Charlie didn't even look back. Ignoring the furious Theodore behind him, he just walked away.
Theodore was so angry that he nearly choked on his breath.
Meanwhile, Rebecca waited anxiously. The moment she saw Charlie return, she rushed over in a fluster. "Bro... How did it go?
*Did he give you a hard time?" Rebecca asked, her eyes scanning Charlie up and down with worry. She was anxious, fearing a repeat of the last incident in the mountains when her brother had gotten into a fight with Theodore during a reality show shoot.
Debra was also observing her son. After a thorough look to ensure he wasn't injured, she nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing his mother and sister's concerned looks, Charlie felt exasperated. "I'm fine. He wouldn't dare touch me," he
said.
Not far away, Janet had been watching the scene. Seeing Rebecca and Charlie together, she smirked mockingly.
However, Janet was more concerned with Theodore's condition. When she saw him emerge, she quickly ran over. "Theodore."
Noticing some dust on the back of his pants, Janet took out a tissue and thoughtfully brushed it off.
Feeling the movement on his backside, Theodore's muscles tensed up, especially around his rear. He instantly stepped away, putting some distance between them.
Startled, Janet hastily explained, "Theodore, your pants were dirty at the back. I...I just wanted to help you clean. them."
"Get lost!" Theodore's face darkened as he recalled the kick he received earlier. He cursed at her directly.
Not far away, a few crew members noticed the commotion. When they heard Theodore telling Janet to get lost, they looked over in surprise.
'Aren't Mr. Edwards and Janet a couple?"
'I heard Janet's child is his.
'Mr. Edwards came to visit Janet on set today.
"Isn't his attitude a bit...
They glanced at Janet as they thought but quickly averted their eyes.
Chapter 66
In the entertainment industry, many actresses dream of marrying wealthy men. While their public relationships might seem sweet, only they knew the reality of how these wealthy men treated them. Janet noticed that others were seeing the scene of her being scolded. Her expression turned slightly sour.
"Theodore, it's getting late. Do you want to go inside for a nap? I have a resting room in the set." Janet suppressed
her emotions and tried to coax Theodore with her sweetest voice.
As she spoke, there was a tinge of anticipation in her voice. Would Theodore agree? If he did, they would be alone in a resting room together. Would something happen?
Theodore looked at Janet with undisguised disgust, then abruptly turned and walked toward Rebecca, asking, "Rebecca, where's your resting room?" Rebecca was utterly baffled.
Charlie and Debra immediately became vigilant, their eyes fixed on Theodore with guarded expressions.
Not far away, Joe and the crew of Reverse Days were stunned. They glanced at Janet, then at Becky, utterly shocked. Was this a love triangle?
Everyone was thinking the same thing and couldn't help but sneak a look at Janet's face.
Realizing the spectators' gleeful looks, Janet glared back coldly, causing them to quickly avert their eyes.
Joe finally grasped the situation, feeling even more astonished. This Becky must be something else to have Charlie and Theodore, two influential figures, vying for her attention.
Thinking about Theodore's twenty-million-dollar investment and Charlie's forty-million-dollar investment, Joe felt a mix of worry and secret excitement.
He worried they might come to blows, but he also couldn't help but feel thrilled at the thought of profiting their rivalry.
from
Charlie and Theodore were jealous of each other over a woman and were competing like crazy, so much so that all
the investment was going into their crew.
With 60 million dollars in unexpected investments, their production could far exceed its initial expectations.
In that brief moment, Joe realized the true power player in their crew wasn't Charlie or Janet but this seemingly unremarkable Becky This girl was formidable.
"Mr. Edwards, Becky doesn't have many scenes in Reverse Days, so we didn't arrange a resting room for her. But if

you need it, we can arrange a room immediately.
"Mr. Edwards, please follow me. There's a resting room inside," Joe offered, cautiously inviting Theodore to rest.
As he said, Joe suddenly remembered something and hurriedly added, "By the way, if Becky needs her makeup and resting room, I can have someone arrange it right away."
A girl who effortlessly brought in sixty million dollars in investments for the crew deserved her own private résting and makeup room.
Everyone was at a loss for words.
Charlie was exasperated. He chuckled and said, "Joe, could you be any more obsequious?"
"Absolutely. Becky, if you need anything else, just let me know, and I'll make it happen," Joe responded cheerfully, looking at Rebecca with a kind and friendly demeanor, making everyone feel a sense of warmth.
Nearby staff couldn't help but snicker, and their gazes toward Rebecca became noticeably friendlier. Theodore's deep eyes seemed to hide a spark of fire as he, too, watched Rebecca.
"Becky, thank the director." The next moment, Charlie suggested.
The money was spent, so Rebecca should naturally enjoy the best, and she deserved a resting room.
Rebecca remained silent.
She looked at Charlie, feeling a mix of emotions. This was 40 million dollars, yet her brother spent it so effortlessly.
"Thank you, Joe," Rebecca said, deciding not to refuse and sincerely thanking the director.
At this moment, Rebecca's feelings were oddly in sync with Charlie's. Since the money had been spent, they should make the most of it, and there was no need to be polite to outside Joe was delighted and immediately called over a female staff member to escort Rebecca to the resting room.
Theodore's gaze shifted from Rebecca to Charlie.
Being quite perceptive, Joe quickly realized that Theodore was uneasy about leaving Rebecca and Charlie alone. Perhaps he was worried they might end up in the same room during lunch break? Thinking he had figured out the situation, Joe immediately put on a nonchalant facade, pretending he knew nothing. He simply stayed nearby to keep the investor company.
Staff member Mia led Rebecca to the resting room, with Debra and Charlie naturally following. They wanted to see

if Rebecca's resting room was comfortable and safe.
Seeing Charlie follow, Theodore frowned and almost immediately followed as well.
Janet stood nearby watching this unfold, her expression darkened.
In the end, she decided to follow them too.
Once they arrived at the resting room, Debra felt satisfied, while Charlie thought it was pretty nice, and Rebecca was very pleased. The room wasn't huge, but it had a bed, a sofa, a TV, and air conditioning, almost like a hotel
room.
"This room is quite nice, isn't it?" Joe asked cautiously.
"It's decent. Alright, it's getting late. Everyone who doesn't need to be here should leave. Otherwise, the whole lunch break will be over." Charlie quickly turned around, shooing the large group out of Rebecca's resting room.
He was especially annoyed by Theodore and Janet being in Rebecca's private space.
