's collar and pressed his head into a urinal.*Gulp*Dalton was shocked and angry, but he could not react in time, so he swallowed a few mouthfuls. His fat body twitched as he stru

'Such a domineering tone!' Suddenly, Darryl had an idea; he smiled and said, "Tell me, please, who is Ms. Scott? How would she make me suffer?"The assistant sighed; she thought that the bodyguard was an idiot who wanted to stall instead of apologizing. She shook her head. "This is Miss Sunny Scott, the most popular female celebrity in Dalton Entertainment. You will definitely lose your job if you upset her."'Oh, Dalton Entertainment? Your president just drank my piss.'Darryl sneered. Then he said in a calm tone, "I don't care who you are. You are in the wrong because you were the one who knocked into me. I'm already giving you face by not demanding an apology from you. Stop bothering me."'I just gave the president of Dalton Entertainment a lesson, so why would I be afraid of a little celebrity under his company?'The other guests had gathered to watch the scene. They pointed at Darryl and shook their heads with disapproval.'This security guard is really something. Why would
Chapter 221
The gala was quite dull; it was just an event where celebrities performed on stage.Darryl walked around the venue, but he did not see Giselle and Lana. He figured they were backstage to wait for their turn to get on stage for their performances.He decided not to stay for them; he wanted to go home, take a shower, and go to sleep.He left the Donghai Satellite Television Building and lit a cigarette near the entrance. It was almost 9 pm; the lights flickered as people walked around the streets.Darryl was about to call a taxi when he noticed two men acting suspiciously beside a luxurious MPV.One of them was skinnier than the other, and they placed a bag behind the MPV's trunk before they hid behind a utility pole.'What are those two doing?' Darryl smoked his cigarette as he watched with interest.A pretty woman in a white dress walked by a few moments later. She looked like a college student.She had the keys in her hand, and she got up to the MPV. She ignited its engine and

"You can't just name an exorbitant price just because the girl is young."The two con men were not worried about the crowd's discussion.They were professional con men; they were well prepared. The certificate might have been fake, but the vase was an actual antique from the Yuan dynasty, although they had only spent a thousand bucks to purchase it.The two purposely chose to act on someone with a luxurious car. They placed the luggage behind the vehicle and waited for the driver to knock over it when they reversed their car. Then they would appear and accuse the driver of breaking their vase.The driver would be bitter if they were to know about it."You don't believe that it's worth two million bucks? Anyone here from the antique field? Come and decide if we are lying," the skinny man scanned through the crowd and said confidently."I work at Donghai City Museum; I can take a look."A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses approached them and showed them his employee card.

"Your analysis is correct. The vase is worth two million bucks if it is still in pristine condition." Darryl continued, "However, you missed something, the time when the vase was broken."Shawn's expression changed, but he did not say anything."Kid, you're acting like you know more than a museum employee.""You looked like a security guard. Wait, you smell like you just came out of a washroom. Are you also a janitor?"The crowd laughed; Darryl indeed smelled like he had urine on him.There was one person who did not laugh; Dora stared at Darryl frozenly.Darryl crouched and took a piece of the shattered vase. "Experts would know that the Yuan dynasty's delftware was made from a mixture of two ingredients—china stone and kaolinite. Therefore, when a delftware item broke, its yellowish base would get dark if it was exposed to air."Darryl handed a piece of the porcelain to the middle-aged man. "The pieces in the luggage can prove that the vase was broken quite some time ago. Base
