“Oh no no no! Mr. Clark, I didn’t mean that. We’ll wait for you.”

The person on the other end of the line hurriedly hung up the phone.

Carrie Thomas covered her mouth and laughed, “You’re so arrogant. We’re clearly in the wrong here.”

Harrison Clark shrugged, “I bet a hundred bucks. The people waiting for us won’t be mad and will actually take us more seriously. Believe it or not?”

“Alright, alright, I get it! You’re so fearless, you can handle anything,” Carrie said, spreading her hands out in annoyance. “I’m just worried this will have a negative impact on the company.”

Harrison shook his head, “No, this is actually the most efficient way.”

Carrie remained silent.

There it was again, the familiar feeling of “running out of time”. She didn’t even know why he was so anxious.

Meanwhile, Harrison was all laid back while waiting for traffic.

On the other side, outside the gates of a $40 million mansion in Beverly Hills, a group of Harrison’s fellow Chinese people were anxiously waiting for his arrival.

This group of about a dozen people included three or four fashionable young men and women with exquisite makeup, the epitome of fresh-faced celebrities.

At the moment, they were surrounding the party’s organizer’s representative and the mansion owner’s personal butler, chattering incessantly.

The main speaker was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes.

If there were any familiar faces in Chinese entertainment or journalists present, they would recognize him.

This was Maxwell Campbell, the second-largest shareholder and executive director of the Global Entertainment Company.

In the Chinese entertainment industry, he was quite a big shot.

However, here, his influence didn’t extend as far.

The celebrities he had brought with him, who were famous in China and had at least a hundred bodyguards and countless fans, didn’t have any status here either.

The butler was impatient and tried to turn around and leave several times.

A “middleman” who was playing the role of mediator kept holding him back.

Out of respect for the agent’s influence in Hollywood, the butler never managed to leave.

“Mr. Campbell, as you know, this is a small party held by the Grammy Committee. Without the corresponding invitation and registration in advance, I can’t let you guys in,” the butler said.

Maxwell moved closer and lowered his voice, “There are so many people inside, hundreds of them, right? A few more wouldn’t be a big deal, would it?”

The butler shook his head, “No, it would be a big problem. Let me show you: of all the official guests and registered individuals, there are only seven Chinese names. Chinese faces would stand out. Besides, your group is dressed so… eye-catching. It’s not allowed.”

The young men and women celebrities had indeed put a lot of effort into their outfits for this occasion.

The cheapest clothes were custom-made evening dresses and suits worth at least $100,000 each. Especially for the female celebrities, their low-cut dresses revealed a large area of skin, and they were wearing rented luxury necklaces worth millions of dollars.

Maxwell lowered his voice, “One hundred thousand.”

The butler remained silent.

“Two hundred thousand.”

Still silent.

“Two hundred and fifty thousand.”

“Hmm…” The butler appeared tempted and hesitated.

But after thinking about his career, he finally resisted the temptation and refused the devilish offer.

Fearing that Maxwell would suddenly offer an even higher price and increase his own pain, the butler decisively turned and left.

It was a difficult decision.

The group exchanged glances but could do nothing but wait and stand guard outside.

Before long, more and more European and American celebrities began to appear as the start time of the party approached, and they all entered the villa precisely on time.

Maxwell simply had the young men and women celebrities stand outside the mansion gates, pretending to walk by and using the European and American bigwigs as their background while they took their own photos.

Unsurprisingly, the pictures turned out quite impressive.

The turning point of the situation occurred ten minutes after the official start of the party when the butler came out.

“You guys are so lucky. Two invited Chinese musicians are late and probably won’t be coming, so two of you can go in, one male and one female. But I will only write the names of the invited attendees on the entry roster, and I won’t make fake invitations for you. Once you’re inside, try not to chat with people. Eat something, take a look around, and then finish what you want to do as soon as possible and leave. Don’t cause any trouble for me.”

Maxwell was overjoyed, nodding and bowing as he repeatedly expressed his gratitude. He then chose one male and one female to enter the party.

As for the others, they could only accept their fate with sorrow.

Opportunity was fleeting and rare, and when rejected right at the doorstep, one could only blame themselves for not being appealing enough..
