My Dreamy Old Husband
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 Jameswas 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 thatday when she made her move. Michael had barely taken two bites when his meal was interrupted bya 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 hisdirection. In fact, he knew them both. The man was none other than Larry Murray, ElizabethMurray's only younger brother and his uncle.

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

Michael's facial expression remained stoic while he gave a polite smile, greeting, “Hello, Uncle.”Larry wiped his tears while sobbing, “Where have you been all these years? We've been searchingfor 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 ofthem knew who his father was and where the child went. The one thing that they clearly knew wasthat she left 80% of her fortune to her child, which happened to be Taylor, who now stood in frontof Larry.

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

Who would have guessed that Elizabeth's child would appear after thirty years? Not to mention, hewas an internationally renowned actor! How great was that?! Back then, the Murray Family had onlyreceived 10% of Elizabeth's estate while another 10% was donated to charity, leaving the remaining80% for Taylor. An international movie star like him would not mind parting with such a small sumas they expected him to return it to the family eventually. By including him as one of their own, theMurray Family would also be able to climb the social ladder and, not to mention, mingle with theMitchell Family.

An emotional Olivia spoke with tears swimming in her eyes, “We are finally reunited as a family. I'mexceptionally happy..."

Now that they were guided by emotions, the family hugged and cried together. Michael used hisacting skills to good use and forced his expression to have some emotion before uttering, “If youwould 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'lllet you return to your work, but let's have dinner tonight.” His grasp remained firmly on Michael'sarm. 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 lostthe 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 replace the culprit!”

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

Michael turned and headed to the filming site and his face filled with disgust as soon as it was outof their sight. Harry then winked at him and muttered playfully under his breath, “My dear nephew,I've missed you so much!”

Before Michael could react, the director came over with a perplexed expression. “Are you sure youwant to replace Nicole Walker?” Nicole had perfectly executed her scenes, so it would be a greatshame to replace her..

“No, we'll keep her,” Michael answered.

The confused director stated, “But, you promised your uncle...”

“I was simply bullsh*tting him,” Michael reassured.

He looked around and noticed that Sophia was nowhere to be seen. Danny then informed, “Madamwent for a nearby barbecue.”

On the other side of the film set, Olivia and Larry left the site together as they wiped happy tearsfrom their happy faces. Larry laughed heartily, “Who would've guessed it? Taylor is really Elizabeth'sson! Things will be very different now for our family!” Elizabeth Murray's son would be a part of theMurray Family and since he was considered as one of their own, someone with Taylor's status woulddefinitely bring endless wealth to the Murrays.

Rumors had it that Taylor was a wealthy person—an Academy Award for Best Actor winner whoseinfluence had reached all corners of the world and a box office winner with multiple investments.Supplementing with the fortune that she left for him, he was the golden ticket that the MurrayFamily needed to propel themselves to greater heights. For the past thirty years, they had survivedon their measly share of her estate, which was running out soon—and her son appeared at the righttime!

Olivia was equally moved. Now that she had successfully reconnected with her cousin, it wouldguarantee her the lead role that she eyed for. From now onward, she would be unstoppable in theentertainment circle with movie contracts and invitations pouring in. It would only be a matter oftime before she was as famous as Bethany Nicole! That b*tch Sophia Edwards would finally get whatshe deserved!

After meeting with his nephew, Larry recalled the reason why he came to the film studio and wipedhis 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 surroundingsbefore 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 at35 degrees. It was even unfathomable that one could search for a barbecue stall that operated inthat melting summer afternoon. The three of them stayed in front of the barbecue pit, feedingthemselves with grilled meat as they profusely sweated.

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

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

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

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