After divorce I am a billionaire
Chapter 468 The entertainment industry is controlled by the Lloyd family

Ashton immediately stood up to greet him and his attitude was very flattering.

"Hi, Mr. Keith, you're finally here. Please have a seat."

Keith tightened his eyebrows, and taunted him nonchalantly with his bass voice, "You mean, you think I'm slow?" "No, no, no, you misunderstand me. You grace my hotel with your presence. I am excited. How can I mean this?" Ashton lightly slapped his mouth and smiled, "I was the one who put my foot in it. Mr. Keith, please don't mind it." Keith looked at him askance, being barely satisfied with his attitude.

Ashton was not stupid, and soon felt Keith's hostility to him, because he taunted him at the moment he came in. Obviously, he was demonstrating.

After all, he wanted to get something from Keith. With a smile on his face, he bowed to invite Keith to his seat and diligently poured a glass of wine for Keith. "Mr. Keith, I'll start with a toast to you, as my atonement."

Keith glanced at the red wine glass in his hand and did not reach for it. Then he asked in a cold voice, "Just say what you want. I'm too busy to beat around the bush."

Ashton was taunted again, feeling slightly embarrassed. He could only put down the wine glass and explain his intention with embarrassment: "I wonder if you have paid attention to the Barker Group's news recently?"

Keith didn't say anything and stared at him with cold and unfriendly attitude.

Ashton could only lower his head, and continued, "Two days ago, there is a news suddenly spreading the Barker Group's food safety problems. The news is exaggerated, but the netizens believe that. Over the past days, the Barker Group's hotels and restaurants are dismal. And the stock plummets. "

"I spent a lot of money and thought of a lot of ways, but the news keeps going viral. I don't know whom I has offended. It's targeting me so badly."

He was in bitterness and begged Keith with a very low posture, "Mr. Keith you are an important figure in the entertainment industry. You only need to raise your hand and make a phone call to bring down the heat. I will try to get you whatever you want!"

Keith was waiting for his words, "I can help the Barker Group to withdraw the hot search, and even, help the Barker Group to clarify that food safety is rumored and restore the Barker Group's reputation." Ashton was too surprised, as if a pie had fallen from the sky and hit him.

"Mr. Keith, you are so kind! You are like a living Buddha, whatever you need, I, Ashton, will do anything to help you get it!"

Keith pursed his lips and smiled, haughtily lifting the red wine glass towards Ashton.

Ashton was so flattered that he hurriedly raised his hands in the air and gently clinked his glass with Keith's, and drank a whole glass directly and very sincerely.

Keith only took a shallow sip, "What I need is simple: back out of your engagement to the fifth daughter of the Callahan family."

Ashton almost choked on his drink.

Keith and Melissa had been in a relationship before, and he knew about it, but he didn't expect Keith to be so attached to Melissa.

"What? You don't want to?" Keith asked, raising an eyebrow when Ashton didn't say anything.

This was the thing that Ashton really struggled with, "Mr. Keith, do you have any other needs besides this ?"

Keith's lips were pursed and his face looked sullen and he didn't say anything.

Ashton saw that he was not happy, but could only explain: "Mr. Keith, you don't know about it. I took the initiative to ask Mr. Shane and set the engagement. If I cancel, the engagement gift, Mr. Shane is not expected to return ..."

Not only that, but he would offend Shane.

Moreover, with Keith's importance to Melissa, Keith would definitely not allow him to blame it to Melissa and the Barker family had to suffer anyway.

Ashton would offend them anyway no matter what he did.

Keith ignored his complaint, showing that it was non-negotiable, "I give you one day. You can think about it. Break off. There is no negotiation."

Keith stroked his expensive pants, got up, and stared at Ashton from above.

"Cancel and you offend Shane, and the Barker Group stock won't plummet. If not, you will offend the whole Lloyd family, and the Barker Group from now on will be waiting for bankruptcy liquidation!" With these words, Keith left the room without looking back.

"Mr. Keith, Mr. Keith ..."

Ashton shouted a few times, failing to get Keith to stop.

He sat limp in his seat, keenly noted that Keith had said "the whole Lloyd family", and felt regretful.

He thought that by marrying Melissa, he would be able to get in touch with the Callahan family, but he never thought that he would offend Keith.

It was like trying to save a little but lose a lot.

And the loss out-weighted the gain.

He sighed repeatedly, took out his cell phone and called the Barker Group's PR department.

"Find out immediately who else has the most say in the entertainment industry right now, besides Keith."

Two minutes later, the PR department sent a text message to his phone.

There were only two words on the text message, [Lyra Lloyd].

Now Lyra's Angle Group was the most promising entertainment company after Keith's, with Melissa, Cody, Elias and other top-class stars. Currently the hottest talent shows in the variety industry were all planned and released by Angle.

Lyra was almost in control of the other half of the entertainment industry, except for Keith.

The entertainment world had been taken over by the Lloyd family.

They were siblings and they controlled the industry. With Keith's attitude, if he went to beg Lyra, it was estimated to get the similar answer. Ashton crouched by the table, whimpering and wailing in misery. And he was torn.

When the tea party was over, all the celebrities had a good time and said goodbye to Lyra, the host, and drove home leisurely in their own luxury cars. Rebecca also joined Sylvia and left chatting.

Lyra stood by the railing of the Sky Restaurant. The wind was blowing her hair, making her look pretty in a special way.

She elegantly pinned her hair around her ear, rubbed her empty earlobe, and quickly messaged Chad.

[It's done, stick to the plan].

National Investigation Bureau.

At the end of the day, Shane straightened his uniform and left his office whiling crossing his arms.

As he just walked down the aisle, he looked up at Malcolm, who was also in a solemn military uniform, standing at the second floor and looking down on the first floor lobby of the bureau. Malcolm was often in casual wear on assignment, and even he came to the bureau, he did not wear the uniform.

Seeing that him dressed so formally today, Shane froze before walking over to him.

"What a coincidence,Mr. Malcolm. What brings you back to the Bureau today?" He smiled sardonically.

Malcolm turned around when he said these. In the military uniform, he looked righteously handsome.

He squinted his dark eyes and his tone was low, without any emotions, "Unluckily, I am here to replace you."

Shane, who was slightly stunned, hurriedly stood upright and saluted to Malcolm, "Mr. Malcolm, what is the task, please command."

Malcolm brushed past him and headed for his office, saying, "Follow me."
