Chapter 314: Unleashing All the Firepower on Him
’When the plot of the main story actually develops, more than ten years from now, will it still unfold like it was written in the original novel?’
Rose Shaw couldn’t find any information about her sister.
This proved that Rose Shaw couldn’t get in touch with the original novel’s female lead ahead of time. ’It seems the butterfly effect hasn’t affected the main plot’s development yet.’
Melody Monroe cursed the original author in her head once again.
’Writing so vaguely... he’s a total scumbag!’
The female lead’s mother, such a crucial character, was never even introduced.
And the female lead had been separated from her mother since childhood, not even knowing who she was.
Later on, the book just mentioned that Rose Shaw found her, explained her relationship with the female lead, and then didn’t add a single extra word of introduction!
’The worst of the worst!’
"I’m going to take a shower. It’s getting late, you should get some rest," Rose Shaw said, standing up to get her clothes.
"Okay," Melody Monroe nodded.
...
Evan Fairchild glanced at the time, his expression terrifyingly dark.
Keith Coleman fell silent.
Suddenly, that cold gaze fixed on him. Keith Coleman shivered and stammered, "President Fairchild, I’ve already arranged for people to find that Felix Hughes. His show is still short more than ten guests! We can just shove someone in to squeeze the missus out."
"’Just shove someone in’?" ’He makes it sound so easy!’
"President Fairchild, I will definitely, absolutely handle this Felix Hughes! I will make sure the missus doesn’t participate in this stupid show!" Keith Coleman pledged again.
"If they’re done talking, why did Rose Shaw keep her there?"
’How the hell am I supposed to know!’
’Wait, that’s not right! Your own wife doesn’t want to come home to you, so what the hell does that have to do with anyone else? Why don’t you look for the reason in yourself for a change!’
"I... I don’t know either. It seems she had something important to discuss with the missus."
"What could be so important that it takes this long to talk about!"
Keith Coleman was speechless.
’Is he bottling up his anger and just taking it all out on me?!’
’What did I do to deserve this?’
"What are you still standing around here for?"
Keith Coleman could feel the utter disdain. ’It’s not like I want to be here, okay?’
’I don’t even want to look at President Fairchild’s ice-cold, killjoy face!’
...
「The next morning」
Melody Monroe and Rose Shaw planned to go to the gym together.
They had just finished breakfast when Rose Shaw got a call from Felix Hughes.
"It’s all confirmed that quickly? What time tomorrow? Okay, see you tomorrow then."
"Rose, are you free tonight?" Felix Hughes asked suddenly.
"I... I’m not sure. Can I get back to you later?"
"Okay, I’ll wait for your call."
Rose Shaw hung up, met Melody Monroe’s gaze, and immediately turned her face away, picking up a slice of bread to eat.
"Was that Director Hughes?"
"Yeah. He said all the guests on his end have been confirmed—twenty-six in total. We have to go sign the contracts tomorrow afternoon. I guess they’re in a hurry to get the show launched as soon as possible. You’re going to be busy from now on."
"Rose, I feel like this is all thanks to you. Otherwise, this show probably wouldn’t have even approached me."
"How is it because of me?"
"Because Felix Hughes wants to make a good impression on you! Look, just yesterday he said the show wasn’t ready so soon and we’d have to wait. Today, he says it’s all settled. He may not be exceptionally handsome, but he has pleasant features, he’s capable, and he seems reliable."
"Did he ask you out again just now?" Melody Monroe asked.
"Yeah," Rose Shaw nodded.
