Chapter 825


    Scarlett Mitchell was the daughter of Cooper Mitchell. Faye had seen her before at King’s product


    launching ceremony, which Sandra had carefully nned but was ruined. Sandra had even spent a great


    deal of money to invite numerous celebrities to support the event, and Faye was one of the guests.


    These days, not only was Faye an A-list celebrity who was in a few blockbuster film series and popr


    reality shows, but she was also a socialite in Bayside City given her identity as the youngdy of the


    Edwards. Furthermore, she was close to Sandra, so she had delightfully attended the event when


    Sandra invited her.


    However, she had left early on that day due to the chaotic scene, hence she did not get to meet Sophia.


    Because of her identity as one of Sandra’s socialite intimate friends and the close rtionship between


    the Edwards and the Mitchells, Faye had been paying close attention to the happenings of the Mitchells.


    In addition, she deemed herself as the future family head of the Edwards and had been seeking out


    potential candidates from the Mitchell Family for marriage. As such, she was aware of the internal


    situation of the Mitchells.


    Never had she thought that she would bump into Scarlett and Cooper today, whom Sandra detested.


    ording to Sandra, Cooper and Scarlett were merely swindlers who came back to fleece them out of


    the inheritance and beguiled some of the witless members in the Mitchell Family. They were not even


    worth mentioning, and it would be a piece of cake for the Mitchells to destroy Cooper. However, they left


    him alone to lure him into exposing the location of Old Master Mitchell’s hidden inheritance.


    ncing at the child being carried by Scarlett, Faye smirked.


    As far as she knew, only poor families would send their children into showbiz at such a young age, and


    the rich would never allow their toddlers to appear on the big screen.


    “What a surprise! You already have a child!”


    Sandra would be thrilled if she knew about this. Faye had heard through the grapevine that Scarlett was


    only twenty years old, yet this child seemed to be at least a couple years old. Cooper also didn’t seem to


    have a son-inw, so it would be interesting to find out how Scarlett had this daughter.


    Frowning, Sophia held Carmen in her arms and retorted impatiently, “This is my child, and it’s none of


    your business. I don’t even know you!”


    Faye ran her fingers through her blonde, curly hair and remarked, “It’s normal that you don’t know me


    since you just returned to the country. You’ll know who I am after some time.”


    She continued, “Your daughter has decent qualities, and she’s pretty smart. I intend to recruit her for my


    company and groom her into a child star. You’ve got a bargain!”


    Faye spoke in an arrogant tone as if she was giving alms to them.


    Of course, Sophia wasn’t going to agree to that. Carmen was just a child and she had allowed her to


    participate in this film merely for fun. It was a matter to be discussed in the future once Carmen was old


    enough, and that was if she still had the intention to be a celebrity. Besides, their family had sufficient


    money and resources to support Carmen and she did not have to go around begging people to make a


    debut. It was known that trainees of entertainmentpanies had a hard life and were ill-treated.


    “No, thanks. My child came here just for fun, and we have no intention to make a debut.”


    Holding Carmen in his hands, Cooper red at Faye and decided to not give a damn about her.


    She assumed herself as the conqueror of everything else upon aplishing some achievements in her


    industry. How pathetic she was!


    The Mitchells were determined to leave the ce and even the director failed to persuade them to stay.


    Enraged at being ignored, Faye ordered her assistants to block Cooper and Sophia’s way.


    “Hey, freak! Are you a mute?! Miss Faye was talking to you!”


    “Your daughter is lucky to be to Miss Faye’s liking. Your kid will be popr instantly with Miss


    Faye’s help, and she’s going to make a fortune! Don’t you need the money?”


    Carmen had left a favorable impression on Faye with her adorable and smart look. Faye was confident


    that the girl would instantly be famous with her debut, and she was determined to recruit her since


    she had met her today.


    Pursing her cherry-red lips, Faye smiled and said, “It’s such a pity if your daughter doesn’t make a debut.


