Bogus Billionaire

When Eddy had arrived at the underground parking lot of Morrison Corporation this morning, he had been railed into another car by two people. After a bumpy ride, he had arrived at this place At first, he had thought they were trying to rob him. But unexpectedly, they hadn’t mentioned anything about that. After throwing him out of the car, they had begun beating him up.

They had hit Eddy so many times that he had felt his head give out. Halfway through, he hadn’t been able to take it anymore and passed out. That was how he had ended up like this when he woke up.

Eddy turned his head and finally saw a glimmer of light in the darkness. It looked like a phone.

He moved his hands with difficulty, and it took him more than three minutes before he finally grabbed the phone. Using all his strength, he dialed Thomas‘ number.

Thomas quickly answered the phone. He seemed to be in a room full of people. “Hello? What’s the matter, Eddy?”

“Dad… Help me Thomas was silent for a moment, and then Eddy heard his voice again. “Eddy, where are you?”

But he had already exhausted all his strength.

When Thomas didn’t get an answer from Eddy, he panicked. He quickly walked out of the private room to look for him.

Fortunately, Eddy’s phone still had a signal. Morrison Corp’s employees quickly found Eddy using his phone signal.

When Thomas saw his son barely alive, he nearly passed out from anger. He quickly had people take Eddy to the hospital and sent someone to investigate his assault.

The next day, Caroline learned about Eddy’s hospitalization from Gwen “He seems to be in a serious condition.” Gwen couldn’t bring herself to laugh this time. Although Eddy was despicable, she still had some sympathy for him.

“I heard from the doctor that they had spent all day trying to save him. He was transferred to the general ward this morning. I wonder who was brave enough to attack Eddy.”

Caroline put her tablet in her bag and said, “I guess things are pretty bad for him. I remember he got beaten up not too long ago too.”

“Yeah, he’s not having a good time.”

Gwen shrugged and changed the subject. “Carol, are you going to see Aunt Mary today?”

“Yeah, I’m guessing we’ll never meet again after this.”

“Don’t be so negative,” Gwen advised.

“If you want to see her, you can always visit the country she lives in.”

Caroline smiled at her words. Marietta didn’t want her to suffer, but she also didn’t wish for Marietta to suffer from being caught in the middle.

This was the best possible scenario for them. Marietta should leave at the best possible time.

“Do you need me to come with you?” Gwen asked worriedly after not hearing a response from Caroline.

“Of course you can, provided that you’re free.”

They were going to an audition. There should be many handsome guys, so Gwen should enjoy it very much.

Sure enough, Gwen said merrily, “Okay, sure! I want to see some hot guys.”

Caroline smiled. She went out to meet Gwen, and they went to the audition together.

This casting call was open to the public. When Caroline and Gwen arrived, they saw a long queue waiting at the door.

“There are so many people.” Gwen nearly passed out with joy when she saw the street filled with beautiful women and handsome men.

“Let’s go in.” Caroline was worried that Marietta was already waiting inside. So, she dragged Gwen through the crowd and walked into the venue.

On the third floor, Caroline saw the office of the screenwriter that Marietta had introduced to her.

The screenwriter had a very poetic name. Rosalind Winslow.

Caroline was about to knock on the door when she heard the sound of high heels clacking sharply
