Nevertheless, she still looked through them.
She had heard that Jon Hardy had once been just a soldier. After the end of World War II, he was discharged and, in just three or four years, managed to earn billions of dollars. Margaret was curious about how he had made so much money.
According to the records:
Hardy started with a security company, then ventured into the film industry. His company produced films such as The Wild Bunch, Léon: The Professional, Ghost, Once a Thief, and Singin' in the Rain—all classic films.
These films had already been released in the UK, and Margaret had watched all of them in the royal palace theater. They were among her favorite movies, and she was surprised to learn they were all produced by that bastard's company.
After that, Hardy began venturing into other industries: Las Vegas casinos, a television manufacturing company, and a Barbie doll toy factory.
At this, Margaret's eyes widened.
She glanced at the shelves on the wall, neatly displaying over a dozen Barbie dolls, along with countless Barbie accessories.
Barbie dolls had already been sold in the UK, but they were quite expensive, so most people couldn't afford them. As a princess, however, Margaret had a particular fondness for Barbie dolls and adored them.
"Barbie dolls were designed by that Jon Hardy? A grown man designing dolls so beloved by little girls—isn't that perverted?"
Princess Margaret's words were sharp. She hated Hardy, so she said whatever she could to feel better.
But now, should she still like Barbie dolls?
Princess Margaret found herself in a dilemma.
She continued reading.
Playboy magazine.
Princess Margaret saw another familiar na. It turned out that Playboy magazine was also created by that man. Humph, that magazine perfectly suited his character—he was a lecherous playboy, no wonder he would create such a filthy publication.
The docunt went on:
Hardy had acquired ABC Television, purchased Wells Fargo Bank, founded The Global Tis, supported Johnson's presidential campaign, and bought land in Australia, among other things.
Of course, Due to ti constraints, so of Hardy's ongoing ventures were not listed, but this was more than enough to astonish Princess Margaret.
Three or four years, and he had built such a vast empire, worth billions. It was the first ti she had heard of sothing like this.
But she would never admit that Hardy was impressive.
He was just a scoundrel.
She flipped to the next page.
The last page introduced the won involved with Hardy, and Margaret's interest was piqued by the gossip.
Ava Gardner, currently the most popular singer and actress in Hollywood, had been promoted to stardom by Hardy. It was almost certain that she was Hardy's woman.
Margaret knew about Ava Gardner. Her song Scarborough Fair was not only popular in Arica but also very popular in Europe, especially in the UK, as Scarborough Fair was originally a British folk song.
Princess Margaret even had a signed record of Ava Gardner's.
She never expected Ava to be Hardy's woman. What a disgrace! A woman like Ava should leave a scoundrel like Hardy as soon as possible.
Irina, was a star host on ABC Television and also the vice president of the network. It was rumored that she was Hardy's woman too.
"Beast! He even preyed on a TV host," Margaret cursed.
Marilyn Monroe, a newcor from the Idol competition and hailed as Arica's sweetheart and a sexy singer, was rumored to be Jon Hardy's woman.
"Pervert! Trash!"
The last na on the list was Elizabeth Taylor. When Princess Margaret saw Taylor's na, she was stunned.
"Taylor?"
Princess Margaret knew Elizabeth Taylor. They had played together as children and even fought over toys.
Speaking of which,
There was so gossip surrounding Taylor's family background.
Taylor's mother, Sara, had once been an actress in Hollywood, though not particularly famous. She was of English-Irish descent. Taylor's father, on the other hand, was a playboy of German descent.
At that ti, a man nad Victor Cazalet appeared. He was a British aristocrat and a colonel with close ties to the British royal family.
Victor Cazalet ca to Arica for surgery and moved into the Taylor household so they could help care for him. He had originally been a childhood friend of Taylor's father and got to know the Taylor family during his stay.
Elizabeth Taylor was just a baby at the ti, and Victor adored her, treating her as his goddaughter, even more than if she were his own child. The poor man married three tis but couldn't have a child of his own; as such, he truly treated little Elizabeth as a daughter and invited the Taylor family to settle in London with him.
The Taylor family later lived in London for a long ti. Elizabeth attended an exclusive school where she studied dance, and it was there that she beca playmates with Margaret, who was about a year older.
During the war, the Taylor family returned to Arica. At that point, Taylor's father began running an art gallery, while her mother, Sara, hoped to groom Taylor into a star.
Throughout the war, Victor Cazalet represented the British royal family, giving speeches in Arica to garner support. During this ti, he even visited Los Angeles to see Taylor.
Tragically, on that trip, Victor Cazalet's plane crashed while returning to England, killing him and leaving the Taylor family without their biggest supporter in London.
"Taylor is only 16, and that scoundrel Jon Hardy dared to prey on an underage girl? What a beast!"
But then she suddenly rembered sothing.
The na of the Barbie princess was supposedly nad after Hardy's girlfriends—Ava Princess, Irina Princess, Taylor Princess, and Elena Princess, though she didn't know who that Elena Princess was.
The final piece of information ntioned:
Elizabeth Taylor was currently filming a movie in France, with HD Film Company as the investor.
Margaret's eyes lit up.
She could invite Elizabeth Taylor to England for a visit and then call Jon Hardy to tell him that Elizabeth Taylor had been kidnapped in England. Watching his panic would be quite amusing.
