Chapter 763 Meeting Emma Again

? The Lewis family is not a well-known family in California, nor is it a famous name in American high society, but its family's wealth is ranked among the top in the entire California. ≥≥ Taking advantage of Huaguo's overseas real estate boom, he made a fortune. His owner, Pound Lewis, was listed in the top 30 of the Forbes wealth list because he holds shares of Dream Real Estate with a total market value of 23.7 billion US dollars.

If you are rich, you can be considered a nouveau riche at best. In order to make money for himself, Pound made a lot of money in these upper-class circles. Once again, in order to walk the Oscars red carpet, he specially spent 1 billion US dollars to become a shareholder of Warner Bros. Of course he would not miss a world-class charity gala like this.

However, due to business reasons, he himself did not have time to go in person, so he sent his son, Berkeley Lewis, to attend the charity gala instead of him.

However, compared to his rich father, Berkeley Lewis is undoubtedly an uneducated bastard. Apart from driving around in the sports car his father bought for him all day long, he hangs out with Hollywood girls everywhere under his father's name. He is an out-and-out playboy.

After seeing Emma Watson, he was immediately attracted by her noble and glamorous temperament, so he resorted to his usual pick-up trick and asked her to dance. Unfortunately, Emma didn't give his father any face and politely declined his invitation.

As a woman who gave a women's rights speech at the United Nations, Emma will not bow her head just because her father is on the Forbes wealth list. Berkeley's "good reputation" is not a secret in Hollywood, and she instinctively dislikes this kind of playboy.

As for Warner Bros. shareholders?

Many shareholders of Warner Bros. have gone, saying that there are a little less than twenty or so. American companies generally have a loose shareholding structure, 10% of the shares can be admitted to the board of directors, and 30% of the shares are enough to be the chairman.

However, Mr. Berkeley obviously did not expect that he would be rejected so simply by a second-tier movie star. Just when he harassed Emma with obvious and suggestive words over and over again, and finally wanted to put his arms around her shoulders, Emma, ​​who couldn't bear it anymore, finally exploded and poured champagne all over his face.

While taking champagne, her hand accidentally knocked over the crystal glass on the table, so that the sound of the glass breaking attracted the attention of the surrounding guests.

The originally glued bangs stuck to his face, and the lime-flavored wine juice dripped down the tips, splashing champagne all over his face, and Berkeley Lewis was completely stunned. The gaze around him plunged him into a vortex of embarrassment, and the bewilderment in his eyes was gradually replaced by anger.

After recovering from the impulse, Emma's face gradually turned pale.

At that time, she splashed it out of anger, but when she calmed down, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have gone too far.

"Very good, very good..." His lips trembled angrily, and Berkeley stared at Emma with indescribable haze.

If it wasn't for someone watching, he might not be able to resist.

But he can't, do something to the female guests at the banquet, don't say he can't afford to lose this person, if this gets out, his face-conscious father will kill him alive!

Seeing that the boss was splashed all over the face, the bodyguard next to him came forward and watched Emma say a word lightly.

"Apologize."

The burly muscles bulged the suit, like an orangutan wearing human clothes. Seeing that Emma didn't respond, the bodyguard clenched his fist expressionlessly, and the crackling sound made Emma's face paler with fright.

"It's not gentlemanly to intimidate a lady."

Walking to the side with a smile, Jiang Chen didn't look at the bodyguard, but looked at Mr. Lewis.

Seeing that someone was nosy, Berkeley raised his eyebrows and turned to look at that person. But when he saw Jiang Chen's face clearly, his face turned green immediately.

If it is understandable that some people didn't recognize Jiang Chen's face a year ago, but if there are still people who can't recognize him after being screened by various news for a whole year, then it can only be said that he is out of touch with this era.

Originally, Berkeley planned to say some harsh words and find some niggers to deal with her when he returned to California, but when he saw Jiang Chen standing here, he immediately dismissed the idea of ​​killing her.

No matter how you say it, the Future Group is at the same level as the Boston Consortium. Such a behemoth cannot be compared with the richest people on the Forbes wealth list. Others set fire to beat people, this guy set fire to beat a country. If he got into trouble with this God of Plague, let alone his father, even ten fathers combined would not be able to save him!

"sorry."

Honestly admitting his mistake, Berkeley lowered his head and pulled off his bodyguard, and left without saying a word.

Although he is a dude, he is not stupid.

Seeing Berkeley leaving in such a disheveled manner, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little bored while smiling.

The unpleasant atmosphere dissipated quickly, most of the guests present were not good-natured people, and the party returned to a lively and peaceful atmosphere. Seeing that dude walk away with his bodyguard in a desperate manner, the cowardly Alex finally heaved a sigh of relief, stepped forward, and viciously gave the middle fingers to the backs of the two.

"God, my sister, are you all right?"

"Why didn't you come just now!" Emma gave her brother a hard look, but she didn't mean to blame.

With her brother's small body, ten fingers might not be able to beat him with one finger.

"I..." Alex scratched the back of his head with a blushing face, and immediately moved out of Jiang Chen with a playful smile, "Didn't I go to find a rescue?"

Emma and Jiang Chen met their gazes, holding their left arm with their right hand, and looked away embarrassedly.

"Thanks."

Honestly, she was avoiding him. Jiang Chen never told her the reason why he chose her to star in "The Iron Curtain of Time and Space". It's not because she feels good about herself, her overprotective intuition tells her that his intentions for herself may be the same as that of the man just now, but it's not so obvious.

Thinking of this, she felt some indescribable feeling in her heart.

If it was him who subtly ruled himself, would he really have the confidence to reject Berkeley, reject him?

The mood is complicated and complicated, but this thank you is very sincere. Because she knew very well that if it wasn't for Jiang Chen, even if she passed this test, she might not have a better time when she returned to California.

"You're welcome." Jiang Chen smiled. He didn't think as much as she did, but he just helped out when he saw an acquaintance in trouble, "But it's better to think carefully before doing it, after all, you can't expect the boss There are so many benevolent gentlemen who happen to be at your service."

The richer you are, the more you cherish your feathers.

Due to their status, most people just looked at this side. Anyone who knows how to do business will figure out whether it is worth offending a billionaire for a starlet. It was precisely because of this that Jiang Chen was the only one who stepped forward to wade into this muddy water, and he alone didn't need to settle the score.

He didn't greet Emma for too long, Jiang Chen saw that the time was almost up, so he said goodbye to his siblings and went to the agreed place to meet Xia Shiyu who came out of the bathroom.

There is still half an hour before the auction will start, and taking advantage of this time, he plans to fill his stomach first. The food on this long table can be said to be full of color, fragrance and taste. It is a great pity that he has not even touched it after entering the venue for so long.

When he arrived at the agreed place, Jiang Chen found that Xia Shiyu had been waiting for a long time.

"Who is she? It feels... a bit familiar."

"Emma Watson, the spokesperson for the nutritional supplements of Future Biotech, she tied her head up, and I didn't recognize her at first." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Hermione?"

"That's right, but if you call her that, she probably won't be happy." Jiang Chen said jokingly.

What is your relationship with her?

Xia Shiyu was about to ask this question at first, but after thinking about it, she swallowed the sentence again.

If you ask me that way... what is the relationship between me and him? (To be continued.) 8
