Chapter 191 Burnett Group’s Ambassador
Finished
Jordan picked up the file nonchalantly, his long fingers flipping through it slowly before his expression fell. He asked coldly, “Are there no endorsement for high–end fashion brands? No decent TV drama roles? The studio has been around for so long, and this is what they’ve managed to secure?”
Clark was taken aback.
These resources may not be top–notch compared to those of a major star, but Jonathan’s popularity was established, and he was already aiming for a Best Actor award. Therefore, all the resources he received were carefully selected and high–quality. Why did they all sound like trash when it came out of Jordan’s mouth?
Any one of these resources would be enough to make other celebrities in the industry go crazy.
Jordan’s face remained cold as he tossed the file onto the table, making a loud sound as the papers
scattered.
“The global brand ambassador contract for the Burnetts‘ electronic products is up for renewal in two years. We should let them go. According to the contract, we’ll compensate them every penny without exception, and on top of that, we’ll give them an additional 10% of their original payment. This endorsement will go to Milly. When the time comes, I’ll personally announce it at a press conference.”
Milly didn’t respond immediately, still stunned. “Huh?”
Clark coughed awkwardly and added, “Mr. Burnett, there are only two years left on the contract. Why not wait a bit longer? It’s not that urgent.”
Jordan narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark gaze flashing with annoyance. ‘Do we need to consider the ambassador’s feelings to terminate a contract?”
Clark hesitated. “Well… not exactly…”
Jordan seemed to have had enough. “Then let them go. We’ll do everything in our power to satisfy their demands, but if they don’t know what’s good for them, we’ll just expose some of their dirt.”
The entertainment industry was a complicated world. There were very few people in it with no dirt to dig.
Jordan was confident he could use people’s weakness against them.”
Milly finally reacted, surprised that Jordan would go to such lengths for her sake. She quickly waved her hand and tried to stop him. “You don’t need to do that, Jordan. As a new artist, I can’t take on such high- level resources right now. And I just got off the trending list; if I’m associated with the Burnetts agaj might just spark another wave of rumours.”
Silb
Actually, these weren’t the most important things; what was crucial was that Jordan couldn’t afford to waste money!
The Burnetts‘ company was already on the verge of bankruptcy; if they spent more money, they would just dig themselves deeper into debt.
It might be the final straw that breaks the camel’s back.
When Jordan saw Milly’s worried expression, he smiled softly and gently stroked her hair. “You don’t need

Milly was taken aback. Jordan seems to be missing the point!
At that moment, a voice rang out from the corner, “I don’t agree either!”
This outburst immediately changed Jordan’s gentle gaze into one of disgust.
“What does it have to do with you? Just stand still and shut up!”
Jonathan ignored everyone and rushed over to Jordan’s leg, hugging it tightly as he began to sob uncontrollably. Jordan, please don’t replace the ambassador! This ambassador is handsome and hardworking; if you replace him, it’ll be a loss for the Burnetts!”

Jordan raised an eyebrow, his disgust growing more apparent by the second and almost ready to boil over. “Let go!” he growled.
Jonathan refused to let go and continued to cling tightly to Jordan’s leg as he wailed loudly, Jordan, listen to the voices of the people! Tyranny will always be punished; people need democracy!”
Milly was speechless.
Wow! As far as I know, Jonathan isn’t well–educated; I never expected his thoughts to be so profound
But… isn’t that a bit of a stretch?
He even raised issues of politics!
Jonathan’s shouting gave Jordan a headache, and he rubbed his forehead in frustration before speaking coldly. “What does this have to do with you? Go stand in the corner!”
Jonathan’s face turned red with anger as he held tighter onto his pant leg. “How can you say that? It’s got everything to do with me!”
Jordan raised an eyebrow. “How so?”
He wanted to see what he could come up with.
“For example, Jonathan said, “we’re all from the same country, and we should love and care for each other like one family. How can you permit senseless violence and expose people’s secrets? That’s immoral!
“Just as a song goes,
The world is cruel
The world is wicked
It’s I alone whom you can trust in this whole city
I am your only friend…
Milly rolled her eyes. Why’s he singing out of nowhere?
She didn’t know about Jordan, but she herself felt the urge to slap Jonathan.
As expected, Jordan was already getting annoyed, and his eyes were scanning the room as if looking for something to hit Ionathan with Rut Jonathan was still lost in his own world singing away

Just as Jordan was about to lash out, Milly quickly grabbed Jonathan and pulled him back down, smiling and trying to calm the situation. Jonathan, stop singing. We don’t have time to waste, so just get to the point already.”
If you keep going. I’m going to sew your mouth shut!
Jonathan stopped singing and looked at Jordan’s dark face before shrinking back. “Oh, the point is that I’m the ambassador… So please don’t terminate the contract.”
Milly and Clark were speechless.
You could’ve just said that and saved us from your performance!
Even Jordan abandoned his cold expression as his brow furrowed like a mountain range. “You’re the ambassador for Burnett Group?”
Jonathan’s face fell apart in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock. “Jordan, don’t you know it’s me? I’ve been doing this for five years!
“These five years, I’ve worked tirelessly for the Burnetts‘ business… I’ve been live–streaming, attending press conferences, and constantly interacting with fans… I’ve given my all to this job. And you had no idea?”
Jordan shook his head without hesitation. “I really didn’t know.”
Jonathan felt like he’d been stabbed in the chest!
“Besides, Burnett Group’s profits haven’t shown significant growth over the past few years, which means you haven’t been a good ambassador.”
Jonathan felt like he’d been stabbed again!
“Furthermore, a star’s popularity is short–lived, usually lasting only a year or so. Since you haven’t brought in high returns in this time frame, the company can easily replace you.”
Jonathan felt like he’d been stabbed once more.
As Jordan was about to speak up again, Jonathan clutched his chest and stumbled out of the room, mumbling. “Enjoy your chat… I’m going to go set up a stall and sell knives by the river or something…
Milly looked at him dumbfoundedly.
She then glanced at Jordan with concern and deliberated before speaking up, Jordan, Jonathan’s worked hard… Maybe we shouldn’t replace him after all.”
This time, Jordan didn’t object and just responded with a cold hum.
Jonathan was his brother; no matter how useless he was, Jordan couldn’t abandon him.
So, he could just make do with him.
The lively discussion went on as Stephanie sat on the couch beside them, her eyes flashing with malice as
she clenched her fists.
Why…
