“Mr. Bell, is this okay

As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned in his acortant and cost

Presumably, Tinley had asked someone to draw it up in advance. The terms and conditionery comple Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so thick

It was a contract of servitude, binding him to the Holmes family
But the terms were so lavish, it felt less like selling himself and more like being kept
He closed it, placed his hand on the title page, and looked at the time on has
In fact, Gabriel had already signed a contract before, an entertainment agency
company.
It was a task handed down by the higher–ups, so that contract also passed through Henry’s hands. He thought le long time and finally gave Gabriel an S–class.
Because Gabriel was good–looking, the kind of looks that one could tell at a glance would definitely become popular in the future.
But the higher–ups also said not to arrange any work for him for the time being so it had been shelved for many days
But in the future, this 5–class contract would no longer be needed because there was a separate pro- joining the Holmes family
No matter how little the performance was, they wouldn’t get a penny less of the money they deserve. Just like him, although his performance was at the bottom every year, his annual salary had never changed..
It was just that Henry was always on tenterhooks, afraid of being scolded every ume he saw Tinley
Someone like Gabriel would definitely be snatched up by a lot of entertainment companies if he were out there if they hadn’t acted fast enough, it wouldn’t have been their turn
To get a better understanding of Gabriel’s situation, Henry had his people investigate him a few days ago.
Then he learned about the tragic experiences Gabriel had had before
When Gabriel first entered the industry, he was too young and didn’t know anything. No one hail ever taught him, and he was tricked by an unscrupulous small company into signing a very oppressive contract, which was for twenty years.
He moved from the small town where his family lived to the city where the company w
located, and changed schools.
The company did intend to
train him well.

But the newly transferred female VP at that company had set her sights on him–a woman with particular tastes, parachuted into her position with connections thick as armor
She colluded with Gabriel’s agent and set him up several times, trying to sleep with him.
Everything was supposed to be seamless, but somehow Gabriel managed to escape every time.
After several such encounters, Gabriel, no matter how naive, realized her intentions and began to deliberately avoid the female vice president, even scolding her at his angriest
Because of this, the vice president deliberately suppressed his resources.
The vice president had a background, and no one in the company dared to speak up, it wasn’t worth offending her for an unknown person
She would occasionally give Gabriel some messy resources and then sit in her office waiting for him to come begging for mercy.
Although she hadn’t gotten him yet, the vice president had inexplicable possessiveness and didn’t want his appearance to be seen by people, so the resources she gave were all roles that deliberately made him ugly
Gabriel didn’t indulge her, he wasn’t picky, he would act whatever the company gave him, and he would accept whatever salary they paid.
He even felt that this was a good thing, bring ugly meant no one around him recognized him, so it was convenient for him to go to school.
Although the lowest month was only 700 dollars.
With his resources suppressed, he had a lot of free time every day At first, he didn’t care because he was young and didn’t understand anything until later, when his parents passed away.
After his parents passed away, they left him with a younger brother who was born not long ago and had a disabled right leg.
To pay for his leg, he went to find a side hustle
Probably because he was too handsome, when he went to leam martial arts, the owner’s wife of the martial arts gym, under her husband’s fury, insisted on giving him an 50% discount
And she went to the martial arts gym every day to watch him practice nuntul arts.
Every day, she was more punctual than the employees.
Those who didn’t know would think that there was a hundred–million perfect attendance award waiting for her.
He was gifted, and the owner went from rejecting him at the beginning to appreciating him, and finally even waived the discounted fee
After losing to Gabriel, he was not angry, but instead, he helped pave the way for Gabriel to study at a higher level.
What Gabriel learned was mixed and messy, but he didn’t mund, as long as he could earn money.
After learning about Gabriel’s situation, his last master recommended his current side job–a shady, borderline–illegal profession professional errand runner
The task was risky but lucrative, and many of his seniors were involved. They even helped him when he first started
Now, he had tens of millions in savin

However, colleagues monitoring his account said that his tens of millions of balance disappeared a few hours ago.
Tinley had it investigated, and all the money was returned to the Jones family.
It was also because of this that the contract in his hand existed.
Henry was very satisfied. He felt that Gabriel was sensible enough not to jeopardize Yvonne for petty cash.
Henry also checked his performance as a runner and found that he was very efficient.
Most importantly, as this was an entertainment company, Gabriel’s striking looks made him a potential golden goose.
Henry could finally escape his perennially bottom–ranking performance reviews. The mere thought thrilled him.
Tinley probably thought the same way, so even though Gabriel’s ability was not enough, she still had people draw up
contract.
After twenty minutes of waiting in the office, the agent’s phone vibrated a few times.
He glanced at the message that popped up and whispered to Henry, who was resting with his eyes closed, “Mr. Bell, he’s here. I’ll go downstairs and get him”
“Okay.”
The agent opened the office door, took the elevator down, and saw him on the first floor of the group.
The two young receptionists blushed and peeked over there from time to time.
The agent walked over, called his name, and said, “Let’s go, Gabriel. Mr. Bell is waiting for you in the office”
Hearing his words, Gabriel was stunned for a moment, his footsteps following closely behind the agent, his delicate eyebrows showing a bit of contempilation
Past experiences made him wary
In the elevator, he couldn’t help but ask very carefully, “Nolan, is Mr. Bell looking for me about work?”
Gabriel knew who Mr. Bell was, the CEO of this company, but he couldn’t understand why such a high–ranking executive would want to see a low–level employee like him.
When he first signed up with the company, the manager took him to the vice president’s office in the same way and then locked him in alone.
Under pressure from life, he now had to worry about his future
He was saddled with massive debt and had signed a five–year contract with this company. While live years wasn’t long, if he offended Mr. Bell, he might end up like before, earning nothing for five years.
For him right now, that would be disastrous.
So he wanted to prepare himself mentally and figure out how to handle the situation.
Nolan turned to him with an envious look and patted his shoulder lightly.
“Don’t worry. It’s a good thing.”
Gabriel instantly felt a chill down his spine. He glanced at the rising elevator and had the urge to turn around and run.
“If it’s a good thing. I’d rather not go

