Chapter 96: Rival

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Audrey wasn’t someone who could show kindness to anyone. Linda had previously lured her into the abyss step by step. How could she still help Linda when she was down and out?

What a joke.

Sensing the coldness and alienation in Audrey’s words, Tina couldn’t say anything else. However, before hanging up, she still pleaded, “No matter what, Miss Audrey, if you find out about Linda’s whereabouts one day, please tell me immediately.”

Audrey threw her phone aside and continued memorizing her script.

During dinner, Audrey, who had just come downstairs, was surprised to see that Charlotte, who rarely came home, had returned. Audrey took the initiative to greet Charlotte.

Charlotte replied coldly.

[Sister is so beautiful!]

The long-awaited bullet screen immediately appeared above Audrey’s head.

Charlotte was stunned for a moment. Although she didn’t have any feelings for this stepsister of hers and even had quite a bit of conflict with her before, she still felt very pleased when the other party kept praising her for being good-looking.

But then again… Charlotte couldn’t help but glance at the top of Audrey’s head.

What’s with the bullet screen above Audrey’s head? Why did it appear for no reason? This didn’t exist in the past.

Charlotte had always thought that there was something wrong with her eyes. She had even thought about going to the hospital to get her eyes checked.

However, on second thought, Charlotte decided to forget it. Audrey was just a small fry to her. How could she easily get her to go to the hospital for treatment?

Besides… It seems rather interesting to occasionally look at the bullet screen above Audrey’s head.

Charlotte smiled calmly.

Tonight, the entire family was at the dining table. Of course, Gary was very gratified. Thinking of Eric’s sudden impulse last time, Gary couldn’t help but ask, “Eric, how’s your filming going recently?”

Why was this old man asking him so much about filming recently? Confusion flashed across Eric’s mind. Thinking about how his mother had bombarded him with calls yesterday and asked him why he didn’t go to the company to work, Eric couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

“It’s alright,” Eric replied perfunctorily.

Gary had also received Amanda’s message yesterday.

Ever since Amanda found out that Eric had inexplicably stopped working at the company and was still staying in the entertainment industry to continue developing his directing career, she had been furious. She had been calling Gary for a few days to annoy him and ask him to arrange a seat for Eric at the company no matter what.

Of course Gary knew what Amanda was thinking.

Gary had already decided in his heart that Abner was the only heir of the Lance Family. Of course, he could arrange for Eric to work in the company like he had arranged for Charlotte, but it was only work.

The children were fighting over the family assets. This was the last thing Gary wanted.

However, Amanda had been pestering him non-stop. Gary was annoyed and worried that this matter would affect his relationship with Eric. That was why Gary had tentatively asked Eric about filming at the dinner table tonight.

What Gary wanted was for his family to live in harmony. He would never let this happen!

Charlotte was usually an extremely sensitive person. Seeing her father suddenly ask about Eric, she could not help but feel alarmed. Oh no! Could it be that her father was still thinking of arranging another position for Eric in the company?

Ever since she found out that Eric wasn’t going to work at the company, Charlotte was overjoyed.

Charlotte’s mother, Fiona, was a career woman. Even though she had already divorced Gary, she still believed that women should have their own career.

Fiona strongly supported Charlotte to fight with Abner for the position of the Lance Family’s heir.

Charlotte had been competitive since she was young. She also felt that she should sit in the position of the head of the Lance family.

But from what Gary had just said… did he want Eric to work in the company again? No, definitely not.

Eric not going to work at the company was equivalent to quitting the circle of competitors for the Lance Family’s heir. Now, Charlotte’s only competitor was Abner.

If Eric, this sloppy guy, entered the company again, it was hard to guarantee that he would not be a threat to her in the future..
