William was laughing scornfully as he put his arm around the shoulder of that mixed-race female star
and walked into the Dragon Entertainment.
Since Jack had not had any relationship with a woman, the press was curious about his relationship
status. But they had not dared to write fake news because of his social standing. After hearing what
William said today, they began to keep guessing.
Did the president of Dahlia Entertainment like men?
Compared with William who had countless girlfriends, Jack kept a very low profile. There was no sign
that he was seeing some woman.
Although he announced recently that he would become Anna's agent. Jack's words let people think he
seemed to use Anna as a shield to hide some truth.
Almost overnight, rumor had it in different worlds that the president of Dahlia Entertainment liked men.
However, no one dared to ask about its truth from the staff of the company.
"Oh no. He's really... gay?"
"Maybe! It's said that people like them are a little unsociable. Perhaps the way he acts is to protect his
secret and lover."
"But he is said to be in love with Anna."
"It's hype! Things are complicated in showbiz."
"I think William purposely started the rumor. Maybe Jack keeps his marriage as a secret and doesn't
want to expose his private life. Must every man be a playboy?"
"If he gets married, he shouldn't let people think he has a love affair with Anna. It's lying."
Since the news was wild guesses by small media websites and there was no hard evidence, many
people were skeptical about them. But they were spread in Dahlia Entertainment.
After reading today's entertainment news, Anna said to Jack, "I'm gonna buy the clothes of the latest
season with Lucy this afternoon. Would you like to go with me?"
"I've got some documents to deal with." Jack patted her hands, "I'm not going. You go and pick your
favorites."
Then, he went into his study.
But Anna always worried about him, so she made arrangements with Lucy to go next time. She walked
into the study with a cup of coffee and accompanied him until he dealt with all documents.
"Haven't you left yet?" he put down the pen and looked at her doubtfully.
She walked toward him and curled up in his arms, "I'm angry at them for defaming you! Isn't there any
way to fix it?"
Even if she clarified it to the media, she might be misrepresented as excusing him.
He looked at her and said calmly, "William's little trick has almost no effect on me. I've talked to his
father and asked him to discipline his son. But if I do it for him, it will be hard to wind this matter up."
"You know his father?"
"I know him in business. After all, the business circles are small."
Although Dahlia Entertainment and Dragon Entertainment were competitors, embarrassment between
each other should be avoided. Jack could forgive William's action for the sake of his parents. But if he
did it again... he would take the responsibility for the results.
Anna didn't expect that these two companies had such relationship, "How did his family reply?"
"They wanted to have a compromise and invited us to an evening dinner." Jack took out an invitation
just received. "His father and my uncle will attend."
"Uncle?" Anna asked with a tilt of her head. "I was also invited?"
Jack made it clear. It was "invited us".
"Yes. You will meet my uncle sooner or later anyway. Since we haven't made our relationship public,
you can attend as my female companion for the time being." He saw her nervousness and said gently,
"Otherwise you will worry."
She shook her head, "I am not afraid of being your female companion. I am just thinking it's a bit easy
to let him off just compromising with him."
She couldn't have cared so much about it if it was others' business. She did this because someone was
slandering him.
"It's hasty to compromise with him since this matter concerns my reputation." He smiled significantly
with a deep look.
She crooked her arm around his neck, chuckled and said, "Well, since you put it that way, I will be
relieved. When is the evening dinner?"
"The day after tomorrow."
"I am gonna phone to Lucy and pick an evening dress with her." After she finished her words, she
hurriedly took out her phone and went downstairs.
She wanted to make a good impression on his uncle since that day was their first meeting, which made
preparations for meeting his other family members later on.
Sitting in the study and seeing her run downstairs quickly, he couldn't help shaking his head and
smiled, "She always fears nothing, but was worried so much about my problems."
Lucy was puzzled after picking up the phone. She hurried to Anna's villa and picked her up. "Why do
you suddenly change your mind? Aren't you gonna stay at home to be with Jack?"
"I am gonna meet his uncle, so I must get a very decent evening dress." She held her fingertips and
her heart was beating.
She began to get nervous before meeting his uncle.
Lucy immediately knew about her nervousness and stepped on the gas. "I have contacted a dress
shop and there's still time to customize an evening dress."
Yet in a way she was always careful in getting along with her family members. She was not very good
at getting on with them, especially her elders, because of the following reasons: there was a
complicated relationship in her family; she started her career early and cut all ties with her family.
It was understandable that she was nervous when suddenly told to meet his uncle.
"Don't get nervous..."
"You were more nervous than me when Bill's parents came to meet you."
"My situation was different from yours. Jack will handle all the problems for you. All you need to do is to
show up beautifully. His uncle will certainly like you. You can think of it as acting and concentrate on it."
...
After getting the phone Olive gave to him, Mark made great efforts and spent lots of money to unlock it.
Reading through the photos on the phone, he felt both nervous and excited. He must find out some
clues.
But the recent photos were either about selfies of Anna, or about the annual dinner of Dahlia
Entertainment that night. These photos were mainly about Anna and Amina.
After seeing those photos, he couldn't help but think highly of Anna. She was indeed an actress with
perfect temperament as she never had stage freight, showing her unique charm. Amina was nothing
compared with her.
But, what was the use of beauty?
He decided she must be a bi*ch who had messy private life and seduced men.
