Chapter 545


    Aftermenting on how Michael had bought himself a wife with 80,000, their attention finally turned


    toward Sophia. Shockingly, ‘Eddie Fletcher’ turned out to be Sophia Edwards, the campus belle of


    Bayside University famous for joining esports tournaments!


    “When the two of them participated in the Esports World Championship together, I knew there was


    something up between them! Turns out my intuition was right! Have a happy marriage! Sophia is a strong


    and kind girl! I feel reassured about leaving our idol in her hands!”


    “The daughter of the Edwards Family, the smart and beautiful campus belle of Bayside University, and a


    well-known esports yer… I have to admit; she matches up to my idol.”


    “So far, nobody has sessfully recreated the song ‘π’ that Sophia and our idol coborated on


    together! That’s a top student at Bayside University for you! I heard that she holds so many certificates


    that they are weighed by the pounds!”


    Taylor had always kept a low profile—he did not maintain a public persona, create scandals, or beg for


    favors. Rather, he simply concentrated on filming and focused on making quality shows. Therefore, he


    was not as popr as the movies he acted in, and his fans were rtively more rational. Besides, too


    many scandals involving him had been born out of nothing in the past. So, his fans were no longer


    surprised by them, especially in regard to something like buying himself a wife with 80,000…


    On the other side, Joe held a press conference to openly recognize Sophia as part of his family.


    Furthermore, he criticized the unscrupulous media and rified that it wasn’t a marriage of convenience


    but a marriage of love. He mentioned that Sophia was 18 when they registered their marriage, so the


    rumors about the human trafficking of minors were nonsense. Sophia was his long-lost biological


    daughter and the precious second daughter of the Edwards Family, so the 80,000 was just a symbolic


    dowry from Taylor during their marriage.


    Meanwhile, Michael kept quiet throughout all this. He said nothing, held no press conferences, made no


    rifications, and couldn’t even be bothered to post anything on Twitter. In contrast, Sophia posted on


    Twitter every day through ‘Eddie Fletcher’, describing the lovey-dovey married life of a young fangirl and


    a handsome man who was past his prime.


    As for Harry, he made no response either. Besides, his fans were aware of the truth—Little Kitten was his


    girlfriend. However, she was a big-time figure and the longest-standing fan among his fan groups.


    Hence, his fans didn’t see anything wrong with the two of them being together.


    All in all, Richard spent arge sum of money to boost the poprity of ‘Doctor Invincible’ that had been


    slowly declining in ticket sales after its initial release more than half a month ago. However, his efforts did


    nothing for ‘Legend of Fan Lihua’. Not only was ‘Legend of Fan Lihua’ unable to surpass ‘Doctor


    Invincible’, but it also failed to win against domestic cartoons that were releasedter. Although the


    movie was supported by two popr A-listed celebrities, online celebrities will always be online


    celebrities. They had millions of followers on Twitter, and their posts were retweeted thousands of times.


    However, their true selves were revealed once they appeared on the big screen—their acting skills and


    charisma were not up to par. Thus, the box office earnings kept going down. 10 days after its release, the


    ticket sales had dropped to 10 million. No matter how popr an intellectual property film like ‘Legend of


    Fan Lihua’ might be, it was doomed to fail!


    Richard stared at the box office ratings as well as ‘Legend of Fan Lihua’ that couldn’t increase in ranking


    no matter what he did. Without warning, he suddenly swept everything on his office desk to the ground.


    As a result, the ss cups and documents scattered across the floor. His phone was about to explode


    from all the calls it was receiving. The calls were from various business partners. However, he didn’t


    want to nor dared to answer those calls, knowing that none of them were calling with good intentions.


    After messing up so many things, the Harper Family was extremely disappointed in him. If I weren’t the


    only son, I would have lost my position a long time ago. No! There must be a way to salvage this!


    Hugging his head in his hands as he leaned against the chair, his brain kept running into a brick wall.


