Chapter 282
Zephyr red at him. “Shut up if you don’t know how to talk!”
Nichs could not even shut his mouth since it was cracked open to a wide grin.
For some reason, Zephyr seemed to stand innately against Neil.
Actually, that was not true. It was more like he could not stand all the men who approached
Cordelia.
“Alright,e on!” Nichs patted Zephyr’s shoulder. “Cordelia’s just interviewed him once. It’s her
job. You don’t have to get so petty, right?”
“I’m not.” Zephyr was stubborn and took a big gulp of beer.
“It’s written on your face, and you still deny it!” Nichs chortled. “Look, why don’t you get Neil to
attend the event for me? I’ll make sure he embarrasses himself there!”
It was only then Zephyr looked better. Both men exchanged a look with a smirk.
“Am I such a petty person?” Zephyr spat and pulled out his phone to call Mr. Smith.
“Figure out something to engage Neil to attend Mr. Thompson’s event. Be polite when you talk to
him.”
Nichs was rendered speechless.
“He’s an award-winning actor. Don’t embarrass him in public,” Zephyr said seriously before smiling.
“Why don’t you take the chance and talk to him? Best if you could sign him!”
“Hah, sign him and then torture him slowly?”
Zephyr nced at him. “I have no grudge against him. Why should I torture him? I’m considering for
you, so he’ll earn money for you like his life depends on it. Yourpany will grow strong then!”
Nichs pursed his lips and chuckled. Make Neil earn money like his life depended on it? Would he
have a chance to ept interviews then? Without a slot for an interview, Cordelia would not be able
to meet him.
‘Ah, Mr. Z Hamerton has thought far!’
…
Sol Entertainment’s event was grand. Other than a good part of people in the entertainment
industry, famous names in the business and political spheres were also there that day.
Neil’s appearance dropped many jaws.
“Mr. Harris is here? This is unbelievable!”
“Didn’t they say that Mr. Thompson invited him a few times, but he wouldn’t budge?”
“Heh, he’s just an actor, no matter how amazing he is! Who’s Mr. Thompson? He used to be a gang
leader. How could Neil fight him?”
Amidst the whisperedments and discussion, Nichs and Neil shook hands and took a photo
standing together. Both of them wore polite smiles. They looked distant, but the picture of them
together was enough of a discussion topic for the others.
Some reporters even began drafting on the spot, iming that Neil would definitely sign under Sol
Entertainment and begin a new journey.
Cordelia went in as a reporter, so she could not help but frown and tug at her chief editor when she
saw him drafting the news like everyone else.
“What?” The chief editor’s eyes stayed glued to hisptop screen, and his plump hands danced
across the keyboard like they were possessed.
“It’s not nice to write that without any evidence!” Cordelia said directly.
“What do you know!?” The chief editor snorted. “Everyone’s writing it like this. If we don’t follow suit,
will you be held responsible when we don’t have the views and traffic?”

Cordelia said, troubled, “But what if Neil doesn’t sign with Sol Entertainment?”
“How’s that possible!?” The chief editor looked at her in disdain. “Cordelia, you’ve interviewed Neil
Harris. Do you think he’s someone ignorant?”
Cordelia gave it a thought and shook her head.
“That’s right!” The chief editor said, “Neil must be able to discern what’s good for him and not,
having reached this level! Nichs Thompson’s well-versed in both thewful and uwful worlds.
If Neil doesn’t keep Nichs happy, isn’t it akin to waiting for Nichs to cut him up?”
Cordelia was rendered speechless. She sighed and went to the side to sit down.
She remembered that Zephyr had said he woulde today as well, but there were too many
reporters here, and he did not like making an appearance in front of the press, so he woulde
later.
