Love Me Or Leave Me

CHAPTER 67

Theodore noticed that Charlie was deliberately targeting him, his eyes flashing coldly as he glared at Charlie.

Joe and the crew knew it was time to leave, so they turned and headed outside. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Theodore didn’t move. Instead, he declared, “I am her husband.”

As soon as he said that, Joe and the crew, who hadn’t gone far, were stunned. They whipped their heads around and stared in shock at the people inside the room.

Husband? What the heck?

Were they legally married? So what was that love triangle they had imagined all about?

Just then, Janet, who had been following behind, reached the door. However, she hadn’t heard what Theodore said, so she still didn’t know what was happening.

Janet naturally walked into the room and look around the lounge. After a look, her face remained calm, but inside, she was burning with jealousy.

Why did Rebecca get such a lovely lounge in the crew?

It was all because Theodore and Charlie had poured money into the production.

Two men, one spending 20 million for Rebecca, the other throwing in forty million.

What did Rebecca have to deserve this?

Why did so many people like her?

Did she deserve it?

She was just an orphan with no parents.

Janet kept her thoughts to herself. She tried to suppress her jealousy and turned to Theodore with a soft, tender expression. “Theodore, it’s getting late. We should go back and get some rest,” she said gently.

Janet knew her goal clearly.

What she wanted now was only Theodore.

It had to be him.

From the moment she was pregnant with his child and decided to keep it, she was determined to make things

official and married him.

First, because she truly loved Theodore. Ever since he woke up and saw him for the first time, she had fallen. hopelessly in love. She had to marry him.

Second, now that all the fans knew she was having his baby, she couldn’t imagine how the media and fans would react if they didn’t end up married.

She couldn’t bear to lose the man she loved or see her career fall apart. She had to be with Theodore.

Janet’s words floored Joe and the crew inside the room. Their minds raced with bewildering thoughts.

What kind of mess was this?

Was this the life of the rich and powerful?

It was all so chaotic!

When Theodore invited everyone to lunch just a moment ago, they genuinely thought he was there to visit Janet. But looking at everything that happened afterward…

Theodore suddenly invested 20 million, and Charlie invested forty million.

And now, with Theodore and Charlie in a tense standoff in the room, Theodore shamelessly insisted on staying in Rebecca’s lounge, even declaring he was her husband.

So it was clear who Theodore was really there for.

Janet truly had some nerve.

Had female stars in the entertainment industry become so audacious about being mistresses? Her manipulative schemes were practically in the legitimate wife’s face.

But that wasn’t even the most shocking part. The real question was, what was going on between Rebecca and Charlie?

A top–tier actor and a wealthy you

young lady? lady?

Oh my, there were just too many juicy tidbits today. They were struggling to process it all!

Rebecca was exasperated. She glared at Theodore, utterly baffled by what was going on in his head.

Hadn’t he been the one wanting a divorce every day before?

Now, she was

ready to part ways, too.

Then they should have divorced, gone their separate ways, and lived their own lives. Wasn’t that sensible?

Was it really just because the kids didn’t take his last name?

What a joke!

When he had threatened her with their lives, did he ever concern for the kids then?

As Rebecca thought about it, she suddenly raised her hand, ready to slap Theodore hard.

But there was no way Theodore would let her hit him.

As soon as she raised her hand, he lifted his own, ready to grab her arm.

Just then, out of nowhere, Debra kicked Theodore squarely, sending him stumbling backward.

“Theodore!” Janet, who had been standing by his side, was startled and quickly rushed to support him.

With Janet’s help, Theodore managed to keep from falling completely, saving a bit of face. But it did nothing to quell the raging fury inside him.

He thought, Kicked again! Is kicking people a family trait for the Carters? Has Charlie taught them that? Every single one of them seems to be a pro at spitting and kicking! Especially Rebecca. She’s picked up all their bad habits, too. Last time, she spat at me, and just now, she’s raising her hand. Was she really about to hit me?”

Theodore glared at Rebecca as he sneered, “Rebecca, so you insist on hanging out with them, don’t you? Just don’t forget your status. You are still a married woman!” he roared.

That afternoon, two female bodyguards appeared by Rebecca’s side. They shadowed her every move, following her wherever she went. Theodore had arranged them.

Seeing this, Debra was furious and immediately called the police.

Stalking and infringing on someone’s privacy was illegal.

News of Theodore hiring bodyguards to monitor his wife spread quickly, causing the Edwards‘ stock to start plummeting

Far away in Maeloria, Michael learned the truth and was furious. He immediately called and ordered Theodore to

return.

With Theodore gone, peace finally returned to the set.

Janet only played a cameo role and filmed for just two daw L

Without any more eyesores around, Rebecca found her time on set to be quite pleasant. She dedicated herself to learning her role, practicing every day, and continued rehearsing at home each night.

Rebecca repeatedly practiced her scenes privately, often getting guidance from Charlie, who corrected many of her mistakes.

Even Joe watched her practice and saw her performance improve from barely passable to genuinely good. When it came time for actual filming, Rebecca nailed three scenes in one day, all in one take, much to Joe’s satisfaction.

A month later, all the scenes featuring the sister character were completed. After repeatedly reviewing Rebecca’s performances, Joe grew increasingly pleased. He even felt that Charlie and Rebecca were real siblings, both on and off the screen.

Their resemblance and the way they interacted gave off a strong brother–sister vibe.

Sometimes, Joe wondered if he was imagining things.

How could Charlie and Rebecca be real siblings?

But the more he thought about it, the more he was convinced that he had made the right casting choice. Rebecca was perfect for the role of the male lead’s sister.

Joe even had a hunch that Rebecca’s portrayal of the sister might become quite popular once the show aired.
