Chapter 489: Chapter 489 News Comes
Jack Stewart seemed very pleased with himself, "Of course. When I say I will be your agent, I mean the best one."
Hannah asked him, "So, you’re not going to be a director anymore?"
She remembered that Jack was studying directing and his biggest dream was to become a globally renowned director, one who would win Oscars.
Jack turned around and picked up a lipstick, "Dreams can change at any time. Being your agent doesn’t stop me from being a director. I could use you in my films and save money."
Hannah blinked, seriously suggesting, "Then I want to play the role of a great beauty, preferably the kind that can overturn a nation."
Jack snorted, "You are always asking for the most."
As the two were chatting, the door to the makeup room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Oliver Taylor rushed in anxiously, dripping in sweat, "Miss Winter, there’s... there’s been an accident."
Jack reprimanded him sternly, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, quit spouting nonsense, Hannah is alright!"
It was the establishment night, such unlucky words should not be spoken.
However, Oliver shook his head, "Not Miss Winter, it’s... it’s Arnold."
Jack curiously asked, "Who?"
He did not know Arnold Simmons.
Hannah remained expressionless, just pulling Jack’s clothes indicating him to go out first.
Once the door was closed again, Oliver carefully began, "Miss Winter, the news says that the plane Mr. Simmons took back to the country today had an accident. His life... is uncertain."
As he spoke, the grown man couldn’t help but tear up, handing his phone to Hannah as tears streamed down his face.
Hannah glanced down at it.
She didn’t need to look closely, it was the headline.
Big bold characters.
#Leader of Simmons Group possibly in a plane crash, fate unknown#
It was financial news, not entertainment news, so the attention wasn’t that high.
On top of that, Arnold himself was a low-key person, so not many people knew about him.
Hannah, expressionless, threw the phone back into Oliver’s arms, "Is this real or fake?"
Oliver wiped his tears, "I called Arnold, his phone is switched off, it’s very... unlikely to be good news."
Hannah applied her eyebrows in the mirror, coldly retorting, "Stop cursing him. He’s not dead yet, but you are."
Oliver knew he had misspoken and quickly slapped himself.
He was just a rich second-generation who’s waiting to inherit. If it hadn’t been for Arnold and his spare cash for investment, his father wouldn’t even think about handing him the family property.
Some of Oliver’s tears were for Arnold’s accident, but most of them were for himself.
He owed his current status to Arnold. If something happened to Arnold, his days wouldn’t be much better.
All his father’s illegitimate children were waiting to take over his position.
"Why are you crying like a big baby?" Hannah adjusted her clothes in the mirror, "If you’re scared, you’d better hurry and leave."
Honestly, everyone is selfish. Oliver naturally should consider himself.
If the news were true, things were about to get heated in the Simmons Clan.
With Jimmy missing and now Arnold’s accident, the Simmons Group would definitely fall into the hands of those old stockholders.
After a long hesitation, Oliver finally made up his mind, "Miss Winter, Arnold has treated me well. I, Oliver Taylor, may not be the most righteous, but I won’t stoop so low as to kick a man while he’s down. Arnold asked me to take care of you before he left, and I’ll definitely do it."
