Martin also knew that it was impossible for Cassandra to give up her current career. At the beginning,
he indeed just wanted Cassandra to have fun, and when she ran into trouble everywhere and felt it
boring, she would come back. But he did not expect that Cassandra could achieve such an
achievement in such a short time.
From having nothing, to win the best newcomer award of the Golden Sand Award, from [Cassandra to
Cassandra, she had completed an almost impossible transformation.
Most importantly, he began to change his mind. When he saw Cassandra standing on the stage with
dazzling light, he was really happy for her.
Cassandra seemed to be born on that stage. Even hundreds of millions of stars couldn't compare with
the light of self-confidence on her body.
"Sweetheart... Are you angry? " Seeing that Martin didn't say anything, Cassandra looked wronged and
grabbed a corner of Martin's clothes.
With a helpless look on his face, Martin shook his head and said, "No."
Cassandra pouted, "You lied to me. You didn't say anything, you must be angry."
Martin said helplessly, "No, it's just a pity that it is such a good opportunity."
Cassandra asked casually, "What opportunity?"
Martin, "Just now, Mr. Zhao of the CA Group called and said that there would be a small party at his
home. I promised him to go there and have a seat."
In the capital city, only a few people could invite him. Martin seldom showed up in public, even in
private parties.
Cassandra rolled her eyes, as if she had thought of something, and immediately said, "You mean the
biggest and most mysterious investor in the circle, Jefferson Zhao from the CA Group?"
The CA Group was also a well-known industrial group. It engaged in many industries such as hotel,
real estate, electronic business and entertainment. A few years ago, the real estate and hotel
developed rapidly, and the market value of the CA Group rose sharply. After that, the electronic
business and entertainment industry rose. Jefferson Zhao invested several big movies in a row, and the
box office was very good. Jefferson Zhao himself was also known as the godfather of investment in the
film industry.
Therefore, as soon as Cassandra heard the name of Mr. Zhao of CA Group, she immediately realized
that it was Jefferson Zhao.
Martin nodded, "Yes."
Cassandra shook Martin's arm and coaxed, "I'll go! Let's go now! "
Although she just got the investment from TL Investment Company and was not short of money now, if
she could get the favor of Jefferson Zhao, her new movie would be half successful.
The most important thing was that the people worth being invited by Jefferson Zhao were not ordinary
people. It was good for her to expand her connections, although if she wanted to expand her
connections, as long as Martin said a word, most of the rich people in the capital city would be eager to
invest.
Martin said helplessly, "Carlos, get the car ready."
Carlos looked at Cassandra. His sister-in-law was so skillful at manipulating things. He admired her so
much.
In the CG Mansion in the capital city.
In the study on the second floor of the He Clan's villa.
A slender man with short gray hair casually leaned on the balcony railing.
The man was holding a glass of strong wine in his hand, and his slender hand gently shook the glass.
Half of his face was buried in the half bright and half extinguished shadow, making it difficult to see the
cold expression on his angular face.
After a while, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind the man. His eyes were half closed, and a
gloomy and cold light was emitted from his narrow and long Phoenix eyes.
"Mr. Hogan, I've confirmed that the guests at the Zhao Clan's party tonight are some big shots in the
entertainment circle who are hiding behind the scenes, and some who want to use this opportunity to
get close to the Lu Clan. That person from the Hugo Clan is also there." Barnes stood behind the man,
slightly lowering his head, and his hoarse voice broke the dead silence.
Hearing this, Hogan drank up the wine in the glass, and then loosened his fingers. The transparent
glass fell down in an instant, and with a slight shattering sound downstairs, the glass instantly broke to
the ground.
Hogan raised his eyes slightly and looked at the brightly lit villa next door. A touch of cruelty flitted
across her eyes. He tapped the railing with his slender fingers and asked, "How is it going in Dragon
City?"
Barnes kept silent for two seconds. "As you expected, as soon as the news that you left the clan
spread out, Mr. Benton was about to take action. At present, he has been persuading several elders to
remove you from the position of patriarch and let him take over."
Hearing this, Hogan's eyes darkened, "He wishes."
Barnes, "Mr. Benton seems to have found the weakness of these elders. He coerced and bribed them.
At present, there are already two elders who have agreed to help him. Mr. Hogan, what are you going
to do with these two elders?"
Hogan gave a cold snort and said word by word, "They betrayed the clan rules and should be... Killed! "
Barnes raised his eyes slightly. Under the white light glasses, there was a touch of panic in his dark
eyes. A moment later, he said in a deep voice, "Yes, Mr. Hogan."
Hogan turned around and stared at Barnes with his dark purple eyes, "What? Are you softhearted?"
Barnes shook his head and said, "Rules are rules. They betrayed you, so they should bear the
consequences."
With a faint smile on his thin lips, Hogan raised Barnes' chin with his cold finger and said, "You know
how I have come to this. I have never been a softhearted person. Otherwise, the person who died in
the ditch without anyone burying his bones would be me."
The position of the patriarch was originally on the road of blood and bones, so he never trusted
anyone. He hated betrayal the most in his life.
He would rather betray the whole world than let the people in the world betray him.
Barnes' eyes didn't dodge at all. He looked at Hogan and said, "Since you saved me from those
people, my life belongs to you. Even if everyone in the world betrays you, I will stand behind you and
betray everyone in the world."
Hogan seemed to have finally heard a satisfactory answer. He loosened his grip on Barnes' chin and
casually put his hands on the railing. He said in a very hoarse voice, "Remember what you said
tonight."
With his eyes and brows lowered, there was dead silence on Barnes' face. "I... I won't forget it until I
die. "
Hogan kept silent for a few seconds and said in a low voice, "Go to Lu City now. There is someone you
are looking for there."
Barnes' face changed abruptly. He clenched his fingers and asked, "Mr. Hogan, do you mean he is in
Lu City?"
Hogan, "Yes, he is indeed in Lu City."
Barnes straightened his back and his heart beat faster and faster. He said in a hoarse voice, "Thank
you, Mr. Hogan."
With an evil smile at the corners of his mouth, Hogan said, "Benton seems to be a pushover, but he is
more stubborn than anyone else. If you can't persuade him to come back, I allow you to do as you
like."
