Chapter 144
Before Truman finished speaking, Valerie’s face immediately turned paled.
“Mr. Truman, these two classmates of mine have been waiting for me for a long time, and I really can’t
attend that dinner party you mentioned.”
Valerie knew what Truman was really up to.
After all, a serious dinner party would not require a female artist to attend.
Truman had gotten used to the unspoken rule in the entertainment industry.
It was just that Valerie had been stubbornly adhering to the code of conduct in her heart.
Truman’s tone showed that this should not be the first time Valerie had refused him.
However, Strickland was the investor this time. So Truman was not willing to accommodate Valerie

Moreover, Truman had promised Strickland.
Therefore, hearing Valerie’s words, Truman said coldly, “Classmates reunion can be organized whenever
you want. This investor is powerful. You will have a bright future if you curry favor with him. Likewise, if
you refuse, the company will suffer loses if the investor decides to take
revenge!”
“Mr. Truman, I really…”
Valerie still wanted to refuse, but Truman was furious and interrupted her directly.
“Valerie! Do you know how much manpower and money the company has spent for your debut? Ask
those popular artists nowadays. Who has not participated in the dinner parties? Do you think you can
make the call even before you succeed? I didn’t bother with you when you excused yourself in the past.
That was because the people who invited you were not significant enough. Just now, I have clearly told
you that this investor is very important to the company, so you cannot refuse! Moreover, this male
classmate of yours has beat up Melinda. For your sake, I’ve already let things slide. But now, you want to
disobey me?”
Truman, who was in a rage, finally exposed his innermost thoughts.
The reason he didn’t back Melinda up was so that Valerie would be grateful to him, and then he would be
able to make the request for Valerie to attend the dinner.
However, he didn’t expect that Valerie’s attitude was still so resolute.
Strickland was not someone Truman could just offend.
With so many people in the room, Truman reprimanded Valerie, embarrassing her.
The backup dancers did not dare to say anything but only prayed silently in their hearts that Valerie

At this time, only one person was the happiest.
That was Melinda.
She looked like she was watching the fun and couldn’t wait for Valerie to be dragged to a dinner party by
Truman and then be harassed by a pervert.
In this way, Valerie could no longer be noble.
Just as Melinda was gloating over Valerie, Skylar suddenly asked, “Let things slide? Who told you to let
things slide? I’ll settle this account with you!”
If Truman had not suddenly appeared, Skylar intended to spare Melinda for the sake of Valerie.
But unexpectedly, Truman came up with a rebuke, and then forced Valerie to attend the dinner with
ulterior motives. Truman even threatened Valerie with the fact that he had beaten Melinda.
Since that was the case, Skylar was going to take actions.
