Second, Joanne's whereabouts were still unknown, as if she had fallen off the face of the earth...
However, Edwin's entertainment company was getting bigger and bigger, and it had become the absolute monarch in the domestic entertainment industry.
But Edwin himself gradually receded from the public arena and took over the family business.
He became the legendary dominator of the entertainment industry, "who would have to go home to inherit billions of possessions if he didn’t do a good job".
Instead, his wife Sharon stepped into the entertainment industry and began to be an actress.
Backed by the Atherton family and the status of Mrs. Atherton, she soon got popular and planned to compete for Best Actress.
But in the early spring of this year, there was a new strong entertainment agency entered Sapphire City...
It was said that it had been run by a homecoming rich second-generation American just for fun.
It had not so many actors and actresses, but each of them was very distinctive...
Maybe because the rich second-generation had too much money to spend, he dated different actresses and young models every now and then and was very generous to them. From time to time, there were gossips about him changing his girlfriends. He was even as hot as A-listers.
Night fell.
A low-key luxury car ran on the road. Jony, the driver and bodyguard, looked at the man in the back seat while driving.
He was about to speak several times but stopped... C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
In the back seat, Edwin crossed his legs and held a proposal.
Three years had passed, and time had left traces of maturity on his face. He became more reserved and less idle.
He caught a glimpse of Jony's expression and got that he had something to say. Then he lowered the window lazily and rested one hand on it. His slender fingers raised and wiped his short hair from his forehead, then he said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Mr. Atherton, Mrs. Atherton made trouble again. She disfigured an actress in her same crew. Now the parents of the actress are clamoring for justice fortheir daughter. They also hired a group of thugs..."
Before Jony's words were finished, Edwin suddenly saw a familiar figure flashing at the end of the street.
He changed his face and sat up straight suddenly, "Stop the car!"
Jony was startled by Edwin's sharp roar. He immediately stepped on the brake and blurted out, "Please rest assured. I will solve this matter for Mrs. Atherton and there won't be any gossip about her!"
But Edwin ignored him. He got out of the car straightly and ran quickly towards the end of the street.
Looking at the road with people coming and going and with cars running, he breathed violently...
A few seconds later, he suddenly laughed at himself.
It had been four years since she disappeared. How could she appear in Sapphire City?
Maybe it was his illusion again.
"Mr. Atherton, what are you looking at?" Jony came and followed him belatedly.
Edwin answered after a long time, "Nothing. Go back. What did you just say about Sharon?"
On the other side, Joanne wore a big mask, carried a heavy bag, and bent down to sit into a black Spyker.
The man in the driver's seat was about twenty-six or twenty-seven. He was young and handsome in a suit. However, he had a buzz cut, as if he had just come out of prison and had not enough time to change his hairstyle. Seeing that Joanne got in the car, he immediately chattered to her--
"Damn it, Joanna! I'm up to my neck in Patrick's bullshit!
"He is taking my sister in his arms happily in Mourpa, and let me take you to Lanchester to see the doctor...
"Well, isn’t it hot to wear a mask in the summer? Although you were badly burned in the explosion four years ago, at least you have received graft operations more than a dozen times. Now you are better, right? Why don't vou take off vour mask and let me see vour recoverv status?"
