Chapter 425
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
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

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 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

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 420
Clara was completely shocked as Roderick's loud voice tore through the silent atmosphere.More than a thousand shameful glares were turned on her at that moment. This made her utterly devastated.Anger swirled up in her heart, and her demeanor instantly turned cold.She never expected Roderick to say such a thing so loudly.She had communicated with him in a whisper, expecting whatever his response would be to come in a whisper as well.Well, that was her thought. Roderick didn’t give a damn.If whatever she was saying was reasonable, there was no reason it should be in a whisper.“Is that really the end of the nonsense you have to say?” Roderick asked again in an even louder tone.This pushed Clara’s anger to its extreme. She wondered why he had to repeat the question.The embarrassing stares directed at Clara were now multiple times worse than before. The onlookers all wondered what nonsense Clara must have said for Roderick to hear.The fact that she couldn’t defend herself and rem
