Marie smiled, “You said you wanted me to make you famous. Does that still count?”

Sasha said, “Of course it counts! I never go back on

back on my word!”

“Okay, I have a role for you. And I need you to come to New York after the SAT,” said Marie.

“No problem. I’m about to enroll in Yale University,” Sasha agreed immediately.

Marie firmly believed that Sasha’s charming and heroic face was simply a realistic version of

Jordyn’s.

But now the question was, where was that unruly boy, Jaime Constance?

While Marie was racking her brain, Iliana said, “There are so many rich families in New York. You

cannot even count the number of spoiled brats among them. It’s not difficult to find a few of them

who are also in the entertainment industry.”

Marie was stunned. Right, there are many spoiled brats like Dereon!

But on second thought, Dereon gave her goosebumps of disgust.

“There’s a young master of the Robert family named Darwin Robert. He has acted in two films. He’s

very good-looking, but he has a bad personality. No one can teach him a lesson.” As Iliana spoke,

she showed Marie a picture of Darwin.

The young boy was wearing a racing suit, standing next to a black racing car, holding a helmet in

his hand, and smiling at the camera.

He was confident, arrogant, but handsome and charming.

It was the kind of young boy with a cocky smile but clear eyes that Jaime was supposed to be.

Marie hugged Iliana and said, “You’ve helped me a lot!”

She immediately called Andres. As soon as he picked up the phone, he asked, “Marie, are you

sober?”

Marie was speechless.

Andres asked cheerfully, “What’s the matter? If Mr. Whitney finds out that you’re calling me, he’ll

skin me alive.”

“Is there a person named Darwin Robert in your family?” asked Marie.

Yeah, my younger brother. What’s wrong?” Andres asked.

“I have a role for him!” Marie said immediately.

“Well… Marie, Darwin has been spoiled by my family since he was a child, and he has a bad femper. I

can’t even do anything about him. Why don’t you find someone else?”

Andres was a little worried. If Darwin aroused the slightest anger in Marie, Dennis would throw

Darwin into the Pacific Ocean.

“Let me meet him first, and then we’ll decide, okay? You arrange for us to meet.” Marie chose to be

cheeky and didn’t hang up the phone.

Andres said, “All right. I’ll race with a few of my friends in a couple of days. Ask Mr. Whitney to bring

you along. I’ll bring Darwin there, but don’t tell him it was my idea!”

Marie immediately nodded. “Got it!”

After school, Marie said goodbye to Iliana and asked the driver to take her to Fairy Restaurant first.

After Marie packed a grilled fish, she went to Glorious Estate.

She took out her keys and opened the door. Melissa was cooking, and she was overjoyed to see her

back. “Ms. Spence, you’re back? Come in and have a seat, I’ll call Mr. Whitney later and ask him to

come back for dinner!”

Stunned, Marie asked, “Doesn’t Dennis usually come back for dinner?”

Melissa came out with the dishes and said, “Only a handful of times. It’s Mr. Cullen who comes and

brings the food to the company for him. Since you moved away, Mr. Whitney seldom came back for

meals.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Seeing Melissa take out her phone, Marie paused before she said, “Melissa, go ahead. I’ll call him.”

Melissa happily handed the phone to her and went to the kitchen to cook. Marie dialed a number, and

then Cullen’s voice came out, “Melissa, I’ll go get the meal later. You can pack it first.”

Marie said, “Cullen.”

“Ms. Spence?” Cullen was shocked and confirmed again that this was indeed Melissa’s phone!

“Dennis… Is he busy?” Marie asked.

Cullen looked at Dennis in the conference room and said, “Mr. Whitney is in a meeting.”

“Oh… So he won’t come back for dinner tonight, right?” Marie continued.

“Huh? Yes! Surely he’ll go back! Mr. Whitney will go back after the meeting!” Cullen immediately

said.

Whether he went back or not, he had to keep Ms. Marie first! He was definitely Mr. Whitney’s most

caring wingman!

“Okay, then tell him that I’ve bought grilled fish from Fairy Restaurant and asked him to come back

early to eat.” Marie smiled.

“Okay! Don’t worry, Ms. Marie. I’ll pass on the message!” Cullen hung up the phone and walked.

quickly into the conference room.

Dennis’ face was sullen. The next director stood up and reported to work with trepidation, for fear

of being scolded by Dennis like the last person.

The problem was that every question that Dennis said hit the nail on the head, making them

ashamed.

Cullen leaned closer to Dennis and whispered, “Mr. Whitney, Ms. Spence is at Glorious Estate.”

Dennis was stunned, “Who?”

Cullen said, “Ms. Marie is now at Glorious Estate.”

Dennis asked hesitantly, “What is she doing there?”

Cullen scratched his head and said, “I think she’s waiting for you to go back for dinner. Ms. Marie said

she bought grilled fish from Fairy Restaurant and asked you to go back early.”

