Soon, she arrived at the hospital and saw the frozen corpse of Qiao Sen in the mortuary. Next to him stood his hysterically crying daughter.
“You…You’re here.”
Emma slowly approached Qiao Sen and his daughter. Eventually, only two words managed to leave her mouth, “I’m sorry…”
“No, it was my fault for not caring enough. I wasn’t a good daughter. You did nothing wrong. You helped my father experience the happiest days of his life. I’ve never seen him that happy before.”
“However, I feel sorry that ‘The Ant Queen’ couldn’t be completed before he passed away…”
After speaking, Qiao Sen’s daughter handed some manuscripts and planning notes to Emma, “These are some of the things he left behind. Emma, you need to complete ‘The Ant Queen’ to console my father’s soul in heaven.”
Emma received the huge stack of documents as tears rolled down her cheeks.
She never expected something like this to happen so suddenly. It was almost like an overexaggerated soap drama.
Worst of all, Qiao Sen anticipated ‘The Ant Queen’ so much, but all of that was gone now.
All Emma could remember were the last words he said to her: “Why are you nagging me like my daughter?”
Why did this old man leave so suddenly? Emma held back her tears as she pulled out her phone and gave Zephaniah a phone call, “Zephaniah, I have a problem that only you can help me with…”
“What’s wrong?”
“Help me continue filming ‘The Ant Queen’. Director Qiao Sen is gone…” Emma said her last few words bet**en sobs, surprising Zephaniah.
He had never seen Emma cry!
Never!
Emma and Qiao Sen were good friends. When she thought about the man that loved sci-fi film more than she did and how he would no longer appear in front of her, she couldn’t help but cry.
Qiao Sen’s daughter was influenced by Emma’s emotions and began to cry as well. Even when Eric arrived at the hospital, Emma was still crying.
As soon as he saw his woman covered in tears, Eric’s heart broke. He quickly walked over to her and swept her off the floor into his arms.
Qiao Sen had left too suddenly; no one expected it. The most important part of the film still needed to be shot before they headed into post-production, but Qiao Sen was no longer around.
“Emma, you’re pregnant, don’t let yourself get too sad. All I hope for now is to see ‘The Ant Queen’ on the big screen. That is the best consolation for my father.”
Emma did not say a word. She simply turned to Qiao Sen’s daughter and gave her three sincere bows.
Afterwards, Eric lifted Emma in his arms and took her home. But, she remained silent for the entire trip.
Eric understood that she needed time to accept the truth, so he called Luke, told him to put filming for ‘The Ant Queen’ on hold and instructed him to comfort the staff.
Emma leaned against the bed as she listened to Eric’s phone call, unable to draw her mind away from Qiao Sen’s death.
Eric noticed this and his heart broke as he sat on the edge of the bed and held onto Emma’s hand, “The only thing you can do for him now is to complete ‘The Ant Queen’ because it was his biggest dream. Emma…I know your heart is broken, but the dead can not be brought back to life. Compose yourself. The entire crew is waiting for you to lead them.”
Emma lifted her head and looked at Eric. As she felt herself overflow with sadness, she replied to Eric with a sob, “I’m fine. I’ve always known that life is fragile, but I’ve never experienced it before. So, now that I’ve witnessed a man leave this world when he was just laughing and talking to me yesterday…”
“…I’m surprised by how sudden it happened and I’m struggling to come to terms with it,” Emma cried as tears once again rolled out of her eyes.
“As a result, I began to think about you and how you’ve been going back and forth bet**en the set, the office and our home – all because you made a promise to me. You’re practically like a spinning top. It makes me afraid…”
After hearing Emma’s thoughts, he understood her fears. It was hard for anyone to accept the sudden loss of a life, let alone someone that was as sensitive as Emma. So, it was in her nature to think about the people around her and begin to feel guilty.
Therefore, Eric pulled Emma into his arms again and gently patted her back, “You, when you’re strong, even men can’t compete against you. Yet, you choose to torment yourself. Why should you shoulder responsibility that you shouldn’t?”
