Own Fate novel Chapter 455

Chapter 455

The mini drama had caused Trevor a terrible mood. If his TV series had aired as planned, there wouldn’t be any issues. The problem was that he suddenly switched to a live broadcast model, which inevitably made people suspect he was trying to steal the spotlight from the trending mini dramas.

People, normally, wouldn’t think much of it if it were in the past. But mini dramas were now at their peak in popularity, and were tied to Aubree. Even those who weren’t Trevor’s fans knew that, regardless of what he said, deep down, he was unhappy with Aubree.

Competing wasn’t an issue; what mattered was the embarrassment of losing. And with rushed post–production due to time constraints, Trevor ended up in embarrassment.

Many marketing accounts jumped on it for traffic, turning his new series into a meme. They joked that even a master of the entertainment circle like him could have a disastrous flop.

If Trevor had just let it go, the fuss would have died down. However, he couldn’t swallow his pride. Whether it was hiring trolls or rallying his fans, whenever a marketing account hyped this up, they would be attacked.

But people had a rebellious streak, so after a few rounds of this, Trevor became the target of widespread mockery.

Such an outcome surprised Aubree. ‘So, Trevor has been feeling pretty stifled lately?‘ she thought. ‘It’s a good thing!”

The situation with Sophia remained unresolved. Trevor, with his personality, could maintain control and avoid mistakes when rational. However, with all his pent–up frustration, he now needed a way to vent.

Aubree grinned slyly. ‘As his dear younger sister, of course, I couldn’t bear to see my good brother stewing in anger, she thought.

There were people in Trevor’s crew who were under her arrangement. So she had someone find a way to invite Trevor out for a drink or a gathering.

After making arrangements about Trevor’s situation, Aubree received a message from Birgitte.

According to her, GrabCheap in Südlichen Strand had recently come under malicious attack. Nothing serious had happened thus far, but the attacks on GrabCheap’s servers were clearly organized and planned, which was probably just a test run. Aubree figured she had better head over there herself.

“Mr. Wilson, don’t mind me being straightforward. Our families have long been in a cooperative relationship. A marriage alliance seems somewhat unnecessary, doesn’t it?” Elizabeth said.

“Business partnerships are inherently fragile. Only a community of shared interests bound together is the most reliable relationship. Moreover, it’s my father who collaborates with you, not me,” Bryan replied.

Elizabeth had already made up her mind before she arrived. Saying this was merely to test Bryan’s attitude further.

She picked up her cup and clinked it against Bryan’s with a crisp sound, a prelude to sealing the deal.

“I agree. Now that we are the closest allies, may I know your plans moving forward?” Elizabeth said, smiling.
