Chapter 964


    Sophia knew very early on about Michel Group entering the Cethos mobile phone market. Michel Group


    used to sell high-end mobile phones that cost tens of thousands each, and their customers were gold-


    cor workers and sessful business people. But now, Michel mobile phones were starting to enter the


    Cethos market. In addition to their usual sales of high-end business phones, they were also going to


    release a mid-end phone globally, including in Cethos. The price was simr to those sold by Apple in


    the same range. At present, although their official website had pictures of the phone, details of it were


    still kept confidential and it was not avable for sale yet.


    The mobile phone’s insignia was a dragon eye, and the Michel mobile phone was called “Dragon Eye”.


    If one wanted to sell Dragon Eye in China, a well-known spokesperson was needed to bring in the sales.


    Bing the spokesperson for Dragon Eye was also beneficial for a celebrity. It could help them raise


    their fame and status in the entertainment world. Sophia thought of her ‘wild husband’ when she found


    out there was such a good opportunity.


    Alice had also said that the spokesperson would be selected from a pool of male artists with a particr


    reputation and temperament. Among this pool of artists were Michael, Harry and Nichs.


    But here was the problem. Cooper would not allow Michael to ept this endorsement.


    Both Michael and Harry would not ept the job, so Alice had to select another person from that pool of


    male artists. Her staff had already contacted Nichs and the other artists’ agencies, but they hadn’t


    reached a decision yet.


    A few dayster, another gossip appeared online, saying that the spokesperson for the Michel mobile


    phone had been chosen, and it was to be Nichi Gates. Taylor Murray and Harry Winston were just


    hearsay, or rather, these two thought that they could win the endorsement, so they had released the


    news in advance to build hype. Unexpectedly, thepany thought that they were not popr enough,


    and that as old male stars, they no longer had any appeal, so they were not good enough to be


    spokespersons.


    After it was reported that Michael and Harry were going to be the spokespersons, their poprity rose


    and they were often the topic of conversations. Now the winds had turned, and all of this had paved the


    way for Nichs to take over the endorsement!


    The previous news was actually released by Nichs’s team deliberately. They rode on Michael and


    Harry’s fame, but they attacked them at the same time!


    It was truly disgusting!


    “Dad, just let Mikey take over this endorsement, ok? Dad—”


    Sophia almost got down on her knees and begged Cooper. She behaved like a spoiled child and shook


    his arm.


    Cooper, however, was unmoved. “No, he isn’t suitable for the role! I won’t agree to it!” he said.


    Even though Michael was sitting right there at the side, Cooper was still direct with his words.


    Michael had been staying over at Cooper’s home for New Year celebrations. Right now, he was


    scratching his nose and didn’t dare to say anything. Before, when he needed to go abroad for filming, he


    was afraid that Sophia would really forget about him, so he epted a lot of moronic endorsements.


    Although ying the fool seeded in making Sophia remember him, this had also caused Cooper to


    have quite the impression of him, and not the good kind.


    Does he dislike me so much?


    Even if he did endorse a stainless steel wash basin before, it was still a stainless steel wash basin


    produced by a world-renowned bathroom brand.


    A normal celebrity wouldn’t have been able to get such an endorsement!


    Even the Queen of Ennd used stuff from this brand. It was a very big brand!


    It wasn’t demeaning at all!


    Of course, he justined inwardly. He then looked at Carmen, and his eyes motioned to Carmen for


    help. After all, two was better than one.


    With a pitter-patter of footsteps, Carmen ran toward Cooper and started acting cute. “Grandpa, please let


    Daddy have this endorsement. Daddy will be able to earn lots of money and buy tons of candy for me.”


    Cooper knew that Michael would send Carmen over, but this time round, Carmen had no effect on him.


    “Come here, Carmen. Let Grandpa tell you a piece of good news!”


    Cooper hugged Carmen and said happily, “Grandpa specially had a children’s watch made for you. You


    can use it to make calls. It will be avable for sale this winter and when the timees, Grandpa will let


    you be a junior spokesperson!”


