My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 448

“You are planning to change the lead and remove an actress under my company’s stable, and yet you didn’t bother to inform me? Furthermore, you are planning to tell me after the fact. Do you want me to be the last to know?” Nan Chen sneered.

At that moment, Liu Yuan didn’t dare utter another word as he looked towards Ouyang Qing.

“The script wasn’t leaked by Ding Mi,” Nan Chen concluded.

Ouyang Qing shot another glance at Liu Yuan.

“Mr. Chen, we want to believe her with regards to this matter. However, she is the only one that saw the script and claimed that the USB drive is empty. However, when we opened it, the script was inside. You have always been professional at work, naturally…”

“Stop groveling at my feet,” Nan Chen cut him off abruptly, causing the room to fall into silence.

Nan Chen’s frostiness wasn’t acted out. Instead, he emanated the freezing aura naturally.

The chill that everyone felt from him was similar to the gush of freezing air from an opened fridge door.

However, no one dared to reach out and close the fridge door. In fact, it was likely too late to do so.

“You claim that no one believes her, but I do,” Nan Chen declared.

The silence now was deafening.

“Chen, I believe Ding too. Now, we’re just discussing…”

“There’s no need to discuss anything. Everything she said was true,” Nan Chen asserted.

Even Ning Ran was stunned as she didn’t expect Nan Chen to defend her with such fervor.

“Mr. Chen, although Ms. Ding is one of your company’s actresses, this still relates to work. You can’t just…”

“When she opened the USB drive, I was beside her. I saw for myself that it was empty. Hence, she is telling the truth,” Nan Chen coldly interrupted.

The room quietened again.

With Sir Chen as the witness, there’s no longer any room to maneuver.

No one is going to come out and openly cast doubt on him.

He is the lead investor, so doubting him would be the equivalent of suicide.

“Are you saying you saw with your own eyes that the USB drive was empty?” Liu Yuan clarified.

“Yes,” Nan Chen quipped.

“But when we opened it, the contents of the script were all there. It’s obvious that Ms. Ding had seen the script.”

“So are you suggesting that Ding Mi and I leaked the script together?” Nan Chen looked straight at Liu Yuan.

“I didn’t say that.” Liu Yuan began to panic.

He had hated Nan Chen because Nan Chen had rebuffed his request to invest in another project.

However, he wasn’t in a position to challenge Nan Chen directly; therefore, he was resigned to scheming behind Nan Chen’s back.

When Ouyang Qing came into the picture, she noticed the animosity Liu Yuan felt for Nan Chen.

Hence, she recruited Liu Yuan into her fold and formed an alliance with him.

Liu Yuan was naturally delighted to have the Ouyang family as his patrons. After all, everyone knew how wealthy they were.

But more importantly, Ouyang Qing was a beauty.

Despite being married, Liu Yuan’s interest in pretty ladies never waned.

Therefore, he lusted over her although his desire was never reciprocated.

“If any of you believe that Ding Mi and I leaked the script together, you are welcome to withdraw your investments in the movie and leave at once,” Nan Chen declared.

Obviously, no one dared to say a word.

“Chen, we are just discussing it. No one is accusing Ms. Ding of anything, so please don’t misunderstand,” Ouyang Qing frantically clarified.

“I have provided you with the evidence, so what’s left to discuss?” Nan Chen demanded.

The silence continued.

Ning Ran finally understood that it didn’t matter whether one’s words made sense. What was more important was the status of the person saying it.
