Chapter 282
Bogus Billionaire
Besides, if Eddyâs second uncle keeps getting into new industries in the country, who knows if the Morrison Corporation will end up in Eddyâs hands or his second uncleâ?â
Jane was taken aback when she heard that âIf Eddyâs uncle ends up on top, he would be unstoppable Heâll have control of both the markets in Sarcozia and Easton Thatâs unheard ofâ
âThatâs right.â Howard chuckled.
âThatâs why you have to develop a good relationship with Daphne. As for what happened today Howard frowned. âDonât let it happen again.â
Jane felt displeased at this. âBut Caroline caused Brieâs condition. Are we just going to let her off?
âDidnât you just say that Sean Yates is her man?â Howardâs gaze turned dark at this âHeâs good friends with Eddyâs second uncle, and their relationship seems strong. We canât offend her. Once Eddyâs second uncle takes over both markets, we can bring up this matter again and exaggerate it. If he still likes Daphne, then weâll be lucky. We might be able to use her to get revenge. But ifâ¦â
At that point, Howard paused for a long moment.
Then, he closed his wizened eyes and said, âIf he doesnât like her anymore, weâll have to think of another way.â
Jane didnât understand much about business, but she was skilled when it came to flattering people. âAlright, I got it. Iâll definitely get close to Daphne.â
When Daphne got home, she received a call from her manager.
Her manager sounded very anxious on the phone. âDaphne, did you make Mr. Morrison unhappy?â
After her bout of rage before, Daphne got immediately mad at her manager, speaking rudely. âDo you think Iâm crazy? Why would I cause trouble with him for no reason?â
The manager touched his nose. âDonât get mad just yet. Something weird is going on. I just notice from the company to schedule a few dozen roles for you. I thought they would be Yoes, but when I checked, theyâre all background characters.â
415 BONOS He paused before continuing, âAnd you know whatâs the worst part? Many of those reles require you to get in the water. The company even said that youâll be penalized according to the contract violation rates if you decline the roles.â
The manager didnât know who could have given the order if it wasnât Mr. Morrison.
Daphneâs expression changed when she heard her managerâs words. After a second, she gritted her teeth and said, âI know who did it!â
It had to be Sean Yates!
Her company was under the Morrison Corporation. Sean must have felt that blacklisting her from the bridal boutique wasnât enough to sate his anger. That must be why he had made the company force her to take on so many projects.
After hanging up the call with her manager, Daphne called Charles.
Charles soon answered the phone. âMs. Dawson.â
Daphne started crying on cue. âMr. Lane, is Mr. Morrison there? Iâve gotten into a situation, and I hope he can help me.â
Charles frowned as he looked in the rearview mirror. Kirk was resting in the backseat. It was obvious that he wouldnât want to talk to Daphne.
âYou can tell me instead, Ms. Dawson.â
Daphne chewed her lip. She would still rather talk to Kirk, but she was only the fake Mrs.
Morrison, so she had no choice.
Sounding aggrieved, she said, âAlright, itâs like this. I accidentally offended a friend of Mr. Morrisonâs.
He suddenly had many background roles shoved at meâ¦â
Once Daphne finished speaking, Charles said neutrally, âI think you must be mistaken about Mr.
Yates These roles were arranged for you by Mr. Morrison.â
Daphne was violently taken aback. She nearly bit straight through her lower lip âWâwhy?â she asked âMr Morrison says that you have to practice your acting skills. He doesnât want people to say that only getting roles because of him. That would be bad for the Morrison familyâs reputation touched her stinging lip. She could only say sweetly, âAlright Please tell Mr. Marrison âOkay,â Charles replied. He then cut off the call. After hanging up, he couldnât help but feel the urge to laugh.
From the backseat, Kirk said indifferently, âLaugh if you want to. If you get hurt from holding it in, you wonât be able to claim it as a work injury.â
Just like that, Charles burst out laughing.
