Chapter 2020
What?
Jaeden''s brows furrowed.
Although the parents wouldn''t be too concerned whether they were able to watch Hermione perform, it would certainly be a bummer for the children because they loved Hermione''s songs a lot, and they have been eagerly waiting for their idol to perform live.
The children''s disappointment was palpable when they suddenly learned that their idol wasn''t going to turn up.
Even Queenie couldn''t help but tug at the corner of Nathan''s shirt as she said timidly, "Papa, is Hermione noting to sing for us? I really want to meet her in person and hear her sing live."
Learning that Hermione couldn''te, all the children started crying and mored for her toe and sing.
Penny looked at Nathan helplessly as she stated, "Hubby, do you have a way to invite Hermione here?"
While Nathan remained silent, suddenly his ear vibrated with a coldugh, "Haha, Hermione is a famous actress, a lot of high officials and nobles have invited her to dinner and to perform with loads of money. Even if Nathan begged her, she wouldn''te."
Nathan''s face darkened after hearing that.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.
Nathan and the rest of the group nced in the direction from which theughter came.
While being apanied by his men, a richlooking gentleman in a white suit strode over with his head held high.
That rich-looking gentleman was none other than Branson.
Many people at the scene knew Branson was the heir of the Brimmotopia Group, so they gathered around and said curtly, "Greetings, Mr. Fuller!" Branson, however, did not take those people who were buttering him up seriously as he walked straight up to Nathan and Penny.
As he smiled at Penny, he said, "Ms. Smith, if you think your husband will be able to invite Hermione here sessfully, then I guess you''ll be disappointed. I, on the other hand, will be able to help you bring her here."
After that, he instructed his subordinate, "Ray, go and personally invite Queen of Vocals, Hermione, toe here and sing for the
children."
Ray answered in a deep voice, "Yes, Mr. Fuller."
Ray and his two other men hurriedly sought Hermione after discovering the hotel where she was staying.
Presidential Suite, Horizon Hotel.
While being surrounded by makeup artists, assistants, and a few bodyguards, Hermione was busy applying her makeup in front of the mirror.
Ray exined the purpose of the visit, then said with a smile: "Ms. Sorokina, Mr. Fuller would like for you to go over and sing two songs, and he will pay you four million at your usual rate."
Hermione scoffed while she casually applied her makeup, "Four million, that was my previous asking price. Now it''s five million, which means
ten million for two songs.
FurthermoreД''m having dinner with Brimmopolis richest man, Jerome. Larrington, tonight. "Are you
expecting me to reject his invitation to sing for you? Unless Mr. Fuller is willing to pay twenty million, otherwise there is no need to talk further."
Ray uttered, "I''m sorry, Mr. Fuller mentioned that the most he can offer are five million."
After hearing that, Hermione took offense to his words immediately. "How dare you bargain, do you think this is a market? If you can''t afford twenty million, get out of here. I''m not here to serve you poor bastards."
Ray didn''t expect the huge celebrity, who was usually so polished in front of the camera, to be as vulgar and rude as a shrew in private. While he was about to leave with his two men after he had cursed softly, Hermione unexpectedly heard him and became furious immediately. She yelled angrily, "All these retarded fans who don''t have anything better to do than harass me all day long. Guards, kick them out!" Hermione was a high-worth individual and she was usually apanied by a dozen of bodyguards, all of whom are very skilled.
At hermand, Ray and his men were dragged from the building and thrown into the streets by her bodyguards.
Subsequently, Ray returned to the campfire party in a defeated state and told Branson about what had happened. Then he uttered embarrassingly, "I''m sorry, Mr. Fuller. We weren''t able to invite the Queen of Vocals, Hermione here."
Branson did not expect Hermione to behave so arrogantly and demand such a huge sum of money from him.
Even though his family is wealthy, his father was the one who provided all the funds. His allowance was only three million per month, so he could not afford to spend twenty million all at once.
Furthermore, he couldn''t bring himself to pay twenty million just to win a smile from a beautiful woman.
At that moment, he turned to Penny
l
and said awkwardly, "Hermione''s asking price has gone through the roof and she has been invited to apany the richest man in Brimmopolis, so even I couldn'' invite her. But I can''t be med for this, I dare say that I can''t invite her, and no one will be able to invite her here either. So, we should invite another celebrity to this event
instead!"
As soon as he said that, Nathan began tough lightheartedly while he uttered, "I was wondering how powerful Fuller family''s heir was, but I didn''t expect that he couldn''t even invite a ywright."
In an angry tone, Branson asked, "I can''t invite her, but can you?"
Nathan smiled as he retorted, "What makes you think that I won''t be able to ask her toe here?"
Branson sneered, "Naha, so you''re
saying you can get her here. What nonsense are you talking about? If you''re capable, just ask her toe here and let us see how capable you are. If you don''t dare to go, then I urge Ms. Smith to ditch this cowardly man as soon as possible. It''s better for her to be with me than with him!"
After hearing that, Penny''s face flushed with anger.
"What if I can get Hermione toe here?" Nathan asked calmly.
Branson instantly replied, "If you''re able to get Hermione toe here, I will get down on my knees and call you my father. However, if you can''t, then you can kneel down and bark like a dog."
