Chapter 642 Show Love and Respect as Good Brothers Should
“Mr. Louis, for your information, Alfred loved Lottie. So should I replace him?”
Ian was surprised, “Really? Didn’t Alfred and you…?”
Connie snapped, “There’s nothing between us!”
Ian looked at Connie with distrust and then nodded. “That’s true. You can’t compare to Lottie at all.”
Although it was the truth, could he not use that tone? Connie felt hurtful.
Ian ignored Connie’s feeling and continued, “If that’s the case, then Alfred can’t stay either.”
“Okay, since the two lead actors were out, who will replace them? You and Ralph?”
Ian nodded and said, “Could be.”
Connie was incomparably shocked, “What?”
Mr. Chapman had already been a singer. Now would he enter the entertainment circle?
What does this mean? A good president had to be good at everything?
“Ralph is highly talented, and he can do everything. Acting is easy for him. Besides, since Alfred can win Best Actor award, it is a piece of cake for Ralph.”
“He and Lottie was a couple,” Ian said with conviction, “Fans love them. If they were to make a movie together, it must be a great advertising gimmick.”
“But…”
“But I have to help Ralph keep an eye on the company. Kayden can play the other lead actor.”
Anyway, Kayden and Natalia was also a couple.
Connie felt this suggestion was good. They could look for two real couples to make a movie. With their popularity, the topic would definitely go viral when it was aired.
But she felt that something was wrong with this.
As they chatted, Lottie and Ralph had returned.
Connie stood up happily. “You’re back so soon?”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Lottie said, “What? You think we’re disturbing you?”
“No,” Connie denied. When she saw Ralph entering with a few bags, she ran over happily. “Let me help you!”
Anyway, she didn’t want to continue talking with Ian.
Seeing the situation, Lottie looked at her three children.
“Can anyone tell me what just happened?”
Fabian gave her a concise and comprehensive explanation of what had just happened. Lottie touched her forehead, but at the same time, she found it a little funny.
She found that Ralph and Ian were trying to make up for each other.
Thinking about this, Lottie couldn’t help but laugh.
“What are you giggling about?” Connie waved her hand in front of Lottie and asked curiously.
Lottie came back to her senses and shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’ll cook for you guys.”
The supermarket was around the neighborhood and provided door-to-door delivery.
The groceries were delivered a few minutes after Ralph placed the order.
Lottie found out the ingredients she needed and then washed her hands, preparing to cook.
Ralph came over to help when Ian said with a slight frown, “Ralph, we need to talk. Come over here for a moment.”
Ralph paused. “Is it urgent?”
Ian nodded.
Lottie smiled and nudged Ralph to go. “Don’t make Ian wait too long.”
Ralph put down the celery in his hand and kissed her. “Wait for me.”
“Don’t bother to get back. I’m fine here.”
Lottie smiled and watched them go to the study.
When they left, Connie came over again with the bowl of instant noodles.
“Lottie, don’t you think Ian spoiled Mr. Chapman too much?”
Lottie raised her eyebrow. “Really?”
“Yes!” Connie said in the Ian-mocking tone, “She married to Ralph. Why would there be a bad luck?”
After hearing this, Lottie smiled. “Isn’t it good that they love and respect each other?”
“Well, I think he is going too far. You know what? He wants me to replace Alfred and Quy just because his brother will unhappy about them.”
Lottie smiled and shook her head. “Ralph won’t interfere with my work, nor will he mix work and personal matters together. Give him some time to know Ralph.”
“Really? Then we don’t need to change the lead actors?”
“Are you kidding me? The movie is about to shoot. How can we just make changes like that?” Lottie said, “Those actors and actresses have all passed the audition. How can we change them easily?”
If they were replaced because of a little pinprick, how would Lottie maintain her position in the industry? She would definitely be called a poser.
“You’re right.” Connie nodded, but she still seemed to have something weighing on her mind.
“Don’t mind Ian’s words.”
Lottie knew what she was thinking from her expression.
Connie always showed her feelings. It was easy to read her like an open book.
“Don’t blame yourself. You’ve tried your best.”
Connie was touched when she heard this. She hugged Lottie and asked, “Do you really think so?”
“Of course,” Lottie said, “If I didn’t believe you, I wouldn’t choose you to be my agent.”
Sometimes, trust mattered more than ability.
Lottie could go for other capable agents, but she would not trust them as she trusted Connie. Perhaps she had to worry if they would have been bribed or secretly plotted against her. But Connie would arrange everything based on Lottie’s interests. So, Lottie chose Connie.
Connie pledged her loyalty to Lottie, “Thank you for trusting me. I will work harder!”
“I believe you.” As Lottie spoke, she gave a sliced piece of fruit into Connie’s mouth.
They looked at each other and smiled.
Ralph and Ian went to study and Ralph invited Ian to sit down. He asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I want to give you some advice of replacing the lead actors.” Ralph looked up in surprise and saw the earnest gaze in Ian’s eyes.
Ian told his conversation with Connie to Ralph and expressed his worries. Only excluding all hidden dangers could he lower the risk to the bottom. Without anyone making trouble, the shooting would not be interrupted.
However, after listening to Ian’s words, Ralph firmly refused. “The actors have been decided and they will not be temporarily replaced.”
