Chapter 311
A month has passed since Jamie and Arlene Gilliard began seeing one another. It was safe to say that their relationship had been getting stronger as time went on.Arlene initially didn't have much to be worried in terms of the kind of person Jamie is. With the way they met, it was clear that he had no ulterior motive for being with her. Then there's the fact that she's the one who wanted to be with him. Through this one month, they went on multiple dates, and she found herself liking the guy more as they progressed with their meet-ups…..and hook-ups.Arlene found herself getting pulled in by Jamie's aura as a whole. There was just something extraordinarily magnetic about him.By the end of their first month, Arlene found herself falling deeper for Jamie. They went from dates, to spending the night at each other's apartments.With this kind of strengthening relationship, it would likely become harder to hide from the public eye, especially when both eyes aren't alien to the media, ev

Jamie had no nervousness, neither on his face nor in his demeanor from the second he arrived on campus with his crew. The second he stepped out of one of his five customized Bugatti Centodieci, worth $19 million each, Jamie had many eyes on him, and yet, none of the casual students dared to approach him.If this were in the past, when Jamie had no status, wealth, or backing, many of the students in his faculty and the neighboring faculty buildings would have rushed over to outright harass him for all sorts of information regarding his relationship with the famous Hollywood actress, Arlene Gilliard.Of course, if this were the past, Jamie, most people wouldn't have believed that someone like him could possibly capture the attention of someone like Arlene Gilliard.Even if the news did confirm it, there would still be a huge weight of skepticism amongst these students, with the logical excuse being used would be that the reporters and bloggers in California have no idea what they're t
Chapter 313
About a quarter of an hour later, General Stella and the member of The Bridge Crow whom she assigned with her on campus duty for the day came over to send these students away, allowing Jamie and his friends privacy once again.Sonia gazed at Jamie for a while. “What are you gonna do about this issue?”Jamie glanced out the empty doorway of the private dining room beige shrugging his shoulders. “I'll have my bodyguards enter the faculty building from now on. Until the hype dies down, and these students calm down, it's best to have Stella and her team close by.”Sonia sighed, eyes focusing more on the handsome face of Jamie. “I meant the situation with Arlene, Jamie? What are you gonna do about that?”Jamie's eyebrows rose slightly before creasing together to form a serious expression as he thought this through. “Well, I'm not really thinking too much about it. I'm sorta leaving the next step in the hands of Arlene herself.”“Honestly, I don't mind whether we go public with our relatio
Chapter 314
Due to the disparity in popularity, there's a procedure that is enacted to ensure that the relationship between the two actors playing the lead roles wouldn't be resisted too hard.Create a compatibility narrative before the production is even announced officially to the world. As long as the fans of both lead actors see these two hanging out together a lot, they will begin to warm up to the idea of them starting in a show together.“That way, by the time the official announcement of the production is made public, the fans would, for the most part, be overjoyed.”Billy nodded his head, now grasping what was going on. “Oh, I see. It's a pretty smart tactic.”Stacy shrugged her shoulders. “It's not something new though. But it works most of the time, so it is quite effective.’Sonia hummed in response. “Unfortunately, with this revelation of Arlene Gilliard dating someone else, the plan is currently falling through the trenches. If damage control doesn't take effect in this situation,

The meeting invitation through the email that Jamie had received did not have any date on it, though there was a range that Chalkers Agency had provided a time frame for Jamie to respond to, giving them a fixed time for which he would be available for the meeting.Yet, the managing team for Arlene Gilliard would have never expected Jamie to come that same day. In fact, Jamie's appearance at the agency building was made mere hours after they sent out the email to him.It should be noted that this was an act of respect made by Chalkers Agency. It took a very brief research on their part to find out that the guy with whom the dating scandal against their artist had unfolded, is no ordinary person.“The young man who went from being nothing to the wealthiest student in Hollywood University.”“The scholarship student, who remains the highest academic performer in the entire university, maintains his grades even after removing himself from the scholarship list, and becomes a fully privileg

