My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 292

Old Master Fletcher didn’t know about the marriage between Sophia and Michael because he still saw Sophia as Nathan’s nanny, so he assumed that she knew a lot about Michael.

Sophia was surprised that the old man cared a lot for Michael’s work, and it just so happened that she was his fan. Therefore, she was able to answer his question truthfully as she knew everything about her idol’s whereabouts. “He hasn’t signed the contract yet, but the filming crew is now negotiating with the agency. He himself has agreed to do it, and the procedure has already begun.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The old man was extremely happy. “That is great. Tell him to hurry up and sign the contract. Remember to print a set photo for me after it is taken!”

The two of them continued playing chess while Old Master Fletcher constantly asked about Michael’s well-being. “How was the charity banquet that he and that Winston kid held? I even purposely sent Josh there to help with the security! When will that ‘Doctor Invincible’ movie be released? Didn’t he guest star in a movie recently? What movie was that? How’s Nate’s grades in school recently?”

No matter what Old Master Fletcher asked, Sophia was able to answer everything smoothly. She even knew that Nathan had grown a centimeter tall!

The old man grew excited talking to her. Even though he would usually send people to give him an update on Michael and Nathan’s recent situation, the information he got in the end still wasn’t as detailed as the ones given by Sophia. She even knew the exact grade of Nathan’s examination and the name of the girls he talked to.

It soon became dark as they chatted, so Old Master Fletcher went out to practice his Tai Chi.

Sophia and Nathan went to the guest room; they planned to stay here for two days. At first, she thought that the experience would be stressful, but Old Master Fletcher was exceptionally friendly, so all her nervousness was gone bit by bit.

After dinner, Sophia stayed in her room to play games. Suddenly, she received a surprising call.

“Sophia, why haven’t you been coming to school recently? The rumors say that the Edwards Family is bothering you. How are you? Do you need my help?”

She was now busy playing her game, and she didn’t expect Richard to call her. She didn’t stop her hands; even though her fingers were fractured, it still didn’t prevent her from playing games. She kept on playing with her thumb up as she replied to him impatiently, “Make it quick.”

Richard paused for a while before asking her concerningly, “Sophia, are you really planning on dropping out of school?”

She didn’t know where he got that information from. “I’m just taking a sick leave at home.”

He replied to her, “Sophia, you can stop pretending to be strong. I know that the Edwards Family has been bothering you. Why don’t I help you persuade Mr. Edwards? We are a family after all.”

Sophia answered, “Hmm.”

God damn it! I can’t believe that Stanley sold me out. I really want to just beat him up!

Richard continued, “By the way, Sophia, why can’t I contact that boyfriend of yours recently? I’ve already come up with a contract for him. Glory Entertainment is now lacking an actor like him. Tell him to find the time to come over and sign the contract. We are going to shoot a documentary lately, and our company is now contacting the production crew. We’ve already confirmed two actors, and I want to give Tyler the role of Mark Fletcher. That role is reserved for Taylor Murray for the time being, but we’ve already gained some momentum on the internet to force the investors to replace Taylor. As long as Tyler signs with us, we will give him the role of Mark Fletcher immediately. If he can play the role, his future will be limitless. But the people in Glory Entertainment prefer Nicholas to play the role. Sophia, I get the say on—”

Beep!

Sophia ended the call.

This is disgusting. They actually want that sissy, Nicholas, to play the role of Mark Fletcher? Don’t they know that Mark Fletcher is a hero in Cethos? How can a sissy play that role perfectly? Do they really think they can just discredit my idol like this?

She then exited the game and went to check a few famous forums. Sure enough, there was a wave of keyboard warriors discrediting Michael in an organized manner.

This time, they were mainly targeting Michael for playing the role in the documentary film. The documentary film was taken very seriously, so all of the actors were requested to have a high level of awareness. Before they shot the film, the actors were required to go through specialized political training. They also required actors who were not involved in any major scandals or misdeeds.

Before this, the keyboard warriors spread rumors about Michael being a pervert, a bully during shootings, and a person who owed a lot of people money, but in the end, all of them were proven wrong. Now, they had gotten a new idea to discredit him.

‘Taylor played a traitor before. How can we allow a traitor to play a revolutionary martyr? This is an insult to our hero! Other than that, Mark Fletcher joined the revolution at the age of 14, and he became a commander at the age of 19. The film is about Mark Fletcher’s story when he was 18 years old. How can we allow a 30-year-old man to play an 18-year-old young man?’

‘Taylor received a knighthood by the Queen of Europe, so he is definitely a foreigner. How can a foreigner play our revolutionary martyr in the film?’

‘Taylor’s mother has acted in p*rn before, so how can he play a revolutionary martyr?! Overall, I’m opposed to Taylor playing the role of Mark Fletcher!’

Sophia kept on reading the news while arguing with the people on the internet who were discrediting Michael. She pulled out her passion for playing games as she typed her words angrily with her fractured thumb up.

‘F*ck you! How is Taylor unworthy to play a revolutionary martyr? What’s wrong with being a 30-year-old man? If you have the same handsomeness as he does when you are 30 years old, you can play the role too! What’s the problem with him having played a traitor to the nation? Can’t an actor who’s played a traitor act as a revolutionary martyr? My Tay Tay even acted as a woman before! You said he is coming to an old age? My hubby is still young!’

Nathan, who was beside her, was rendered speechless.

A celebrity-obsessed woman is so crazy!

The room they were sleeping in had a sense of age because the rooms in the Fletcher residence had a long history. Even though the house had been renovated many times, the sense of age was already ingrained in the walls and air of the house.

Nathan had probably come here many times before, and he knew every inch of the room, so he opened a closet familiarly.

Sophia quickly stopped him. “Nate, don’t simply touch anything. What do I usually teach you? When you enter someone’s room, you are not allowed to touch their stuff unless you get their permission!”

Ever since Nathan was scolded for breaking Stanley’s leg, he had become more obedient lately.

He rolled his eyes and refuted, “This is the place your husband used to live before he turned 18!”

Eh? Michael lived here before? He lived in the Fletcher residence when he was young, so does that mean this was his room?

She became curious, so she opened the dusty closet. Inside the closet, the items were folded neatly and placed in different compartments. All of it was boy’s fashion, including clothes, shoes, hats and belts.

He is my husband anyway, so it should be fine for me to take a look. I’ll just put it back after I’m done.

She then happily went through everything in the closet.

Inside the closet, there were clothes that Michael used to wear before, but the style dated back a few decades. He even had a collection of military uniforms, gun models, and tank models. It was obvious that he loved being a soldier very much.

She could even find toys and musical instruments that he played when he was a kid. There was also a poster of him in a band!

She also found a lot of photo stickers. At that time, one could only get photo stickers from a photography studio, and people put them inside mini photo-frame keychains. The young Michael looked so tender, and his face was oozing with youthfulness.

She fell in love with this photo, so she consciously put it in her pocket.

Nathan caught her in the act and shouted, “Look at what you’re doing. You taught me not to touch other people’s stuff, but you are now stealing one yourself!”
