"What do you want?"

Noel frowned as she backed away, surprised that Chet was so bold that he was ready to make a move in public.

"Oh, don't misunderstand."

Chet stopped and smiled smugly. "I don't mind telling you that I'm assistant to Sil Lionheart, vice chief of Volsung Sect's Caudal Hall. It must therefore be fate that brings us together, Ms. York... Why don't you consider a partnership with Lionhearts?" "Sure, the Lionhearts do not have a monopoly on showbiz like the Soranos, but with me here, you will have protection. Just join us Lionhearts, and I'll ask Sil to invest in you, elevating you to unprecedented heights. How about that?" Chet thought that his offer was very attractive, since people were always terrified and respectful every time he mentioned the Lionhearts.

As such, even Noel-who was famous throughout Draconia-was just another girl in Chet's eyes.

After all, would she dare go against the Lionhearts?

That was when Frank strode up, staring at Chet in amusement as he asked, "And what do you get in return?"

"Nothing."

Chet had quickly presumed that Frank was Noel's personal bodyguard and did not show Frank much respect.

In fact, he never bothered to look his way, as his eyes were fixed on Noel as he gulped and did his best to control his libido. "All I hope is for Ms. York to go out with me for drinks, after which I'll give her a full-body check up. After all..." Chet glanced at Noel's bulging breasts, no longer hiding his lust. "Someone should replace out if those are natural or manmade, don't you think?"

At that point, even Noel was scowling.

She was no fool, as she understood that Chet was using the Lionhearts' influence to call for sexual favors.

That was why she did not hesitate to refuse. "Mr. Jonas, I always wear a wire. Everything you said is recorded, so I hope you'll watch yourself." "Recorded?"

Chet was surprised Noel would do something like that, though it made sense when he thought about it.

She was Draconia's top actress-why would she not have a backup plan?

However, Chet's eyes remained fixed on Noel's face, the fire in his loins spreading throughout his body.

He almost lost all his cool right then, though he soon had an idea.

"Haha." He chuckled. "I wouldn't push my luck since you've refused."

Nearby, Urian was wiping the sweat off his brow.

Knowing Chet, things were not going to end nicely, as the bloodsucker was a mad dog who never gave up once the chase started.

While Urian thought this was a rare exception, and just as he was about to relax and actually discuss business with Noel, Chet suddenly walked up to him.

Throwing his arm around Urian's pudgy neck, he whispered into his ear, "Keep them here. Remember, I'll show you if Noel leaves!"

With that, Chet flashed a sinister smile at Urian before leaving the office.

Urian was once again sweating all over his head when he heard Chet's threat.

He knew it-Chet was never a gentleman or someone who backed down when the going got tough!

He clearly had his sights on Noel and would bend her to his will, even if it meant making enemies!

And unsurprisingly, as soon as Chet left Urian's office, he whipped out his phone and called Sil Lionheart.
