Chapter 18 Osvaldo Hodges
In another VIP Room at Golden Willow Restaurant, Jaelyn’s friend, Camila Garrett, was browsing trending news with her phone.
“The Richmond family from Velmora has found their daughter who’s been missing for over 20 years. And they’ve donated 80 million dollars at once. Wow, they’re quite generous!
“Hey, Jaelyn, you’ve just kicked that woman outta your family, and the Richmond family announced that they found their daughter back. Could it be that they’re actually the same person?”
“Impossible!” Jaelyn blurted.
Meanwhile, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Camila.
“You saw it yesterday. Lindsey’s friends are all like hooligans! Even if she wants to be the Richmond family’s daughter, they won’t be willing to accept her!”
“You’re right.” Camila showed a disdainful look when she thought about that experience. “She grew up with you, but she’s totally different from you. How could she hang out with those hooligans? That’s so shameful!”
“Alright. Let’s not talk about her. See what you wanna eat.”
While reading the menu, Jaclyn said, “I heard that Mr. Hodges is the chef today. This is a rare chance!”
Camila smiled with flattery, “Really! That’s great! Thank you, Jaelyn! If I wanna eat at Golden Willow Restaurant by myself, I have to make an appointment a month in advance.”
“No need to thank me. I used Eliezer’s name to get in here,” Jaelyn said
with a proud look on her face.
She had already finished ordering. When she glanced at the news on her phone, disdain instantly appeared in her eyes.
“Gabrielle Richmond? That’s a stupid name. Sounds like a nouveau riche!”
*******
Tamia was still stunned by that news.
Her hands trembled slightly with shock as she asked, “Mr. Richmond, are you really gonna accept me? I indeed have a pretty face, and I know you believe that those negative rumors about me are groundless. But it’s still very costly to clarify them, and those netizens may not be willing to buy. it.”
Tamia was still hesitant because she was afraid of dragging Lunaris Entertainment into this mess. Jaelyn was the one who made her become like this today.
Jaelyn had the Woodward family as her backup. No matter how fast Lunaris Entertainment developed, it couldn’t be a match for the Woodward family in Rivendale..
Tamia didn’t wanna bring others trouble.
However, if Brayden was from the Richmond family in Velmora, Tamia suddenly wanted to give it a try. After all, the Richmond family had the power to compete with the Woodward family.
Even though this idea was somewhat despicable, Tamia still told Brayden honestly.
Upon hearing Tamia’s thoughts, Brayden couldn’t help but laugh.
You kept giving up your dream just because of the Woodward family?
To be honest, Ms. Patrick, that’s really stupid. I don’t think Eliezer would target you just to make Jaelyn smile. Besides, even if you choose to fight. back, will it become worse than you’re now?”
Tamia was stunned.
Could her situation be worse than she was now?
The worst thing was that she lost her job and was forced to marry someone she didn’t love in order to bring benefit to her family.
But her current situation was no different from losing her job.
After her role was snatched by Jaelyn, she got no offers from any directors, but she faced countless accusations and criticisms from the netizens every day.
Lindsey, sitting at the side, also fell silent when she heard Brayden’s
words.
Would Eliezer do anything bad to Tamia just to make Jaelyn smile?
Well…
It was hard to say. After all, Eliezer had opened an entertainment. company, which served Jaelyn only.
Thus, it was possible for him to use tricks to help Jaelyn beat Tamia and then make Jaelyn a popular celebrity.
With this thought in mind, Lindsey said to Tamia with a smirk, “You’re right. Tamia. If I were you, I might think maybe they wanted to use me to compete with the Woodward Group.”
Upon hearing this, Brayden immediately turned and glared at Lindsey, “Nonsense! I’m not that kind of person, okay?”
Tamia’s reaction was a bit slow, but she also realized what Lindsey meant.
