He always believed that actors had no integrity, just like how prostitutes had no sincere emotions. But, when it came to Emma, she seemed to hate and shame people in the underworld more than the former two.
“I run legitimate businesses.”
“But, the foundation is still made up of a pile of bones.”
The two looked into each other’s eyes, neither of them wanting to back down. It was obvious that Grandfather Fan was trying control his temper. After all, the person sitting opposite him was a woman and she was also pregnant. No matter how despicable he was, he would never lay a hand on the weak.
“You sure have guts…Does this mean you want to be destroyed together?” Grandfather Fan asked as he stared at Emma. “I don’t understand. My investment into your film is not a disadvantageous thing…”
“My film will always remain pure. I don’t want anything dirty to get involved. Otherwise, I won’t do the late Qiao Sen justice,” Emma replied. “Old man, rather than wasting so much time on me, why don’t you keep an eye on your grandson and stop him from appearing in front of me instead?”
“I can’t guarantee other things, but as long as he doesn’t provoke me, I promise I won’t say a thing.”
This was perhaps Emma’s biggest compromise.
Actually, Emma could tell that the old man meant no harm. He was simply here to make a deal.
But, there was no way that she could agree to Grandfather Fan’s suggestion.
Grandfather Fan took a deep breath. He had never met such a stubborn woman. But, he was imp**ssed by her bold and tough attitude. After all, women like her were hard to come by.
So, he decided not to make things difficult for her.
“I hope you can remember what you’ve said today.”
“I always keep my promises…”
But, during this time, President Fan ended up leaving work early after hearing from a staff member that Emma was meeting with his grandfather and quickly found where they were.
He thought his grandfather was going to show Emma who’s boss, but he didn’texpect that the old man would end up being convinced instead.
After Emma left, President Fan immediately ran over to help his grandfather stand up, “Grandfather, how did your chat go?”
“As long as you leave her alone, she won’t be bothered to deal with your lousy matter. From today onwards, keep your distance from her.”
This was all that the old man said before he boarded his car. It was obvious that he wasn’t mad at Emma. In fact, the two of them were quite similar in a lot of ways.
Grandfather Fan understood that Emma didn’t like the methods used by the underworld. Unfortunately, his generation had no choice but to rely on these methods to survive.
After all, he couldn’t choose the lifestyle that he was born into.
Some people were born into tough situations like that.
Moreover, he was used to being flattered by people that wanted to get on his good side, so it was rare to meet someone that he could share an honest conversation with. Hence, he felt that Emma was quite special!
After Grandfather Fan left the cafe, President Fan turned to his grandfather’s men and asked, “What did my grandfather and Emma talk about?”
“Emma, the sl*t, actually tried to insult Elder Fan,” a bodyguard replied.
After hearing this, President Fan did not say anything in response. But, he kept the grudge deep in his heart.
He was too afraid to even raise his voice slightly at his grandfather, yet Emma actually insulted him?
“I will eventually find a chance to get back at her.”
…
Even though Emma told the driver not to let Eric know that she had been ‘taken away’ by Grandfather Fan, Eric still ended up finding out.
So, as soon as Emma returned home, Eric immediately pulled her into his embrace and scanned her from head to toe to see if anything was missing, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Nothing bad happened to me.”
“If something bad happened, it would have already been too late,” Eric lectured. “You knew you couldn’t keep it from me and that I would worry about you.”
“Or, are you trying to tell me that I haven’t dispatched enough bodyguards for you?”
Emma breathed in Eric’s unique scent. For some reason, she was completely charmed and intoxicated by it.
“If an enemy wants to target you, it’s impossible to completely guard against them and avoid them. Even if you’re cautious and protect yourself well, as long as they monitor you closely, they are bound to find an opportunity.”
“What did he say to you?”
Emma explained Grandfather Fan’s suggestion to Eric. After hearing everything, Eric felt that the Fan Family’s existence posed a huge threat to Emma’s safety.
“Just because you’re not saying anything, it doesn’t mean that I don’t know what you’re thinking!” Emma lifted her head and looked at Eric. “The Fan Family may be hateful, but they have a solid foundation. If we want to go against them, it will take a lot of time and effort, I don’t want you to waste your energy on that.”
“Besides, the little one in my stomach is about to come out. I don’t want to stir up more trouble.”
Eric looked at Emma’s plump belly and gently caressed it with his hands; this was their daughter…
Meanwhile, behind them, the little rascal, Roberts Zichen, once again climbed onto the sofa and turned on the television.
Emma turned around and glanced at her son. This serious little rascal was going to grow up to be trouble.
Although Eric listened to Emma’s thoughts on the Fan Family, he couldn’t help but remain cautious of them.
In fact, he planned to send Grandfather Fan a serious warning…
But of course, he would do that after Emma fell asleep.
President Fan had no idea how Eric managed to get his contact details. After all, not many people knew his personal phone number.
It was apparent that Eric’s abilities could not be underestimated.
“Mr. Roborts must be calling because I invited your wife to some coffee and tea today,” the old man said straightforwardly.
“I heard that Elder Fan wants to find a business partner. I’m pretty sure Elder Fan has no interest in my wife’s small scale projects. Why don’t you work with me instead?”
After hearing this, Elder Fan could tell that Eric wasn’t easy to go up against; he was obviously giving a word of warning.
“A woman’s view of the world has always been innocent and beautiful. So, I want to keep it that way. There are some things that we, as men, can resolve on our own without dealing with it in the open. Otherwise, both of us will suffer. What do you think, Elder Fan?”
“Since Mr. Roborts has already said this, what else can I say? I can barely move anymore. This is already a world for the young people…”
Eric did not say another word as he hung up the phone.
However, over at Grandfather Fan’s end, President Fan was sitting right next to him.
Although Grandfather Fan didn’t show any emotions on his face, he was, after all, insulted by Emma in the morning and then challenged by Eric at night. Unable to control his temper, President Fan said to the old man, “Why are you tolerating this? It’s not like we can’t win against them!”
“Who do you think you are? Did you think that Eric relied on violence to create Kaleidoscope? Think carefully, rascal. Eric’s methods are more frightening than yours.”
“Hmmph, I would like to experience it,” President Fan humphed. “If he was really that frightening, would he allow a woman to step all over him?”
“That’s what you call wife doting!” The old man didn’t agree with spoiling a woman too much, but he wasn’t against it.
“Either way, I don’t believe he’s that scary. Grandfather, rest well,” President Fan said before he left the old man’s bedroom.
Although Eric’s public image had always been stable and the average person didn’t dare to provoke him, it was possible that it was like a bubble, waiting to be popped. So, President Fan wanted to see how powerful Eric really was.
However, this wasn’t something that President Fan had to initiate, because Eric had already lost patience for him.
In the quiet of the night, Eric ended up giving Luke a phone call, “There’s something I need you to do immediately.”
…
Without realizing it, it had been a while since Emma distanced herself from the industry…
However, Superstar Media’s artists were currently hot and shining.
