Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 653

Chapter 653 Enjoy The Show

“What a lively scene! You guys don’t mind letting two outsiders join in the fun, right?” a voice asked flippantly. Upon hearing that, everyone at the scene turned to look at the uninvited couple.

Oscar narrowed his eyes and glared viciously at the couple.

“Amelia, we meet again! What a coincidence.” The man approached Amelia and praised, “You look so pretty today. When Jennifer and I walked in just now, we mistook you for someone else. After consulting the owner, we found out that the production team is having a celebration here. I thought since we’re already here, we should join you guys.”

Amelia glanced at him in response. He’s so lame. Why would he crash the celebration party organized by the production team?

Tiffany stepped forward and said with a superficial smile, “Mister, this is a private celebration organized by the production team. I think it’s inappropriate for you and Ms. Larson to show up here. Leave before you make everyone feel awkward, okay?”

Since she wasn’t fond of June and Jennifer, she was quick to chase them out.

At that moment, Cody and Leona merely kept quiet and stared at each other curiously.

“Everyone, since you seem to be having so much fun here, you guys wouldn’t mind having us around, right?” June asked with a polite smile.

The crowd knew only people with status were allowed in there, so none of them dared to offend the couple. Hence, they just glanced at Oscar and the others.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“Mr. Clinton, we’ve known each other for a while now, right? Heck, we might even have a chance to work together in the future. Considering that we’re already here, are you really going to chase us out without even offering us a glass or two?” June smiled at Oscar.

At that, everyone shifted their attention toward Oscar. Since they were a bunch of observant people, they could tell Oscar and June knew each other. However, the two men didn’t seem to be on good terms. Although both were equally impressive, one of them was Chanaean while the other wasn’t. Needless to say, none of them from the entertainment industry knew what conflicts the two men had.

Still, everyone’s ears perked up, and they were eager to find out more.

“Well, you’re my guests, after all. I don’t have a reason to chase you out yet, so feel free to indulge in the food provided. There’s plenty enough to feed those that come asking.” Oscar flashed a faint smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jennifer’s face fell. June, on the other hand, remained unfazed, as if he didn’t understand Chanaean.

Obviously, there was a hidden meaning behind Oscar’s words. He was implying that June and Jennifer were beggars come to ask for food.

Indeed, Oscar could be despicable and vicious with his words.

The production team was shocked. Who would’ve thought the cold and distant Mr. Clinton we know could speak so despicably? Luckily, we haven’t been stupid enough to offend him. Otherwise, we won’t last long in the entertainment industry. However, what’s with this couple? Why did Mr. Clinton humiliate them in public?

“Well, Mr. Clinton has spoken. Please forgive Jennifer and me for joining the celebration shamelessly, then.” June smiled.

Oscar said nothing in response.

Like a proper Ustranasion gentleman, June quickly blended into the crowd. Not only was he handsome, but he was also polite and well-spoken. After getting his name card, the crowd found out that he was the owner of two companies. One of his companies was an IT company that had gained plenty of attention over the past few months. Besides that, a renowned local financial magazine had also done an article on the aforementioned company where he was mentioned but no photo had been published. Now that they had seen his name card, the production team was quick to butter him up when they found out that he was one of the Adertons.

They were eager to get on his good side because they wanted his resources. With that, none of them would need to struggle for sponsorships.

Upon seeing how well June was blending in with the crowd, Julian turned toward Oscar with a glass of wine in his hand and said, “Oscar, this foreigner is quite something. When I was looking into him for you, I thought he was just an incompetent spoilt brat from the Adertons. I didn’t expect him to have tricks up his sleeves. Do you see that? He has stolen the limelight from you.”

Oscar smirked when he saw how the crowd was worshipping June. “Well, we can’t stop him from being a pretentious pr*ck, can we?”

Julian nearly spat out the sip of wine he had just drunk.

After gulping the wine down, he showed Oscar a huge thumbs up. “Nice one, Oscar.” Julian had never been aware of how vicious Oscar could be. I guess I’ll just have to wish June good luck. He’s in over his head if he thinks that he can afford to mess with Oscar. June has undoubtedly overestimated himself and underestimated Oscar at the same time.

Oscar merely took a sip of wine after hearing that.

