My Three Darlings by Anonymous novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44

Who did he think he was?!

“I’m the Best Actor-to-be at this year’s Golden Bull Award!” Jay was furious. He glared at the director fiercely and hissed between gritted teeth, “You call this a valid reason?”

He didn’t understand. Why? Who exactly was he? How did he coerce the least corrupted director in the industry into losing his bottom line? “Best Actor at the Golden Bull Award?” The man sitting beside Eliza let out a chuckle. “Not necessarily, right?” As soon as he finished speaking, the chief director promptly caught on that Jay no longer stood a chance to be crowned Best Actor. He snorted coldly and instantly grew apathetic toward Jay. “To the best of my knowledge, the final results of this year’s Golden Bull Award aren’t out yet. “Do you really consider yourself a candidate for Best Actor?” He turned toward the chief scriptwriter and ordered, “We’ll make changes as this gentleman sees fit!” Then, he glanced at Jay indifferently. “If you have objections, you may pay the liquidated damages and leave! “There are many other actors who would die to take your place!” Jay was petrified. After all, the chief director had personally come to his home and invited him to be part of his new series. He even mentioned specifically his potential as the next Best Actor at the Golden Bull Award. Upon hearing that he wasn’t fond of Eliza, the chief director even went up to Tom in person and threatened him to fire her. For no apparent reason, his attitude suddenly shifted so thoroughly within a couple of days. At this thought, Jay narrowed his eyes and turned to glare at Beau. “Who exactly are you?” Beau feigned ignorance. In a gentle movement, he handed a pen and a piece of paper to Eliza. “Don’t hold back; create the scenes you wish to act in.” The chief scriptwriter stepped forward and nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Miss Lawson. Go ahead and write down everything. I’ll make changes according to your wishes.” Eliza couldn’t find her tongue.

She was aware that Mr. Valentine had an immense influence.

But this was still beyond her expectations. She didn’t think that he was so powerful that everyone in Parson Media licked his boots. Feeling the intense gaze of the chief scriptwriter, Eliza couldn’t let the words flow from the tip of her pen. She shifted the piece of paper toward her and passed her the pen. “I think it’s still better if you do it. “I can’t really think of anything.”

The chief scriptwriter looked up at Beau helplessly. “You’ll do it, then. “Get rid of the intimate scenes.”

The chief scriptwriter nodded furiously and cautiously noted down his request. Once she was done with that, she turned and left without a second to waste. Since the script was to be rewritten, there was no need for Eliza and Jay to sync up about their important scenes anymore. Eliza stood up and said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll excuse myself for now.” “I’m leaving too!” Jay stood up and breezed past Beau’s chair. He headed straight for the door and offered, “Eliza, I’ll drop you home.” Eliza frowned and tossed a glance at Beau without moving. “She’s not going with you.” 2 Jay gritted his teeth. “How would you know?” The man calmly rose to his feet, sidestepped Jay, and walked out with long strides. Since the beginning, he had never once laid his eyes on Jay. It was as though he simply viewed him as an insignificant mass of air. “Catch up.”

The man’s deep, icy voice sliced through the air. Startled, Eliza scurried up to him. When she passed by where Jay was standing by the door, he took the chance to seize her by the arm. “Eliza Lawson, you’re starting to look down on me more and more now. “Never forget that I have evidence of your dirty deeds!” She froze for a split second. Recovering from her stance, she looked at him with a sneer. “Jay, if I were you, I wouldn’t threaten me with what happened five years ago. “Do you think you’re the only one who has evidence of what happened back then? “Do you want me to uncover all the details of every penny of mine that you have spent in the past five years? How about I reveal it to everyone in the entertainment industry?” She gnashed her teeth and warned in a low voice, “I suggest that you stay in your place and

drop the idea of threatening me with the past. *Otherwise, I don’t mind ‘fighting’ you to death. “Even if I do get into trouble, Mr. Valentine will have my back. Can Madeleine protect you from anything at all?” With that, she flung herself free from his grasp and chased toward the direction Beau had left.

“Thank you.” Sitting in the back seat, Eliza pursed her lips as she fixed her gaze on the hem of Beau’s trousers. “If it weren’t for you, I would still be syncing up with Jay on those scenes…” “Get ready.” The man glanced nonchalantly at the document in his hand as he continued in a distant voice, “My father caught the news of you two yesterday. Your photos were basically everywhere. “He’s rather dissatisfied with this matter.”
