Chapter 468 The Harris Family Monopolizes Entertainment Industry
Remus immediately got up to greet Treyton in an ingratiating manner.
“You’re finally here, Mr. Treyton. Please, have a seat.”
With furrowed brows, Treyton snapped unceremoniously, “Are you annoyed that I’mte?”
“Oh, of course not. I’m honored to have my restaurant be blessed with your presence. How could I
possibly criticize you?” Remus then pped his own mouth lightly and smiled apologetically. “I
shouldn’t have said that. I hope you don’t take it to heart, Mr. Treyton.”
Treyton glowered at him, feeling reluctantly satisfied with his attitude.
Being no fool, Remus quickly sensed Treyton’s hostility toward him. It was obvious that Treyton was
asserting his dominance to bruise Remus ego when he snapped at thetter as soon as he came in.
However, Remus needed his help, so he wore a smile on his face and humbly invited Treyton to his
seat before diligently pouring wine for thetter.
“Mr. Treyton, let me offer you a toast first as my apology.”
ncing at the wine ss next to his hand, Treyton did not reach out to hold it. With a cold voice, he
prompted, “Cut to the chase. I’m too busy to see you beat around the bush.”
Remus was stunned for a while.
Having been dissed again, he felt awkward. He had no choice but to put down his wine ss and tell
him about the purpose of the meeting embarrassingly. “I wonder if you know about the trending topic
about Abbot Group recently.”
Saying nothing. Treyton stared at him coldly, with an unfriendly attitude.
Remus had no choice but to lower his head and go on, “Two days ago, it suddenly broke out on the
inte that there is a problem with Abbot Group’s food safety. The news exaggerates things, but the
netizens believe it. The business of the hotels and restaurants under Abbot Group has been slow these
few days, and our stock price is still falling. I’ve spent a lot of money ande up with many solutions,
but the news remains popr. I don’t know whom mypany has offended that it has to experience
such targeted hostility.” With a bitter face, he continued to plead with a lowly stance, “Mr. Treyton, you
own half of the entertainment industry. You only need to raise your hand and make a phone call to cool
things down. I’ll give my all to get you whatever you want!”
Treyton had been waiting for him to make such a promise. “I can help you remove the trending topic
about Abbot Group and even rify that its food safety issue is just a rumor to restore its reputation.”
Remus was pleasantly surprised, as if a good deal had fallen into hisp. “You’re the best, Mr. Treyton!
You’re basically like a god! Whatever you need, I will spare no effort to help you get it!”
With a pursed lips smile, Treyton raised his wine ss elegantly to Remus.
ttered, Remus hurriedly raised his wine ss with both hands and clinked it against Treyton’s before
drinking up the wine with sincerity.
Treyton, who merely took a sip, said, “What I need is very simple. Just call off your engagement with
Jennifer Newton.”
The Harris Family Monopolizes Entertainment Industry
Remus almost choked on the wine.
He knew that Treyton had dated Jennifer in the past, but he did not expect Treyton to take her so
seriously.
“What’s the matter? You don’t want to?” Treyton asked with raised eyebrows after seeing that Remus
did not speak.
Remus was caught between a rock and a hard ce. “Mr. Treyton, do you have any other needs
besides this?”
Treyton pursed his lips with a gloomy expression, not responding to his question.
Sensing his displeasure, Remus had no choice but to exin, “To tell you the truth, Mr. Treyton, I took
the initiative to ask Mr. Craig for her hand. If I call it off, Mr. Craig probably won’t return the engagement
gifts.”
Not only that, he would also offend Craig.
Moreover, given how much Treyton cared about Jennifer, he would definitely not allow Remus to ce
the me for calling off the engagement on Jennifer. Therefore, the Abbot family would have to take
the me.
No matter what choices he made. Remus would offend someone.
Ignoring what Remus said, Treyton made it clear that it was non-negotiable. “You have one day to think
about it. You either call off the engagement, or there’ll be no deal.”
After smoothing out the wrinkles on his expensive trousers, Treyton got up and stared at Remus
condescendingly.
“By calling off the engagement, you’ll offend Craig, and Abbot Group will recover after a brief two-day
decline in its stock price. By not calling off the engagement, you’ll offend the entire Harris family, and
Abbot Group will never recover from the setback and will go into bankruptcy!”
After making the intimidating remarks, Treyton left the private room without looking back.
“Mr. Treyton. Mr. Treyton,” Remus shouted but failed to stop Treyton in his tracks.
Sitting limply in the chair, he noticed that Treyton had said “the entire Harris family,” which filled his
heart with regret.
Originally, he thought that marrying Jennifer would allow him to form a connection with the Newton
family, but to his dismay, he offended Treyton because of it.
He had suffered great losses by straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel.
Sighing, he took out his phone and called the PR department of Abbot Group. “Go and find out who
has the most say in the entertainment industry besides Treyton. Now.”
Two minutester, the PR department sent a text message to his mobile phone.
There were only three words in the text: Gwendolyn Shalders Harris.
Gwendolyn’s Angle Corporation was the most valuable entertainmentpany other than Treyton’s
entertainmentpany. The former even had many top celebrities such as Jennifer, Joaquin, Jayden,
and
The most popr talent shows in the variety show industry were all nned and released by Angle
Corporation.
Gwendolyn was considered to be the person who had control over the other half of the entertainment
industry besides Treyton.
Remus was bereft of speech.
The entertainment industry has been taken over by the Harris family. It’s basically ruled by the siblings.
Judging by Treyton’s attitude, I think I’ll probably get the same response from Gwendolyn if I go to her.
Laying his head down on the table, Remus groaned in misery, not knowing what to do.
When the tea party was over, all the socialites, who had had a great time, bade Gwendolyn goodbye
and drove home leisurely in their own luxury cars.
Jasmine also left with Triss, chatting.
Standing by the railing of the restaurant, Gwendolyn allowed the wind to tousle her hair, giving her a
different kind of beauty.
She gracefully tucked her hair behind her ears and touched her earlobes that were void of earrings.
She then quickly sent a message to Nico: It’s done. Proceed as nned.
When it was time to get off work, Craig adjusted his military attire and left his office at Federal Bureau
of Investigation with folded arms.
As soon as he was in the corridor, he saw Cedrick, who was also in a military uniform, standing by the
railing on the second floor, looking down at the hall on the first floor of the building.

Cedrick was often dressed in in clothes while on duty and did not always change into his military
uniform when he came to Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Hence, Craig was stunned for a moment upon seeing Cedrick in such formal attire before walking over.
“What a coincidence, Mr. Jenson. What brings you here?” he asked with a sheepish grin.
Hearing his voice, Cedrick turned around. The military uniform with medals had added to his good
looks, making him look righteous andmanding.
Looking down, he replied in a deep voice that was void of emotions, “It’s not a coincidence. I’m here to
see you.”
Craig was nonplussed for a moment before he hurriedly stood upright with his palms touching the seam
of his trousers to give Cedrick a salute. “At yourmand, Mr. Jenson.”
Brushing past him, Cedrick walked toward his office while instructing, “Come with me.”
