Chapter 433: Jordan’s A Liar! Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios “) Films?” Colton thought about it in his mind for a long time but he couldn’t remember any movies produced by J Films or any news about it. Colton looked at the rest of his former classmates and said, “Guys, have you ever heard of J Films? Am I the only uninformed one? How come I don’t have any impression of that name.” Her other classmates were confused too. “T’ve never heard of it either. There is indeed a J Corporation, though. But isn’t that a takeout company?” “L often watch movies and every time I do, I pay close attention to the movie producers and directors. I can guarantee that in the last five years, there is no movie with a box office of more than 40 million dollars related to J Films or J Corporation!” “That’s right, I think it’s possible that the J Corporation is just a small company. Otherwise, it’s impossible that I hadn’t heard of it.” Once again, Colton interrogated Jordan, “Jordan, since your company has so many big names signed to it, it must have been listed, right? What’s the stock code? Is it listed on the New York Stock Exchange?” Jordan went ahead with it and said, “It’s listed but not under J Films. Instead, it’s listed under a subsidiary of J Films. The names in the credits of the movies are also the names of my subsidiary companies. It’s not surprising that you haven’t heard of the J Corporation.” Colton and the rest were speechless. Jordan actually said that the companies that produced those blockbuster films were his subsidiary companies! This guy was really good at sucking up and bragging! Colton said in exasperation, “Jordan Steele, drop the act. I bet there’s no Ace Corporation at all! If you have what it takes, send me a photo of your company!” Jordan laughed and said, “There is indeed no company branch in the US because I registered this company overseas and it actually has no entity. There isn’t even an office and it’s just an active business license. The equity of these domestic film and television subsidiaries that have existing entities are all transferred to J Films. “So, although J Films only has a business license, I have the ownership and controlling rights of these local film companies.” Everyone was dumbfounded after hearing Jordan’s explanation. One of them, who was also a businessman, whispered to Colton, “Colton, what he mentioned is very likely to be true. Many big bosses do this to avoid incurring taxes.” Colton gritted his teeth. He naturally knew that this situation was common, but he just didn’t believe what Jordan said was true! “He’s fooling us. He said all of that just to deceive us!” Colton was filled with indignation. He could clearly tell that Jordan was lying and that he wasn’t the big boss of a film company at all. However, Jordan was way too cunning and no matter how Colton made things hard for him, he would be able to think of a solution to deal with it. He even caught everyone by surprise. Those female classmates believed it all regardless. Jordan was born to a family of billionaires after all. He had long gotten used to the rules, including the unspoken ones. If he couldn’t even fool an ordinary person, he could forget about the business trial! Soon, the classmates’ reunion ended on a pleasant note, with everyone being awestruck and sucking up to Jordan. Since Colton had long gotten the tab, Jordan didn’t have to. He didn’t bring any cash with him anyway. “Everyone, I’ll be heading off now, be careful on your way back.” Lauren held onto Jordan with one hand and waved goodbye to the others with her other hand. “Bye, Lauren, let’s get together and catch up when we have the time in the future.” “Goodbye, Mr. Steele and Lauren.” “Mr. Steele, you have to notify us when your company’s next film is out!” The ten of them were extremely polite and in awe towards Lauren and Jordan. Jordan asked Salvatore to drive over to pick them up. Salvatore opened the car door and got into the backseat of the car while holding Lauren’s hand. After getting into the car, Lauren patted Jordan with her left hand and said, “Honey, you said you were the boss of some company called J Films but that’s fake, right?” Jordan did not deny it and said with a smile, “Do you think I’m not even capable of running a film company?” Lauren said, “Of course I know you can, but you didn’t even sign any VAM agreement with Director Smith. Didn’t you get his contact information from your brother, Jesse on the day of the wedding? Jordan patted the back of Lauren’s hand and laughed. “Honey, it’s fake but also real. Don’t bother about this matter, I did it for a reason. You just need to know that although I might fool outsiders, I will never deceive you.” Lauren then suddenly thought of something and asked, “Is… it because of your family’s business trial?” Jordan did not hide it from Lauren and simply nodded. Lauren also held Jordan’s hand tightly before saying, “Hubby, I’m glad that you’re finally doing something decent. I’ll support you forever!” At this moment, the students at the entrance of the restaurant were in a hurry. Her female classmates had either taken a cab or gotten a valet driver. Only Colton and another male classmate were left standing stupidly at the door. Colton was filled with displeasure. He had finally gotten to where he was in his career and he wanted to show off in front of his classmates. He didn’t expect to have Jordan steal his limelight today. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 The more frustrating thing was that Colton was the one who paid the bill. “I didn’t spend money for him to act tough!” Also, Jordan was not really capable and was instead just a lying braggart! While Colton was seething in frustration, another male classmate felt that something was amiss when staring at the rear of the car that Jordan and Lauren were leaving in. “Colton, this Cadillac belonging to Lauren’s husband doesn’t seem right.” Colton asked, “How so?” ‘The male classmate said, “This car does not seem to belong to him. It used to belong to my friend but it was stolen at the airport.” “What?” Colton was astonished. Everyone in DC knew that a while ago, a large number of cars were stolen and robbed near the airport. The one that Salvatore was driving was from the airport. After the incident, Jordan ordered Salvatore to return all the cars and Salvatore even took the initiative to contact the owner to tell him that he could compensate him if he wanted. However, the owner said, “Boss, I don’t want the car anymore. You can have it and I hope to be friends with you!” The car owner was rich and had several cars. Upon seeing Salvatore, he immediately knew how powerful he was and he was also full of awe and admiration towards him. Hence, Salvatore continued driving that car with no qualms. Colton was enraged. “Damn it! I told you that Lauren’s husband was a swindler! Even his car was stolen from someone else!” Another male classmate sighed and said, “Hey, how is that possible? He managed to marry the goddess we’ve admired for more than a decade, with just a single word. If you must, blame us for being too honest.” Still, Colton was indignant. “I won’t let this swindler continue being smug!” After saying that, Colton turned around and returned to the Sophomore Restaurant. “Colton, why are you going back again?” “Tm going to have Maggie give me her boss’s number!”
