What?
Jaeden's brows furrowed.
Although the parents wouldn't be too concerned whether they were able to watch Hermione perform, it would certainly be a bummer for the children because they loved Hermione's songs a lot, and they have been eagerly waiting for their idol to perform live.
The children's disappointment was palpable when they suddenly learned that their idol wasn't going to turn up.
Even Queenie couldn't help but tug at the corner of Nathan's shirt as she said timidly, “Papa, is Hermione not coming to sing for us? I really want to meet her in person and hear her sing live.”
Learning that Hermione couldn't come, all the children started crying and clamored for her to come and sing.
Penny looked at Nathan helplessly as she stated, “Hubby, do you have a way to invite Hermione here?”
While Nathan remained silent, suddenly his ear vibrated with a cold laugh, “Haha, Hermione is a famous actress, a lot of high officials and nobles have invited her to dinner and to perform with loads of money. Even if Nathan begged her, she wouldn't come.”
Nathan's face darkened after hearing that.
Nathan and the rest of the group glanced in the direction from which the laughter came.
While being accompanied by his men, a richlooking gentleman in a white suit strode over
with his head held high.
That rich-looking gentleman was none other than Branson.
Many people at the scene knew Branson was the heir of the Brimmotopia Group, so they gathered around and said curtly, “Greetings, Mr. Fuller!”
Branson, however, did not take those people who were buttering him up seriously as he walked straight up to Nathan and Penny.
As he smiled at Penny, he said, “Ms. Smith, if you think your husband will be able to invite Hermione here successfully, then I guess you'll be disappointed. I, on the other hand, will be able to help you bring her here.”
After that, he instructed his subordinate, “Ray, go and personally invite Queen of Vocals, Hermione, to come here and sing for the
children.”
Ray answered in a deep voice, “Yes, Mr. Fuller.”
Ray and his two other men hurriedly sought Hermione after discovering the hotel where she was staying.
Presidential Suite, Horizon Hotel.
While being surrounded by makeup artists, assistants, and a few bodyguards, Hermione was busy applying her makeup in front of the mirror.
Even though his family is wealthy, his father was the one who provided all the funds. His allowance was only three million per month, so he could not afford to spend twenty million all at once.
Furthermore, he couldn't bring himself to pay twenty million just to win a smile from a beautiful woman.
At that moment, he turned to Penny and said awkwardly, “Hermione's asking price has gone through the roof and she has been invited to accompany the richest man in Brimmopolis, so even I couldn't invite her. But I can't be blamed for this, I dare say that I can't invite her, and no one will be able to invite her here either. So, we should invite another celebrity to this event
instead!”
As soon as he said that, Nathan began to laugh lightheartedly while he uttered, “I was wondering how powerful Fuller family's heir was, but I didn't expect that he couldn't even invite a playwright.”
In an angry tone, Branson asked, “I can't invite her, but can you?”
Nathan smiled as he retorted, “What makes you think that I won't be able to ask her to come here?”
Branson sneered, “Naha, so you're saying you can get her here. What nonsense are you talking about? If you're capable, just ask her to come here and let us see how capable you are. If you don't dare to go, then I urge Ms. Smith to ditch this cowardly man as soon as possible. It's better for her to be with me than with him!”
After hearing that, Penny's face flushed with anger.
“What if I can get Hermione to come here?” Nathan asked calmly.
Branson instantly replied, “If you're able to get Hermione to come here, I will get down on my knees and call you my father. However, if you can't, then you can kneel down and bark like a dog.”
