Chapter 348

Janet’s acting was perfect in terms of her gestures and expressions.

She bowed to the audience when the sketch came to an end and said, “The Gala Night is coming to an end now. I want to thank Ms. Berry for all her help.

As the night came to an end, all the performers returned to the stage to sing the song ‘Unforgettable Night’ together.

Everyone’s spirits rose to their zenith.

Watching the live broadcast, the netizens had nothing but praises and even started a new thread, “What other talents a performer lack if he can perform in the Gala Night?”

Lucas’ gaze remained fixated on Ashlyn.

She was pushed to the center by the other performers.

Despite having so many beautiful performers around her, Ashlyn’s beauty is still so captivating. I can’t tear my eyes off her. I wonder what she is saying to Jonathan, who is standing beside her now. His face is slightly blushed, and he seems to be looking at her with a flirtatious glint in his eyes.

Lucas felt a surge of jealousy rising within him.

How can a small-time celebrity seduce my woman! He must have a death wish!

Damn!

“Ban him!” Lucas ordered out of the blue.

“Mr. Nolan…” Spencer was placed in a difficult position. How can Mr. Nolan ban his own company’s idol simply in a fit of rage? Spencer went on nervously, “Jonathan is the top celebrity in Nolan Entertainment. We need him to lead our rookies. Otherwise, those veteran artistes will not care a dime about our rookies.”

“…”

Upon hearing Spencer’s words, Lucas remembered that Jonathan was under his company.

“Cancel all his jobs next week to serve him a warning.”

“…”

I wonder what has Jonathan done to offend his own boss to lose all his jobs for the entire week.

Spencer would never dream that Jonathan was punished by Lucas simply because the latter was jealous.

After the Gala Night had ended, Jared asked Jonathan, “What did my boss say to you just now?

“Your boss is right.” Jonathan rubbed his nose before going on, “She asks if I’m interested to act in a movie. My role will be an idol.”

“Act in a movie?” Jared raised his brows.

“Yes! She wants to invest in it, so I have asked her to speak to my manager.”

“Why don’t I know beforehand that my boss wants to film a movie?” Jared looked forlorn as he felt left out by Ashlyn.

“Maybe the thought just strikes her.” With that, Jonathan left with his manager.

Jared went to fetch Ashlyn.

She was in the midst of bidding farewell to the performers in the backstage.

Jared leapt with shock as he caught sight of the scene in the backstage.

If I don’t know better, I may have thought that someone just died.

The performers had not even changed out of their costumes and were surrounding Ashlyn.

Some were talking to her while some were wiping tears off their cheeks.

What… is going on now?

Jared was baffled and caught Ashlyn’s words, “Enough of this. We will have a chance to cooperate in the future. I have booked the restaurant at the Imperial Hotel for next Saturday. Why don’t I treat everyone to a farewell dinner?”

“Ms. Berry, Imperial Hotel is rather expensive. Isn’t it too extravagant to treat more than a hundred people for dinner at the hotel?”

“I don’t want to waste your money.”

“Yes, Ms. Berry. Don’t spend so much money on us.”

“It’s nothing. Don’t fret over it.” Ashlyn smiled and caught sight of Jared, thus she continued, “My friend is here to fetch me. I need to leave now.”

Everyone turned around to see Jared and started teasing them immediately.

“Ah, Mr. Quickton! Ms. Berry’s boyfriend!”

“Mr. Quickton is here to show off his love towards Ms. Berry!”

“Mr. Quickton, Ms. Berry is great! Your choice is fabulous!”

A blush crept up on Jared’s neck and face. My relationship with my Boss is purely work. We are not lovers.
