Star.

In his hotel room, Chad was handling work matters when he suddenly got a call from the executive director of Shining Star.

“A hundred grand?” Chad dropped his pen, took off his glasses, leaned back in his chair and asked, “Who’s the other party?”

The executive director was very enthusiastic and hurriedly answered, “I don’t know who they are, they didn’t reveal their names, and the negotiations were through an assistant. But apparently, they’re from Kyoto.”

Chad fell into thought.

The executive director explained again seriously, “We didn’t agree to their terms. We told them clearly that our show is fair and square, and we won’t do anything shady!”

Chad gave a few random replies, and after hanging up, he called Bernie to have him look into the matter.

After instructing Bernie, Chad was about to get back to work when he noticed a new message on his phone.

Chad opened it and saw that it was from his father.

The message was simple, Egbert and his sister’s engagement was off. From today onwards, Egbert was no longer the future son-in-law of the Lopez family.

Chad was utterly confused.

The rest of the Lopez family was also in the dark about reason.

But his father didn’t send any more messages and didn’t give any explanations.

Chad stared at his phone for a while, then took a screenshot of the message and sent it to Egbert.

Egbert replied after about an hour: [I know.]

Chad immediately replied: [Are you happy now?]

Egbert: [?]

Chad replied: [You always wanted to break off the engagement. Now that your wish came true, are you happy?]

Egbert didn’t reply anymore.

Chad felt a bit gleeful, thinking that Egbert must be pissed.

So, he sent another provocative message.