The actors and actresses didn’t dare to offer Oscar a toast because of his imperious demeanor. Hence, they only gathered around June. The director, however, was smart enough to offer a toast to the investors, Oscar and Julian.

“Mr. Clinton, Mr. Hayes, I’ve been hoping to meet you two all this while. However, neither of you is in the entertainment industry. Now that we have finally met, I must offer you guys a toast while I still have the chance,” the director said with a smile.

The director, Steve Little, was a middle-aged plump man and a respected figure. When he wasn’t directing movies, he was a cheery person who would get along with the production team. When he was at work, however, he was a serious man. He would pay attention to every detail in the movie, and he was a perfectionist. Hence, the actors and actresses appreciated the fact that he could do well in both his job and in managing his interpersonal relationships.

With those qualities, a lot of his movies received countless awards, proving he was an extraordinary director.

Julian raised his glass and clinked it with Steve’s. With a smile, he uttered, “Mr. Little, your hard work is the reason this movie is so well-received. If I stumble upon more interesting scripts in the future, I look forward to working with you again. Cody and Leona need you to help them unleash their true potential. They told me that even though you’re strict, they’ve learned a lot from working with you.”

Steve’s eyes lit up when his passion, filming movies, was brought up. As a result, he got even more chatty. Julian was patient enough to have a conversation with him. In the end, Steve only left reluctantly after a lengthy talk.

After he left, Julian shook his head and smiled. “Mr. Little is an interesting man. He’s a man who prioritizes work-life boundaries, and he’s not interested in fame and power. Hence, he’s a social

butterfly. His filming skills were key to the success of our movie. Otherwise, I’m sure we would’ve lost our money.”

“Mr. Hayes, what do you mean by that?” Tiffany approached Julian in her pair of heels and punched him jokingly. “Are you saying that my script is trash? Have you forgotten about the fact that the movie was adapted based on my novel, and it has made you a lot of money? Not only did you not thank me, but you’re also talking badly about me behind my back! You better drink up as a punishment.”

Upon hearing that, Julian drank a mouthful of his beverage and said, “Tiffany, since you’ve dressed up like a goddess today, please act like one, okay? Please remember that Mr. Hisson is an attractive man who’s undoubtedly the focus of everyone’s attention. If you keep acting this way, others might think you’re not worthy of him.”

“Pfft! So what if he’s the focus of everyone’s attention? Derrick loves me. The others can lay eyes on him all they want, but they can’t get him. In fact, I’m the only person who can be with Derrick for life.”

In response, Julian rubbed his arms and said, “That’s so cheesy! Tiffany, you’ve gotten more shameless, haven’t you?”

“I don’t have a choice! That’s the only way to deal with you, Mr. Hayes.” Tiffany shrugged and smiled.

“Tiffany, I like how you’re always so frank and direct. You’re a good match for Mr. Hisson.” Julian chuckled.

“Much appreciated! If we get married, I’ll expect a huge monetary gift from you.”

“Of course.”

While they were chatting away happily, Jennifer was staring coldly at June as he mingled with unimportant people. When she saw him stepping away from the crowd, she pulled him to a corner and

asked softly, “June, what are you doing? Did you bring me to this private club to drink with these small- time actors and actresses? Do you have nothing better to do?”

June smiled and said confidently, “Don’t look down on these actors and actresses. They’re good at what they do. Stay tuned, okay? I’ve already bribed one of them. A good show is about to start.”

Jennifer shot him a doubtful look. “Let’s hope that’s the case. However, Oscar has his bodyguards nearby, so don’t go overboard. Otherwise, we’re not getting out of here.”

June raised his brows. “What? Are you scared? Isn’t this what you want? You want to seek revenge, no? How are you supposed to do that without taking some risks?”

Jennifer lowered her gaze, and a grim look appeared on her face.

“Jennifer, you’re just as evil as me. In fact, I doubt you can say anything to prove otherwise. Don’t act innocent in front of me, okay?” June sneered.

Jennifer sighed and raised her gaze. “What are you planning to do? You should tell me about it so that I can play along if things go south.”

“That’s not necessary. You just have to sit back and enjoy the show.”

Jennifer didn’t ask further and did as told.
