Chapter 188
The film and television company that Jonas was working for was Taylor Entertainment.
It was a cloudy day, and the dark clouds outside hung low, as if they were pressing down on the tall buildings.
Valentine sat on his chair, he was having a headache because of the incidents involving Jonas.
“Actor Jonas’ ruined his image,”
“Actor Jonas leaves the film crew without permission,”
…
“They really like taking advantage of people’s downfall to make them suffer…”
Jonas was a senior in the entertainment industry. It meant that he was popular, and his acting skills were recognized.
However, it also meant that his topic was not discussed as much as the rookies.
Usually, the headlines were about which celebrities were having a scandal, or which celebrities were the most beautiful.
Now that there was breaking news about Jonas ruining his own image, the incident gained a lot of attention. So, there would be people who were jealous of him and took the opportunity to cause trouble for Jonas.
“Sigh…” Valentine sighed.
At this moment, an old lady in a green suit appeared silently by the window.
Valentine’s mouth was so frightened that he almost screamed.
“Oh… Oh my god!” He fell to the ground all of a sudden.
The old lady in the green suit stared and said, “Why are you yelling?”
Only then did Valentine realized that the ghost in front of him was his mother!
“Why are you here, mom…” That was the second time Valentine saw a ghost.
The first time was when he went to ask Lilly to summon his mother and after so long, Valentine thought that his mother reincarnated.
The old lady in the suit said, “I’m here to help you,”
Valentine was heartbroken. Everything was going smoothly for him recently, but he did not expect his mother to help him.
“Mom, what’s the matter with you this time? Do you have enough money to spend? If not, I’ll send you some more every day,” He got up and said. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
The old lady said, “No need, I’m the richest ghost ever, ”
“I just spent money to see you for five minutes.”
Valentine was silent.
“Mom, you almost scared me,” Valentine said with a smile.
The old lady scolded him, and then continued, “Didn’t I ask you to help that little girl find her father last time, and I told you that her father is from the MacNeil family, why didn’t you do it?”
Valentine patted his head, “It’s not like we can find out about Lilly’s father…”
The old lady said to herself, “That’s true…but besides her father, her mother was also plotted by someone back then. I asked about it. I don’t know they did it. You must seize the opportunity this time!”
Valentine replied, “Huh?”
He could not get himself involved with rich and powerful families.
“Also, I’ve heard that people said that a star under your company will be in trouble. Try taking care of it and you’ll be good,”
Valentine was a little speechless, what did his mother do to get so much information.
He nodded, “Alright,”
Even if his mother did not warn him about it, he would have defended Jonas either way.
Valentine thought that his mother did not trust him.
Unexpectedly, the old lady smiled and said, “Alright I think I’m done here, I’m going to pick up my old friend! Finally she’s dead, I’ll have someone to dance with me!”
“I spent money to buy two opportunities to come here. One is for you to see me, and the other is for me to appear in my old girlfriend’s place and scare her!”
Valentine was puzzled.
He stared dumbfounded at his mother as she drifted away happily.
At this moment, a tiny head poked out from the door of his office.
Valentine, who had just been scared to death by his mother, was almost scared to death by Lilly again.
“Hi, Mr. Val!” Lilly greeted happily as she carried an bag shaped like an animal.
Valentine stroked his heart and said, “Little Miss Crawford you scared me to death!”
Lilly chuckled, and took Jonas’ hand and entered.
“What brings you here today, Little Miss Crawford?” Valentine immediately asked someone to get the cake, and said, “Aren’t you going to school today?”
Lilly shook her head and said, “Uncle Jonas told me to skip class.”
Jonas said, “Hey… what are you talking about?”
She was the one who wanted to take him fishing, but why was she at the company?
The door was pushed open again, and several employees came in with seven or eight variety of cakes.
Since the employees read the last item in the employee handbook, it was said that Lilly cannot eat too sweet, does not like chocolate, likes fruit cake and fruit candy…
They did not know why, and today they finally knew the reason.
Lilly’s eyes lit up, and he gave Valentine a thumbs-up, “Mr. Val, you’re going to gain weight, and you won’t be able to button your clothes in the future!”
Does this mean that he has a bright future?
Valentine smiled and said, “Thank you Little Miss Crawford for your compliment!”
Lilly ate a piece of cake in one bite. It was sweet but not greasy, it was delicious!
Valentine observed her words and expressions, and asked, “Today is…”
Jonas was about to speak, but Lilly stretched out his hand and said seriously, “I think you’re going to be in trouble, Mr. Val,”
Valentine was surprised.
What…
At this moment, the assistant hurried in and said, “Mr. Taylor, someone is making trouble at the entrance of the company…”
Valentine looked at Lilly in surprise.
Was it a coincidence?
At the entrance of Taylor Entertainment.
Because of Jonas’s incident, there had been a lot of media and some fans who stayed near the building to stalk Jonas recently.
The family members of the girl who jumped from the building held four or five black and white banners, which read:
“Actor Jonas carelessly disregards human life and harms girls!”
“Give me back my daughter! Give me justice!”
“Actor Jonas is a scumbag for not taking responsibility for someone’s death!”
The paparazzi, and bloggers were like flies swarming around rotten eggs, rushing to take pictures and broadcast live.
Valentine saw the chaotic situation when he came out, and then looked at what was written on the banner, his face turned gloomy.
“Where are the security guards? Get them out!” He said sternly.
Upon hearing this, the parents of the girl who jumped off the building exploded.
The girl’s mother knelt on the ground and cried: “God…you disregard human life! My poor daughter, you died so pitifully…”
“That actor, Jonas, played with our daughter’s feelings and caused her to jump off the building, causing her death, but you still want to drive us away without giving an explanation…”
“Are you going to keep our mouths shut? We will never leave until there’s an explanation!”
A group of people shouted and asked Valentine to give an explanation angrily.
The influencers finally understood what the media said, and were shocked.
What? Jonas played with fans’ feelings, causing fans to jump off the building?
Some influencers’ eyes lit up, and they immediately talked nonsense in their live stream.
Valentine’s headache was so bad that he did not want to make a fuss about it. The first controversy was when Jonas left the crew without permission and he clarified that it was because of his mother’s illness.
Now, there was another controversy about Jonas playing with fans’ feelings.
There were so many people at the entrance, who would have known that many people would cause trouble in public.
Suddenly, Lilly ran to the front desk of the company, and soon came out again, she ran front of the troublemaker girl’s mother.
She stuffed something into the girl’s mother’s hand and said, “Here, here you are!”
The girl’s mother was taken aback, looked at the medication in her hand, and asked, “What are you doing…”
Lilly said, “Didn’t you say you want medication? Here you go!”
Everyone was silent and there was pin-drop silence.