He was willing to do almost anything for money, but there were some lines he wouldn’t cross,
After a moment’s consideration, be decided his dignity mattered more. He said it plainly, hoping Nolan would understand.
The last time an agent had taken Gabriel to a VP’s office, he had also smiled and said, The VP has wonderful news for you”
Back then, he had been young and naive, foolishly believing something good awaited him.
After going there twice, he developed a phobia of the word “good thing, and now whenever he heard it, he couldn’t help but think of that fat and greasy vice president
Gabriel frowned, planning to leave as soon as the elevator stopped.
Nolan, his agent, raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard what Gabriel just said, and looked at him in disbelief.
“What did you say?”
What? How could anyone refuse the Jones family? They’re rich, powerful. Signing with them means never worrying about money again!
Knowing Gabriel’s situation, Nolan couldn’t help but feel it was a pity and tried to persuade him, “Think carefully. This kind of opportunity doesn’t come often. You’ll regret it if you pass it up. And given your family’s circumstances…
He trailed off, but the implication was clear.
Nolan meant well, but he didn’t know that to Gabriel, his words only confirmed Gabriel’s suspicions.
He was resolute, his eyes flashing with distaste, though his tone remained calm. “No need to reconsider. Thank you for your kindness”
Seeing his resolute attitude, Nolan couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.
He suppressed his frustration. “Well, you can personally tell Mr. Bell about this later. I can’t make the decision.”
More importantly, he could tell Henry had been looking forward to this meeting. If he returned with bad news, what if Henry took his anger out on him?
Gabriel understood his worries, and that suited him just fine.
He didn’t want to involve anyone else. Besides, Nolan had always treated him well, and his advice just now had been sincere, not fake pity.
Situations like
this were common in the entertainment industry, and as a top agent, Nolan had surely seen worse.
Everyone had their own perspective, shaped by their environment.
Gabriel didn’t blame Nolan, and he wouldn’t involve Nolan either.
He nodded and said yes.
Just then, the elevator arrived at the CEO’s floor.
Nolan walked ahead, still stunned that someone could refuse the Jones family’s offer, so he stayed silent.
Gabriel didn’t speak either, leaving the atmosphere heavy between them. When the office door opened, Gabriel saw the man Nolan had spoken of so often, Henry.
Henry had a dignified appearance, well–groomed and serious, nothing like the kind of person who would do that sort of thing.

Gabriel thought a wolf in sheep’s clothing” described him perfectly.
When they entered, Henry straightened up, eager to make a good first impression on his future cash cow and new colleague
But the moment Gabriel’s eyes landed on him, something felt off.
It wasn’t an illusion. Henry always felt a hint of disgust in his gaze.
He couldn’t help but wonder where he had left a bad impression.
He had always had a good image in the company. His assistant had shown him private group chats among employees, and no one had ever complained about him.
Aside from the Jones family’s overachieving executives, Henry had always been confident in himself.
So, this didn’t make sense.
After ushering Gabriel in. Nolan tactfully closed the office door behind him.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Gabriel’s heart sank, and his eyes instantly became alert.
He looked at the two people in front of him.
Besides Henry, there was a woman who looked very
unremarkable.
Her face was plain, her demeanor quiet, but the sharpness in her eyes betrayed her true nature.
Two people. I can take them if I have to, Gabriel thought.
“Have a seat,” Seeing him standing in the room for a long time, Henry suddenly said.
Just say it.”
This cold tone confirmed Henry’s suspicion: Gabriel really didn’t like him.
“Well, if he wanted to stand, fine.”
Henry opened the folder on top of the contract, pulled out several A4 sheets filled with Gabriel’s personal information, gave them a quick scan, then turned them around and slid them across the desk to Gabriel.
This was also given to him by Tinley, and it was much more detailed than what he had investigated.
With every line Gabriel read, his expression darkened further.
He was so angry that he laughed. These people were well prepared and had investigated everything about him.
He didn’t even bother pretending anymore, looking up with a cold glare.
“So, are you trying to threaten me
e with this?”
Henry was taken aback. He looked over with a hint of surprise in his eyes. “Is that what you think?”
His attitude was clearly so friendly.
Henry seemed to finally understand why Gabriel had taken such an instant dislike to him.
Henry realized Gabriel had misunderstood him. Not only might they be working together in the future, but more importantly, this deal represented his professional achievement, something that would determine whether he could hald his head high before Tinley.

So he had to explain.
“You must have misunderstood something. I’m not trying to threaten you by showing you for lament”
Gabriel remained silent, and Henry continued.
“The head of our family is very grateful for your protection of our young lady this morning in the wed me to bring you a gift of gratitude”
After he spoke, the woman who had been sitting silently beside him handed over a black bo
After Henry opened it, two cards were revealed.
The top card was a bank card.
Henry placed the bank card on the table and pushed it toward Gabriel
“There’s a hundred million in here. Compensation for the money you returned to the jones family?
