The Silent Wife

Chapter 313

Rachel scowled at Jason’s words.

“I’ll see you at the Deluxe Hall of the Golden Cruise at 7.30PM. I’m sure you’ll meet the people you’re interested in at the cocktail party.”

“I’ll go.”

After hanging up the call, Rachel traded glances with Jolly.

“Jason told me to join a cocktail party with him on the Golden Cruise.”

“The Golden Cruise?” Jolly became startled. “Is it an event organized by the Jockey Club?”

“Do you know anything about it?”

“My dad was one of the founders of that club. When I was a young kid, he used to bring me to the events organized by the club. For some reason, he stopped attending them one day and quit watching horse racing altogether.”

“Did anything happen?”

“I’m not sure. I was already in the university when that happened, so I wasn’t home most of the time.”

Upon hearing that, Rachel fell into her thoughts. Just then, someone knocked on the door from outside.

“Come in,” Rachel uttered.

The person who came in was the secretary to the director of the Advertising Department, Linda Cook. “The director told me to send you this, President Hudson. It is Leroy Bennett’s latest schedule.”

A puzzled Rachel asked, “What do I need his schedule for? Why can’t we contact his agent directly?”

Linda explained, “The director has already come to an agreement with Leroy’s agent regarding the contract. However, Leroy is different from other celebrities-he likes to take things into his hands. Therefore, the contract has to be sent to him and signed by him.”

“Can’t we just meet up with his agent?”

A helpless Linda uttered, “Leroy is the hottest celebrity now, so he has a tight schedule. If we want to book a time slot with his agent to have a meet-up, that will be two months later.”
