My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Emelia shrugged. “Mr. Washburn, you are an experienced actor. You must know many actors became popular because they played jerks. For example, there’s been widespread condemnation of Joffrey in Game of Thrones but the actors got a hit.”

However, whatever Emelia said, Thomas remained unwilling to play this role.

“No. I just want the leading role.” Considering the video, Thomas said in a firm tone.

Julian’s face darkened. “Thomas, for the record, Yvonne knows you are sitting here and negotiating with us.”

“If you keep the video rather than hand it to us, you will be in trouble and danger.”

Julian was telling the truth. Yvonne and Eric would do whatever it took to get this video and destroy it. If Thomas were not cooperative, he might well be killed.

Julian investigated Eric and found that Eric lived abroad all year round. Although Eric looked like a gentleman, he was very ruthless. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked Yvonne to fall downstairs herself.

However, Thomas turned a deaf ear to this and thought that Julian was trying to frighten him. Thomas stood up angrily and said, “Mr. Hughes, now that you don’t agree, I should go now.”

“Miss Jones has been charged with an alleged assault. Both she and Vincent will be ruined, and so will this TV show!” That was what Julian and Emelia were worried about.

“You know Emelia is innocent, but you take the opportunity to threaten us. Such a miserable man will never have any prospects.” Julian was being cryptic. In other words, Julian would ban all directors from hiring Thomas.

Julian even planned to deprive Thomas of the secondary character.

“How dare you!” Thomas flushed, turned around, and left angrily.

Julian stared at Thomas and sneered, “He will pay a price for what he did.”

Probably Eric was waiting for Thomas on his way back. And Thomas would be caught soon.

Thinking of this, Julian called Maisie and asked her to follow Thomas’s car.

Few people knew that Maisie was good at fighting. Eric’s people might look down upon her and beat Thomas. And then Maisie could collect evidence.

Thus, Julian remained calm even though the talk broke down.

Julian didn’t get the video from Thomas, but Julian would protect Emelia from anything that might come away. Anyway, Julian didn’t mind launching the military.

Thomas angrily left the cafe and drove back to his residence.

It had been a long time since Thomas played the leading role last time. Thomas got increasingly anxious when his rivalries became increasingly popular.

Thomas thought he could get the leading role with the video, but Julian was so firm that he did not compromise at all.

If so, Thomas decided to do nothing but wait and see.

After parking the car in the underground parking lot, Thomas got out of the car and locked the door before walking toward the elevator without looking back.

Nevertheless, three burly men suddenly appeared and surrounded Thomas from different directions. Thomas was startled.

Julian had warned Thomas of this just now. However, Thomas thought no one dared to hurt him in broad daylight and that Julian was just frightening him…

“What are you doing?” Thomas took out his mobile phone while backing away, intending to call the police.

Nonetheless, that was what the burly men were waiting for. They guessed Thomas saved the video on his mobile phone.

One of the burly men had a baseball bat in his hand. As soon as Thomas took out his mobile phone, that man slammed the bat at Thomas’s head, trying to knock Thomas out.

Thomas had played many roles in action films, so he was somewhat agile. He tried his best to dodge the bat, but he was hit on the back.

Thomas was knocked to the ground at once, and so did his mobile phone. One of the burly men immediately leaned over and tried to get the phone.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

If Thomas had been hit on the head, he would have died with his head broken. Only then did Thomas, who was lying face down, realize in horror that these men were here to kill him.

Thinking of this, Thomas crawled away to escape, even ignoring his mobile phone.

Just as the man was about to pick up Thomas’s phone, he heard a sharp engine acceleration. Then, a black car sped into the parking lot, heading straight for this man.

The black car rushed so fast that this burly man had to take a few steps back.

As the black car turned and stopped in front of the man, it isolated him from the phone. After the door opened, Maisie got down, quickly picked up the phone, and put it into her pocket.

The men all got nervous. After looking at each other, they rushed towards Maisie.

When they were following Thomas, they found that they were being followed by this black car. After they saw that the driver was a woman, they didn’t take it seriously.

They even dared to attack Thomas in front of Maisie.

However, when they began to fight with Maisie, they realized they made a mistake.

None of the burly men was a match for Maisie. Besides, it brought them great pain when they were kicked by her high heels.

Maisie was an expert in fighting. Her parents’ preference for sons stressed her out. Thus, she always had faith that she would never lose to men, whether it was schoolwork or fighting.

Maisie worked so hard and naturally she was a fighting expert now. Otherwise, Julian would not have asked her to follow Thomas.

Nevertheless, Maisie had to fight with three burly men. Although she managed to escape into the car and drove away after a fierce fight, she was injured more or less.

But it didn’t matter at all. Maisie was delighted that she got Thomas’s mobile phone and completed the task.
