The Legendary Man Chapter 391

A Deal

“Really?” Jonathan appeared to be disinterested.

In truth, the entertainment industry was a playground for the rich. Behind the glitz and glamor, thesehigh and mighty superstars and movie queens were often subject to the whims and fancies of thewealthy men. Tycoons and magnates ruled the stars’ lives.

Similar to the financial district of some affluent countries, the entertainment industry was the breedingground for scandals and gossip.

After a while, when Jonathan had finished drinking his glass of water, he saw a heavily made-up, youngwoman sauntering toward Cecilia. She was accompanied by a young assistant. He wiped the chairbefore helping her to the seat.

“Cecilia, what brings you here today?” The woman was curious to know why Cecilia looked her up.

In the past, she had tried sucking up to Cecilia, but the latter had always held her in disdain.

The woman did not have a choice but to tolerate Cecilia’s behavior since she was from a prominentfamily in Gronga. At that time, she was still a struggling actress, and it was not befitting for her to mixaround with the likes of Cecilia. Hence, she was taken aback when Cecilia looked her up that day and even invited her to have coffeetogether.

Previously, Cecilia had not even bothered to return her messages on WhatsApp.

“I’ve got a favor to ask of you.” Cecilia glanced briefly at the woman before turning to Jonathan.“Master, this is Freida Buchanan, my actress friend whom I’ve mentioned to you earlier.”“Master?” Freida was stunned when Cecilia addressed Jonathan as Master. She knew that Ceciliacame from a prestigious family.

In addition, Cecilia was also a haughty woman.

Hence, she did not expect Cecilia would call a man Master.

Previously, she was not even remotely friendly to the renowned Wayde Larson from one of theprominent families in Gronga.

“Mind your own business.” Cecilia shot Freida a cold and warning look, glaring down at her.

With the Hansley family’s influence, Cecilia could easily crush this small-time actress.

“Oh, okay!”

Intimidated by Cecilia’s stare, the woman shrank back and did not utter another word. She knew verywell that Cecilia did not think too highly of her.

“I heard from Cecilia that you are a member of Hunters Guild?” Jonathan asked casually.“HuntersGuild?”

The minute Freida heard the words “Hunters Guild,” she went on the defensive. “Why are you askingabout Hunters Guild?”

“Just answer Master. Don’t ask so many questions. I’m warning you, Freida. Don’t try to play any tricksin front of Master. Otherwise, forget about staying in Gronga.” Cecilia glowered to show herdispleasure.

“Don’t frighten her.” Seeing how scared the woman was, Jonathan immediately stopped Cecilia fromintimidating her. “Don’t be afraid. I’m not from any secret society, and I mean no hard to Hunters Guild.I used to join Hunters Guild when I was abroad, but I’ve lost contact with them ever since I came back.I heard that there’s also Hunters Guild in Gronga. Hence, I would like to know more about it.”

“Are you also a member of Hunters Guild?” Freida suddenly warmed up to Jonathan when she heardthat he was also a member of Hunters Guild.

“Yes, that’s right.” Jonathan nodded. “I was in Hunters Guild in another country. I don’t know if it’s thesame organization.”

“It’s the same!” Freida nodded. “Hunters Guild at Gronga is a branch of the same organizationoverseas, and it’s managed by the same people. The highest-ranking leader of the Hunters Guild hereis also part of the management team of the main Hunters Guild.”

“Really?”

Jonathan then asked offhandedly, “What’s his name? Maybe we met while I was overseas.”

“His name is Waxon.”

Freida lowered her voice. “But we hardly get to see him. As you know, he’s the highest-ranking leaderof the Hunters Guild in Gronga. People like me from the lower rung of the organization won’t get tomeet him. I heard he’s a very influential person. He’s a senior executive in the main Hunters Guild.”

“Waxon. The name sounds familiar.” Jonathan tried to sound nonchalant.

Jonathan certainly recognized the name. Back in Yaleview, Hades had told him that the highest-rankingleader of Hunters Guild in Gronga was a foreigner named Waxon.

“If that is the case, can you please introduce the senior executives of Hunters Guild to me when youget the chance? I would like to join Hunters Guild here in Gronga. Of course, it’d be best if you canintroduce Waxon to me,” Jonathan said casually.

He continued, “As a reward, I’ll ask Cecilia to invest in a movie and cast you as the female lead.”

“Really?” Freida was thrilled to hear that Jonathan was going to ask Cecilia to invest in a movie andcast her as the female lead. Her eyes sparkled at the prospect of a big break in the entertainmentindustry.

She had been a struggling actress in Gronga for five to six years. Oftentimes, she had sold her body inexchange for favors from the film producers and directors. However, she was never given a lead role inany movie.

In fact, she was not even cast as a second lead.

Freida was mindful that she did not have a good family backing nor a strong backing in the industry.

The directors and film producers were merely toying with her feelings. After getting intimate with her,they would only cast her in a minor role to placate her.

“Certainly!” Jonathan turned to look at Cecilia who concurred, “Of course, Master’s promise is also mypromise. If you do as Master says, I’ll invest one hundred million to film a movie and engage therenowned director in Gronga, Fabrizio Dabato. I may be able to get one of the Four Heavenly Kings ofGronga to be the male lead. And you will be the female lead.”

Wow! Gronga’s renowned director, Fabrizio Dabato! And one of the Four Heavenly Kings as the malelead, with me as the female lead! Even a fresh graduate would be able to gain fame overnight actingwith such a dream cast, let alone me!

It was a dream come true for Freida. All she needed to do was to introduce the senior executives ofHunters Guild to Cecilia’s Master.

She realized that the best decision she had made in her life was to join Hunters Guild.novelbin

“Don’t worry, Ms. Hansley. I won’t disappoint you.” Freida hurriedly made her stand, afraid that Ceciliamight go back on her words.

“If you fail me, I’ll make sure you disappear from the entertainment industry in Gronga,” Cecilia warnedthe woman coldly.

“No, no. I will certainly not!” Freida hurriedly shook her head. Just then, there was a commotion comingfrom beside them.

A woman dressed in a black gown stormed into the cafe.
