After Ivan found out about Lara, he was obliged to help.
That was because it was not all smooth sailing when Ivan first started out in the entertainment industry.
Back then, he wanted to bribe the director so that he could be the male lead in a TV show, but the
original female lead resigned decisively when she heard that Ivan was the male lead.
This incident hurt Ivan’s dignity.
Back then, when Lara found out about Ivan, she took the initiative to ask the director for the female
lead role, which saved Ivan from embarrassment.
Since then, the two became close friends.
Thus, Ivan came forward to help when Lara was bullied.
That was why he was hostile toward Selena, who bullied Lara.
Ivan only took the initiative to talk to Selena and praised her just now because he wanted to get to
know her. Why was she such a snob?
Lara quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ivan’s arm.
“Ivan, calm down. You’ll scare Ms. Nelson.”
“What are you afraid of? Will she dare to treat me the way she treats you? Even if Eric is here, he won’t
go against the Caldwell family just to please her. She only dares to bully you because you don’t have a
backer. Lara, don’t be afraid. If she doesn’t let you go this time, I will start my own company and let you
be the female lead. I’ll make up for all the resources that Eric took from you.”
Lara looked at Ivan gratefully and choked up slightly.
“Thank you, Ivan.”
Before Ivan could comfort her, Selena could not help but laugh.
“If I had known this was your purpose, I would’ve cooperated with you. You just want a rich fool to back
you up, right? You even acted for this rich fool. Lara, it’s a pity that you didn’t win the Best Actress
Award. Your purpose isn’t to apologize, but to find a successor, right?”
Selena spoke too bluntly, which hit the nail on its head.
Lara’s face turned pale with a bit of embarrassment and grievance. She looked like she was on the
verge of crying.
Ivan understood what Selena was saying, but he did not believe in her nonsense.
“Don’t try to sow discord between us. I can tell that Eric must have been befuddled because of you. At
first, I didn’t want to tell you for fear of hurting your feelings.novelebook.com Don’t you know why Eric
came here today?”
Ivan had a smug look on his face.
The mockery in his eyes was undisguised.
Ivan wished he could peel off Selena’s skin little by little so that he could see her panic and fear. Would
she still be so stubborn then?
Lara, who was beside him, could not help but step forward and frown.
“Stop talking. It’ll hurt Ms. Nelson’s feelings.”
Lara’s pretentious behavior was annoying and ridiculous.
Selena did not know how such a middle-aged actress could be such a fake b*tch.
Perhaps Lara was the original fake b*tch.
Lara and Ivan pushed their narrative.
Ivan was unreconciled when Lara said that, so he wanted to see Selena’s downfall.
“Hurt her feelings? It’s about time she knows that she’s not the best person out there. Ms. Nelson, you
shouldn’t take a man’s word so sincerely. Don’t you know that Eric is just playing with you? The
purpose of today’s banquet is to set up my sister with Eric.”
Seeing Selena’s slightly frozen mouth, Ivan became even more smug.
“By the way, don’t you know who my sister is? You should have heard of Taylor Caldwell, the heiress of
CK Corporation. Her net worth is at the top of the Forbes list. A sl*t like you who asks for money after
you sleep with Eric certainly can’t compare to her. So, I suggest that you know your place.
novelebook.comDon’t think that you have all the power just because you’re with Eric. Eric is not a fool.
Did you think Eric regretted Nicole leaving back then because of love? It’s only because he couldn’t
stand the thought of losing the power that the Stanton family could bring him. Has he ever talked to you
about marriage after dating you for so long? I doubt it. In the end, Eric will only marry a woman from a
well-matched family, which is my sister, Taylor.”
The arrogance and smugness in Ivan’s eyes were obvious.
Even though Selena was mentally prepped, she was inevitably shocked when she heard these words.
A sharp pain rose from the soles of her feet and spread to her limbs. Selena seemed calm, but her
heart clenched involuntarily.
Selena’s breathing sank slightly. She did not want to fall into Ivan’s trap.
Thus, she curled her lips into a smile. The corners of her eyes slightly raised. She looked at Ivan with
an icy coldness.
“I remember that Ms. Caldwell is already engaged. Why is she interested in Eric now? Since you’re so
confident in the marriage alliance between your families, why are you still looking for me? Wouldn’t it
be enough to ask Ms. Caldwell to persuade Eric? It’s a simple matter and just a matter of words for
Eric. It’s useless for you to lure and threaten me here. You want me to stoop to compromise and be
grateful? First, look in the mirror. Even Eric has no right to make me compromise, so who the hell are
you two to boss me around?”
Ivan’s expression suddenly changed.
“Don’t be ignorant! When my sister marries Eric, she can crush a woman like you to death if she wants
to!”
“Why wait till she’s married? Can’t she do it now? Is the title of Eric’s fiancee not as great as Eric’s
wife? Does she need to bear the humiliation and wait until she gets married? But I think that you two
are ridiculous. Even if Eric is married, will he be devoted to Ms. Caldwell? If Ms. Caldwell was so
charming and capable, she wouldn’t have gotten engaged to another man so quickly, would she?”
Selena chuckled, but the sharpness in her eyes did not dim.
She had calmed down.
The turmoil in her heart just now was temporary.
Now, she could completely control her emotions.
Selena would not be confused by a few words from others.
Ivan turned pale with anger.
Of course, Ivan knew the reason why Taylor got engaged to another man so quickly. Originally, Mr.
Caldwell wanted to find a partner for his daughter.
Taylor was also interested in Eric.
However, for some unknown reason, Eric suddenly sent a message to Mr. Caldwell and even
introduced him to a young man from a well-matched family.
What Eric implied was self-evident.
At that time, the Caldwell family was a mess. Taylor was so sad that she did not eat for several days.
In the end, she could not help but go to Eric’s office and came back soon after.
From then on, Taylor obediently got engaged to another man as if she had really accepted her fate.
However, Ivan knew that his sister should not be like this.
Ivan asked someone to inquire about it. Apparently, Eric’s woman was jealous.
The netizens’ praise for Eric and Taylor being a good-looking couple made Eric’s woman upset.
Thus, in order to please that woman, Eric chose to sacrifice others.
Ivan was very dissatisfied with Eric.
Ivan was not Taylor’s biological brother. He was an orphan sponsored by the Caldwell family.
The reason why Ivan got adopted into the Caldwell family was that Taylor’s mother could not give birth
again. novelebook.comTo comfort her, Mr. Caldwell brought back the orphan who he had been
sponsoring in the countryside.
Ivan knew his place and that the Caldwell family fortune belonged to Taylor. Thus, he would not fight for
it.
The Caldwell family did not treat him badly either.
Ivan took care of Taylor’s parents since the two of them were very generous to him.
If Ivan wanted to enter the entertainment industry, they would pave the way for him, and they would
never be stingy when spending money.
Ivan had long regarded himself as a member of the Caldwell family.
Thus, he would not allow anyone to bully Taylor.
