Chapter 220

Out of the blue, Kevan, who was usually distant, struck up a casual conversation with Lucas. “Not heading back to Bartham for New Year’s?”

Lucas seemed taken aback by Kevan’s sudden “enthusiasm, and his smile turned stiff as his voice trembled a little. “No, I’m busy with work here. I don’t have time to go back.”

Kevan nodded in response and asked, “I heard you helped the two anchors from StreamWave Studios establish a connection and secure the endorsement deal with Yenti Clan?”

Lucas‘ face slightly reddened upon hearing that. “Yeah, well, it just so happened that Yenti Clan was looking for spokespersons, and I knew those two anchors, so I made a recommendation. I didn’t expect it to work out.”

Clan.

Of course, Kevan wouldn’t expose Lucas‘ lie right then and there. After all, the company would receive a 40% commission on the endorsement fees earned by the two anchors. In other words, Lucas was indirectly giving him money. So, naturally, he was pleased about that.
