Chapter 1206


    Is he here to look for Carmen? Cade opened the door and invited Cooper in. “Are you here to pick


    Carmen up, Mr. Mitchell? My mom’s sick, and Carmen’s talking to her now!” Cade said in a pleasant tone


    of voice. Cooper was dressed in a ck winter jacket that highlighted his long and lean figure. His face


    was as cold as the weather outside, and his voice as monotonous as ever. “I heard that Annie’s sick, so


    I’m here to pay her a visit,” he replied as he stepped into the house. Carmen excitedly came over to take


    a pair of shoes for her grandfather once she realized he hade over. The young girl then brought him


    upstairs to see Anna.


    “Grandpa’s here to see you, Miss Beautiful!” Carmen cried.


    It was then that Cade realized the few stalks of roses that Cooper held in the hand that was ced


    behind his back. Woah, what? Is Cooper actually here to give Mom flowers? He wasn’t tricked by


    Carmen! He called Mom by her nickname—Annie—when he came in just now. Annie? Annie! Something


    must be up! Since when did they get so intimate with one another?!


    Cade felt like he had to go up and take a look for himself to investigate the situation and check on their


    progress. But the moment he went up the stairs, he saw Carmen dragging Callum down. When she saw


    Cade, she spoke to him sternly. “Grandpa is too big-sized, and the house is too squishy. There’s no


    space for a third person there.”


    Wait a minute… Carmen’s words had surprised Cade once again. This young girl is in our house, and


    she tantly allowed her grandfather to flirt with my mother, yet she wouldn’t even let us go take a


    look?! Cade seized this opportunity to get Carmen to follow his orders. “Well, let me carry you;


    otherwise, I’m going up there,” he uttered.


    Carmen gave him an awkward stare before she finally lifted her arms up miserably. “Do it, then,” she


    muttered before Cade happily lifted her up into the air. The three of them went downstairs, and Callum


    looked up to nce at Anna’s bedroom on the second floor. It’d be amazing if Anna and Cooper got


    together, but it’s not going to be easy for them to be a proper couple. Dad isn’t dead yet, after all.


    Meanwhile, Anna was the first to speak in her room. “Thank you foring over, Mr. Mitchell. It’s just an


    old illness that I have; it’s no big deal.” Anna seemed extremely d to see Cooper. She sounded rather


    excited, but her voice was still a little weak as she was feeling sickly.


    Cooper nced at her as he stepped into the room. Although she seemed pale, her eyes were twinkling,


    and she didn’t seem to be that ill. This made him feel better, but he quickly averted his gaze as he


    thought that it was rude to stare. “Carmen asked me toe over and visit you,” he exined. With his


    gaze avoiding hers, he looked around the room to see the cup that Anna had just drank from and the


    corgi that was running around on the floor. He was too nervous to know what to say or do, so he brought


    out the few roses that he had plucked earlier and began to arrange them into the vase.


    So Cooper is really the one who has been giving me roses. Anna’s eyes gleamed with joy as she


    grinned. “Thank you for the flowers. They’re pretty. I really like them.”


    Cooper had his back turned against her, but he wore a bittersweet smile on his lips as he nced at the


    flowers. “As long as you like them.”

    In the meantime, Michael was in Vi No. 8 at The Imperial. It was the weekend, and Michael finally


    managed to catch Harry red-handed for stealing all the roses in the greenhouse. With a flyswatter,


    Michael smacked Harry as he shouted. Smack! Smack! Smack! “I nted these roses for my lovely wife,


    and they just f*cking bloomed! My wife hasn’t even had the chance to see it, and you guys have already


    stolen most of it! Carmen stole some; Celie stole some; even my father-inw stole some! I can’t believe


    you’re stealing some too! Do you guys think I’m dead?!” Harry received a good beating from the


    flyswatter, but he insisted on protecting the roses that he had just plucked as he tried to defend himself.


    “Do you think I wanted to do this?! My wife wants some roses too!”


