The heavy slap was about to land on Clara's face when she suddenly grabbed her daughter's hand."Felicia! Are you out of your mind? Do you really want to slap me if I had failed to catch your hand?"Clara was in total disbelief."Of course, yes! In fact, you deserve to be beaten to a pulp," Felicia answered in a great rage, struggling to free her hand from her mother's grip.Clara was still finding it difficult to digest her daughter's response. Felicia really wanted to slap her mother.What a taboo!She even insisted on beating her to a pulp!Holy cow!"Tell me, Felicia. What have I done wrong for you to think of beating your own mother? Don't you have any shame at all? Aren't you even afraid of karma?""Stop saying nonsense, Mom!" Felicia struck her mother right away, making Clara's jaw drop to the floor in total shock.She couldn't understand what she had really done to deserve such bashing from her daughter.Felicia, in the middle of her rage, spat her words in her mother's face.
Chapter 422
Inside the Flytime Cinema, the space looked quite beautiful, and almost all the seats were occupied. The big screen on the wall was displaying some advertisements since the movie they had come to see hadn't started yet.Kate and Roderick settled on two vacant seats in a corner. This kept them away from unnecessary attention, but it was a good spot, guaranteeing a clear view of the big screen.Just a moment after they settled down, Kate cupped Roderick's palm, looked him in the eyes, and asked, "Are you angry?"Roderick's face squinted slightly, quite confused by her question."No, I'm not. Why do you think so?""You've been silent since we entered the hall. So, I thought you were angry about your ex-mother-in-law's drama."Roderick waved his hand, dismissing the matter.It seemed more like he didn't want to talk about it further. Meanwhile, Kate was curious.She couldn't hold it in and had to ask, "If I may ask, what did she tell you?"Kate's voice was soft. She was ready to hear ever
Chapter 423
In an executive office at Flytime Cinema, Margaret was seen dressed so elegantly and charmingly. However, the look on her face was as sour as lemon juice.She was staring blankly at a mirror, to the point that tears were about to stream down her cheeks.This shows how emotionally broken she was.Yes, the movie launch happening today was for no one other than the Golden Lady of Starlight Entertainment.Margaret had helplessly followed all the orders Roderick gave her, and now all that remained was either being booed by the public or receiving the opposite reaction.However, she knew what the public's reaction would be. She didn’t want to give herself false hope and expect magical admiration from the public.The picture of how embarrassing things would be for her in the end appeared in her mind, and the tears she had been holding back suddenly streamed down her face.The fact that all her late nights of stress over the years to build Starlight Entertainment were about to crumble right b
Chapter 424
Caleb was truly present for his daughter to ensure the show was a success. One of his efforts was offering her a promotion strategy that would help improve things.He thought his daughter had used the strategy, but little did he know that Roderick had already devised a plan for her.Caleb hated the fact that Roderick had just stolen the credit he was supposed to receive.Why must he always take the lead in everything?At this point, Caleb was quite worried that his daughter might start to favor Roderick over him if he failed to prove himself better than that d*ckhead."Wasn't my strategy good enough, Margaret? Why did you ditch it?" Caleb asked with a frown.As a present and involved father in his daughter's life, he couldn't stand watching someone else take his place before her."It's not that deep, Dad. Although the strategy you proposed might be helpful, Mr. Holmes' plan still has a better chance of success."Eh!Caleb couldn't believe his ears. This was exactly what he feared. Had

Upon hearing that, Margaret was able to let out a sigh of relief.She had thought the movie wasn't interesting enough to elicit a reaction. Little did she know that the movie was so good that it kept the audience completely silent until the end."The storyline was well written!""All the cast did a perfect job, too.""This is nothing but a masterpiece. Kudos to all the masterminds behind it!"Margaret couldn't contain her joy as so many positive reviews continued to circulate.Margaret was in a happy mood when her father quickly came over and congratulated her."This is really a great achievement for you, darling. A very big congratulations." Caleb's face was all smiles as he said that.Of course, his daughter's happiness was his happiness.Margaret didn't hesitate to say to her father, "It's all thanks to you for your support. And especially Mr. Holmes. If it weren't for him, this day wouldn't have come to pass."Hearing this from his daughter, Caleb's smiling face slowly became blan

