Chapter 86 Celebrity Endorsements

Book:A King Reborn in Shadows Published:2024-6-4

After Flynn successfully transferred the money, Madeline and her family were all stunned. They couldn’t believe where Flynn had come up with so much money from. After a brief moment of shock, the other relatives rushed forward with contracts in hand.
“Move aside, I’m going first!” shouted an older relative as he pushed his way to the front and slammed his contract on the table in front of Flynn.
“This is 1 million dollars, give me my share first!” he demanded loudly.
Flynn didn’t even bother to look up as he calmly replied, “When you learn some manners, then we can talk business.”
“And by the way,” he continued sternly. “I saw you insulting Mr. Kaur and Madeline earlier. Apologize to them now or keep your contract for yourself!”
The older relative huffed and puffed but Charlotte pulled him back saying dismissively, “You know that’s 1 million dollars right? He definitely doesn’t have that kind of money. He’s just trying to trick you into apologizing for my uncle.”
“You’re an elder,” she continued confidently while looking at him directly in the eye. “How could you apologize to someone younger than yourself?”
With this statement from Charlotte, the older relative was momentarily taken aback while another relative had already received a transfer of 1. 3 million dollars.
He became anxious immediately and pushed Charlotte aside before bowing deeply in front of Matteo saying apologetically,
“Matteo, I have a bad temper and insulted you earlier; I apologize.”
Matteo awkwardly smiled and was about to say something polite, but the other person had already rushed into the crowd to exchange money.
In no time, most of the Kaur family’s relatives had completed their transfers.
“I never thought that little bastard was so rich! Hehe… 800 thousand is back! That idiot who spent 20 million on a piece of broken land is really stupid!”
“I’ve never seen such a foolish person in my life. What’s the point of spending 20 million if you’re not going to use it? He bought a piece of worthless land where even dogs won’t go!”
“Don’t think that we’ll be grateful just because he helped Madeline buy the contract. This is what she owes us! Haha, now that we’ve received our money, I’m so happy! We didn’t lose out on this one!”
These relatives left the Kaur’s Group with smiles on their faces and high spirits.
Charlotte was pushed by her older relatives and stumbled, hitting her lower back against the corner of a table. It hurt.
Seeing this scene before her eyes made Charlotte’s face change again and again.
Sam saw that Flynn was capable of exchanging money and walked over with his contract in hand, smiling.
“Flynn, I have 2 million here. Can you help me exchange it?”
Flynn looked at Charlotte while holding onto the contract and sneered, “Do you remember our bet earlier?”
“What bet?” Sam looked puzzled.
Flynn leaned back slightly and said, “Charlotte made a bet with me. If Asco Entertainment apologizes, she’ll recognize me as her dad.”
“Give all your five-year dividends to Madeline’s family but she reneges.”
“What do you think we should do about this?”
Sam’s face darkened as he glared at Charlotte, his voice cold.
“I am the head of the family, and her opinion doesn’t matter.”
“Okay,” Flynn picked up the apology letter from Asco Entertainment and turned to Frank. “You heard Estella. Asco Entertainment is willing to have their stars endorse Kaur family for free.”
“The last page of the apology letter is a contract for endorsement.”
“The Kaur family is in trouble now and needs more influence to raise funds.”
“Having celebrities endorse them can make a big difference. Don’t you want that?”
Sam spoke in a low voice, “Flynn, what are you trying to say?”
“Nothing…” Flynn sneered as he held onto the apology letter. “I just feel like tearing something apart!”
He was about to tear it up.
“Hold on!” Frank couldn’t sit still anymore and quickly said, “Good son-in-law, advertising endorsements are especially important for Kaur family!”
“If you tear it up now, wouldn’t it be all for nothing?”
“Madeline and Matteo, why don’t you try persuading him?”
He looked at Matteo with a serious expression on his face.
Matteo shook his head helplessly. “Dad, Flynn is too stubborn. I can’t stop him!”
Madeline didn’t say a word and turned her head away, pretending not to hear.
Charlotte repeatedly humiliated Matteo and even called him by name, acting smug and arrogant. But when they lost the bet, Frank insisted on siding with Charlotte and didn’t give her any face.
Flynn had already spoken up for Charlotte so much, yet he still helped her struggle. It was too biased! Why should their family be bullied like this?
Seeing that Frank didn’t mention anything about apologizing, Flynn said coldly, “If that’s the case, then I’ll tear it up…”
“Don’t act rashly!” Frank panicked completely and quickly ordered Charlotte to kneel down and fulfill her bet.
He paused for a moment before continuing,”Kneel down to complete your bet!”
“Sam, willing to accept your loss. Your family’s dividends for the next five years will be transferred to Matteo’s family.”
“For these next few years, you guys better live frugally!”
Sam felt dizzy at the thought of losing out on five years of dividends. Did that mean they’ll have to rely solely on their salaries for those five years?
“This spoiled girl, always wasting money and embarrassing herself!”
Charlotte shook her head in protest as she faced her grandfather. “Grandpa, I-”
“Kneel down!” Frank turned around and flung his hand.
Thud!
Charlotte knelt straight down.
The crowd couldn’t help but gasp in shock. The daughter of the Kaur family actually kneeled to Matteo’s son-in-law!
Flynn waved his hand indifferently and said, “Don’t call me dad. I don’t want a daughter like you.” He then transferred 2 million to Sam.
As soon as Charlotte saw the money transfer go through, she wiped away her tears and once again wore an expression of anger on her face. Today was a complete disaster for her: she lost the CEO position, all benefits were given to Madeline, Estella slapped her across the face, and now Flynn almost made her call him dad while kneeling before him. She had completely lost face…
“Wait for me! This isn’t over!” Charlotte glared at Flynn and clenched her fists in anger.
Madeline looked around, feeling like she was in a dream. Alan, whom she had always trusted, had run away with the money. It was Flynn, whom she had always looked down upon, who helped clean up the mess.
Madeline couldn’t help but wonder if everything that happened before was not related to Alan at all but rather Flynn’s doing. However, this thought quickly disappeared as Madeline shook her head.
Flynn spent ten years in prison; how could he know such a big shot in Niarak? Paulina came to Flynn’s side and said with a smile, “Flynn! Our family still has 3 million left. Why don’t you take some?”
Flynn thought for a moment and smiled, “Auntie, I’m broke.”
He earned billions of dollars by curing many influential families’ illnesses while he was in prison. He could easily have three million dollars without any problem. He only said that to leave some room for Matteo’s family so they could get rich together when the city development documents were released.
Paulina’s face immediately darkened as she angrily exclaimed, “You useless person! You have so much money yet keep it hidden from your family!”
“If it weren’t for today’s incident, would you continue to hide it?”
“You heartless thing!”
“Shut up!” Matteo scolded. “Flynn spent so much money buying that piece of land just to help Madeline out. That’s already enough of a gesture!”
“How can you say that about him again?”
After speaking, he turned to Flynn and said, “Flynn, we won’t let you spend this money for nothing. We’ll definitely pay you back in the future.”
“I just don’t understand where you got so much money from. We can’t do anything illegal!”