“Stay strong, OK?”
After hearing these words, Emma felt a lot better, and after another round of crying, her emotions finally stabilized.
She rested a bit before she pushed herself to return to the set. Eric understood that she needed to vent her feelings, so he decided to accompany her.
Meanwhile, as soon as everyone on set found out about Qiao Sen’s passing, they were overcome with grief. Some people even felt that ‘The Ant Queen’ wouldn’t be the same without Qiao Sen because no one was as passionate as him.
So, after Emma arrived on set, everyone looked at her and asked, “President Miller, are we going to continue filming? How are we to continue?”
Emma held back her tears and replied, “Filming will definitely continue. I’ve already contacted Director Zephaniah. After he settles down, he will take over from Qiao Sen.”
The staff weren’t particularly excited by this.
So, Emma added, “I know that it’s hard for you guys to accept Director Qiao Sen’s death. I can’t accept it either, but the director’s biggest dream was to see ‘The Ant Queen’ make its way onto the big screen. That’s why, from now on, I hope everyone can put in their best efforts and continue to work hard for the film. The day that it finally gets released, I will remember each and every one of your names and faces.”
After hearing these words from Emma, all the staff on set were moved to tears, “OK, since President Miller isn’t giving up, then we have no reason to give up either!”
“We will persist until the end and help the new director settle in as soon as possible!”
“Thank you.” Although Emma was in Eric’s embrace, they all understood that the woman that appeared weak actually had a very strong spirit.
Her confidence and passion quickly united everyone.
“Everyone on set will receive double their income from now on.”
Eric said this last sentence because he understood that compensation was an important means of comfort for the staff.
This was the only way to make the staff work harder and wholeheartedly invest their efforts into the film…
Soon, Zephaniah returned from overseas. As soon as he stepped foot in England, the first thing he did was go to Superstar Media to see Emma. When he arrived, Emma was in the process of releasing an announcement for Qiao Sen’s death.
“I’m sorry for calling you with such short notice…”
“Sorry isn’t necessary bet**en us. Leave it with me,” Zephaniah assured. “I may not be good at other things, but when it comes to helping a friend, I am more than capable. What’s more, I’m really happy that I can still be of use to you.”
“What about Xing Lan…”
“She is attending an audition overseas. She has an assistant accompanying her, so I don’t need to worry for the time being.”
As a result, Zephaniah took all the information that Qiao Sen left behind and decided to analyze his style of filming so he could reduce the difference bet**en their footage.
As for Qiao Sen’s death announcement, Zephaniah decided to give Emma some words of advice.
“Mr. Roborts didn’t try to stop you?”
“If you make the announcement now, you will give everyone another reason to slander you. I heard that you’ve already created a lot of enemies because of Luo Sheng.”
“What do I have to fear?” Emma asked. “If they want to slander me, then go ahead. If they want to ridicule me, I don’t care. But, if someone tries to provoke me head on, I won’t hold back.”
“Qiao Sen has spent his whole life trying to perfect sci-fi. I don’t want him to leave quietly.”
“Fine. Since so many people are supporting you, you can do whatever makes you happy.”
After speaking, Zephaniah left with all of Qiao Sen’s manuscripts and notes. He needed to immediately focus on the film.
Soon thereafter, Emma released an announcement for Qiao Sen’s death on behalf of Superstar Media.
She was going to fulfill the wish that Qiao Sen couldn’t complete.
It didn’t take long before everyone heard of Qiao Sen’s death. At the same time, the cause of death was confirmed as a sudden brain hemorrhage from overworking on the set of Emma’s new film, ‘The Ant Queen’…
This news made President Fan extremely happy…
Did this mean that Emma was responsible for the loss of two lives?
The public immediately erupted into discussions.
“Couldn’t she have peacefully remained as a diamond manager? Why must she stick her nose into everything? She even tried to create a so-called national sci-fi film and caused someone to lose their life.”
“I really want to know what Emma’s thinking. I can’t understand her…”