Jamie walked in with Tom Yates, Stella Atorro, two lieutenants, and ten soldiers. The aura with which he walked into the building of Chalkers Agency was so staggering that even the security guards at the entrance couldn't help but feel his legs threatening to give out under the weight of his own body.The security guards took deep gulps of their own saliva as they unconsciously took a couple of steps back from the entrance, watching as the group walked inside.Jamie Omar, formerly known as Jamie Reynold, was already known. The managing team of Arlene Gilliard had confirmed their superior of his supposed arrival. That's why they didn't even bother to stop him.With his identity automatically confirmed, and with the expected ways in which wealthy folks behave, it wasn't shocking that Jamie walked in without so much as a simple acknowledgement made towards them.Jamie went straight to one of the receptionists in the foyer of the building, but said nothing to the man he met there. Instea

Tom and Jamie had conversed a bit before exiting the car and entering the entertainment agency building. Jamie was not to say a word during the entire meeting without speaking to his personal assistant first.The meeting began, with each side facing one another. Arlene Gilliard and her managerial team on one side of the long meeting table, and Jamie and his team on the other table.The long table was actually oval-shaped with the inner section open. Thus, there was quite a space between both sides. Arlene Gilliard's team began a series of questions at first, with the stated intention that they wanted to know more about Jamie, the guy that their actor is dating, before proceeding with which course of action is more appropriate to follow through with.Jamie wasn't a fool, though. He knew that this managerial team simply wanted to weigh the pros and cons of him dating one of their star clients, and then decide what to support.Thanks to Sonia and Stacy, Jamie was now aware that Arlene

Jamie and everyone else in the meeting room could see a middle-aged man in a suit leading a group of people into the room. Among them, is a younger man, probably in his twenties, looking a little more informal than the rest.Jamie could tell that this man, who looked slightly older than me, had to be a celebrity as well.At that moment, Tom Yates whispered in Jamie's ear. “Young Master, that young man is Conan Grain, the top actor who is being prepared to star alongside Miss Gillard in the long-term fantasy series.”Jamie nodded his head. Looking at the actor, he was clearly handsome with a lean muscular figure, but there was an artifact in his eyes as he walked into the room.Jamie didn't want to pay too much attention to this actor, though, as he found him too easy to read. Instead, he turned to the middle-aged man leading everyone into the meeting room.He then whispered to his personal assistant. “And who's the leader?”Tom Yates immediately grasped who his young master was refer

Jamie ruined slightly at this. “What do you mean, Stella?”Stella scoffed as she gazed at the president, who sat with his chest raised, like a king on a throne, looking down on his subjects. “I'm confused that this president may not be well-versed in the skills it takes to get into his position. I suspect he might have gotten there through….inheritance, maybe?”Tom Yates chuckled at this, as he whispered to them. “You're not wrong, General. President Dump inherited this company from his father. But he's not exactly the best at doing his job. Why do you think he has so many secretaries with him, just for this meeting?”The secretary, permitted to read the contract immediately, whispered to President Donald Dump. “Sir, this contract is legit. I can't find any sign that alludes to fraud in it.”President Donald could help but frown deeper at Jamie and his few, wondering what their game was exactly. He whispered back to the secretary. “Tell me, what are the actual offers?”The secretary

Picking up the call, the president of Chalkers Agency spoke in hushed tones with the CEO of Pluribus Agency for a couple of minutes.From everyone's point of view, the call was simple and their air wasn't tense at all. But for Jamie, Stella, Tom, and the soldiers of The Bridge Crow who were in this meeting room with everyone else, they heard the whole conversation with their heightened hearing ability, as well as picking up on the micro changes in the expressions and overall demeanor of President Donald while on that phone call.Admittedly, the Chalkers Agency's president was very good at controlling his emotions when it truly mattered, but he really couldn't hide much from the highly evolved and heavily trained eyes and ears of these AS99 agents in disguise.Jamie and his crew saw it all. President Donald was incredibly pissed off having to listen to President Harvey Walker of Pluribus Agency remind him that their agencies have always been United on all fronts. So Donald should be
