"Ah. I'm just curious about my brother's company, that's all." Rylee replied shamelessly even though
she was caught by Assistant Jacob.
"Okay, I'm leaving." Assistant Jacob declared and immediately left the office and continued to make his
way toward the conference room.
Jarek had a frown on his face when Assistant Jacob entered the conference room. "You're late," Jarek
stated in a cold voice.
"I'm sorry, president. I met Young Miss Rylee on the way. I had to settle her in the guest office before
returning here." He replied, which made Jarek nod.
Assistant Jacob quickly handed the documents he had just picked from the secretary's table to Jarek
and sat on his seat.
"Let the meeting begin," Jarek said and soon everything turned silent and Assistant Jacob stood up.
---
"Brother. Brother. Brother." Rylee paced the room anxiously. "Brother, if I missed this opportunity, I'll be
so angry with you." Rylee pouted and jumped on the chair.
Even though she knew that there was no way she could miss anything with Jarek's authority, Rylee
couldn't help being impatient.
"Ugh," she smacked her forehead. "This is over 45 minutes. I tried not to break or crash into anything,
yet brother isn't back, this is driving me crazy!" Rylee yelled in anger and almost swept the paper away
on the table and the door opened right at that minute.
"Oh. Oh. I'm caught again." Rylee stood up with an awkward smile. When is it that whenever her hand
itches to do something she'd be caught?
Despite her brooding thought, Rylee had a smile on her face as she arranged the paper step she was
about to fling away, immediately. "It's really not what you think." She said while looking at him with
innocent wide eyes which made Jarek scoff.
"Hey, brother." Rylee immediately left the table and ran toward him. "Brother." She tugged his cuff
happily.
"Sit," Jarek replied calmly, and he also sat down in a catchy and elegant manner. Jarek's top two
buttons were unbuttoned, which gave one the chance to peek into the strong and beautiful collarbone.
"Okay, brother," Rylee replied immediately and sat as he instructed.
Since Rylee could come to his office and feign a demure act, Jarek knew his step-sister could only be
in J Empire for something, she needed his help in concern for her acting career.
Jarek never paid attention to the Hart family ever since he left, but when it comes to Rylee, he was
always attentive.
"What do you want me to do?" Jarek asked, cutting to the chase which made Rylee pout her lips.
"Brother, what do you mean?" She tried to act innocent. "Can't I just greet my brother? It's been a long
time…"
"Ok." Jarek interrupted and stood up, pretending to believe in her word. "Greeting it is then. Assistant
Jacob will escort you when…"
"Wait, brother!" Rylee anxiously grabbed Jarek's hand when she saw that he was about to leave her in
the guest office.
"What is it, little Rylee?" Jarek arched his brows thinking she'd be angered by the little name, but Rylee
didn't; she even brushed the name off which shows that she came for something serious.
"Sit. Sit. Sit." Rylee muttered to him. Jarek nodded and immediately sat down.
"Speak."
Rylee had a fawning smile on her face, "I heard White Tigress is in the country and the J media wants
to be in charge of her movies." Rylee began, which made Jarek nod.
"Actually, I want to act in White Tigress movie. I asked mother and father to let me act, but they refused
and wanted me to get involved in the family business which I'm not interested in. So it's only you who This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
can make my dream come true, brother." Rylee immediately sat beside Jarek and grabbed his hand
with a fawning smile.
"Hm." Jarek nodded. "What do I do?"
Rylee immediately beamed happily. "Help me land a role in White Tigress movie, brother you have the
connection to," Rylee said.
"I can find a way to let you in for you the audition, but your act depends on if you're chosen," Jarek
said, which made her smile and jump happily while clenching her fist. "Yes."
"Let me see your acting level," Jarek said, which made Rylee nod immediately.
"Act chapter 5, the villain role with the female lead," Jarek said and leaned back on the chair with a
powerful aura seeping out of him.
Rylee immediately got into the act, she understood that her brother would never use his connection if
he thought she wasn't capable of the act. And she liked it that way.
Jarek clapped twice which made Rylee smile immediately.
"You're good." Jarek praised, which made her beam happily. "But you still need to improve if you want
to be chosen. Top actresses will be battling for the same role, and you're just a newbie." Jarek warned.
"Brother, don't worry." She said, patting her chest smugly, which made him nod. "I'm up for being
chosen or not. I have strong willpower." Rylee declared, which made Jarek nod.
"Brother, quickly sign me into your media company. I want to get signed but with a high fee if I breach
the contract so mom and dad wouldn't have any option than to let me act." She said while batting her
eyes at him.
Seeing Jarek's solemn expression, Rylee grabbed his hand, "Please brother. Only you can help me."
"Assistant Jacob will help you with that." Jarek finally said, which made her jump happily.
"President Jarek, you're the best," Rylee said and watched him walk out. She also picked up her bag
and waved, then left J Empire with a smiling expression.
