Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau-Chapter 485 - 262: What a Formidable Blade (First Update)
She thought for a moment and still swiped her phone to answer.
"Lawrence, let me explain!" As soon as the call connected, Lucas Harlow got nervous, "The Sheldon Family is quite complicated. That day at the police station, I didn’t want things to escalate. And after I got back, I helped you settle the situation... Please don’t take it out on me, don’t terminate our manager contract, okay?"
Lawrence Winters: "..."
She hadn’t even said anything yet, and Lucas Harlow already lowered himself so much that she felt too embarrassed to brusquely draw a line.
Although her conversation with Edward Foster dispelled much of the "idol aura" surrounding Lucas Harlow, he was still her first—and only—idol, so there was still some face to consider.
She twitched her mouth slightly and said, "Lucas, I’m not taking it out on you, I’m doing it for your sake. I don’t want you to be caught in the middle."
"Why would it be difficult?" Lucas Harlow’s mood remarkably improved, and he quickly said, "I’m not afraid, nor will I be caught in the middle."
"How could that be?" Lawrence Winters twirled a pen with a slight smile, "You have an unusual relationship with the Sheldon Family, yet the big shot there absolutely despises me. Aren’t you worried he’ll keep targeting me?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"That’s impossible!" Lucas Harlow flatly denied Lawrence Winters’ speculation, "My brother-in-law is not that kind of person. He couldn’t have succeeded in such big business without credibility. He’s tough, but he keeps his promises."
Seeing Lucas Harlow’s high praise for Aiden Sheldon, Lawrence Winters couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Lucas, I heard that when Sheldon was young, he didn’t like doing business, and your sister was in charge. Is that true?"
Lucas Harlow was taken aback by Lawrence Winters’ skill in changing topics.
How did the topic shift from criticizing Aiden Sheldon to gossiping about him?
But since Lawrence Winters was willing to change the topic, Lucas Harlow was more than happy. He quickly said, "I don’t know much about these things. My sister and I have quite an age gap. By the time I was old enough to understand things, my sister was no longer in charge of the Sheldons; my brother-in-law was already the CEO and Chairman of the Sheldon Consortium."
Lawrence Winters chuckled and said, "Lucas, you’re also the child of an older father, like Kenneth’s little nephew."
Lucas Harlow’s eyes flickered when he heard Lawrence Winters refer to Kenneth Osborne so intimately. He said, "Is that so? But my sister and I aren’t that close; she was already married by the time I was born. It’s not like Mr. Osborne, who’s so close with his sister."
Thinking of Brooke Osborne, Lawrence Winters nodded and said, "Kenneth was almost raised by his sister, so your situation is indeed different. Alright, let’s not talk about this. The drama starts filming after the New Year, when will you join the set?"
"I’m joining the set tomorrow." Lucas Harlow was quite eager to see Lawrence Winters, but since Lawrence didn’t mention it, he dared not either.
After all, the rift from New Year’s Eve would take some time to mend.
...
Soon, Lucas Harlow began filming his first TV drama, which happened to be a fantasy martial arts film.
Just as Lawrence Winters and Edward Foster predicted, when they released Lucas Harlow’s initial "Senior Brother" styling photo on the official site, women all over the internet went wild.
Every day on Weibo, the topic "#LittleJuniorSisterLetGoOfThatSeniorBrother!LetMeHandleIt#" was everywhere.
The female lead was even being overlooked by everyone.
Moreover, many talented netizens started writing fan fiction and side stories just by looking at that styling photo.
Lawrence Winters laughed to the point of tears reading all these fan creations every day.
One morning, when she arrived at work, the first thing she did was check around all the company’s social media platforms to ensure there were no issues before calling Lucas Harlow’s assistant.
Lucas Harlow was filming inside a base with his assistant and hadn’t started on location shoots yet, so visiting the set was quite convenient.
Lawrence Winters wanted to ask her assistant if it was convenient to visit the set today.
Lucas Harlow’s assistant, still the same Jason, enthusiastically answered when he received Lawrence Winters’ call, "Sure, you can come over. I just happen to be taking the afternoon off. Could you bring some snacks for everyone when you come?"
"No problem, I’ll bring lots of fruit and snacks for everyone to share."
It was Lawrence Winters’ first time visiting a set, so she felt both nervous and excited.
To keep a low profile, she wore a light ash-gray hooded loose pullover hoodie, skinny pants, and a pair of white sneakers, looking like a high school girl who had just graduated.
She ordered fruit and snacks online to be delivered to the set first, signed for by Jason, so everyone could enjoy.
When she arrived, the fruit hadn’t yet arrived, but she noticed many men in black clothes and sunglasses at the filming location of the set.
They stood at the entrance with hands behind their backs, like bodyguards.
It seemed some bigwig was visiting.
Lawrence Winters walked in curiously, looking around.
A middle-aged woman in a suit immediately approached her and said, "The set is closed for the next hour. Are you a fan here to visit? Please come back in an hour."
