Chapter 79: I Don’t Expect That You Still Remember Me
Three days away from the centennial celebration of ST Hotel, the popr young hunk, Lawrence
caused the ST Hotel celebration to be trending and it was the first ce on the trending list for a
whole day.
“During the celebration, those who stay in the ST Hotel, Central District Branch can participate in the
celebration lottery of that day. There will be five winners for the first prize in which Lawrence will
apany the winners fully during a five-day tour in the Maldives! Gosh.”
After this news was released by ST Hotel, it set off a frenzy on the Inte. Lawrence was one of the
people who debuted after the two-month star-making show. This batch of young hunks who debuted
from the star-making show was very popr and their fans were extraordinarily frenzied about them.
Once their photo albums were released, the albums had been instantly snapped up and sold out.

Going out with Lawrence alone for a tour was simply something that millions of fans craved for.
After ST Hotel appeared on the trending list of Weibo, its booking hotline was called by many people.
“She surprisingly can think of such a method!”
In the hotel room, Vi had just gotten the news and she was so angry that her blood boiled, “There
fans are too devoid of rationality! Are they crazy? Just because of these few young men, they spend so
much money to stay in a hotel with such a bad rating?”
Her agent, Jason, was standing on the side, “Aren’t all fans naturally like this?”
“The cheapest room in ST Hotel costs two to three thousand yuan per night. If they are able to pay
such an amount, why don’t they go to buy concert tickets! What for toe along for the ride, this is a
lottery, not everyone has the opportunity to be the winner!”
“Not only Lawrence’s fans, but I also hear that ST Hotel hasunched a total of five actors. The first
prize will have five winners. The selected fans are able to travel together with the respective actor and
there is also a whole live shot. Ray-Trace Media also intends to make this celebration directly as a
travel program of a celebrity and his fan.”
“Howe ourpany is also involved?” Vi turned red in fury.
“After all, Mr. Beckham is the main shareholder of ourpany. Ray-Trace Media and ST Group have
always been in a friendly cooperative rtionship. This celebration has not begun yet but a frenzy is
being set off on the Inte. So, won’t thepany seize this golden opportunity and hurriedly strike
while the iron is hot?”
Jason sighed, “So, let’s not antagonize that woman for the time being, Vi. If thepany executives
know about it, they will think we are deliberately damaging the benefit of thepany.”
Vi’s face was full of resentment. She was so angry that she smashed everything that was on the
table.
On the other hand, Hayden looked at the fan feedback on the Inte and the hotel performance which
gradually doubled and became even more. She still did not dare to cken and kept deducting the
overspending budget to calcte the remaining profit.
The good thing was that these young hunks had not yet officially debuted so the price they wanted was
not too high. This was also a relief to her.
“Ms. Downey, there is still onest actor left, have you decided about which actor to find? We need to
go ande to an agreement with that actor as soon as possible.”
Hayden nced at the list, “I’ll go and negotiate with thest actor alone.”
After Jeff left, Hayden stared at the actor information on the table and curled into a meaningful smile.
The artist’s name was Freddie.
She was extremely busy recently so she did not expect that Freddie had signed a contract with a media
company. After participating in a singing program, hepletely changed his career from being a cello
yer to a singer and he had recently gotten quite a number of fans.
So, she intended to give thest remaining slot for an actor to Freddie.
Although his rallying point was not as good as the previous four actors, with the presence of such a
cello yer, the hotel level was also enhanced, right?
On the day of the celebration…
The entirewn in front of ST Hotel was decorated with colourful balloons. The ribbons were flying and
it made the scene looked very festive. The lobby was also decorated with decorations that were
resplendent and magnificent.
Apart from thepanies that had been cooperating with ST Hotel for years, customers staying at ST
Hotel during the celebration were also included in the list of invited guests. The traffic coordination
department surrounded the hotel with a cordon as actors would go in and out. Therefore, safety
measures had to be done in advance.
Being the main person in charge of this celebration, Hayden needed to give a speech on stage before
the opening ceremony.
She was dressed in a grey bandeau long dress. The end of her dress was embellished with white lotus
flowers. She slightly held the skirt while walking onto the stage elegantly and she looked so charming
that people could not move their eyes away from her.
“Even the senior manager of ST Hotel now is also so young and beautiful?”
“She’s also very capable as this celebration is nned by her.”
Hayden looked around and bowed elegantly.
“Thank you all for spending your time to personally attend the centennial celebration of ST Hotel. I’m
Hayden, the guest room department manager of ST Hotel. As I started working just three months ago,
most of you don’t know me yet but I hope that in the future, I have the privilege to have more
opportunities of coborating with fellow bosses, customers and friends…”
She had memorized the speech script well before going on stage. Her way of speaking and
mannerisms were immensely calm and steady. Some humorous jokes were also interspersed from
time to time. The guests at the bottom were smiling and looking at her with admiration.
In the crowd, a tall figure came. His height of 1.87 meters made him looked particrly outstanding.
“Mr. Beckham, you have to go back to Shanghai to have business talk tonight. Youe back so early
and anxiously to take a look, is it that you worry about the celebration? I feel that Ms. Downey has
arranged it quite well.”
Joseph kept gazing at the stage, “Is it?”
The assistant hesitated for a while, “But if you never ask the finance department to add twenty percent
to the budget, perhaps it won’t have achieved such a good effect.”
Joseph nced at him, “You talk a bit too much today.”
The assistant shrank back. Had he said something wrong?
While they were talking, an old and dignified voice suddenly sounded behind them.
“Mr. Beckham.”
Joseph turned his head and saw a figure in his fifties. The figure was dressed decently in a suit and his
back was upright despite his age. It was just that he seemed to becking spirit as his eye sockets
were deep and showing some tiredness.
“Mr. Downey?”
The person who came was Hayden’s father, Bentley, who was the chairman of the Downey Group.
“It’s me. I don’t expect that you still remember me.” Bentley looked indifferent, “May I talk to you for a
minute?”
Joseph frowned and nodded. Before he left, he nced at the stage. Hayden had just finished her
speech and was reced by the host.
At this moment, the open-air coffee bar on the second floor of ST Hotel was empty because of the
celebration. Nobody was around except for the staff.
The two of them ordered two cups of tea and sat face to face under the sunshade.
“Why don’t you ask me why Ie here?” Bentley spoke first.
Joseph looked calm, “Downey Group has coboration with ST Hotel. Yourpany does businesses
of high-end tourism while mypany does businesses of high-end hotel chain so both are mutually
beneficial. Therefore, it is natural that you’re on the invitation list of the hotel.”
“But my body condition is bad these years. It’s my daughter who attends all these banquets for me.”
Joseph’s eyes slightly moved, “You don’t let your eldest daughter attend this time is because your
second daughter is working in mypany, right? She is also in charge of this celebration.”
Hearing this, Bentley revealed some unhappy expressions, thinking that Joseph was talking about the
matter that Hayden and Chelsea were having a bad rtionship. After all, this matter had been spread
in the circle because of the engagement banquet of Kingsley.
“It seems that Mr. Beckham has investigated the matters of my family clearly. But, guessing about an
employee’s rtionship with his or her family is not the behaviour that a boss should have.”
The atmosphere instantly grew tense.
