Making 664
Upon hearing Lilian’s desire to know whether Sandra had any conscience, Gilmore couldn’t help
butugh.
“Lilian, don’t bother trying to find a conscience in Sandra. She was ready to throw you to the wolves
for money, and I’m not going to let her get away with it
Fuming with anger, Lilian dered, “Once I’m back in Eldoria, I cut ties with her and the
entertainmentpany”
Lilian really didn’t want to cooperate with such an agent.
She feared being pushed into a pit of fire again, bing a ything for some despicable men.
Gilmore responded, “Alright, I support your decision to break the contract. And don’t bother signing
with any other entertainmentpany in the future.”
Confused. Lilian asked, “If I don’t sign with an entertainmentpany, does that mean I won’t act
anymore?”
Gilmore smiled knowingly. “Of course, you’ll act. You’re destined to be an international superstar.
It’d be a great loss if you stopped acting.
“I don’t want you signing with otherpanies because I n to set up an exclusive entertainment
company for you. We’ll manage your entire portfolio and invest in your movies. I want tounch you
into international stardom.”
Lilian was taken aback, “You want to establish an entertainmentpany ju significant
investment.”
me? That sounds like it would require a
She knew that Gilmore’s business, the Evermore Group, was a well–known brand in Eldoria
Still, the idea of him investing a fortune to start an entertainmentpany solely for her was
surprising.
She didn’t want Gilmore to take such a risk and use the Evermore Group’s resources for her sake.
However, Gilmore appeared unfazed and reassured her, “Lilian, don’t worry about the money. As
long as we can produce great films and make you an international star, that’s all that matters,”
Touched by his words, Lilian nodded, “Okay, I’ll work hard and strive to be an international
star, living up to your expectations.
Gilmore gently patted her head, affirming. “That’s settled then.”
With that, they left the room
As they reached the living room, the sound of a doorbell rang.
Lilian couldn’t help but express her anxiety to Gilmore, “Could it be Jason’s men at the door?”
N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
She was well aware that Mr. Ross, a renowned financial tycoon of the Ross family, always had
bodyguards and martialists
around him.
If those at the door were Jason’s bodyguards, she feared that she and Gilmore might not be able to
leave this ce.
However, Gilmore remained calm and reassured her, “Don’t worry, Lilian. As long as I’m here,
nothing will happen.”
Afterforting her, he instructed Lilian to sit on the living room sofa while he went to answer the
door.
With a click, the door swung open.

Sandra and Neil were standing there with smiles on their faces, ready to congratte Jason for
spending a delightful evening with Lilian.
However, their smiles froze when they saw that it wasn’t Mr. Ross who opened the door, but
Gilmore
Neil’s face turned ghostly pale, his soul seemingly leaping out of his body.
He was utterly shocked to find Gilmore behind the door.
To him, Gilmore was a thousand times more terrifying than any demon.
Neil’s first instinct was to scream for help, but before he could utter a word, Gilmore swiftly silenced
him, sealing his throat and another critical acupoint, rendering Neil immobile and speechless.
Sandra, too, was startled to see Gilmore.
When she and Neil had left earlier, only Jason was in the room.
The sudden appearance of another man waspletely unexpected.
Unlike Neil, Sandra didn’t recognize Gilmore and felt no fear.
Although she knew Lilian had a boyfriend, she had never met Gilmore.
Thus, even with him standing right in front of her, she had no idea who he war
-It wasn’t until Gilmore immobilized Neil’s acupoints and saw the look of sheer terror on Neil’s face
that Sandra realized
something was amiss.
Why would Gilmore attack Neil, and why did Neil look so scared at the sight of him?
Could it be that Neil didn’t know this man?
Sensing something was off, Sandra’s first instinct was to run.
But could she really outpace Gilmore?
In a sh, Gilmore disabled her as well, sealing two of her acupoints.
He then dragged both the incapacitated Neil and Sandra into the room and shut the door.
Thrown onto the living room floor by Gilmore, Neil and Sandra winced in pain, unable to make a
sound.
Gilmore turned to Lilian, who was in the living room, and said, “Lilian, didn’t you just mention you
wanted to settle the score with Sandra? Well, she’s practically delivered herself to our doorstep.
Initially, Lilian had some doubts. Sandra, who had been like a sister to her, always by her side at
work, betraying her seemed unthinkable.
But now, seeing Sandra and Neil together in Jason’s presidential suite, Lilian believed it
She looked down at Sandra on the floor, her eyes filled with intense anger, “Sandra, why would you
betray me? Why did you do this?”
Sandra, caught red–handed and guilt–ridden, couldn’t bring herself to meet Lilian’s eyes.

She and Neil had returned as per their n with Jason to wait until Jason was done and then
transport the unconscious Lilian back to her hotel room, leaving no trace behind.

But she hadn’t expected to be overpowered by a stranger the moient she re–entered Jason’s room.

Moreover, Lilian seemed to be aware of everything that had happened, leading Sandra to realize
that their scheme had been
exposed.
Seeing Sandra unable to meet her gaze, Lilian spoke bitterly, “I weren’t for my boyfriend, Gilmore,
arriving just in time to save me, by now I would have been vited by that scoundrel Jason.
“Sandra, you betrayed me for money, I won’t let you off the hook. You must pay for what you’ve
done.”
Only then did Sandra realize that Gilmore was Lilian’s boyfriend
This revtion hit her like a ton of bricks, as if she had plummeted into hell.
Sandra tried to look up at Lilian, wanting to plead for mercy.
But when she caught Lilian’s gaze, so firm and icy, a chill ran down her spine.
Sandra knew Lilian well; she might appear soft and delicate on the outside, but inside, she was
incredibly resolute and decisive.
Whether in love or hatred, Lilian meant what she said.
And when she promised retribution, she meant every word.
This fealization filled Sandra with fear.
She wanted to apologize, to repent, to beg for forgiveness, but with her acup…..s sealed, she
couldn’t utter a word.
The helplessness and urgency she felt were beyond words.
After saying this, Lilian turned away from Sandra and looked at Gilmore. “Gilmore, I want her to get
what she deserves!”
Gilmore smiled slightly, “Don’t worry, Lilian. I’ll make sure they get exactly what’sing to them.”
Then, Gilmore walked over to the living room table and picked up a bottle of red wine, more than
half full.
Seeing Gilmore with the wine, Neil’s eyes widened in rm.
A sudden, ominous feeling clenched within him, recalling a humiliating incident at his manor in
Vista Verde, Eldoria, where he had been raped by his eight Grandmasters.
Now, as Gilmore picked up the wine that Jason had drugged, Neil couldn’t help but tremble at the
thought of what might happen next.
Chilled to the bone and trembling uncontrobly, Neil watched as Gilmore, smiling, approached him
with the half–full bottle of wine. The smile on Gilmore’s face made Neil’s skin crawl.