    What about this—name your price to sell your daughter. I’ll pay whatever price you demand.”


    “After all, your daughter is only acting in this movie for the sake of money, isn’t it?”


    She finally revealed her true colors.


    Cooper had no desire to be bothered with this ridiculous woman.


    Sophia, too, thought that it was a waste of time to engage in a conversation with her, and she quickly


    caught up to Cooper as they left.


    Seeing how they had ignored her act of ‘kindness’, Faye red coldly at the bodyguards standing beside


    her, and the four of them immediately dashed out to block the Mitchells’ way.


    Aggravated, Cooper was about to beat them up but was immediately stopped by Sophia. “Forget about


    it, Dad. We’re in the national museum and there are cultural relics all around, so we might break


    something if we start fighting. Besides, Carmen is watching.”


    Carmen stared at Cooper adorably with her eyes so clear and bright that it could melt one’s heart.


    Cooper did not want to rough up someone in front of Carmen either, so he ordered his bodyguards to


    send off the trouble-seeking people.


    Amidst the chaos, Cooper carried Carmen and left the scene first. Just as he took a few steps toward the


    exit, Michael walked in hastily. He was surprised to see Faye at the scene while Cooper and Faye’s


    bodyguards were pushing and shoving one another.

    He knew what had happened the moment he saw Faye.


    Upset, Carmen tenderly called out to Michael when she saw him. “Daddy…”


    Before Cooper left hurriedly with Carmen in his arms, he coldly said, “We’re not going to shoot anymore.


    We’re leaving.”


    Michael was distressed, and then saw Sophia walking out coldly. “Carmen is not in her best state today.


    We’ll continue the shooting some other day; hope that’s fine.”


    Meanwhile, Director Wall and Faye caught up to Michael too.


    Faye had seen Michael the moment he entered the ce, and she was astounded by his charm and


    good looks, which did not change a single bit even after three years.


    Three years ago, he was a stately prince who was high up there and could only be admired from afar,


    but now, he was merely an obsolete actor. Getting him to sleep with me will be easy this time round.


    She then walked up to him inrge strides, her eyes glinting.


    On the other hand, Michael was questioning Director Wall, who had already reached him. “What’s going


    on?”


    Thest scene had been tailored for Carmen, and the original n was to look for any actress to take


    Carmen around the museum.


    However, it turned out that the actress was Faye Edwards.


    Director Wall became even more embarrassed as he mumbled, “Uhmm… As you know, you’ve retired


    from the screen for three years, and I’m worried about the box office performance even with your


    comeback. I thought it would be desirable to have the cameo appearance of a few popr celebrities in


    this film.”


    “Miss Edwards is your rtive, and she offered to take the cameo role for free. All she wants is to meet


    you.”


    Given Faye’s identity as Michael’s sister-inw in addition to her physical resemnce to Michael’s wife,


    Director Wall thought he might as well matchmake them knowing that Faye was interested in Michael.


    Meanwhile, swaying her body, Faye walked charmingly toward Michael. Even though she was excited,


    she contained herself as she knew that they were not in the same league anymore, and he should be the


    one riding on her coattails.


    “Taylor…”


    Gazing at him seductively, Faye osted Michael in a delicate voice, her body almost leaning against


    Michael’s. She sized up Michael from head to toe as if what was standing in front of her was a delicious


    meal.


    Avoiding Faye’s feverish re, Michael frowned and turned to Director Wall. “Don’t worry about the box


    office performance. Also, we don’t need the cameo appearance of A-list celebrities in our film. Let’s call it


    a day for now. We shall schedule another time for today’s shooting.”


    After he said that, he left in a hurry and didn’t even talk to Faye.


    Sophia was waiting for him at the entrance, and they quickly left the scene.


    Once he was gone, the atmosphere became increasingly awkward. Director Wall did not even dare to


    nce at Faye, who was now ring up in contrast to her gentle demeanor just now.


    Who do you think you are, Taylor Murray? You’re just an obsolete actor! How dare you be this arrogant?
