Chapter 11
Everyone was stunned at the sight of Jamie as he walked out of the luxurious helicopter. For those who had no idea who he was, they were simply taken aback by the fact that this supposed member of the Ashford family looked quite young.For these oblivious people, they began whispering to each other about it.“What the hell? This guy looks to be in his early twenties. The way Mr. Goodwin was talking about him, I was certain they would be around the same age, but this guy looks to be as young as his daughter.”“I know, right? Though he's incredibly hot. Fucking hell, look at that suit on him. You can tell his physique is banging. Getting a chance to fuck such a hot shot wouldn't be bad at all.”Meanwhile, those who recognized Jamie were left too stunned to speak right now. Three of those people are Amanda, Megan, and Olivia.Meghan shook her head with great confusion. “C….Could this really be the same no-good loser we met earlier today?! What exactly is going on here?!”Olivia shook he

The fact that the son of an Oscar-winning executive producer and the son of the Reynold family's business partner were also siding with the Reynold brothers made the audience who knew nothing about Jamie, suspicious of his true identity.Is Jamie truly a member of the Ashford family? Or is he a fraud as he's being accused of?There was something that everyone here was unaware of though. These five military-dressed bodyguards, who arrived with Jamie, are part of a group of nine bodyguards that were assigned by his newly assigned personal assistant, Tom Yates, to protect the long-lost grandson of Patriarch Raymond Ashford.Seeing that the group of four arrogant boys were trying to overpower Jamie with their insults and demeanor, Stacy quickly intervened, coming to Jamie's aid.“You guys, aren't you ashamed of yourselves?! You claim that you're better than Jamie, but the fact that you four have joined forces against him only proves how inferior you feel I'm his presence!”The group of

Those in the audience who were closer to the center of the attention gasped, surprised as they could see the phone that Jamie just pulled out of the pocket of his suit coat.As for those who were standing farther away from Jamie, they couldn’t see the details of the phone, and yet, the lights from overhead shining down on the yacht were reflected by that phone.“Wait, holy shit! Is the phone case made of diamond?!”“Like, you see it too, right? I thought my eyes were deceiving or something! That phone cover is made of pure diamond! What phone is that?!”Amanda jolted up from her seat in shock, her eyes glued to that hone in Jamie's hands as she whispered. “Ain't no way. Where did he get such an expensive phone?”Seeing Amanda's reaction, Meghan and Olivia, seated at the same table, also glanced at each other before they involuntarily stood up to get a clear view of that phone.’Everyone was glued to that phone, and its luxurious look didn't fail to pull attention from Nathan, Jonatha

Mr. Goodwin saw no problem with this. Even if Jamie turned out to be a member of the Ashford family. He can be escorted off this yacht if he doesn't have the invitation card.A waiter was tasked to pass this information to Tyson who finally relaxed after being given a way to chase this annoying kid out of here.He pointed at Jamie. “You piece of trash! Since you have no invitation card, I'll evict you like the garbage that you are!’He quickly signaled to the bodyguards from his Crook family. “Men beat this pisser up and throw him overboard. I wanna see if he can negotiate with the sharks!”Sonia was pissed off. “What the hell? You can't just…”Tyson suddenly turned to the Reynold brothers, Seth, and Danny. “Hold those two ladies down!”The four young men were more than happy to obey Tyson's orders. They utilized their physical strength to prevent Sinus and Stacy from saving Jamie.Jamie, on the other hand, smirked with a cold stare. “Already taking action against me without verifica

Minutes later, Jamie had convinced the Goodwin father and daughter with his made-up story.According to Jamie, he had been noticed by the Ashford subordinate who was supposed to attend this party about a year ago due to his incredible top-tier academic performance.As it turns out, the Ashford family had established a scholarship program in over 100 top-tier universities across the continent, and Hollywood University was one of them.Those individuals with access to top-secret information were aware that the Ashford family, despite practically owning Hollywood University, still donates billions of dollars annually to various projects. And one of these funded projects includes an extensive scholarship program that Jamie is listed on.For each university that was funded, the Ashford family assigned a subordinate to represent them. And it appears that the Ashford subordinate that Sonia's father, Kennedy Goodwin, had invited to this birthday party, is the Ashford family's representative

