My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 470

The director would brush Olivia off every time she hinted about it and Taylor would merely say, “Soon. Soon.” He also promised to bring Sophia and confront her about the incident where James was badly injured. Yet, no solid action was taken after such a long time.

Olivia lost her patience and chose to take matters into her own hands! It was during lunch hour that day when she made her move. Michael had barely taken two bites when his meal was interrupted by a dramatic scream from afar. “Oh, Taylor. My Taylor, your uncle has missed you a lot!”

He frowned and lifted his head to see Olivia leading an elegantly dressed middle-aged couple in his direction. In fact, he knew them both. The man was none other than Larry Murray, Elizabeth Murray’s only younger brother and his uncle.

Larry hurried toward Michael and gave a firm hug as his eyes began to tear. He then patted Michael’s shoulder, saying, “My dear nephew, I’ve been searching for you for the last thirty years. I’m finally able to meet you—”

Larry wiped his tears while sobbing, “Where have you been all these years? We’ve been searching for you high and low. Why didn’t you come to look for us? Not to mention, your grandmother—she’s over eighty now and still longs to see you!”

An unperturbed Michael smiled. “I was adopted and raised abroad.”

The Murray Family had tried to search for Elizabeth’s son over the years. Unfortunately, none of them knew who his father was and where the child went. The one thing that they clearly knew was that she left 80% of her fortune to her child, which happened to be Taylor, who now stood in front of Larry.

Their search for Taylor was not out of love—in their eyes, he was a mere outsider who had no right to the Murray Family estate. In exchange for that 80% of the estate, they would rather give up their morality and dignity to look for Elizabeth’s child and take everything back from him. Alas, that child was nowhere to be found and the estate lawyer remained steadfast with his profession and left them with no other means.

Who would have guessed that Elizabeth’s child would appear after thirty years? Not to mention, he was an internationally renowned actor! How great was that?! Back then, the Murray Family had only received 10% of Elizabeth’s estate while another 10% was donated to charity, leaving the remaining 80% for Taylor. An international movie star like him would not mind parting with such a small sum as they expected him to return it to the family eventually. By including him as one of their own, the Murray Family would also be able to climb the social ladder and, not to mention, mingle with the Mitchell Family.

An emotional Olivia spoke with tears swimming in her eyes, “We are finally reunited as a family. I’m exceptionally happy…”

Now that they were guided by emotions, the family hugged and cried together. Michael used his acting skills to good use and forced his expression to have some emotion before uttering, “If you would excuse me, I need to return to work as the filming crew is waiting for me.”

As he prepared to leave, Larry grabbed him by the arm and said, “Sure thing, please go ahead. We’ll let you return to your work, but let’s have dinner tonight.” His grasp remained firmly on Michael’s arm. With greed that was shamelessly plastered all over his face, he made a request. “Your cousin, Olivia, was supposed to be the female lead for ‘War Dragon’. However, at the last minute, she lost the role to some scandal-filled, B-grade actress. Perhaps you could have a word with the director, seeing that we’re family…”

Before he could speak further, Michael interrupted him, “Sure thing!”

Still, Larry refused to release his arm. “About your cousin James…”

Michael replied, “I will make sure that the police find the culprit!”

Larry was relieved—his one and only heir could no longer bear children and there was no one else left to pass the family torch to. Although he had other sons, they were illegitimate and did not have a rightful claim to the family estate. He wanted to end that b*tch’s life for ruining his son!

After meeting with his nephew, Larry recalled the reason why he came to the film studio and wiped his tears before revealing a deadly stare. “Where’s that b*tch who harmed your brother?”

Olivia suddenly realized that she did not see Sophia in the studio and scanned her surroundings before noticing Sophia by the barbecue stall not far from them. “There she is!”

Hale rolled up his sleeves to wipe his sweat from his forehead as he sat facing the barbecue pit. Sophia had the unlikeliest idea of having a barbecue for lunch—on a warm summer’s afternoon at 35 degrees. It was even unfathomable that one could search for a barbecue stall that operated in that melting summer afternoon. The three of them stayed in front of the barbecue pit, feeding themselves with grilled meat as they profusely sweated.

Feeling chills down his spine, Larry turned to see that Olivia was leading a group of burly men toward them with ominous stares.

“Dad, that’s her. She’s the one who ruined James’ future!” Olivia made the accusation as Larry stood next to her.

He observed Sophia, who stood in front of the barbecue pit. His eyes sparkled as he never expected the culprit to be a beautiful lady. It was no wonder that James fell for her! I heard that she is Taylor’s assistant?

That was the perfect opportunity as he would take her first. Since she snatched the chance from James to bear children, he could force her to continue the family lineage for him. The group haughtily marched toward Sophia’s group.
