Chapter 196
When they arrived, they didnโt look very happy โ probably because they had been nagged by their family. The others could tell when they went to visit Nina.
Madam Felton said Jessica and Nina were about the same age, but the former had already been married for five years. She wondered why Roy and Nina were still single, and when they would finally have great-grandchildren to hold.
They had been scolded at home for a long time.
Actually, Ninaโs status meant she couldnโt get married easily. It was best if she found someone in the entertainment industry. Her words and actions all had to meet the standards of the industry, or else she could easily bring trouble to FN.
As for Roy, it was even more difficult.
His only lover was the police station.
He hardly ever went home, spending all day at the station with mostly male colleagues. Finding a girl to date was almost impossible.
โYou guys are married. You have no idea how hard it is for us. At home, itโs either nagging or whispering behind our backs. If it werenโt for the New Year, I wouldnโt go home at all. Luckily, Grandma will visit Grandpa in a few days.โ
Jessica and Chris exchanged glances, and the latter said, โNothingโs changed even after youโre married. Mom wants us to have kids. I said Iโm busy with work, and my mother-in-law said thatโs just an excuse. She said that she always had time to have kids no matter how busy she was.โ
Jaden said, โHonestly, when I was born, my dad hadnโt fully stepped down yet. There were still so many things to handle, and he had to keep an eye on those people trying to find me and my mom. That did take some skill.โ
The older generationโs ability was different from that of the current generation.
Madam Felton said the same thing as Linda.
The current generation mostly grew up with love. Even Collin and Jaden, who were exiled, felt their parents' protection.
They were different.
Once someone felt love, it was hard for them to be completely ruthless.
Jessica said, โStarting from the 4th, Chris and I are going on our honeymoon. The affairs in Impelia are up to you guys. Nina, if you need help, just contact Indya. Sheโs at home and ready anytime. Shannon will help too.โ
Nina raised her cup to the two. โThere will definitely be times I need your help. Thanks in advance.โ
They had all been old friends for years, no need for formalities.
Hurricane Media was now wrapping up. After the New Year, work would start immediately. Jaden and Collin were also about to make their mark domestically.
โI heard a lot of the Hall Groupโs artists have ties with Michael,โ Roy asked Jessica.
Nina said, โThatโs pretty normal in the entertainment industry. Besides, Iโm a woman. If I were a man and saw so many beautiful women around me all the time, I wouldnโt be able to resist either.โ
Just as she finished speaking, Roy knocked her hard on the back of the head.
โIโve not gotten to you yet. Whatโs going on with your rumored relationship with Matthew? Is that guy any good? You can fool Chris by saying itโs a rumor, but you canโt fool me.โ
After managing FN for so many years, Roy had never seen Nina involved in hotel-scandal rumors. She was a girl and didnโt use such things to promote herself. Even for the companyโs artists, that was not acceptable.
So when he saw this message, Roy immediately knew Nina and Matthew must have something going on.
Matthew was just a trainee idol who had recently returned to Cheria; he wasnโt even an A-list artist in the country. Roy really didnโt understand what Nina saw in him.
โWhat?โ Chris looked shocked at Nina. โYou and Matthew are for real? You lied to me?โ
Nina gave her brother a fierce glare and, under everyoneโs curious eyes, had no choice but to admit the truth.
โThree years ago, I sent Matthew abroad. Originally he was an artist signed to my company. He had potential but needed a chance to get his career going. The environment in Cheria was too comfortable, so I sent him overseas.โ
