Chapter 584
"Is that how much we have to pay?" Aaron was in disbelief.
"What do you think? You would always donate your money or use it to have fun. Now, we're incapable of paying them at all." Joel sighed.
Aaron asked him to calculate how much they needed to pay. They would only be able to pay the compensation by selling the house they were currently living in.
"In that case, sell the house." Assets like houses and cars weren't that important to Aaron.
"You're kidding me!"
Joel ignored him and started searching for companies that were willing to work with them. However, those companies had seen the news as well, and they all thought Aaron was about to meet his downfall. They said they would only talk about a partnership after the mess was resolved.
When Joel asked IM Enterprise, they finally had a different response.
"The contract will last for three years, and our company can take care of all the negative news online for Aaron," Mark answered the call himself.
Joel agreed to the contract without asking Aaron about it at all. He did his research on IM Enterprise as well, and they had been doing great recently. Their platform was suitable for climbing up again.
Aaron didn't know Xavier was the man behind the company. Since Joel had already agreed to the contract, he could only helplessly accept it.
"Let's check out IM Enterprise today."
"Sure." Aaron nodded in annoyance.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Meanwhile, Mark told Xavier about the three-year contract at IM Enterprise. It meant that Aaron would be working under Xavier for three years.
Xavier looked aloof as he put away the document in his hands. "When will he be here?"
"This afternoon."
"You know what to do, right?" asked Xavier.
Mark nodded. "Yes."
He couldn't believe Aaron would get into a scandal with Yvette and thought Aaron had a death wish. The latter definitely would be tortured a lot while working with IM Enterprise.
Yvette was still in the hospital at that
moment. She called Aaron and asked if he needed her to clear his name. He comforted her, saying, it's alright. Every celebrity has their scandals. There'll be another news in just a few days, and this will be over soon."
Yvette wasn't a fool, and she knew it wouldn't be over that easily. After all, the scandal had affected him greatly. "Just let me know if you need me to clear things up." "Sure. Don't worry. I need to get back to work now, so I'll see you next time."
"Sure." With that, Yvette finally ended the call.
After she put her phone away, she went to Noah's ward and stood outside again. The bodyguard and nannies were packing up as they got ready for Noah's discharge that noon She waited outside and didn't dare to go for lunch at all. Then, Xavier arrived at noon to pick Noah up.
"Xavier." When she saw him walking past her, she explained, "Aaron and I were just talking about music last night. It wasn't what the news was saying at all."
He stopped walking for a brief moment. "You could've met at any moment, so why did you have to meet him at night?"
"We were only talking in a restaurant. It wasn't like we were at a hotel." She thought he was being ridiculous.
"Why? Were you planning to do that
as well?" His voice got deeper. Although Xavier had been
domineering in the past, he would at least make sense. However, he was being unreasonable at that moment.
Yvette was tired of explaining herself. "I want to see Noah."
He ignored her. After his man carried Noah out of the ward, he said to her, "Let's get in the car."
Since Noah was in his hands now, Yvette had no choice but to follow him. Xavier and Yvette were in a car together, while Noah was in another car with his nanny.
It was quieter than usual in the vehicle. Yvette's phone would ring occasionally because of Kiki's voice messages.
She wanted to hear what Kiki was saying and didn't turn the volume down. Then, she heard Kiki ask, "Tell me, Yvvy. Is Aaron as dashing as he appears on T?"
