Chapter 454

“See! You can’t even say a word, can you?” Esther found his indignation amusing. Finally, after a long

time, she had the upper hand, and she was thoroughly enjoying herself.

“You’re being unreasonable!” Mobius couldn’t control his anger, making it hard for him to catch his

breath. He had never imagined that the usually obedient Esther would become so rebellious one day.

Suddenly, gloominess shone in his eyes. He grabbed the back of Esther’s collar. “I’ll teach you a lesson

on behalf of your brother. I’ll report this to him if you act like this again.”

“Tsk, I’m not scared of Tyler,” Esther said disdainfully. She felt that he always made excuses and lied

about his feelings.

“He said he’s going to tell your mother.”

In the next second, Esther’s smug smile stiffened. “Okay, forget what I said.” She then hid behind

Mobius, looking dejected.

Seeing this, Pearl felt helpless. It was a rare opportunity to force Mobius to admit his feelings for

Esther, but Esther gave in too easily.

Eric didn’t dwell on the situation either. He extended his hand to shake hands with Mobius. “Hello, nice

to meet you.”

Mobius, with a cold expression, shook Eric’s hand firmly. “I can’t say the same.”

“Ah!” Eric winced from the firm handshake and turned to look at Pearl in bewilderment. “Is your friend

really that strong?”

“Haha…” Pearl forced a laugh. “That’s just how he is. Don’t take it personally.”

“Alright,” Eric nodded. “Let’s go in.” novelbin

Pearl led Eric to the set of “The Melody of the West.” Esther wanted to join them but stayed back due

to Mobius’ threat.

When the director saw Pearl again, he had a headache. “Miss Pearl, I can’t make a decision about this.

I told you I can’t upset Miss Jenny’s backer…”

“Look, Eric. Jenny has threatened all of them.” Pearl turned to Eric, shrugging helplessly.

Eric wore a serious expression as he stared at the director. “What did Jenny say to you?”

“She said she would have her boss shut down our production if we let others use the set,” the director

stammered but continued, “I thought it was just Mister Richard. Since he’s close to Miss Pearl, I

thought he would agree. But Miss Jenny mentioned that her boss is the son of an oil tycoon and even

showed me evidence. I…I had to agree.”

After explaining, the director let out a deep and helpless sigh.

“What if I tell you that the oil tycoon’s son is my friend?” Pearl asked.

The director’s eyes lit up with hope. “Really?”

“Here he is.” Pearl pushed Eric forward since the director didn’t believe her. “Why don’t you tell them

about your identity, Eric?”

Eric showed his passport. “I’m sure this can prove who I am.”

After a glance at the passport and the familiar name on it, the director turned pale. It was really him!

In an instant, the director’s legs felt weak, and his voice trembled. “Oh, sir. You’re here because—”

“I came to Caplein because of what Jenny did. She used my identity to threaten you all and harm

Pearl’s interests. I’m very upset about it. So, I want to make it clear that you must prioritize Pearl

above all else.”
