Anna and Henry arrived at the hotel in the early afternoon to pick Jasper up.
You would never drive yourself to such formal events, which was why the Law siblings had their
chauffeur drive them in the family’s other Rolls-Royce.
Henry, also dressed in a suit, widened his eyes in surprise when he saw Jasper stepping out of the
hotel.
“Why bother buying an entertainment company when you look like that? Might as well go star in a
movie and gain instant fame,” Henry said with jealousy.
Jasper laughed as he got into the car. “Starring in a movie is such tiring work. How could it be as easy
as being a CEO?”
Henry clicked his tongue and was about to say a reply when he noticed something. He stared intently
at the suit Jasper was wearing.
A couple of seconds later, Henry wailed and said in equal parts anger, jealousy, and woe, “Anna Law,
isn’t this the suit you designed?!
“You wouldn’t let me wear it no matter how much I asked. Were you waiting for Jasper?!
“I’m your brother! Your brother! Besides your mom, dad, and grandpa, I’m the person closest to you!
How could you do this to me?!”
After listening exasperatedly to Henry’s wails, Anna said stiffly, “What are you yelling about? Are you
scared that the tabloid journalists won’t be able to hear us?”
Henry had a vengeful expression on his face.
Excelsior Hotel was a top-notch five-star hotel in Harbor City best suited for these high-end charity
balls.
The red-carpeted area outside the hotel was already filled with people when Jasper and the others
arrived.
The press, crowd, and bodyguards had been arranged on both sides in an orderly manner.
Every once in a while, a luxurious car would pull to a stop near the red carpet and the passenger inside
would step out of it.
It was just like an awards ceremony.
However, stars were the main characters of an award ceremony.
These stars were only an accessory to tycoons at places like these, where the rich and famous mingled
with each other.
No matter how famous you were or how large your fanbase was, you had to be careful here, lest you
say or do something wrong and offend the wrong person in the community.
Tragedies like these had happened in the past.
Modern stars were not much different from the playwrights of the past in front of the powerful.
As one of the top four most powerful tycoons, the Law family required an elaborate entrance.
A time period of an extra five minutes had been allocated both before and after the time slot the Law
family was supposed to arrive.
For those not in the know, there was nothing new about the Law family. They were all old-time friends
or rivals. They were much more interested in Jasper, who had been growing close to the Law family.
Especially Bob, who heard that Jasper would be attending the charity ball with the Law family.
“Jasper Laine is coming tonight.”
Bob spoke quietly to Zane who was standing beside him.
Zane’s mouth twitched, and a gloomy expression came over his face when he heard Jasper’s name.
“I’ll head in first to socialize with some old friends. Find a chance to humiliate him if he has arrived.
Count it as interest.”
Bob patted his female companion on the arm when he was done speaking and motioned for her to
follow him.
A famous, beautiful female movie star was standing beside him.
Zoelle Griffin.
Zoelle Griffin might be the most famous star in Harbor City now, but at this moment, she was nothing
more than Bob’s female companion.
Zoelle had also gone through various hurdles and defeated many people to be his companion.
The entertainment industry was far more complicated than outsiders thought it to be. Female stars had
to pay painful prices that one could not even begin to imagine to advance through the ranks.
Seemingly posh and elegant before the masses, they were nothing more than a tool to earn profits in a
capitalist society.
Zoelle glanced in another direction. It was another female star who was in the same rank as her,
Queenie Shaw.
At that moment, Queenie was standing beside Mitch, who was gazing silently at the approaching Law
family’s car with a solemn expression on his face. No one could tell what thoughts were going through
his mind.