    Then, a lightbulb went off in his head as he thought of a bold and extreme method, and his blood-shot


    eyes shone with determination…


    Meanwhile, X couldn’t believe that Joe could make peace with Taylor and Sophia so easily. After all,


    he used to say that he wanted to rip them apart all the time. Besides, the rtionship between Sophia


    and Joe had already reached the point where it was unsalvageable. How could Sophia ept Joe so


    quickly? She must have another motive for doing so!


    Thus, X made herself presentable and hurried over to the Edwards residence. The father and


    daughter pair of the Edwards Family had dressed up and were preparing to leave the house. Seeing


    that, X walked up to them with a sweet smile, forgetting that she had been cussing out Faye not too


    long ago. Then, she asked, “Where are you nning to go, Uncle Joe?”


    Joe straightened out his suit gaily with a preening expression on his fat face. “Where else could I be


    going? Of course, I’m going to meet my son-inw, Taylor!”


    He had received an invitation from Taylor out of the blue today, inviting him to Vi No. 8 for dinner.


    Hence, he felt that his life was about to change for the better soon!


    Upon hearing those words, X cursed at him in her heart, When the Edwards Family was in trouble, the


    Huff Family contributed a lot of money to help them out of their rut. But, now that the Huffs were in


    trouble, the Edwards are feigning ignorance instead! These ungrateful ingrates! You want to go and meet


    with Sophia, don’t you? You want to acknowledge your rtionship with Taylor, don’t you? In your


    dreams! This damn fatty had harmed Sophia on so many asions! Does he have selective memory


    loss?! I need to pit them against each other. The more they tear each other apart, the better! Besides,


    the Edwards are scoundrels. They won’t be able to let things end just like that! Therefore, she hurriedly


    said in a hopeful manner, “Are you going to meet up with Mr. Murray? Can I tag along too? I really want


    to meet him too!”


    Faye yed with her hair for a bit as she watched X’s impatient behavior. Then, she contemptuously


    said, “You want to tag along? You should just forget it. It’s not like we don’t know about the resentment


    you hold against Sophia. I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for you toe along.”


    X seemed taken aback for a moment. After a moment, she forced a smile on her face. “What do you


    mean by ‘inappropriate’? Faye, it can’t be that you’re still harboring a grudge over what I said yesterday,


    right? It was my mistake. I was in a bad mood yesterday so I misspoke.” Gently, she continued, “As you


    know, our movie involves both of us. I was feeling very anxious because it just won’t be a hit no


    matter what. Therefore, Ished out without thinking. Faye, you’re going there to ask your brother-inw


    to share some resources with you anyway. Why don’t we do things this way instead? Bring me along,


    and we’ll have one more person’s strength to add to our numbers…”


    Bursting inughter, Faye sized X up before sneering coldly, “You? Your little tricks might be able to


    fool Richard, but they won’t fool me!”


    After saying that, the father and daughter pair headed to The Imperial next door. X trailed after them,


    stubbornly following along. I won’t give up until I instigate a fight between them today!

    Upon arriving at the gates of The Imperial, X saw that Sophia was waiting by the door to wee


    them herself. She even opened the door for them, smiling as she said, “Dad, Faye, you’re here! Please,


    come inside!”


    Thus, Joe and Faye felt extremely honored and they proudly entered. However, X was naturally


    locked outside mercilessly when it came to her turn. The security guard coldly blocked her way when she


    tried to sneak inside. “I’m sorry, but you can’t enter the premises of The Imperial without an invitation.”


    Watching the three people who had entered before her and were happily chatting away, X felt


    extremely anxious. A sudden impulse came over her and she shouted after them, “Sophia, be careful! I


    heard that Joe is targeting your assets and your property! If you bring him inside, he might end up


    devouring you and your husband alive! They’ve had it all nned out! They n to murder your son,


    then take over your house and your money! You have to be careful!”
