Chapter 191 Burnett Groupâs Ambassador
Finished
Jordan picked up the file nonchalantly, his long fingers flipping through it slowly before his expression fell. He asked coldly, âAre there no endorsement for highâend fashion brands? No decent TV drama roles? The studio has been around for so long, and this is what theyâve managed to secure?â
Clark was taken aback.
These resources may not be topânotch compared to those of a major star, but Jonathanâs popularity was established, and he was already aiming for a Best Actor award. Therefore, all the resources he received were carefully selected and highâquality. Why did they all sound like trash when it came out of Jordanâs mouth?
Any one of these resources would be enough to make other celebrities in the industry go crazy.
Jordanâs face remained cold as he tossed the file onto the table, making a loud sound as the papers
scattered.
âThe global brand ambassador contract for the Burnettsâ electronic products is up for renewal in two years. We should let them go. According to the contract, weâll compensate them every penny without exception, and on top of that, weâll give them an additional 10% of their original payment. This endorsement will go to Milly. When the time comes, Iâll personally announce it at a press conference.â
Milly didnât respond immediately, still stunned. âHuh?â
Clark coughed awkwardly and added, âMr. Burnett, there are only two years left on the contract. Why not wait a bit longer? Itâs not that urgent.â
Jordan narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark gaze flashing with annoyance. âDo we need to consider the ambassadorâs feelings to terminate a contract?â
Clark hesitated. âWell⦠not exactlyâ¦â
Jordan seemed to have had enough. âThen let them go. Weâll do everything in our power to satisfy their demands, but if they donât know whatâs good for them, weâll just expose some of their dirt.â
The entertainment industry was a complicated world. There were very few people in it with no dirt to dig.
Jordan was confident he could use peopleâs weakness against them.â
Milly finally reacted, surprised that Jordan would go to such lengths for her sake. She quickly waved her hand and tried to stop him. âYou donât need to do that, Jordan. As a new artist, I canât take on such high- level resources right now. And I just got off the trending list; if Iâm associated with the Burnetts agaj might just spark another wave of rumours.â
Silb
Actually, these werenât the most important things; what was crucial was that Jordan couldnât afford to waste money!
The Burnettsâ company was already on the verge of bankruptcy; if they spent more money, they would just dig themselves deeper into debt.
It might be the final straw that breaks the camelâs back.
When Jordan saw Millyâs worried expression, he smiled softly and gently stroked her hair. âYou donât need
Chapter 191 Burnett Groupâs Ambassador
Milly was taken aback. Jordan seems to be missing the point!
At that moment, a voice rang out from the corner, âI donât agree either!â
This outburst immediately changed Jordanâs gentle gaze into one of disgust.
âWhat does it have to do with you? Just stand still and shut up!â
Jonathan ignored everyone and rushed over to Jordanâs leg, hugging it tightly as he began to sob uncontrollably. Jordan, please donât replace the ambassador! This ambassador is handsome and hardworking; if you replace him, itâll be a loss for the Burnetts!â

Jordan raised an eyebrow, his disgust growing more apparent by the second and almost ready to boil over. âLet go!â he growled.
Jonathan refused to let go and continued to cling tightly to Jordanâs leg as he wailed loudly, Jordan, listen to the voices of the people! Tyranny will always be punished; people need democracy!â
Milly was speechless.
Wow! As far as I know, Jonathan isnât wellâeducated; I never expected his thoughts to be so profound
But⦠isnât that a bit of a stretch?
He even raised issues of politics!
Jonathanâs shouting gave Jordan a headache, and he rubbed his forehead in frustration before speaking coldly. âWhat does this have to do with you? Go stand in the corner!â
Jonathanâs face turned red with anger as he held tighter onto his pant leg. âHow can you say that? Itâs got everything to do with me!â
Jordan raised an eyebrow. âHow so?â
He wanted to see what he could come up with.
âFor example, Jonathan said, âweâre all from the same country, and we should love and care for each other like one family. How can you permit senseless violence and expose peopleâs secrets? Thatâs immoral!
âJust as a song goes,
The world is cruel
The world is wicked
Itâs I alone whom you can trust in this whole city
I am your only friendâ¦
Milly rolled her eyes. Whyâs he singing out of nowhere?
She didnât know about Jordan, but she herself felt the urge to slap Jonathan.
As expected, Jordan was already getting annoyed, and his eyes were scanning the room as if looking for something to hit Ionathan with Rut Jonathan was still lost in his own world singing away

Just as Jordan was about to lash out, Milly quickly grabbed Jonathan and pulled him back down, smiling and trying to calm the situation. Jonathan, stop singing. We donât have time to waste, so just get to the point already.â
If you keep going. Iâm going to sew your mouth shut!
Jonathan stopped singing and looked at Jordanâs dark face before shrinking back. âOh, the point is that Iâm the ambassador⦠So please donât terminate the contract.â
Milly and Clark were speechless.
You couldâve just said that and saved us from your performance!
Even Jordan abandoned his cold expression as his brow furrowed like a mountain range. âYouâre the ambassador for Burnett Group?â
Jonathanâs face fell apart in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock. âJordan, donât you know itâs me? Iâve been doing this for five years!
âThese five years, Iâve worked tirelessly for the Burnettsâ business⦠Iâve been liveâstreaming, attending press conferences, and constantly interacting with fans⦠Iâve given my all to this job. And you had no idea?â
Jordan shook his head without hesitation. âI really didnât know.â
Jonathan felt like heâd been stabbed in the chest!
âBesides, Burnett Groupâs profits havenât shown significant growth over the past few years, which means you havenât been a good ambassador.â
Jonathan felt like heâd been stabbed again!
âFurthermore, a starâs popularity is shortâlived, usually lasting only a year or so. Since you havenât brought in high returns in this time frame, the company can easily replace you.â
Jonathan felt like heâd been stabbed once more.
As Jordan was about to speak up again, Jonathan clutched his chest and stumbled out of the room, mumbling. âEnjoy your chat⦠Iâm going to go set up a stall and sell knives by the river or somethingâ¦
Milly looked at him dumbfoundedly.
She then glanced at Jordan with concern and deliberated before speaking up, Jordan, Jonathanâs worked hard⦠Maybe we shouldnât replace him after all.â
This time, Jordan didnât object and just responded with a cold hum.
Jonathan was his brother; no matter how useless he was, Jordan couldnât abandon him.
So, he could just make do with him.
The lively discussion went on as Stephanie sat on the couch beside them, her eyes flashing with malice as
she clenched her fists.
Whyâ¦
