Chapter 528
"I was blind back then," Skylar stated tonelessly. She would have been fine if Samuel hadn't mentioned their past. Once he did, she felt the Williamses weren't suffering enough; after all, they still had all their limbs. They didn't need to lie in bed fearing for their lives.
Samuel widened his eyes. "I'm giving you a chance now to help me return to the entertainment industry," he said. "I'll treat you well and tell everyone you're my sister. As for Maisy, I couldn't care less if she died outside. She isn't worth it."
Skylar chuckled coldly. In the past, she merely thought Samuel was selfish and morally questionable. Now, she found him shameless and despicable. He'd sought her out repeatedly, as though he'd forgotten everything she'd told him. His requests became more extreme with each shameless occurrence.
"Fuck off."
She got into the car immediately. When Samuel realized what she'd done, he tried to open the backseat door and climb in, but he was too late; Skylar had locked it.
Samuel glared at Skylar, his face twisted in anger. He roared, "Skylar, get out! What did you say you wanted me to do? If you're willing to help me, I could treat you like I did Maisy. Wasn't that all you wanted? I can agree to that right now. Isn't that enough? Peter and Kenny will treat you as well as I do. Right, Mom has been saying we've wronged you, and she wants to make up for it. If you come home, we'll treat you like a princess. Won't that do?"
Skylar stepped on the gas, jerking the car forward. Samuel stumbled and fell. After realizing what happened, he punched the floor and screamed, "You hateful creature! Just you wait, Skylar! You will regret this! I'll wait for you to beg for mercy. When that happens, I won't even spare you a glance! You're not worthy enough to be my sister! You're just as cheap as Maisy! I'll make sure both of you undergo what I'm suffering through now. You'll fall even further than I did!"
The empty parking lot reverberated with Samuel's desperate screams. At that moment, someone approached to get their car. Seeing a man punching the ground like a madman, they stopped to watch. However, they recognized Samuel.
"Wasn't this the actor who starred in 'The Girl Who Loved Me'? Why is he throwing a tantrum here?"
"Didn't you know his family has been embroiled in a scandal? There were scandals surrounding him as well. The entertainment industry must have cast him out. Is he doing this because he couldn't accept the change in his status?"
"One wouldn't recognize him if they weren't looking closely."
They stood aside, talking about Samuel. He only realized he had an audience after he calmed down. Immediately, Samuel scrambled to his feet, looked down, and used his shirt to cover his face.
"I'm not Samuel Williams," he refuted uselessly. "You've found the wrong person. Fuck off, all of you! Don't take pictures!"
After the charity gala began, many items were auctioned off. The cumulative profits for the night reached ten billion. After it ended, everyone began their dinner.
Rowan approached Annie with a flute of champagne. Annie seemed distracted and hadn't noticed him. Rowan then popped out from behind her.
