Chapter 120 The Feud Between Jonathan and Oliver
On the other side. Jonathan ended the conversation and approached Clark. Cutting to the chase, he stated. “Clark, I’ve made up my mind to proceed with the live–streaming concept you suggested previously.”
“Really?”
refusal.
Clark was surprised. Just a short while ago, Jonathan appeared firm in his What prompted this abrupt change in attitude?
Jonathan proceeded, “Yet, there’s a condition. Tomorrow’s live streaming will occur at Mr. Hawkins‘ film set. Is that acceptable to you?”
Mr. Hawkins film set?
Clark was bewildered. “What’s the reason for our sudden visit to their film set?”
Jonathan provided a brief overview of the situation concerning Stephanie.
Upon hearing this, Clark lapsed into a momentary silence, pondering to himself. The complexities within affluent families are indeed intricate.
Who could have anticipated such a profound animosity between the real and fake heiresses?
Despite harbouring his own opinions, he chose not to express them. Recognising it as a family matter, he understood he had no role to play in it.
“It’s actually a good idea. Their film set has garnered considerable popularity lately. If we attend, it might be advantageous for both sides. Moreover, I have some familiarity with him. I can inform him beforehand, potentially boosting interest in his upcoming drama. It’s a mutually beneficial scenario.
“However, I need to emphasise that Oliver is also present on that set. If you decide to go, it’s crucial to maintain a calm and composed attitude towards him. Tomorrow’s live streaming is important, and any disagreements should be handled discreetly, away from the public eye. Is that clear?”
At the mere mention of Oliver’s name, Jonathan’s eyebrows furrowed immediately, and a trace of disdain. flashed across his expression.
He had completely overlooked the fact that Oliver would also be present.
Seeing his reaction, Clark tapped the table in exasperation. Just look at yourself. If you show up tomorrow with that demeanour, not only will the fans notice, but even bystanders will pick up on it. You’ll just be handing gossip material to the media.
Jonathan shrugged with a sense of resignation and responded impatiently, “Got it. I’ll watch my behaviour
tomorrow.”
His main focus for the following day was to stand by Stephanie, thus he made a choice to disregard Oliver.
After giving a few more reminders, Clark felt assured and rose from his seat. He retrieved his phone and dialled Alan’s number.
Chapter 120 The Feud Between Jonathan and Oliver
When Oliver heard that Jonathan would be visiting his set the next day, he exploded in fury, his voice booming so loudly it nearly shook the dressing room’s ceiling.
“What? Jonathan, that br’t, is coming here? No way! I won’t allow it!”
The loud outburst startled Robin, who swiftly stood up and covered Oliver’s mouth. “Oh my goodness, keep your voice down! Are you trying to broadcast to everyone that you have a grudge against Jonathan?”
Oliver ignored him, his anger palpable, “I don’t care. He can’t come. I refusel”
Robin sighed in exasperation. “What good does it do to object? Mr. Hawkins has already given his approval. Even if you don’t like it, you have to tolerate it. Got it?”
“I don’t get it!” Oliver fumed, pacing angrily, his footsteps resounding through the room.
The
more he thought about it, the angrier he grew, unable to contain his frustration. “No, I’m going to talk to Mr. Hawkins. Either he stays in this set, or I do!”
With that, he spun around and headed for the door.
Alarmed. Robin rushed forward and grabbed his arm, urging. “I understand you’re angry, but don’t do anything reckless. Let me explain first.”
Oliver’s chest rose and fell with anger, his face clouded with fury. “Alright, I’m listening!”
Robin let out a breath of frustration and clarified, ‘Mr. Hawkins gave his consent because he sees the popularity between you and Jonathan. Once the live streaming begins, the anticipation for the new movie will soar. It would be difficult for him to refuse such an opportunity.
“I asked, and Mr. Hawkins intends to grant you and the other main actors a break tomorrow. The purpose is to generate some hype for Jonathan’s live streaming. So, it won’t just be you. There will be other actors accompanying you. It shouldn’t be too awkward, all things considered.”
Other actors?
Oliver was surprised by this revelation. “Will other actors be involved too? Is Ms. Milly among them?”
Lately, Robin had become used to Oliver bringing up Milly often.
He affirmed, “Indeed, she is the female lead, so her presence is essential.”
Upon hearing this, Oliver fell into silence, his mind racing with thoughts,
I could tolerate Jonathan stealing my resources or even my awards, but I couldn’t stand him snatching my position as the male lead!
Moreover, what if Jonathan harasses the sect leader? I must protect her.
With these considerations, he squinted and declared, “Okay, if Ms. Milly is participating, then I’m on board.”
Observing Oliver’s consent, Robin anxiously cautioned him, “Tomorrow, it’s crucial to steer clear of direct confrontations with Jonathan and to keep your composure intact. The live streaming will attract viewers from both your fan groups, and any display of anger could result in negative repercussions.”

Chapter 120 The Feud Between Jonathan and Oliver
Oliver sighed in frustration and reassured, “Okay, I get it. I’ll try my hardest.”
Robin insisted, “No, merely trying your best won’t suffice. Conflict must be avoided at all costs! I don’t want to see you becoming a trending topic on social media tomorrow, unable to evade the spotlight.
“There’s speculation of a minor event planned during the live streaming to involve fans from all sides. Given it’s live streaming, anything might unfold, so be ready to adjust.”
Oliver, already sprawled on the couch, felt drowsy as Robin persisted in speaking.
Impatiently waving his hand, he said, “Alright, I understand. I’m an experienced actor, have faith in my professionalism.”
Robin couldn’t say anything.
The more he thought about not saying this sentence, the more flustered he became.
Have faith in your professionalism?
Ha, I’d sooner believe dogs can fly.
The more he thought, the more anxious he became, and the less reassured he felt. When he left the lounge, he pondered for a moment. Just to be safe, he headed to Milly’s resting room.
Unexpectedly, the other actress, Michelle, was also present there.
Seeing them engaged in what seemed like a discussion, he quickly explained the purpose of his visit, hoping that Milly and others could assist in overseeing Oliver during tomorrow’s live streaming. After all, Oliver still seemed to listen to her.
If Oliver were to spiral into extreme reactions, he knew Milly would be the only one capable of soothing him.
Milly agreed with a smile.
As Robin exited, Milly gently shut the door, prompting a soft chuckle from Michelle. “You truly are something else. You have the power to make a top star listen to you, and even his manager come to you for
assistance.
“No surprise Stephanie was keen on collaborating with me.”
