Chapter 519 Excellent Actor
Chapter 519 Excellent Actor
"I..." Biting her lips, Daisy stared at Joseph. For a moment, she wanted to say, "I won't play this role anymore."
But she couldn't afford the liquidated damages, so she sighed and said, "Joseph, I'll put up with you for the time being, but remember, after this movie, we should cut our connection."
"Then let's finish this movie first!" This was enough for Joseph now. He decided to take it slow and just seize every moment he would have with Daisy.
But this was just the first step. Little by little, he would get Daisy back.
Therefore, Joseph took care of the liquidated damages for terminating the contract with the actor so Joseph could replace him.
As a member of the Fu family, Joseph had never been a low-key kind of person. Now that he had entered the world of showbiz, it would be even more impossible for him to keep a low profile even if he wanted to.
Just as expected, what he did instantly became a news headline. He made such a noise in the entertainment industry.
It was hard for Frederic to stay calm because of what had been happening recently, so when he saw the news about Joseph being an actor, he was instantly in a bad mood.
"Hardy, can you ask Charles to keep an eye on Joseph and stop him from making trouble?" Frederic shouted.
Day by day, Hardy had to deal with all his father's rants, so he looked at Frederic helplessly. "Dad, Joseph is not a child anymore. Who can stop him?"Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"That's right, Father. Besides, Charles was also busy with his own business. May I just remind you that Joseph had tormented TS Group, and Charles has to clean after his mess? He's too busy to mind Joseph's business." Of course it was Angelina who was the proudest one when Charles came back to the TS Group.
"Should I let Joseph act?" In Frederic's opinion, his descendants should be in business. He had never imagined that Joseph would be an actor.
Without a second thought, Angelina replied, "Just let him do it. It's better than doing nothing."
"That's right, Dad. Joseph is in a bad mood now. You can just take it as a distraction for him. Don't worry about him. He will come back when he had enough fun," Hardy also persuaded.
For a moment, Frederic stared at them and then let out a heavy sigh. Besides, he had no choice but to compromise for the meantime.
"Okay, I will listen to you. Alas, Joseph is a troublemaker."
On the other hand, Derrick got furious when he found out that Joseph was about to be an actor.
"Joseph, you are such a loser. How could you leave TS Group to Charles just to act? Is acting what you should do as the Fu family's young master? You bastard!" If only Derrick was holding something, he could've smashed it because of his anger.
David was with Anna outside Derrick's ward.
Through the news, he had also known that Joseph entered the world of acting.
With gritted teeth, Anna said, "I want to kill this man myself."
Among them, only David was calm. "You shouldn't blame Joseph, but Charles. If Charles didn't mess up the situation, Joseph wouldn't know the truth. Any man who had been cheated the way you did, wouldn't let the child come to this world alive. So, Joseph didn't do anything wrong. Why do you blame him?"
"Charles... What can I do to him?" Knowing how powerful Charles was, Anna didn't dare to play tricks on him.
To her surprise, David suddenly said, "Anna, just take good care of yourself. I'll take care of the rest."
"Dad, what are you going to do?"
"Don't worry. We are not the only ones who want to make trouble for Charles."
Shaking her head, Anna replied, "No, Dad. You can't defeat Charles. He is more difficult to deal with than you think."
"Everyone has his weakness, so does Charles." Determination was evident in his eyes as he spoke.
"Is it Nancy? Or their children?" But how could David be so confident? What was he planning to do?
Instead of answering her, David only snorted and turned around to leave.
David knew that he had no chance of winning against Charles, but if he joined forces with Derrick, he might not lose.
As soon as David entered Derrick's room, he heard how Derrick called Joseph a loser.
Faintly smiling, David said, "Mr. Fu, Joseph is used to being protected by you. It's understandable that he has no ambition. Please don't scold him."
"I really hate him for that he doesn't want to fight. What a good opportunity it is but this bastard ruined it. TS Group's profit for a month is more than what he can earn even if he acts his entire life. He doesn't want to be the president of the group, but an actor... How could he be so stupid? Only Joseph could do it," Derrick muttered.
"You shouldn't be bothered by Joseph. Think about Charles instead. Charles is still busy with the TS Group and can't spare time to do anything else. Once he's done with all his work, do you think he will turn a blind eye to what you did before? That car accident is the best weapon to destroy you..." David whispered in Derrick's ear.
These words frightened Derrick. "How did you know about that car accident?"
All along, he had thought that he had hidden himself well. Even though Charles had figured it out, he couldn't do anything to make him pay yet.
As for the surveillance video, Derrick could also say that he was deliberately framed by Charles.
Of course, his words were full of loopholes, so he pretended to be ignorant.
"Don't you know that what you did has been widely spread?"
"Who did it?"
"Who else can it be except for Charles? He just wants to destroy you psychologically. If you don't take any action, you may never be able to turn your life around. You will live under Charles' pressure for the rest of your life..." said David.
Of course, Derrick was smart enough to know that David was trying to sow dissension between him and Charles.
But it was also a fact. If Charles' plan succeeded this time, Derrick would be miserable for the rest of his life.
"What should we do?" Derrick asked.
"We all know that Charles' weakness is Nancy and the children. I think this is the best time to implement our plan."
As Derrick listened to David, he couldn't help but sneer. "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Meanwhile, Charles smiled when he saw the news about Joseph.
Then he put the phone in front of Nancy. "Nancy, look, Joseph is going to act with Daisy. If they get along well, they could still get back together."
"I think it is indeed better for a naughty man like Joseph to be an actor than a businessman." Today was one of the rare days Nancy had time to make dumplings for the children. She was busy when Charles showed her the news article.
"Yes... Just like Jay, he is wild and unruly. He could be good in entertainment, but other than that, he could do nothing else." When Jay suddenly crossed his mind, Charles smiled and rubbed his chin.
From the dumplings she was preparing, Nancy turned her attention to Charles with a sigh. "I don't know what's going on with Doris and Jay. They have a lot of problems now... I mean emotionally."
Raising his eyebrows, Charles asked, "What about us? Don't we have anything to do?"
"Us?" As Charles spoke, he leaned over and rubbed his chin against Nancy's neck. "We'll get married in a few days when I'm not busy."
"Let's talk about it after you finish your work... I'm not in a hurry."
"I'm in a hurry."
"Don't be naughty. I'm going to cook. You go and pick up the children later. It's rare for us to spend a weekend together..." Feeling Charles breath on her neck, Nancy felt itchy.
