Chapter 288 Pulling Some Strings for Neera At 2 PM, Kyra appeared at the Beauvort Group as requested by her manager.

The receptionist recognized her but she still asked politely, “Ms. Marks, do you have an appointment?”

Kyra pushed back her sunglasses in annoyance and asked, “Do I need an appointment to meet your president?”

The receptionist stated the rules. “Anyone who wants to meet the president needs to make an appointment in advance. They can only meet him after his approval.”

Kyra showed off her identity arrogantly. “My family and the Beauvort family are close. Don’t you know my relationship with Jean?”

The receptionist wasn’t fazed by her. “Even if it’s what you said, you can’t just go up, Ms. Marks.

Please don’t make it difficult for me, I am just following the rules. I can help you to pass your message to the president.”

“Hurry up,” Kyra said impatiently.

The receptionist called lan’s office.

lan immediately informed Jean, “Sire, Kyra is here. She’s downstairs. She wants to see you, should I let her come up?”

Jean didn’t want to meet her.

However, thinking of the cooperation between their families, he reluctantly agreed.

Kyra was delighted when she learned that Jean was willing to meet her. She rushed up.

After entering the office, she greeted him with a smile, “Hello, Jean.”

She called him intimately and looked at him lovingly.

Jean didn’t notice it. He asked straight to the point, “What do you want?”

Kyra was a little upset with his attitude. She quickly suppressed it and politely stated her intention.

“Jean, I was recently in talks for being a female lead in a movie. But because of a little misunderstanding, it’s now been replaced with Ms. Javer. I wanted…Can you look at the fact that we have known each other for many years and talk to the producing team? Can you tell them not to replace me with Ms. Javer? I can compensate her with something else until she is satisfied, is that alright?” Kyra pleaded sincerely.

She hoped that Jean would agree with her.

Jean was not moved by her.

“The entertainment industry is filled with uncertainty. The producing team chose Sasha because she had the ability. They have their considerations for this decision as well. You shouldn’t come to me for this.”

“But…”

“If you want this role, fight for it yourself with the producing team. You’ve chosen wrongly by asking for my help. I don’t have the time to care about such trivial matters and I won’t pull the strings for you. It’s all about your ability in any workplace.”

It was like a slap in Kyra’s face after being bluntly rejected by Jean. How could he embarrass me like this? Why wouldn’t he pull the strings for me? Why did he do that for Neera and help her with everything?

Kyra was so furious that she almost asked it out loud. She held her tongue because she knew that Jean was not someone she could afford to mess with. She still wanted to marry him. She didn’t want Jean to hate her.

Kyra could only give in. “I’m sorry for not following the rules. In that case, I won’t make things difficult for you. Jean, just pretend that you didn’t hear what I said.”

“Alright. Anything else?” Jean asked.

It was obvious that he wanted her to leave.

Kyra was upset but could only shake her head gently. “Nothing. Get busy. I’ll leave now.”

After she left the Beauvort Group and got into her car, Sean asked, “How is it? Did Jean agree?”

Kyra didn’t answer. She looked awful.