Jamie smiled up at the incredibly gorgeous young woman as he took her hand, feeling the warmth of her slender and incredibly smooth palm.Seeing their held hands, Kennedy immediately showed concern. “Hey, my dear, don't go out holding hands like that, okay? I don't want to have to deal with another complaint from your future….”Sonia stomped his high heels in anger, cutting her father off. “Dad, Tyson is and will never be my future husband! I absolutely refuse! Besides, if Mr. & Mrs. Crooks say anything, just inform them that Jamie is now being backed by a subordinate of the Ashford family. I'd like to see if they'd dare mess with him.”She ignored her father's babbling as she pulled Jamie right out of the room, followed by the Ashford bodyguards.Jamie couldn't help but smile waly at Sonia. He didn't know she could be this daring.A minute later, the guests were surprised when they saw Sonia guiding Jamie back on deck by his hand. Of course, the daring Sonia ignored everyone's face,

Before Jamie left the birthday party, he attempted to return Stacy's money back to her, but then, with a snack on his shoulder and a disapproving frown on her face, she declined.“Listen to me, Jamie, I don't care how rich you are now, don't you dare return my gifts back to me, do you hear me? It's almost like you're looking down on me.”Jamie quickly held her hands. “Stacy, come on. You know that's not true. I would never look down on you. I just don't want you to go through this month without money.”Jamie smiled lovingly at his former stepsister. “I'm aware that the money you sent to me that night was your entire allowance for this month. It's not right that a beauty goddess of HU would spend the next thirty-one days without spending on herself. I'm not lacking money now, so give me the honor of giving a bit back to you, okay?”It was hard for Stacy to reject this offer at this point. Jamie wanted to repay a fraction of her kindness. It would be wrong to not accept it. Thus, she

Kennedy Goodwin walked over to his daughter. “Surely, this must be from the Ashford subordinate. Despite not showing up today, he still remembered to send you a gift through Jamie.”He was very satisfied to see that his persistence to acquaint himself with the Ashford subordinate didn't turn out to be in vain.This gift was definitely something only an affiliate of the Ashford family could afford to give out.Sonia’s group of friends rushed to her side, begging to tag along with her whenever she decided to use the gift card. After a while, they urged her to open the second box. This was a bit bigger than the first one.Stacy pointed at it. “This one is definitely from Jamie. I wonder what he got you though?”Under everyone's gaze, Sonia opened the second box, and she gasped at what she saw.One of Sonia's girlfriends chuckled with amusement. “Sonia, this is an Amore Eterno necklace! It features 25 diamond solitaires, 4 heart-shaped diamonds, and more than 20 round jewels. It's worth

As the jet was about to take off, Jamie received a call from the director of St. Mary's Hospital. With a smirk on his face, he picked up the call, knowing fully well what this call was about. “Director Rowling, how may I help you?”The director cleared his throat before he uttered a word. “President Jamie, I hope you're having a pleasant morning. I wanted to update you on the situation with Mr. Barnard Reynolds. I….uh, allowed a doctor to treat him.”Jamie faked a slightly displeased tone. “And why would you do that without my permission?”The director sounded very nervous now. “I'm sorry, Sir Jamie. It's just that time was running out. If we had failed to give him the treatment past the scheduled time, it could really lead to complications in his health. I'm just trying to avoid lawsuits from the Reynold Agency's CEO.”Jamie chuckled lightly, easing the tension through the call. “Relax, director. I'm not mad at all. I expected you to take the proper action. It's fine. From now on, d

Jamie shifted his focus to sightseeing as the car zoomed across the roads of the island city. Though the city was smaller, it was incredibly advanced. For one, the technology imbued into the daily lives of the island inhabitants was superior to that of the rest of the world.It seems the civilization on this island is solely funded by the Ashford family's futuristic tech company, AS-Crows Tech Corp.As the convoy proceeded forward, Jamie noticed that the road had become more private. There are barely any other vehicles on this elevated road. Each side of the surrounding path is filled with vibrant forest and even signs of wildlife.Soon, the road opened up to a huge gate, held up by tall fences that stretched beyond the limits of his eyesight.Tom Yates turned to Jamie as he gestured to the gates. “Young Master, welcome to the Michael Estate-123.”Jamie figured out that the ‘-123’ came from the number assigned to his father's island. Since he had up to 150 islands, this must be no.1
