My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 700

In just a split second, all the attention shifted from the two Taylor Murrays to what Sophia brought with her.

While the two Taylor Murrays set off firecrackers next to the tombstone, Sophia was burning some joss money.

As usual, she was burning an SK2 suit and lipstick. This time around, she added a USB drive that contained the clip of Michael receiving the award, and a paper Academy Award trophy that looked hideous.

Michael frowned and he wanted to tell her to not burn the paper trophy that was hideous enough to terrify Elizabeth. Having thought about how she sacrificed her sleep last night to put that paper trophy together, he decided not to say anything.

It’s the thought that counts.

They were in a hurry to visit the cemetery. Since the funeral supply store did not sell any paper Academy Award trophies, she figured she had to create one herself.

After finishing the rituals at Elizabeth’s tombstone, they managed to bypass all the sea of fans who were there and left in their car to the plot of land in the Memorial Garden that belonged to the Fletchers Family. After finding Theo’s tombstone, they began paying their respects.

Standing in front of the grave, Michael looked somber. He glanced at the empty spot next to Theo’s tombstone—that spot used to be where Justin and Celine lay, but it was now empty.

Perhaps, it’s time to move Elizabeth’s tombstone… Michael felt that it was time to speak to the Fletchers Family about this.

After all, he was part of the Fletchers Family, and Old Master Fletcher wanted him to come home. I can’t possibly refuse to recognize my roots for the rest of my life. I think I’m ready to face it.

 

While burning the USB drive, Sophia burnt another paper trophy that looked even more hideous than the previous one.

Standing in the corner, Nathan silently watched the earnest look on Sophia’s face as she burnt the USB drive.

 

He was eager to ask, Can you really burn a USB drive?

After paying their respects, they were getting ready to go. At this moment, Nathan picked up a stick and poked at the pile of ashes until he found the undamaged USB drive. I knew it!

On their way home, Sophia was happily reading the news on her phone.

This time around, the two siblings had finally made the headlines together. Lord’s finally getting his name cleared off the misunderstanding. Now that he won the Best Actor award for the second time and clarified the rumors surrounding his weight, his popularity will surely skyrocket.

Sophia was right. The hashtags #TaylorMurrayPayingRespects and #TaylorMurrayRealOrFake were already trending on Twitter. Michael had finally restored his public image. However, two other hashtags that had recently emerged quickly took over.

#EddieFletcherAndPaperTrophy #EddieFletcherBurningUSB

Sophia was rendered speechless when she saw that.

Public opinion is really interesting. It’s so easy for everyone’s attention to sidetrack. Just seconds ago, everyone was still talking about Michael’s weight and his twin sister. Now, their focus is on the hideous paper trophy that I burnt.

By the time they arrived home for dinner, news attention was totally diverted.

‘Classic Scenes of the Reserved Taylor Murray’s Female Roles Were Played by His Sister. Warning: Excessive Pictures’

These siblings were seamless in playing their overlapping roles. This was why he managed to present a wide array of styles and characteristics in all his different roles, especially the female roles that he played impeccably. Those were actually played by his sister!
