Chapter 712: Chapter 691: Selling face for fees!

The idea of collaboration is ridiculous. He wants to be the president of Orchid Kingdom and all he wants is Ivy Aretha to be safe. Their goals are incompatible.

Such collaboration would only make him a puppet!

"Does Mr. Gordon doubt my abilities?"

Sammy Lowe’s gaze lightly swept across Bella Gordon, then landed on Michael Gordon, before letting out a sigh, "It seems to Mr. Gordon, his daughter’s words are more reliable!"

Of course, Sammy certainly didn’t believe that Michael Gordon would listen to his daughter’s advice against collaborating with him. It’s clearly a lack of trust in him. To put it accurately, Alya Larson’s position in his heart is just so-so.

"Of course it is!"

Michael Gordon didn’t deny it, "I don’t distrust you, but the woman beside you!"

Michael admitted, he deliberately said these because after being kicked out of Allure International by Ivy, Alya became Sammy’s girlfriend – it was apparent, she wanted to use Sammy’s power to help her brother take over Allure International. When he heard Michael say Alya was Risa Scott’s illegitimate child, he started having doubts. Furthermore, his memory was completely restored and everything that he thought of is now crystal clear.

He found out about Alya being Risa Scott’s illegitimate daughter seven years ago. However, before he could do anything, he was struck with memory loss by a wine bottle. Now isn’t the time to reveal it because his main objective is to bring Ivy Aretha back home safely first. He does not want to focus on Allure International.

He’s afraid that if he pressures her too much, she will act out against the unsuspecting elder in their house. All he could do now is to put up a tough front. The bigger moves have to wait until Ivy gets home.

"What? You’re afraid of getting caught by my cousin after collaborating with Alya?"

Sammy Lowe faintly smiled, his profound gaze didn’t reveal any emotion but it was enough for Michael Gordon to sense a cold chill. His difference from Spencer Lowe was that one hid his harshness under a veil of grace while the other showed it outright. Comparatively, Spencer’s method is crude and simple, while the current man was more meticulous.

And it made him all the scarier!

"True, Ivy is very possessive. If she learns that I am collaborating with her former rival, I might lose the rights to the children carrying my surname within her belly!"

Michael Gordon glanced at the man in front of him with a strange smile. Since he provided such a peculiar excuse, he might as well exploit it, "Who can bear children will be the boss, and since I can’t, I’ve to behave!"

Sammy Lowe: "..."

How did this conversation turn into a discussion about bearing a child?

He had heard about the tricky nature of Michael Gordon. A few words from him could interrupt your train of thought. And now, he found that it was true. He provided an excuse and Michael held on to it staunchly.

"If my cousin’s husband insists on this, I will not push further. However..."

Sammy is a clever person. He was already rejected so firmly by Michael Gordon that there’s no chance of persisting with him. After all, this was Andras City, his territory, where just the presence of Michael Gordon was enough to crush him. On top of that, there was also Jaysen Smith standing by his side, representing the entire Smith family. He’s not that foolish to go against them. However, he cannot let the preparations he made go to waste.

"I still need to save my cousin, and what Spencer wants, I believe my smart cousin’s husband had already thought about. Now that we have disagreed on a collaboration, let’s do as my cousin’s husband suggested, act on our own. If I find my cousin first, out of respect to me, her cousin..."

"Deal, but there’s no need to threaten me!"

Michael Gordon cut him off before he completed his sentence, "You should know what kind of person I am. I don’t care about your country’s problems and who becomes the President. But if you indeed help with this matter, The expenses of your presidential campaign – I will personally cover them!"

"Cover them?"

Even the always calm Sammy Lowe was taken aback on hearing these words, "Do you know how much a presidential campaign costs?"

He has the audacity to take on such a responsibility?

The Orchid Kingdom’s treasury has long been exhausted. To win public support and to become the President, one needs sufficient funds to run the country. This is a prerequisite for becoming a President. And that’s exactly why he and Spencer turned their eyes to the mythical treasure in Orchid Kingdom, to seek Ivy Aretha’s help.

If Michael Gordon could generate such a huge amount, why would he even think about hurting Ivy and making an enemy out of Michael Gordon? They could have been allies.

"I don’t care how much a presidential campaign costs, however much it is - I, Michael Gordon, can afford it!"

Money can be earned. As long as Ivy returns safely, what does money matter at all? "With a face like mine on media, that alone could generate money, are you not worried about my ability to provide the campaign funds?"

After pausing for a moment, Michael Gordon looked at Jaysen Smith and signaled him to see. "If one face isn’t enough, add Mr. Smith’s face. Two handsome faces together should be able to generate a considerable amount of money!"

Madeline: "..."

She genuinely felt that when Ivy returns, there’s a need to complain about her husband, who plans to sell his face despite having a large sum of money stacked up back home. Not only is he planning to sell his own face, but he’s also dragging her husband into it!

"Michael Gordon, if you want to sell a face, sell yours, don’t involve my husband!"

"Madeline, why are you so worked up? With Uncle Smith’s face, if sold alone, it could generate some money, but placed in front of my father, it wouldn’t be worth much!"

The little girl continued to chat while crawling down from the hospital bed. Seeing her doing such a dangerous task, Roy Thompson, who just stepped in, ran over and held her before she could get completely off the bed. She proceeded, "Speaking of selling faces, you’re all old, and not worth much! Thus, we youngsters should handle this!"

Michael Gordon: "..."

He was just moved by the first part of his beloved daughter’s sentence. Upon hearing the latter part of the statement, he felt despair. He was despised by his own sweetheart of a daughter for being old!

"Hahah!"

Madeline couldn’t help laughing, "Darling, are you planning to sell your face along with your little husband’s? What if some young lady falls for your little husband’s face and tries to snatch him away from you?"

The conversation appeared to have unintentionally shifted to the Atlantic Ocean. It was initially about the issue of money, how come it suddenly became about their faces?

"I won’t fall for any other girls..."

Roy Thompson quietly muttered something which only he could hear, completely unexpected to everyone else. Bella immediately responded to it.

"Madeline, you aren’t confident about your darling. If we both sell our faces, don’t you think more young boys will fall for my face?"
