Chapter 146


    Reba tried calling her dad, but his number was busy all the time. She apologized to Benjamin and


    walked out of the theater. He said he would apany her, but she said it was her family issue, so he


    couldn’t tag along with her.


    If only her family also trusted him like she did, how wonderful his married life would have been?


    Meanwhile, seeing the audience leave the theater, ranting about how crappy the production values were,


    Minaughed like a hyena on drugs.


    “I’m d I didn’t watch it,” she boasted. “Shouldn’t you be thanking me?” Shadow asked. “If not for me,


    you would have suffered like the audience.”


    “Hmph! Don’t try your luck with me, boy,” Mina red at him before leaving, as she had to follow


    Reba.


    Shadow went over to Benjamin and sat on his bike. “Is the movie really that bad, my lord?” “It was really


    engaging for the first fifteen minutes, but then…” Benjamin shook his head.” The quality turned horrible. I


    think someone who’s envious of Jacob did this.” “Maybe it’s that damned judge. Just give me the


    permission to kill him, my lord. If we let him live, he’ll cause more trouble.”


    “First, find out if it’s him or not. We’ll decide what to do afterward.”


    “Got it.”


    At the same time, Veronica, Elizabeth and her family came rushing out of another theater and got into


    their car and quickly left the ce. “How could he not check the print before releasing?” Veronica was


    grinding her teeth so hard it hurt her head.


    “Normally, Father-inw is so thorough,” Elizabeth wondered. “But the movie we watched back then was


    so good, but this one’s poorly edited. I couldn’t watch it.” “If it’s like this in other theaters as well,” George


    could only wonder, “just imagine how badly it’ll affect the weekend collections. People will even cancel


    their bookings. Father-inw should act as fast as possible and release the correct print. Otherwise, the


    damage will be irreversible.”


    Nn was driving the car, with Dorothy sitting in the back. They both hiddenly smiled andughed and


    wanted to see Jacob’s face right now.


    Veronica checked online websites for reviews, and people were already leaving extremely poor reviews,


    even though the first show was yet to finish its full screen time. This just showed how much the movie


    disappointed or angered them.


    Some of the reviews were just too harsh. They just ripped the movie apart. “You call this a movie? It’s a


    perfect pill to lose your mind in thirty minutes!”


    “The movie would have been a lot better in the hands of an amateur editor. I’m afraid people who


    survived even train wrecks can’t survive watching this 150 min debacle!”


    “EL Man, yes, indeed, but beware, L stands for Loser.” “To think I bought a ticket for the first day first


    show for this crap… fuck my life.” Veronica’s heart pounded against her chest from reading the reviews.


    If she was feeling this bad, then how much worse should her father be feeling? In a theater owned by


    Mike, Jane’s dad. Jacob was talking with the satellitepany that was supposed to distribute the movie


    to the screens all around the world. “What the hell do you mean your servers were hacked, and you lost


    the original hard-drives?” Jacob howled in utter rage. “Is this some sort of a joke? Do you have any


    fucking idea how much I’m getting fucked right now?” “We’re extremely sorry, sir, but we need you to


    bring us another copy. You have it ready, right?”


    Jacob gritted. “I have to go and get it from my editing department. I’ll bring it in an hour.” He ended the


    call. “You should first make a press statement,” Mike advised. “Otherwise, people will be confused. But if


    you promise them, you should also be able to deliver. If you fuck up again, then there’s no saving the


    movie.” “I’ll give you an audio message. Just send it to the news channels.” Mike nodded. “That should


    do it, too.” After Jacob left, Mike received a call from his wife. “What’s up, Catherine? I’m busy right now.”


    “This is important. Is Jacob next to you?”


    “No, why?”


    “Listen…” she exined everything that had happened between Jane, Donovan, and Reba. “What?


    Are you sure about this?” “100% sure. Jane hasn’t even eaten anything since yesterday,” she said in a


    crying tone. “What do you want me to do?” Mike asked. “That’s the big question.” “I want you to make


    Reba and his father pay for what they did,” she angrily yelled. “Erase the smile from their faces.”

    “l’ll see what I can do. Keep an eye on Jane till Ie home,” saying that, Mike ended the call


    at am I supposed to do now? If I don’t do what she says, she’ll make my life hard at home. If I do what


    she says, I won’t be able to sleep peacefully, either.”


    Meanwhile, Benjamin was driving aimlessly. Shadow was no longer sitting in the back seat.


    “I wasn’t nning to kiss her, but then I ended up kissing her,” he flushed and daydreamed.” It felt so


    good. Mm?” He noticed that he was being followed. Not just by one vehicle but a lot of them, both in the


    front and the back. “What do we have here…”


    At Bonsbell’s mansion. “Young Master, it’s still not toote,” Luther was warning. “Tell those men to abort.


    Last time, I made use of the situation and got away without having to reveal my identity, but this time, it’s


    different.”


    Artur was watching the live video of the bikes and cars chasing Benjamin. “Since 12 failed, I sent 100


    this time. If they get him, it’s good, but if they fail, I’m at least going to see how he’ll deal with them.”


    “You are putting your head in the tiger’s mouth, Young Master,” Luther’s hairs were standing straight. He


    still vividly remembered how his best unit was utterly thrashed by a couple of guys working at a pizza


    shop. It was so humiliating he wished he could forget about it. “That’s just your perception,” Artur


    smirked. “If you use my eyes, you’ll see I’m so close to shoving a bomb up his ass. He’s pretty much


    surrounded now. I can get him shot from every direction, but I want to see his fighting skills myself.”


    Luther could only shake his head. (He doesn’t get it. He’s writing his own death. That son-inw was


    swift and terrifying. Unless you catch him in his sleep, there’s no chance of winning.)


    “More than his fighting skills, I want to see him cry,” Artur voiced his mind. “Reba is a goddess, but


    what is he? A piss-poor bastard who smells like pizzas shouldn’t be on the same bed with my chick. No,


    he doesn’t even deserve to be in her life.”


    “Young Master…” Luther went out of his way to try onest time. “I was obsessed with a woman like you


    are now. And then I married her. I called her a princess and what not, but now we can’t even stand to be


    in the same room.”


    “Then why didn’t you divorce?” asked Artur without even looking. “And lose everything?” Luther was


    quick to reply. “My money. My kids…” “What’s your point, Luther?” “Don’t stress yourself for a pretty face.


    It’s not worth it.”


    “Huh, are you afraid that I’ll finish the mission which you failed to do?” Artur looked confident. “Unlike


    you, I’ll finish the mission that I started, so just keep watching.” He then gave his men the order. “I want


    him utterly beaten and thrown at my feet. The man to do it will receive a million dors.”