    Michael continued to smack him. “You should nt some roses yourself if your wife wants some! These


    nts took me 6 full months to grow; I had to pluck the weeds, fertilize them, and even pick the bugs out


    of them! I didn’t even want to put any pesticides as I was too emotionally attached to these flowers! How


    f*cking good must it be for you to just pick them up once they’ve bloomed, huh! Get out of here!”


    Harry scurried out of their greenhouse with his arms still around the roses as he threatened Michael. “I’m


    warning you; you can hit me, but not my face!”


    This only angered Michael more as he began to aim for Harry’s face with his flyswatter. “Do you still have


    ‘face’? I thought you wouldn’t know how to spell the word ‘face’ after your shameless act! Anyway, look at


    all the terrible films that you’ve been acting in recently. Your average rating on Rotten Tomatoes is


    probably just 2 out of 5 stars now! You’re really saying yes to every film deal! How many ‘naked loans’ do


    you have to repay?!”


    Harry had epted a number of odd and peculiar films recently. He had really lowered his own


    standards as an Academy Award-winning actor. It’s fine if he doesn’t take blockbuster films, but how can


    he appear in those terrible, low-quality web series?! Furthermore, all of them are web series about gay


    romance! Michael sincerely suspected that the scripts for those films were written by their gaffer, that the


    makeup was done by their logistics team, that the director filmed the entire thing on his phone before


    editing it in some cybercafe. What the hell are those series all about?!


    “Do you think I wanted to do it? Sarah was the one who forced me to ept those offers!” Harry spoke


    up for himself indignantly as he covered his face and continued to run away. Nathan quietly held the door


    open for them and watched as Michael continued to chase after Harry with his flyswatter.


    Smack! Smack! Smack! Michael spoke as he continued hitting Harry. “How could you ept a movie


    offer that pays you 70 million when its total funds invested were only 80 million?! You’re really


    something…”


    Sophia watched their interactions and nodded when she heard what Michael said. I agree! Ipletely


    agree! Following the recent growth in trends of intellectual property, many of the novels were being


    remade into films. Even some of the gay male romance, smut, and Yaoi books that Sarah were addicted


    to in the past had revealed the news of their uing film adaptations. As a master artist in elegant


    Yaoi painting, Sarah would produce new content regardless of how busy she was. She produced more in


    the recent years; she was still one of the most famous artists as she drew graphics of all the most


    popr novels, with Harry’s face as the main character of each novel. Harry was the man who practically


    upheld the livelihood of Cethos’ coborative content creators.


    A few of the novels that Sarah had been following were making ns for a film adaptation recently;


    Sarah and her fans agreed that they wouldn’t be satisfied unless Harry was the main character of the


    movie. She therefore used her own resources to ept a few offers on Harry’s behalf, so that he could


    appear in the film adaptations of those novels. The filming process for these shows were simple—most


    of them were done indoors while all the naked and fighting scenes were done by their stunt doubles;


    Harry simply had to show up every now and then to fake a few actions. He even had a stunt double for


    the kissing scenes. The seriessted 10 episodes, but hepleted his filming within 1 or 2 months


    without having to memorize his script. The voice actors were to do that job after the filming was over, so


    Harry dazedlypleted his filming without even taking a nce at the script.


    In the past, whenever Harry had a filming for a movie, he would have to memorize his own scripts and


    personally appear in all of the action scenes. He would stay up for days without sleep, and it was the


    norm for a movie to take up to a year of meticulous production toplete. Inparison, the web


    series he filmed felt like retirement to him. Furthermore, the web series invested millions into it, and 80%


    of the investments went straight to Harry’s paycheck. It was amazing to feel like money had just fallen


    out of the sky into his pocket. More importantly, his wife loved the films; she would binge the entire series


    right after he finished filming it, and she’d then pester him to film another one.


    After all, he wasn’t the one investing in the films. He could just finish his job, take the money, and leave.


    But when the films were aired… That was the reason everyone had been criticizing Harry for losing his


    mind recently. They thought he had been forced into this because of the ‘naked loans’ he owed.
