Chapter 183
His speech got everyone on the edge of their seats.
They never expected being a top floor security guard would allow one to be in contact with so many big shots!
That meant that if Chase were to take up this position, he could be in such close proximity to the most influential people in Golden City!
If he performed well, he would have a promising future ahead of him.
Jane looked at Chase angrily. “What are you waiting for? Know your place! Thank him!”
Just as Bella was about to speak, Chase stopped her.
Chase looked at Ryan standing there all dapper and asked jokingly, “Oh? Humour me then, since the job is so popular, why was the original guard even fired in the first
place? For what reason?”
Ryan’s expression changed as he said, “I heard that he offended the new director, so he was sacked. But as long as you do you part and not pull an attitude, no one will make light of you as long as I’m there.”
Jane sighed in shock, “What kind of director do you have? He’s so arrogant!”
Ryan replied proudly this time, “As a director, he has a reputation to uphold. He is, after all, a young and promising gem.”
Jane immediately asked eagerly, “Well, Ryan, you should be one of the director’s favorites, right? Can you introduce us to the director? It would be good for all of us to network.”
Ryan’s face froze momentarily, but he quickly regained his composure. He smiled and said, “That can be easily arranged.”
Ryan felt a twinge of guilt as he said this.
He was but a middle-level employee in the Lunanica Media.
Obviously, he would not be qualified to handle negotiations.
He was merely a staff member, performing basic tasks under Lucas’s guidance. Lucas was the vice director of Lunanica Media How would Ryan personally know the new director?
He hadn’t even seen what the new director looked like.
Let alone introduce the Song family to him!
However, since Bella was present, Ryan had to maintain his facade till the end. He couldn’t let Bella look down on him.
“Ryan, thank you for your generosity. We can arrange for another gathering where you can invite your director along. We can play host. Looking forward to having a
good chat with you and your director!” Rosaline was beaming with joy. Being a member of the richest and most powerful families in Golden City, she was obviously proud of her own self. One could easily hear the arrogance in her tone.
As Ryan did not want to dwell on the matter any longer, he immediately changed the topic:
He asked Chase, “So, Mr. Lu, what do you think? For my sake would you agree to it?”
Everyone stared at Chase intently, as though they would swallow him whole if he didn’t agree with Ryan.
Chase merely smiled and said, “Sure, thank you for finding me a good position.”
Bella was at a loss. She did not know why Chase would agree to Ryan’s suggestion.
This matter was obviously not about finding a job for Chase nor it being a security position, but about Ryan’s pride and superiority.
He was obviously being condescending towards Chase!
Chase, on the other hand, remained silent.
He had his own reasons for agreeing with Ryan’s proposition.
The current focus of his career was centered around Lunanica Media; he would have to frequent the company anyway.
Since Ryan was being so hypocritical, there was no harm in agreeing to his whims.
At least it gave Chase a good reason to visit Lunanica Media in the future without being suspected by others.
Upon Chase’s agreement, Jane breathed a sigh of relief. “You have carried yourself well. If you refused Ryan today, you would be going against the whole Song family.”
The others nodded at Jane’s words as she continued, “After all, it’s never too late to tarn over a new leaf. You should work hard under Ryan’s guidance in the future. Being a security guard is better than being a good-for-nothing.”
“Stay alert at your new job and don’t disgrace the Song family! Don’t get yourself sacked before a month is up!” a lady beside Jane reminded Chase.
“Ryan is truly capable. It only takes him a few words to find such a good job for Chase.
The crowd complimented Ryan while he kept up his calm pretense.
However, Bella was seething with rage.
To be fair, the Song Family could also give Chase a position in their own company.
However, it was the Song family who di want Chase to intervene in any of their affairs.
To put it bluntly, nobody in the Song family acknowledged Chase’s existence.
They didn’t want Chase to make a fool of himself in the Song’s company.
It was a pity that Chase had to suffer like this.
Bella glanced at Chase with a pained heart.
By then, the dishes had already been served, and the spread was a sight to behold.
However, not long after they started digging in, there was a loud commotion outside.
Ryan frowned slightly. Suddenly, the door burst open.
A young man was swearing as he grabbed the waiter’s collars with one hand and scolded, “Do you still want to stay in business? This room was obviously reserved by us. How dare you give it to someone else? I don’t care. Ask them to leave. Our boss will arrive shortly.
The waiter replied sleepishly. “This is an- order from my superiors. I was unaware of this. Can I offer you another private room The guests here are already dining.”
The young man couldn’t care less as he continued admonishing the waiter, “Do you not understand the concept ‘first come, first served?! Demn! I have been playing nice for your sake but now you’re all trying to take advantage of me!”
Right at this moment, Ryan stood up and shouted, “Who is causing such a ruckus?
Can’t you see I’m having distinguished guests here? If you disturb my guests, you shall pay dearly for it!”
Indirectly flattered by Ryan, everyone in the Song family straightened their shoulders and puffed out their chests,
proud to be Ryan’s distinguished guests.
The young man glanced at Ryan and retorted, “Are you the a”shole who snatched this private room away from me?”
He was about to give Ryan a piece of his mind when a manager ran over in a hurry and said to Ryan, “Mr. Liu, I’m really sens Our deputy general manager was unaware of the situation when he gave you the room. We are expecting some really important guests coming here today. Can you do us a favor…”
Ryan’s face fell immediately. “What about me? What about my distinguished guests?
How can you change our rooms on a whim? Do you want to be sacked?”
The manager’s face froze as he glimpsed at the young man before he continued, “Mr.
Liu, there really is an honored guest here that I can’t afford to offend…”
Ethan, who was standing at one side, chimed in, “You’re the manager, right? Do you know who you’re looking at? He is one of the top brass in Lunanica Media. Do you think you can afford to offend him?”
Everyone in the Song family had smug looks on their faces.
“Oh, I’d like to see which member of the Lunanica Media’s top management acts like such a tyrant when dealing with situations A cold snort came from outside the door.
The young man immediately humbled himself. He lowered his head and said,”Director Chien, this is the man who has taken over our private room and is now
babbling nonsense here.”
A plump man walked in.
Ryan was dumbfounded at the sight of the man. Involuntarily, goosebumps ran all over his skin.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