Dennis’s eyes lit up. Did this girl actually take the initiative to come to him one day?

After the director finished his report, he lowered his head and waited for Dennis’ reprimand.

Unexpectedly, Dennis suddenly said, “Not bad. That’s all for today’s meeting.”

Dennis got up and strode out of the conference room. All the directors seemed to be relieved, and one

of them pulled Cullen alone and asked, “Mr. Cullen, why is Mr. Whitney different today?”

Cullen thought for a while and said, “Mr. Whitney has something to do at home. Something big!”

He was right. Ms. Marie was Mr. Whitney’s biggest event.

Dennis returned to Glorious Estate. As soon as he entered and changed his shoes at the entrance,

heard the silver-bell laughter of Marie. She seemed to be talking to Melissa, and was smiling

pleasantly.

He walked in, and Melissa said, “Mr. Whitney, you’re back? Let’s eat. Ms. Spence has been waiting for

you for a long time.”

Dennis walked over and stared at Marie, asking, “Why are you here?”

“I… came to apologize!” Marie lowered her head and said.

“For what?” Dennis asked her.

Marie raised her head and looked at him with her bright eyes. After trying to muster her courage a long

time, she simply pulled the corner of his shirt and said, “Let’s eat. I’m hungry!”

Dennis knew her well, so he just rubbed the hair on her forehead and said, “Let’s eat.”

Marie smiled. She knew that the thing of her leaving without saying goodbye this time was over.

Dennis knew that Marie had her own thoughts and the shyness of a girl. There were some things that

she couldn’t say, so he just said them.

While eating, Marie said, “Dennis, I heard you gave Andres a car?”

Dennis nodded, “Yes, why?”

“I want to watch racing too. Can you take me with you?” Marie asked.

Dennis looked up at her and asked, “Are you here to come to me or because you want to watch the

race?”

Marie merely poked the dish on her plate with her fork out of guilt. He’d seen through it! Surely he was

about to get angry again.

“Okay,” Dennis said suddenly.

“Huh? Okay? You agree?” Stunned, Marie asked.

“If that’s the reason you came to see me, then I can let Andres play racing every day. If you want to see

something else, I’ll also find a way,” Dennis said.

Marie blushed. So, as long as she took the initiative to come to him, he would agree to anything?

After eating, Marie simply searched out the novel on the Internet and stuffed the phone to Dennis,

saying, “I want to remake this into a TV series, and I want Darwin to be the male lead.”

Dennis frowned, “Andres” younger brother?”

Marie nodded. “Yes, I think he’s the best.”

“Darwin and Andres are half-brothers. Although they were raised by the same mother, Darwin was very

rebellious. Even Andres couldn’t do anything about him. If you want to film with him, you may have a lot

of trouble.” Dennis said.

“Then I’ll go meet him first! I don’t believe there’s a hellion I can’t subdue!” Marie clenched her fists and

said.

Dennis asked, “Did Andres ask you to watch the race?”

“No, I want to go by myself. I can meet Darwin there by the way,” Marie said.

Dennis didn’t say anything. Seeing that, Marie was anxious and said, “It’s true! I want to go by myself!”

Dennis nodded. “I got it.”

Marie was speechless.

Why do I feel as if you had not got it?

Andres, I did my best! I spilled the beans!

Two days later, Dennis drove to the race track with Marie. A few men and women had gathered

together to play. When they saw Dennis’ car driving over, they all smiled and said, “Mr. Whitney, it’s

rare for you to come!”

Someone flattered, “It’s all because Andres is here, and Mr. Whitney is here for his sake. Otherwise, he

won’t play with us!”

Andres smiled awkwardly… Heh… It’s for Marie’s sake…

Sure enough, Dennis got out of the car, went around to the passenger seat, and opened the door. The

delicate girl who got out of the car was none other than Marie Spence.

There was a burst of exclamation in the crowd. Everyone knew that Dennis was not close to women.

He didn’t even bring a female companion to the reception, but this time he brought a girl.

Dennis was wearing a gray casual outfit, and so was Marie. Her ponytail was tied high, and she looked

energetic.

Both wore sunglasses on their faces, which made their entire outfits more like a couple’s.

“Marie!” Andres walked over to greet her warmly.

Marie was speechless.

She didn’t expect Andres to cool it for a while.

Someone asked, “Mr. Whitney, why don’t you introduce her to us? Which family is she from?”

“Mr. Whitney brings her here. It’s none of your business whether she’s introduced or not!”

“Didn’t you notice Andres’ treatment of her? Can’t you read it? Of course, she’s someone Mr. Whitney

values.”

Several men laughed and joked, and many girls looked over, showing either envy or jealousy.

Dennis was famously aloof in this circle, and he didn’t even look at those women even when they were

presented to him.

Who would have thought that there would be a girl around Dennis all of a sudden?
