Chapter 243: Chapter 246 RefusalAmong the people in the room, the woman’s face was somewhat awkward, but the three men were excited. Watching such a show would definitely be thrilling, especially with a beautiful host like Alice Brown, which could give men a sense of achievement, even if they were not involved, just watching would be the same.

Since Christopher Taylor had been so straightforward, even if she continued to smile, it was useless. "Do you really not want to be a host anymore?" Christopher Taylor didn’t move, but looked at Alice Brown with a gloomy expression. Alice Brown bit her lip and took a deep breath before saying, "Master Johnson, I admit, I’ve always wanted to climb higher. I’ve dreamed of becoming a more popular host, and that has always been a dream of mine..." Hearing this, Christopher Taylor smiled. As long as Alice Brown had this mindset, he was confident he could manipulate her. Although Christopher Taylor’s position in YODC City was not high—merely a Deputy County Chief—he came here with substantial backing. His family had a strong background, containing several significant officials across provinces and owning a major conglomerate with a famous entertainment company under its umbrella. With this entertainment company, the artists who wanted to rise in rank were more than willing to jump into his bed. Shaking her head, Alice Brown revealed a radiant smile and continued, "If I can achieve my dream through my own efforts, no matter how difficult, I have no regrets. But if I have to sell my dignity and self-respect to achieve my dream, then I would rather not dream that dream." James Brown was quite shocked to hear Alice Brown speak such admirable words outside the room. The impression he and Laura got from their previous encounters with her was that she was someone willing to sell her body for advancement. How could she speak such inspiring words now? At this moment, inside the room, Christopher Taylor’s face became extremely unpleasant. He stabbed his cigarette into the wine glass and said in a deep voice, "So, you mean to say that even if you don’t continue as a host, you plan to leave today?" Alice Brown firmly replied, "Exactly! I’m sorry, Master Johnson, everyone makes mistakes in life, but I don’t want to continue making them. I need to take responsibility for myself." "Very well!" Christopher Taylor clapped his hands forcefully and then gave Alice Brown a thumbs up, saying, "I must say, I really admire you. I’ve seen too many stars who would do anything to climb the ladder, and in front of me, they’re no different from prostitutes. But you, you’re really different. I’ve become even more interested in you. How about this—I’ll marry you." Everyone in the hall was stunned by these words. What kind of person was Christopher Taylor? There were many women who would dream of marrying into the Taylor Family, and as one of the key younger members, potentially, he could take over the family in the future. He was the number one choice for many women. Although Christopher Taylor had played with many women over the years, he had never seen anyone he wanted to marry. It was unexpected that he wanted to marry Alice Brown. If this was true, then Alice Brown would truly rise to the top and become a phoenix. "What I say counts. Don’t think this is just a ploy to get you into bed. I, Christopher Taylor, like women, but my wife must be faithful and presentable. You meet all my criteria. If you agree, I could take you home tomorrow. Let my parents and my family see you. They’ve been trying to find a suitable marriage partner for me, and I’m sure they’d be very pleased if I brought you." Christopher Taylor spoke with ease, not believing that Alice Brown could reject such a big temptation. Alice Brown was deeply shaken by Christopher Taylor’s words. To be the daughter-in-law of the Taylor Family meant living in their home, and her identity and status would completely change. However, Alice Brown quickly shook her head and said, "Sorry! I already have a boyfriend." "Alice, what nonsense are you talking about? You don’t have a boyfriend." A man immediately exclaimed anxiously. He worked at the television station and was the one who arranged for Alice Brown to accompany Christopher Taylor for dinner today, otherwise Alice Brown rarely attended such events recently. Alice Brown uttered these words and instantly felt lighter, slightly smiling as she said, "I really do have a boyfriend now, and he treats me very well. I have no reason to betray him." "You’re being foolish, having a boyfriend is not the same as being married. Right now, Master Johnson is proposing to marry you." Alice Brown looked at Christopher Taylor, composedly saying, "Thank you for your high regard, Master Johnson, but there are many women far more excellent than Alice who could be your wife. I’m well aware of my own standing; I’m truly not suited to be a wife in the Brownie Family." Christopher Taylor laughed, starting with a soft chuckle, then burst into loud, unrestrained laughter, leaning back and forth as he roared. Everyone exchanged glances, uncertain of what Christopher Taylor would do next, but it was clear that Alice Brown’s words had deeply offended him. If Christopher Taylor truly got angry, nobody could stop him. "Don’t you regret what you just said?" Christopher Taylor’s laughter suddenly stopped, and he looked coldly at Alice Brown. "I don’t regret it. I’m already regretful about my past actions, but from now on I will be responsible for my boyfriend. I want to live with dignity, even without status or money." Alice Brown slowly closed her eyes, envisioning James Brown’s face so clearly in her mind. It seemed like he was looking at her with admiration, filling her with courage. "Master Johnson, excuse me, but I must go meet my boyfriend now," Alice Brown opened her eyes, gave Christopher Taylor a slight smile, and then turned to leave. "Smash!" A jarring sound of shattering glass erupted as Christopher Taylor’s face turned livid, throwing a wine bottle and shouting at Alice Brown, "There isn’t a woman I’ve fancied who could escape me. I want to see how you plan to leave here today." Alice Brown didn’t turn back, only pausing her steps when Christopher Taylor finished speaking, then continued toward the door. "Stop right there, you wench!" Christopher Taylor angrily yelled, Alice Brown was completely disregarding him. This time, Alice Brown didn’t even pause; she kept walking forward. Christopher Taylor was nearly driven mad, took a quick stride, rushed over, and grabbed Alice Brown’s arm. Alice Brown turned slightly panicked, struggling as she exclaimed, "Master Johnson, remember you are the Deputy County Chief now; this won’t do you any good." "You know I’m the Deputy County Chief, so let me tell you today, there’s nothing that Christopher Taylor wants to do that can’t be done. You’re no exception; whether you agree or not, you’ll have to agree." "If you keep this up, I’ll scream." "Go ahead and scream. I’d like to see who dares to meddle in my business." Christopher Taylor laughed wildly, his arrogance unrestrained.
