Chapter 2682
Helios was grabbing a drink with someone else. When he saw Freyja standing amongst several directors, he walked
toward the group of people. “So, you’re here with Director Winslow.”
All the directors were momentarily stunned.
‘Helios Boucher actually knows her!?’
Freyja nodded. “It’s nice to see you here, Uncle Helios.”
Donny greeted Helios with a smile, “Mr. Boucher, it’s been such a long time. I really didn’t expect you and my
screenwriter to be acquaintances.”
Helios proposed a toast with Donny. “I haven’t seen you since our last collaboration. I heard you came to Zlokova to
prepare for your new movie. I didn’t expect her to be your screenwriter.”
“She’s Professor Merlin’s favorite student, and Mr. Lancell introduced her to me. Not to mention that her script is
quite to my liking.
Donny had always been known as the “Godfather of Thrillers” in the industry and always loved shooting suspense

And once he started a project, he must ensure that it was shot to perfection-he would never allow any room for
flaws.
Helios smiled and nodded. “This kid is indeed excellent. I’ve heard a lot about her too.”
Just as they were chatting, a female artist who looked somewhat similar to Daisie appeared in the crowd. She was
the rookie who had risen to fame popular in the industry recently.
Roland was the one who brought her here. He could be regarded as one of the largest capitalists in Zlokovian
showbiz and had worked with many directors.
Roxy walked right next to Roland conscientiously, without giving off any intimate interaction with Roland throughout
the whole time, and others were following them around.
She was very clear that many bigshots in the entertainment industry would gather on this occasion, so she
attended this banquet with Roland. Naturally, with Roland’s connections, she would never have to worry about her
future in the entertainment industry.
Freyja saw Roxy at this time and was a little taken aback as millions of thoughts flashed across her mind.
She only returned to her senses when two female artists started discussing Roxy in a corner not far away from her.
“She seems to be the new artist that Tenet recruited not long ago.”
“Daisie is pregnant and has taken a temporary hiatus from the industry, and her contract with Tenet is about to
expire too. So, by recruiting a newbie who resembles Daisie and allowing her to make her debut with the title
‘Daisie Jr.’ now, isn’t it obvious that the agency only plans to make a fortune out of her?”
Artists like them knew their way around the marketing methods and routines that agencies tended to use.
Freyja frowned.
Soori, Roland arrived at the table where Freyja was, and several directors who were close to him greeted him. “Mr.
Goldwin, why are you the one who’s in charge of bringing a newbie here?”
Roland chuckled calmly. “Oh, she’s the niece of one of my distant relatives. She has just stepped into the
entertainment industry, so I’ve brought her out here to take a look around and get to know more people.”
The directors saw through that cheap trick but chose not to say anything about it. Such household
relationships existed in all corners of the circle, and it was already a common thing to see from time to time.
Roland looked at Donny and stepped forward with a smile. “You must be Mr. Donny Winslow. Oh my, I’ve heard so
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmuch about you. But I didn’t really expect to meet you here today.”
Donny nodded in response, and his attitude was considered courteous.
Helios swayed the wine glass in his hand. “Mr. Goldwin, your distant relative’s niece looks somewhat similar to my
goddaughter, Daisie. The title ‘Daisie Jr.’ does suit her well, huh?”
Obviously, what he said had some connotations, and everyone present could feel the embarrassment that Roland
and Roxy felt.
In fact, everybody knew what Tenet had done with Roxy. It was just that no one had the guts to make any comment
about the matter.
However, Helios was probably the only one in the industry who would dare to show his disapproval. After all, the
relationship between the Bouchers and the Goldmanns was impossibly close.
Everyone present thought that Roxy would avoid arousing suspicion and change the subject, but she was proud of
the trait instead. “Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Boucher. It’s my honor to get associated with Ms. Vanderbilt.”
Everyone’s expressions looked meaningful. Even Roland could not help but feel anxious about what she had just
said and hurriedly explained on her behalf, “Mr. Boucher, please don’t mind her. She just doesn’t know what’s the
appropriate thing to say.”
Helios drank the wine slowly. “It’s okay. I’m very pleased that my goddaughter has such an influence in showbiz.”
