Chapter 60: Mr. Reed, This Is...?
Just as she was wondering about it, she looked up and saw several KG Entertainment executives walk
into the hotel where the restaurant was at.
Gwenda suddenly recalled what August had just said and had no time to dwell on them. She rushed
over and grabbed her cousin's arm, "August, I'll eat with you, Iet's go..."
"Didn't you say that you were going to leave?"
August said coldly with raised eyebrows.
Gwenda smiled sheepishly and rubbed her nose, letting out an awkward chuckle as she said, "I didn't
mean it. I was angry then. You're the bigger man here, how could you be mad at a brat like me?"
As she spoke, she patted his chest in a fawning manner.
August smacked her hand away in disgust and said, "Are you done or what!"
"You're the best, August! Please just calm down."
Gwenda continued acting like a spoiled child.
"Hurry up and get inside!"
August rolled his eyes at her and turned to walk into the hotel.
"Right."
Gwenda followed him with a smile.
Near the door, the window of a black Audi rolled down.
Olivier was in the car, and had clearly seen the way Gwenda fawned over the man. His eyes gradually
became wintry as a frown deepened between his brows.
Otto, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was puzzled. He had expected Olivier to get out of the car. He
asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"
Olivier's face was as black as thunderclouds as he got out of the car without responding. He left without
a word.
Otto froze before he scrambled to follow after his boss. "Sir, wait for me." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

In a private room, the KG Entertainment executives watched as August brought in a young woman,
confusion evident on their faces.
"Mr. Reed, may we know who this is?"
"My sister, she just finished classes for the day and had nowhere to eat, so I just brought her over."
August gave a simple explanation.
The executives nodded at his words.
They did not know about Gwenda's true identity and had never seen her before. So, they believed
August's words.
"Oh, so it's your sister, Mr. Reed. She looks lovely."
"Hello, everyone."
Gwenda greeted everyone before sitting next to August. She tried to make herself unnoticeable by
acting like an ignorant university student.
The executives did not pay her further attention and immediately engaged in talk with August.
They spoke of business affairs for the whole meal.
Although Gwenda appeared to be inattentive, she was actually listening to the conversation with
diligence.
It turned out that KG Entertainment had suffered a great loss after Lan's scandal.
As a result, they ended up targeting the endorsement of a product that was owned by Reed
Corporation in order to make up for the impact of their losses.
"Mr. Reed, you and Mr. Evans are relatives. Thus, there is no need to say more about the relations
between our companies. This endorsement is of vital importance to us. We hope that you could give it
some thought and help us out."
Jason Wright, who was in a higher position compared to the other executives, took the lead to speak.
There was flattery in his prose.
August gently swirled the wine in his glass when he heard this. A faint smile lifted the corners of his
mouth as he said, "Since you're so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush. Who are you going to
arrange for from KG Entertainment to take this endorsement?"
"Well..."
Jason thought for a moment and said, "It's one of our artists, Lina Wood."
"Lina Wood?"
August's eyes glimmered with mirth as he mocked, "That third-rate singer who relies on one song to
make it in the entertainment industry?"
Hearing this, Jason and his fellow executives looked upset.
Next to August, Gwenda could not help but smile a little.
Her cousin was, after all, notorious for his sharp tongue.
Average people were not able to outwit him at all.
Needless to say, the faces of the executives at the table must be quite the sight to see.