Right at this moment, the crowd's curiosity skyrocketed. They all wished to know whom Mr. Holmes, the cast, was talking about.They couldn't deny the fact that he must really be a great person to hold such a place in the hearts of the cast.Kate's confusion only grew wider after Kiki's speech.Roderick hadn't given any explanation as he was confused about how to put the words together for Kate to understand.The microphone was passed to Yoyo, and she didn't say anything different from her friends. She continued to shower Mr. Holmes with praise.Caleb, who was in his seat, had his eyes glued to the stage. He couldn't understand if Mr. Holmes, whom they were all praising so much, was Roderick.He knew it could never be him. He couldn't deny that he must have contributed greatly to the success happening right now, but the praises from all sides of the cast could never be for him.Not only was Caleb troubled by this, but Felicia and her mother were as well.The cold CEO of The Santos Corp

This revelation from Margaret made the crowd go wild.They were all shocked to their feet to learn about it.For Margaret to give such public appreciation to Roderick, they believed it meant his help really meant a lot to her.They began to understand why Cici and her friends couldn't stop appreciating Roderick. It was all because of him that they were able to star in the movie as major characters.The fact that the upcoming actresses did a great job in the movie blew the audience's mind away.No one could have expected such a wonderful performance from them. All thanks to Roderick, who had faith in their talents.Kate looked Roderick in the eyes and said, "I already saw your name as the owner of the story during the cast roll. I was just waiting for clarification, and now I have it."Roderick only nodded slowly. He never knew Margaret would go to the extreme of adding his name to the list of credits.She didn't stop there but went ahead and announced his name before the large crowd i
Chapter 428
Kate was surprised to hear that from Margaret. She wondered if she needed to step onto the stage with Roderick.He was the one who did a great job for the success of the movie. Given that, he should be enjoying the honor all alone.However, turning to see a sign of slight displeasure on Roderick's face at this moment, her thoughts changed immediately.She understood why Roderick's face must have turned into a slight frown. He wasn't cool with stepping out onto the stage at first. Now, Margaret had even made the matter worse by telling her to step onto the stage with him.Kate whispered to herself right away, "Haha, I think this is a good chance to show the world that this incredible man belongs to me."With a sweet smile, Kate cupped her left hand with Roderick's and got them both to their feet.The applause in the hall right now became so loud that it could block the ears.The crowd was admiring the duo as Kate held Roderick's hand, walking toward the stage.There were cameras everyw
Chapter 429
Roderick thought they would be returning to their seats now until Margaret passed the microphone to Kate and urged her to say something as well.With a small smile, Kate took the microphone and began speaking. "I really don't have much to say. I only want to congratulate The Starlight Entertainment Company for taking every piece of advice Mr. Holmes gave them seriously. Here, they are enjoying the outcome.""Whoever takes Mr. Holmes' words seriously tends to leap to greatness in the meantime, and whoever jokes around will definitely get their result too."Kate's words were few but seemed to strike some nerves.Caleb felt greatly attacked by these words.He remembered he was warned not to go after Roderick if he didn't want to perish, but he was so stubborn. In the end, didn't he get his result?Even though this was very on point, Caleb hated the fact that he was supposed to agree with it.Reminiscing about all the embarrassment Roderick had put him through in the past, he couldn't jus
Chapter 430
At this moment outside the Flytime Cinema, the space was filled with a very large crowd—much larger than before.Roderick thought that exiting the hall would mean stepping into freedom for him. Little did he know that the crowd waiting outside was far beyond what he could have imagined.Things were more manageable when he was inside the hall because the influential people approaching him there were reasonable.Out here, it was the opposite. Almost everyone in the crowd wanted either a picture with Roderick or to make connections with him.Among the crowd, women were shooting their shots at him despite the gorgeous Kate standing beside him.This made the environment a bit rough, as no one was willing to give another person a chance to take the lead and reach Roderick before them.If not for the security officers doing a very serious job holding the crowd back, most of the wild ones among them would have rushed at Roderick and Kate.At this moment, Roderick couldn't help but sigh deeply
