Chapter 750

Chapter 750

Kareem Mcguire smiled, "Katie, you know we all rely on our sister-in-

law. Uncle Raiden also said not to make her angry. Hurry up and

listen.”

Katie bit her lip and swallowed all the embarrassment and shame in her

heart. "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said those things

earlier.”

Upon hearing her apology, Carolyn's stern expression softened slightly.

"You shouldn't apologize to me; you should apologize to Jasper.”

Katie felt a little overwhelmed - the lady of the mighty Mcguire Group

was apologizing again and again to the Howlett siblings?

They were really trying to make her look bad!

But given the current situation, she had no choice but to apologize

again, "I'm sorry."

Jasper snorted; he could tell that Carolyn held a high position in the

Mcguire family from their usual interactions with each other. He felt

relieved.

"Sis, you guys go ahead and eat; see you tomorrow,” Jasper said as he

glanced at the young man who must be Kareem - Katie's cousin from

another branch of the Mcguire family.

After Lukas left Mcguire Group, Kareem became Carolyn's right-hand

man at a young age because of his smoothness and high-handedness.

For some reason, Jasper didn't think he was as gentle as he appeared

on surface.

Jasper returned to his seat where all dishes were served; it seemed like

everyone had been waiting for him before they started eating.

As soon as he sat down without picking up his fork yet though Sylvia

spoke coldly, "Some people are just born brainless.”

Jasper was wondering if Miss Andrews was talking about Katie.

Before Jasper could say anything, Franklin asked Sylvia, "I heard she

specifically requested working with Simeon? Do you agree with that,

honey?"

Sylvia chuckled in response, "Simeon has good reputation, popularity

and signature work. She has Mcguire Group behind her but Simeon

has me!"

Jasper wondered if Sylvia wanted to give a slap in Katie's face. After

all, if Katie wanted to work with Simeon, it would definitely need

approval from Sylvia first.

Recently there were news everywhere online about how the heiress of

the Mcguire Group was going to work with Simeon.

Simeon had not responded, and neither had Katie. It was unclear

whether she was just trying to ride on Simeon's popularity or what, but

it was rumored that Katie had been a fan of Simeon's even before she

became famous.

It was late at night on the day when Simeon suddenly posted a tweet,

"Joining “The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady’, guest-starring for five

minutes!"

After he posted it, there were soon a ton of comments from fans below.

"What? Simeon, are you going to act with Eden? The two top stars in

one frame?"

"Ah! Sylvia's drama, you're going to make a guest appearance?"

"For my Simeon, I must buy tickets! Watch it twice or three times! Is it

really only five minutes?"

“I thought... you were supposed to work with Katie? How do you have

time to make a guest appearance?"

As soon as this comment was posted...

Unexpectedly, within minutes, Simeon replied to it: "Nope. I'm joining

Mr. Davila's drama crew!"

This was an outright denial from Simeon!

With his popularity and influence, he immediately became trending

topic within minutes.

#Simeon denies working with Katie

When Katie saw this hashtag, she was angry.

The rumor about her wanting to work with Simeon had been spread by

her own team in order to generate buzz; they really were discussing

working together!

Simeon had agreed; they just hadn't signed any contracts yet.

But then today Simeon's agent suddenly called and said that there

wouldn't be any collaboration.

And then Simeon remarked on it and even made it a trending topic on

Twitter!

Katie seethed with anger. "Who does he think he is - some kind of big

shot celebrity? what right does he have refusing her like that?'

She couldn't sleep at all due to how angry she felt, so she went

downstairs where Kareem happened upon her as soon as he returned

home reeking of alcohol.

"Kareem... have you been drinking? You smell terrible."

She covered her nose in disgust.

He chuckled softly and glanced over at her unpleasant expression.

"Katie, don't you look too happy huh?"

"How could I be happy?! Just go take a look at what's trending."

Kareem already knew about it and a hint of malice flashed in his eyes.

"Why have you been having such a rough time lately? First, your sister-

in-law scolded you, and now the partnership fell through. Come on, let's

go to my room. I will help cheer you up.”

He reached out and put his arm around Katie's shoulder as they went

upstairs to his room. "Katie, do you think maybe your sister-in-law is

just really hard on you all the time? Maybe she doesn't like you?"
