Chapter 216
Ford’s hand was shaking when he took the contract from Marcus.
When he had the contract in his hand, he briefly went through it before he signed his name on it. He stammered, “l–it’s all good! It’s all good!”
Marcus was the city’s mayor. One word and the Fullberries would be doomed, so there was no point for Marcus to tinker with the contract.
Jennifer simply smiled throughout the contract–signing process.
Halle looked at Andrius, feeling proud.
Only Jude was stunned as if a bolt of lightning struck him. He looked at the scene with utmost disbelief.
Was Andrius not from the mountains? Wasn’t he a nameless poor guy?
How could he bring the mayor over with just one call?
Why?
How did he, Jude Carver, the young master of a large company, lose to a nameless guy from the mountains?
He was defeated, completely.
Therefore, since the family and Andrius were held up by the mayor’s arrival, Jude quickly left. He could not afford to stay any longer because he was afraid that Andrius might insult him again.
After signing the contract, Marcus left.
Andrius was left alone with the Fullberries.
Ford and Jennifer finally understood how capable Andrius was. The mayor came to their place because of one call from him.
In other words, Andrius was not just a guy from the mountains. He was hiding something.
Therefore, their attitudes towards Andrius changed drastically.
“M–Mr. Moonshade…” Ford chuckled awkwardly. The flattery on his face was mixed with a dash of embarrassment. “I really have to thank you for this contract.”
“Yeah, Andy.” Jennifer’s expression shifted quickly as well, and she was much more shameless than her husband, calling Andrius “Andy“.
“Please forgive our attitude from before, but I believe you won’t mind, right? Andy, are you thirsty? Come on, let’s go inside. We still have some good tea at home from our father. Right?”
Jennifer signaled Ford with a glance.
Ford caught the signal and nodded repeatedly. “Yeah, yeah, yeah! Come on, Andy, come…”
“Where are we going?” Halle interrupted her parents and curled her arms around Andrius‘. She said, “We are going shopping. You guys can go in first.”
“Shopping?”
Ford and Jennifer exchanged a quick look before they chuckled. “Yeah, shopping is good. Take your time, you don’t need to hurry back home.”
Chapjer 216
The two of them then went Inside, leaving Andrius and Halle alone.
Andrius and Halle then returned to the Royal Garden.
“Andrius…”
On the way back, Halle happily said, “My parents like you a lot. Why don’t we go get married after your deal with Luna is over?”
“Huh?”
Andrius looked at Halle in disbelief.
He was truly afraid of being around women. He wished he could go back to the Western Frontline immediately, so why would he be so stupid as to marry Halle?
Just when Andrius was thinking about how to reject Halle, he received a call from Luna. “Andrius, where are you? Come back to the Crestfalls‘ estate right now.”
The call then ended.
Andrius shrugged at Halle before he headed out.
Halle pouted as she watched Andrius leave her sight. She could not do anything since she was no one to him yet!
Back at the Crestfalls‘ estate, Belarus, Harry, George, and the others were all there.
When Andrius came in, Belarus looked at Andrius and said, “Andrius, when my brother left Sumeria the other day, he gave us a billion worth of funds. I am planning to buy an entertainment company and venture into showbiz. What do you think?”
“Showbiz…” Andrius frowned. Even though he was an outsider, he knew that the entertainment industry was dark and unpredictable.
“I heard it’s a bottomless pit. Grandfather, are you ready for this?”
“I am!” Belarus was eager. “Actually, we have been planning our venture into showbiz for a while now. In addition to the local government trying to fund war movies recently, I think it’s a good opportunity.”
If it was a planned strategy, then there should be no problem.
Andrius played along and asked, “Grandfather, which company are you planning to buy?”
“This one.” Belarus then said with an awkward smile, “I am planning to buy Riverfront Entertainment.”
Riverfront Entertainment?
Andrius‘ pupils shrank in surprise.
