My Dreamy Old Husband -
Chapter 460
After Elizabeth became famous, most of the money that she earned was used on her family. Whenthe Murray Family received her money, they started to dabble in business, which immediately tookoff.
However, after her death, they lost the infinite supply of money, so the Murray Family's success wentdown the slope. Although it had been years, they were still using her money to earn more for theirbusiness.
Even though she worked hard her entire life for the Murray Family, they resembled a parasite thatlived off her, trying to suck everything and never gave up even after her death. For her to choosedeath, she could have been desperate and disappointed in the Murray Family. If they had showeredher with some love, even just a little, she would not have chosen to die alone.
That was the reason why Michael couldn't care less about the Murray Family, but he also wanted toavoid any skirmishes with them. However, if they go overboard...
Olivia went to the hospital to take care of James. However, someone unexpectedly barged into hisward and suddenly stabbed him twice with a kitchen knife while he lay on the bed. Although theculprit fled the scene, he was quickly arrested by the police to assist with the investigation, resultingin an attempted murder charge being added to the current issue.
It turned out that some time ago, James had fooled around with a young model until she died. Dueto the influence of the Murray Family and James being a relative of Taylor Murray, the entireincident was suppressed; James was still living a carefree life whereas the young model was dead forno apparent reason.
The person who hurt James was her father. He even admitted that he was the one who castratedJames to avenge his daughter's death and wanted to kill him for her sake. With that, the motive forthe attack was discovered. As James’ life was in a critical condition, he was transferred over the nightand the murderer was brought to face justice.
When Richard caught wind of the news from the filming crew, he couldnt believe what he heard.Richard had seen James kidnapping Sophia with his own eyes and the man had also admitted thatshe was the one who landed him in trouble. How did things end up this way?
However, Richard couldn't even take care of himself. The next day after James was attacked, Richardwas forced to return to Bayside City. In fact, it was better for him to leave as he did not want to visitthe shooting crew often. With Xyla there, he had no freedom at all to fool around outside.
As soon as he returned to the Bayside City, he could do whatever he wanted. Since the Huff Familywas no longer the same as before, he did not have to worry about anything. Even if he was caughtin the act, she and the Huff Family did not have the say to call off the marriage.
On the other hand, Sophia's butt hurt whenever she was with the filming crew on a daily basis. Shehad no idea where Michael found the energy—even though he was a middle-aged man—to filmmany action scenes during the day. Even though she was just an extra, the schedule was alreadychallenging for her.
It would obviously be more tiring for him as the lead actor. However, as soon as he returned to thehotel, he seemed to be possessed by another spirit. He's going to f*ck me until I die!
The new semester in Bayside University had already started and Michael was about to finish with hisfilming. Since he was the lead antagonist, his scenes weren't as many as compared to the mainprotagonist and even gave some of his scenes to the lead actress, so he was about to finish with hisparts.
"Once I'm done filming, we'll have to see the pandas before going for our wedding pictures. We'llonly be back after a while.”
Taking advantage of each second to film the final scenes, Michael chatted with Sophia on thephone. Their group chat was rather active as she had sent another handsome picture of Michael toeveryone.
Stanley complained, “Eddie Fletcher, can you please stop being lovey-dovey during business hours?My job's already difficult enough yet you don't seem to care about the company affairs. Only Seanand I are keeping it afloat—we are exhausted! This is very immoral of you.’
Sean added, “By the way, Sophia, Natasha has returned to Bayside City, so she most likely won't bevisiting the film studio anymore. However, you must be careful as the Mitchell Family is investigatingEddie Fletcher and the identity of Uncle Michael's wife.’
Sophia replied, “Alright. I will be more careful. By the way, how is Nathan doing? Have you guysvisited him?"
Stanley appeared again. “Oh my, Eddie Fletcher, you still remember that you have a son? Look at thisyourself!"
With that, he sent a series of images over. One of which was Nathan wearing the army uniform—hewas so tanned that his baby fat was gone as he trained with the adults with a gaunt jawline andtanned skin, looking very pitiful. On top of that, he even pouted while trying to keep his tears back.How pitiful!
Upon looking at the pictures, Sophia felt extremely sorry for him. My baby son! How did he becomelike this in a mere few days? How much has he suffered?
Although he was technically not her biological son, his father was Justin, who was Coop's junior.Hence, Nathan and Sophia were slightly related by blood; so, no matter what, he was as good as herbiological son to her.
Stanley explained, “He's still training in the military compound, so he can't leave. Not to mention, hehasn't completed his exercises. My, oh, my, what a poor kid. His dad doesn’t love him and his momdoesn't care about him. He's like wild grass on the roadside. How pitiful.”
However, there wasn't much that Sophia could do about it. After all, Nathan had really hurt Michaelthis time, so the latter decided to be serious with his words. Michael's deep, fatherly love hadburdened Nathan to the point where the young child couldn't straighten his back. It seemed like ifhe couldn't complete the 100 exercises, his father wouldn't allow him to return.
“Stanley, take care of him on my behalf. I will be back in a couple of days."
Upon listening to Sophia’s request, Stanley was quite arrogant. “Hmph! In your dreams! Take care ofyour own son yourself—unless you give me the password of your wine cellar in exchange.
There were many bottles with quality wine in Michael's wine cellar, but it came with top notchsecurity where the passcode would change on an hourly basis. To enter the cellar, Stanley wouldneed to obtain the latest passcode from Michael himself. The wine cellar had always been Stanley'sgoal.
Not only were there bottles of good quality wine, but there were also those which had been passeddown from Elizabeth—Classic Lafite, French Cheval-Blanc, and many others, making it a heaven forStanley.
He was met with silence from Sophia's side. Stanley knew that the wine was more important thanNathan's well-being. Michael would never allow Stanley to sneak into the cellar to ruin his preciouswine.
In the afternoon, when Stanley looked at his phone, he realized that Sophia texted him with apassword. “This is the password of the cellar for the next hour.’
Damn! As soon as he saw that, he quickly rushed out of his company and raced to Villa No. 8 at TheImperial and went straight to the wine cellar underground to take a bottle of wine. He also took abottle of beer that was Sean's favorite along.
He managed to make it within an hour. After he took the wine, he quickly replied, “Aunt, thank youso much! I will take care of your son for you. Don't worry, I'll treat him as my own! But, how didUncle Michael give you the password with ease? Even if I kneel before him, he wouldn't budge.’After a while, Sophia replied, “After I slept with him at the tent, he gave it to me."
He was speechless upon hearing that. We are already thousands of miles apart yet she still showsoff in front of me!
In the filming crew, Sophia sat down on a bench to look at her phone while her butt ached. She hadgiven her all for her son.
