Chapter 285
That physique wasn't common among male celebrities.
In the next second, Charles punched Samuel, yelling, "While others speak, you only spout nonsense!"
Samuel was surprised by the sudden violence. Charles's speed indicated considerable training. The punch landed squarely, causing Samuel to yelp and stagger back. The film crew watched in stunned disbelief.
"What's happening? Charles, youโ"
The punch didn't quell Charles's fury. Skylar was his and Steven's younger sister, and he was seething at Samuel's derogatory remarks.
"Charles Sullivan, are you insane? You're asking for trouble!"
Samuel lunged forward, but others quickly intervened.
Charles's eyes blazed with rage. "Think before you speak! Otherwise, I'll quit this industry and make you regret it!"
His fierce determination shocked everyone. Usually friendly, gentle, professional, and respectful, this was the first time they'd seen him lose his temper.
Charles had thrown his full weight into the punch. Fortunately, Samuel dodged it, only receiving a blow to the shoulder instead of his face.
"You defend her now, but you'll be proven wrong! Do you think she's decent?" Samuel retorted furiously. He found Skylar's involvement with her "boy toy" shameless. A car costing over ten thousand dollarsโSkylar was being played, he thought.
Charles was infuriated. "Do you think you're a saint? Your acting is sickening! Working with you requires serious mental preparation; I had to imagine you were someone else! Look in the mirror before insulting others!"
Samuel had disrespected Skylar, and Charles had no intention of maintaining any pretense of respect. They were in the same industry, but that didn't matter now.
Samuel flew into a rage, as if an embarrassing truth had been exposed. "Charles Sullivan, I'll kill you!"
They charged at each other. Despite two people trying to restrain him, Charles, with his country upbringing and untamed spirit, managed to land several kicks.
Samuel, bearing the marks of the fight, trembled with impotent rage. His earlier threats now seemed ludicrous.
"Let's see who kills who! With your skinny build, I could take you down with a few punches!" Charles's eyes gleamed savagely, like a predator eyeing its prey.
Samuel and the others were taken aback by the intensity. It was clear to everyone that Samuel had pushed Charles too far.