    Carmen was overjoyed and she said happily, “Then can I bring Ashton with me?”


    Cooper nodded, and Carmen ran away happily. She wanted to share the news with her friends and had


    thrown Michael to the back of her head!


    Michael was speechless.


    All that effort raising her was a waste.


    Sophia spent a long time trying to persuade Cooper, but Cooper refused to budge, making her frustrated.


    She also didn’t feel like going to Alice. Although the situation from before had been cleared up and it was


    revealed that Cooper had been behind it, talking with Alice had be awkward for Sophia, and she


    was too embarrassed to ask Alice directly.


    This was the first time she was using her identity as Lucile Michel to ask for something, but unexpectedly,


    it didn’t go well.


    She could only me herself for not having any influence!


    Seeing Nichi Gates in the news riding on Michael’s fame while ndering him, Sophia was furious!


    Fu*k this sh*t!


    I will get this endorsement no matter what!


    Michael just loved to watch his dear wife getting all furious for himself. She was so cute that he just


    wanted toy on top of her in bed and get all sweaty and passionate with her.

    After she got it out of her system, Michaelforted her. “Forget about it, let me deal with this. You don’t


    need to worry.”


    Michael had seen plenty of fiercepetition in the business. Things like using others as stepping


    stones were verymon, and the entertainment industry was full of fence-sitters. You could get rid of


    one, but there would always be more.


    He made movies because he liked it, and because he wanted to inherit his mother’s mantle and be


    a sessful movie star. He always let the box office performance of his movies speak for themselves,


    and he never participated in scheming behind the scenes.


    He made movies for entertainment and epted endorsements for fun. Other people, on the other hand,


    did it to make a living. It was natural that others would hate him for stealing their jobs.


    If one wanted to make it big in the business, it was impossible to not get mixed up in some sort of


    struggle. The only way to not get involved in stuff like this was to get rid of all thepetition.


    Sophia also knew that it was impossible for a celebrity to not step on the toes of their peers in the


    business when trying to make it big. Some people didn’t dare to do anything publicly, so they put on an


    anonymous mask on the Inte and made up all sorts of scandals. It was a waste of time to deal with


    these people. If they dealt with Nichi, another person would pop out and pick a fight with Michael.


    However, this time, she needed to get this endorsement for Michael!


    Did they think they could mess with Michael with her around?


    It was unforgivable!


    After resolving herself, Sophia started to n.


    On that night, everyone was watching television during family time. Sophia and Michael were sitting in a


    pile of wrapping paper and small gifts. They were working hard to wrap the small gifts and put bows on


    them. Carmen and Casper also worked hard and helped them put bows on the presents.


    Cooper was at the side, watching them work for a long time. He saw that they had prepared a lot of small


    gifts that children liked, such as dolls, Transformers figures, Lego bricks, and game console books. After


    they were wrapped, Sophia even wrote New Year’s greetings on the presents.


    “Baby, what are you doing?” Cooper finally couldn’t help but ask.


    As she carefully wrapped the presents, Sophia replied, “I’m going to Nicole’s orphanage tomorrow to give


    warmth to the children. Dad, do you want toe with me?”


    Cooper had no interest in doing something like spreading cheer, but he had been having trouble putting


    aside his pride and approaching Sophia after having a little fight with her because of the matter of


    Michael’s endorsement. Giving warmth to the children seemed like a good remedy, so Cooper quickly


    agreed.


    Because they wanted to give warmth to the children, Sophia and Michael personally prepared the gifts.


    All of the gifts were bought ording to the children’s wish list, were wrapped by them, and they even


    wrote the blessings. It was full of sincerity.


    The next day, the gifts were packed till the car was full, and off they went to Nicole’s orphanage outside


    the city.


    They traveled low-key and there were no reporters to apany them, so they invited Maddie over to


    write an interview about the charity drive. Joel came over as well.


    Naturally, Harry and Sarah came too. Sean and Stanley were also summoned to help. After everyone


    had gathered, they set off together. Sophia, full of confidence, treated today as a team building exercise


    as she wanted everyone to spend some quality time with each other.
