Chapter 674 If You Play with Fire, You Will Get Burned
The "Raging Sea" TV series crew was on set, and Evelyn played a bullied character in a supporting role.
Probably because Evelyn had no background or connections, no one knew she was once the illegitimate daughter of the Cunningham family. After all, she always believed in forging her own path.
So, over the years, Evelyn had remained unnoticed in the entertainment industry, with no one paying attention to her or promoting her.
However, because she looks quite good, a few people had tried to sleep with her, only to be either rejected by Evelyn or scared off by her crazy actions.
As a result, she offended quite a few people in the entertainment industry.
This person was the lover of someone Evelyn had offended and was deliberately retaliating against her.
"You're too much," After several interruptions in filming, Evelyn grabbed the hand that was about to slap her and spoke in a deep voice. "Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
The other person sneered. "So unprofessional? Acting requires real hits. If I don't hit you, how will your acting skills improve? A supporting role dares to argue with me?"
Evelyn went to the director to reason, but he didn't support her because the other person was the lover of an investor.
"Alright, are you filming or not? If not, we'll replace you," The director said angrily.
Evelyn bit her lip and turned to leave.
"If you don't film now, I'll blacklist you from the entire industry!" The director said in a deep voice, thinking Evelyn was being unreasonable.
Evelyn looked back at the director.
She chose this industry purely because she liked it, but if it disappointed her too much, she wouldn't mind switching fields.
So, Evelyn saw a half-eaten box of food left by some employee, picked it up, and dumped it on the woman's head right in front of the director. "You really are two of a kind."
"Evelyn!" Immediately, a sharp scream echoed through the studio, and the woman was furious.
Evelyn glared and soon saw a luxury car pull up outside. Karen got out in a panic and rushed towards Evelyn. "Evelyn, Mom finally found you."
Evelyn frowned and looked down at Karen. "Who are you? Did you walk onto the wrong set? Crying in the wrong place?"
Evelyn was in a bad mood, and Karen was just unlucky.
Karen quickly explained, "Evelyn, I'm your mother. I'm your biological mother. You are the eldest daughter of the Wilson family."
At this moment, not only was Evelyn stunned, but the crew was also shocked.
Didn't Evelyn say she was an orphan? How did she become a heiress?
Of course, they knew Karen, the chairman of the Wilson Group, a very powerful person.
The director quickly approached to curry favor. "Ms. Wilson, what brings you here? Is Evelyn your...?"
"Daughter," Karen said in a deep voice, giving the director a cold look.
Outside, reporters had already rushed in.
Karen's purpose was not only to bring her daughter home but also to publicly declare her motherly love and the fact that she had found her daughter.
Indeed, she didn't care if the person she found was really her daughter. She didn't even need a paternity test. She just needed a tool to help her seize the Wilson family's inheritance and shares, preventing Tessa from taking them.
Evelyn frowned and finally spoke, "Are you out of your mind?"
"Evelyn, I really am your mother. This is a long story. Let's go home. I'll explain everything." Karen cried and wiped her tears, holding Evelyn's wrist in front of the reporters. "This is my daughter, my biological daughter, the true heiress of the Wilson family. I've been looking for her for six years, and I finally found her!"
Evelyn was stunned. She had seen people looking for their relatives, but never with such high-profile media coverage. This was a first for her.
In Sunshine Restaurant, Deborah was wearing a cream-colored custom suit dress, sitting across from Nolan.
"Mr. Cunningham, have you made up your mind?" Deborah was very confident that Nolan would compromise.
That he would obediently marry her.
After all, she had some connections in Kerea. If Nolan didn't marry her, neither the Cunningham Group, the Raymond Group, the Douglas family, nor Jasmine's LY would easily enter the Kerean market.
Because the business world in Kerea was completely controlled by conglomerates.
They held all the cards.
If LY wanted to develop and achieved results in the field of new energy, they must cooperate with Kerean research companies.
And ninety percent of Kerea's research groups were in the hands of conglomerates.
"Is threatening people addictive?" Nolan looked at Deborah and sneered. "I heard that the projects you got with Nexus Solutions Group and Vertex Holdings Group were also obtained through threats."
Deborah squinted her eyes and smiled. "This is not shameful in the business world. People care about the outcome, not the process."
As for how she got the projects, it didn't matter.
"Are you so confident that I will listen to you?" Nolan spoke in a deep voice.
"The heir of Kerea's top conglomerate died in a maritime accident recently. The only remaining heir is the only son sent to San Fransisco for protection by the deceased heir."
Deborah knew very well that the man named Xavier, who was currently studying in San Fransisco, was the only heir to Kerea's top conglomerate.
"And this person must listen to me." Deborah raised her lips, clearly holding some fatal leverage over Xavier.
Nolan leaned back in his chair and looked at Deborah. "You're very smart, and as a woman, you're bold enough. But do you know why I am the president of the Cunningham Group?"
Deborah frowned. "What do you mean? What's wrong with a strong alliance?"
Nolan sneered. "I hate being threatened the most."
Nolan stood up and looked at Deborah. "Have you forgotten that although Xavier is the only male heir, the deceased Damon Powell also has a daughter? Marrying his daughter is better than marrying you, an illegitimate child."
Deborah was stunned, seemingly unable to believe what Nolan was saying. "You want to marry Amara?"
Amara Powell was a woman who publicly cheated in Kerea and even declared in front of the media that she would not marry or have children. She had undergone sterilization surgery to resist family marriages, leaving no chance for her family. So Damon chose Xavier as the heir and did not acknowledge Amara.
"You're overstepping," Nolan said coldly, raising his hand, and a waitress came over with a large bouquet of flowers. "If you play with fire, you'll get burned."
After saying that, Nolan left.
Deborah was very angry, looking at the large bouquet of white lilies the waitress awkwardly handed over.
Nolan!
