Chapter 377 Refusal

Elspeth asked him to change into a new outfit for the collaboration. Once he was gone, she made a call. “Lisa, how

is the investigation of my mother going?”

“Elsie, your mother is an expert in hiding herself. I’ve scoured the whole nation, and still, I couldn’t find anything.”

Elspeth had a bad feeling about this. Something’s off. A pause later, she said, “If you can’t find anything on land,

why don’t you try the waters?”

Oh, right! “Got it, Elsie. I’ll do it right now.”

Elspeth hung up and composed herself. She then took Jethro to Skylar. Skylar looked ethereal, just like a fairy.

Elspeth loved that elvish feeling she had about her.

The moment they met, Jethro mocked, “That’s all?”

Skylar’s slender hand hung in mid-air, her smile freezing up.

Elspeth shot Jethro a glare. “He’s spoiled. Ignore him, Skylar.”

Jethro scratched his head. Nonchalantly, he said, “What? That was just a random comment. She’s not that

beautiful.”

Skylar was beloved by a lot of fans, so she teared up right after hearing what Jethro said about her.

“What are you talking about?” Elspeth couldn’t believe Jethro. He never talked like that before. What’s his deal

today?

“Just the truth.” He looked at Skylar from head to toe once more and shook his head exasperatedly. Then, he

smacked his lips. “Sorry if you feel upset, Skylar. Please forgive me. I just wanted to tell the truth.” He managed to

turn an apology into another attack.

Skylar teared up, and she said, “Ma’am, I don’t think I can work with him.”

She had seen Jethro’s live stream before. She thought he was handsome and nice enough to befriend his fans. He

was also a pro gamer. To top things off, he came from a good family. Skylar was just a regular girl who had nothing

but her looks, and she liked men like Jethro. However, after their first meeting, she lost all affection for him.

“Fine by me. I told you she wouldn’t work with me. Collaboration canceled, then.”

Skylar burst into tears. What? How is this my fault?

“Now, calm down, Skylar. I’ll talk to him.” She pulled Jethro’s ear and dragged him outside. “What the hell do you

want?” Elspeth crossed her arms angrily.

“I told you. I won’t work with any girls except for you.” Jethro rubbed his ear. Stubbornly, he said, “Why must you

force me to work with her? We have a lot of other guys. Why me?”

“She’s the most popular influencer besides you. If you work together, that will drive a lot of traffic to the company’s

platform.”

Jethro pouted. “I don’t care about that.”

“But I do. If you refuse this work with her, then you should resign.” She gave him an ultimatum.

Noticing the determination in her eyes, Jethro froze. “Do you care about traffic that much?”

“This is my company. If we have good traffic, we can expand. Of course, I care,” she said seriously.

Jethro smiled. “Fine. I’ll do it. For you.”

What is going on in his head? “Not for me. For you.”

“That settles it. So, when are we starting?”

“Right now.” She took him back into the room.

Skylar was still sobbing. When they came in, she shot Jethro an angry look.

“We’ve talked things out, and he’s willing to work with you now.”

Skylar froze in disbelief. “But he said he wouldn’t work with me just now.”

“Ah, that was horsesh*t.”

Jethro shot Elspeth a look. “Horsesh*t? Mind your language, ma’am. You’re the president of a company.”

“You mind your manners.” She raised her hand, threatening to pull his ear again. Scared, Jethro held his ear and

moved back. Elspeth turned to Skylar and noticed her spacing out. Worried that she might be intimidated, Elspeth

smiled kindly. “Don’t worry. I’m nice to girls in general, but this idiot needs some taming.”

Skylar didn’t think Elspeth was fierce. She just thought there were some secrets between her and Jethro. Everyone

in the company knew that Jethro liked Elspeth, and there had been a lot of gossip about both of them recently. She

had been wondering how Elspeth managed to tame this mischievous soul, but now she could understand why. She

nodded. A collaboration with Jethro was good for her, and she had no reason to refuse. “I’ll work with him.”

Jethro extended his hand. “It’s my honor to work with you.”

Skylar was surprised. She couldn’t believe he was trying to get close to her. It was like he had forgotten what he

said to her earlier. However, now that he was extending his hand, she shook it. So big. And his fingers are cold, but

his palm is warm. She felt an electric current coursing through her hand.

“Electrifying, wasn’t it?” Jethro smirked.

Skylar blushed. She muttered, “Just a bit…” Does he like me? I knew it. Everyone loves me. I’m the lovely Skylar

Byron—

“Good.” Jethro nodded. “I should ditch wool sweaters next time. Can’t believe they still have static on them.”

Oh, so that’s what he meant. Skylar blushed harder.

Noticing her spacing out, Jethro huddled closer and smiled at her. “Were you thinking about something else?”
