Chapter 116
Everyone was overjoyed that the show had a new sponsor and that they could keep filming.
But there was one person who was unhappy.
And that person was Clinton.
He was taken aback.
Gilmore actually shelled out 30 million dollars in sponsorship funds.
“This guy showed up on a shared bike. Isn’t he just some poor kid? How could he shell out 30 million dollars?” Clinton wondered.
“Mr. Reed, thank you!” Michael placed the contract on the table, then approached Gilmore and held his hand as he gratefully cried out.
When Michael said this, everyone at the TV station, including the celebrities of “Run, Friends, Run“,” looked at Gilmore with respect.
In their eyes, Gilmore was their benefactor.
If Gilmore had not signed the sponsorship deal, the program would have been canceled and they would have lost their jobs.
“Mr. Hamilton, we’re done eating. Why don’t we go to the TV station to work out the details of our collaboration?” Gilmore stated modestly to Michael.
Michael quickly regained his composure and nodded. “You’re right, Mr. Reed. Let’s go back to the TV station and talk about the specifics of our collaboration.”
After that, Michael took the contract and walked out with Gilmore and Lilian.
Michael left his briefcase on his seat, and the TV station staff took it along with them. The celebrities of “Run, Friends, Run” also left together.
Gilmore, Michael, and the others all left after a short while.
Clinton was the only one who remained in the private room.
He was enraged as he stared at the empty room, then he slammed his fist on the table.
He exerted too much force, causing the plates on the table to teeter and fall over.
A porcelain bowl made a cracking sound as it landed on Clinton’s right foot.

He was in so much pain that he jumped up and down. He was in a state of both pain and rage.
He never imagined that Gilmore would sponsor the “Run, Friends, Run” program.
This was utter humiliation.
And he had completely lost face.
“Gilmore Reed! Lilian Morales! Just you wait!” Clinton’s eyes shone with a glint of light.
He was like a ferocious and bloodthirsty beast.
When Gilmore and Michael walked out of the TV station after discussing the details of their collaboration, it was already past two o’clock in the afternoon.
“Where should we head to next?” Gilmore asked Lilian.
“Since you’re in Vista Verde, I’ll show you around the Stepol,” she said.
Gilmore nodded. “Alright. We might as well enjoy the scenery while we’re here.”
He then asked, “Are we taking the bicycle?”
“You’re now NexusTV’s biggest sponsor. How can I allow you to ride a bicycle?” Lilian responded.
With that, she took a key fob from her handbag and pressed it.
Following a beep, the headlights of a white BMW flashed in the parking lot.
Needless to say, this BMW belonged to Lilian.
Gilmore initially thought that this white BMW was her white BMW in Oakhaven.
However, upon closer inspection of the license plate, he discovered that the BMW was registered in Vista Verde, not Oakhaven.
This was clearly another BMW.
As a result, he smiled and teased Lilian, saying, “Not bad, you even got a new car. You seem to have made a lot of money.”
She replied with a smile, “How can I compare to a secretly rich man like you? You just spent 30 million dollars to sponsor the TV station.”
While they were talking, they arrived at the BMW and got in.
Lilian then drove away from the TV station.

She drove down the main street of the Stepol.

At the Stepol, there were skyscrapers and tourists. The ships sailed back and forth across the vast river, enhancing the beauty and vibrancy of this bustling international metropolis.
Lilian stopped her BMW at the roadside.
The car was facing a large river that was not far away. Seagulls swooped across the river’s surface, and ships sailed back and forth. The only thing visible was the bustling and beautiful scenery.
“Where did you get the 30 million dollars, Gilmore?” she asked while admiring the scenery.
“I won the lottery, he replied, echoing the response he had given Claire.
“Then I invested the money in stocks. Surprisingly, I was extremely fortunate and made more than 600 million dollars in a month.”
Lilian was taken aback.
She, like Claire, could not believe what he had just said.
From the look on his face, she knew that he was telling the truth.
Even though she believed him, she was still startled to find out that had earned over 600 million dollars in just over a month.
She was almost certain he had a knack for stock trading, which most people did not.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to make 600 million dollars in the stock market in just over a month.
When Lilian regained her composure, she turned to Gilmore and said, “You asked NexusTV to use Evermore Diner as the title sponsor for the “Run, Friends, Run” program. But you already had a few
branches.”
Lilian was present when Gilmore and Michael were discussing the details of their collaboration. She heard that Gilmore wanted Evermore Diner to be the title sponsor.
However, if Gilmore’s restaurant did not have a large–scale business, spending 30 million dollars on advertising would be a waste.
Gilmore then told Lilian that he was working with the Carter family to expedite the setup in Oakhaven. He also informed her about the dozens of new branches that would be opening soon..
Only then did Lilian learn that Evermore Diner was fully established in Oakhaven.
She felt as if it was all a dream.

Chapter 116
Just a year ago, Gilmore was poor and full of self–abasement. He did not even dare confess his feelings to her.
But now, the current Gilmore was confident. He had not only made a large profit in the stock market, but he had also begun to develop his business thoroughly.
The current Gilmore was no longer the Gilmore of the past.
Although Lilian did not dislike the old him, she clearly preferred the current outstanding him.
The two of them were sitting in the car by the river, admiring the scenery and chatting.
Looking at the sunset, Lilian said to Gilmore, “It’s time for us to go back, but we’re not going back to the Grand Majesty Hotel. That’s a hotel run by Clinton’s Horizon Group. You’ve both had a falling out, so I’ll invite you to stay in my villa in Horizon Group.”
Gilmore was astounded. “You bought a villa in Vista Verde?”
Lilian appeared to have made a lot of money as a celebrity. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to afford a villa in an expensive city like Vista Verde.
“I frequently come to Vista Verde to shoot programs, so I bought a villa here half a year ago, she explained to him. “Not only is this a convenient place for me to stay, but it can also be considered a real estate investment.”
Gilmore thought that her actions were completely normal.
This was due to the fact that many celebrities would purchase properties in Vista Verde, which could be for the convenience of living there for a short period of time while filming in the city, or it could be an investment. They would get a good return on their investment if real estate prices rose.
After that, Lilian took Gilmore to her villa in Vista Verde.
