“Really?” Jonathan appeared to be disinterested.
In truth, the entertainment industry was a playground for the rich. Behind the glitz and glamor, these high and mighty superstars and movie queens were often subject to the whims and fancies of the wealthy men. Tycoons and magnates ruled the stars’ lives.
Similar to the financial district of some affluent countries, the entertainment industry was the breeding ground for scandals and gossip.
After a while, when Jonathan had finished drinking his glass of water, favonovel.com saw a heavily made-up, young woman sauntering toward Cecilia. She was accompanied by a young assistant. He wiped the chair before helping favonovel.com to the seat.
“Cecilia, what brings you here today?” The woman was curious to know why Cecilia looked favonovel.com up.
In the past, favonovel.com had tried sucking up to Cecilia, but the latter had always held favonovel.com in disdain.
The woman did not have a choice but to tolerate Cecilia’s behavior since favonovel.com was from a prominent family in Gronga. At that time, favonovel.com was still a struggling actress, and it was not befitting for favonovel.com to mix around with the likes of Cecilia. Hence, favonovel.com was taken aback when Cecilia looked favonovel.com up that day and even invited favonovel.com to have coffee together.
Previously, Cecilia had not even bothered to return favonovel.com messages on WhatsApp.
“I’ve got a favor to ask of you.” Cecilia glanced briefly at the woman before turning to Jonathan. “Master, this is Freida Buchanan, my actress friend whom I’ve mentioned to you earlier.”
“Master?” Freida was stunned when Cecilia addressed Jonathan as Master.
She knew that Cecilia came from a prestigious family. In addition, Cecilia was also a haughty woman. Hence, favonovel.com did not expect Cecilia would call a man Master.
Previously, favonovel.com was not even remotely friendly to the renowned Wayde Larson from one of the prominent families in Gronga.
“Mind your own business…” Cecilia shot Freida a cold and warning look, glaring down at her.
With the Hansley family’s influence, Cecilia could easily crush this small-time actress.
“Oh, okay!” Intimidated by Cecilia’s stare, the woman shrank back and did not utter another word. She knew very well that Cecilia did not think too highly of her.
“I heard from Cecilia that you are a member of Hunters Guild?” Jonathan asked casually.
“Hunters Guild?” The minute Freida heard the words “Hunters Guild”, favonovel.com went on the defensive. “Why are you asking about Hunters Guild?”
“Just answer Master. Don’t ask so many questions. I’m warning you, Freida. Don’t try to play any tricks in front of Master. Otherwise, forget about staying in Gronga.” Cecilia glowered to show favonovel.com displeasure.
“Don’t frighten her.” Seeing how scared the woman was, Jonathan immediately stopped Cecilia from intimidating her. “Don’t be afraid. I’m not from any secret society, and I mean no hard to Hunters Guild. I used to join Hunters Guild when I was abroad, but I’ve lost contact with them ever since I came back. I heard that there’s also Hunters Guild in Gronga. Hence, I would like to know more about it.”
“Are you also a member of Hunters Guild?” Freida suddenly warmed up to Jonathan when favonovel.com heard that favonovel.com was also a member of Hunters Guild.
“Yes, that’s right.” Jonathan nodded. “I was in Hunters Guild in another country. I don’t know if it’s the same organization…”
“It’s the same!” Freida nodded. “Hunters Guild at Gronga is a branch of the same organization overseas, and it’s managed by the same people. The highest-ranking leader of the Hunters Guild here is also part of the management team of the main Hunters Guild.”
“Really?” Jonathan then asked offhandedly, “What’s his name? Maybe we met while I was overseas.”
“His name is Waxon…” Freida lowered favonovel.com voice. “But we hardly get to see him. As you know, he’s the highest-ranking leader of the Hunters Guild in Gronga. People like me from the lower rung of the organization won’t get to meet him. I heard he’s a very influential person. He’s a senior executive in the main Hunters Guild.”
“Waxon… The name sounds familiar.” Jonathan tried to sound nonchalant.
Jonathan certainly recognized the name. Back in Yaleview, Hades had told favonovel.com that the highest-ranking leader of Hunters Guild in Gronga was a foreigner named Waxon.
“If that is the case, can you please introduce the senior executives of Hunters Guild to me when you get the chance? I would like to join Hunters Guild here in Gronga. Of course, it’d be best if you can introduce Waxon to me,” Jonathan said casually.
He continued, “As a reward, I’ll ask Cecilia to invest in a movie and cast you as the female lead…”
“Really?” Freida was thrilled to hear that Jonathan was going to ask Cecilia to invest in a movie and cast favonovel.com as the female lead. Her eyes sparkled at the prospect of a big break in the entertainment industry.
She had been a struggling actress in Gronga for five to six years. Oftentimes, favonovel.com had sold favonovel.com body in exchange for favors from the film producers and directors. However, favonovel.com was never given a lead role in any movie. In fact, favonovel.com was not even cast as a second lead.
Freida was mindful that favonovel.com did not have a good family backing nor a strong backing in the industry.
The directors and film producers were merely toying with favonovel.com feelings. After getting intimate with her, they would only cast favonovel.com in a minor role to placate her.
“Certainly!” Jonathan turned to look at Cecilia who concurred, “Of course, Master’s promise is also my promise. If you do as Master says, I’ll invest one hundred million to film a movie and engage the renowned director in Gronga, Fabrizio Dabato. I may be able to get one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Gronga to be the male lead. And you will be the female lead.”
Wow! Gronga’s renowned director, Fabrizio Dabato! And one of the Four Heavenly Kings as the male lead, with me as the female lead!
Even a fresh graduate would be able to gain fame overnight acting with such a dream cast, let alone me!
It was a dream come true for Freida. All favonovel.com needed to do was to introduce the senior executives of Hunters Guild to Cecilia’s Master. She realized that the best decision favonovel.com had made in favonovel.com life was to join Hunters Guild.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Hansley. I won’t disappoint you.” Freida hurriedly made favonovel.com stand, afraid that Cecilia might go back on favonovel.com words.
“If you fail me, I’ll make sure you disappear from the entertainment industry in Gronga,” Cecilia warned the woman coldly.
“No, no. I will certainly not!” Freida hurriedly shook favonovel.com head.
Just then, there was a commotion coming from beside them. A woman dressed in a black gown stormed into the cafe.
