Jilted Bride 83

Chapter 83

No one believed a guy from the slums could write anything worthwhile. Amid countless online attacks, Kevin chose to jump to his death on the day the movie premiered.

And this wasn't just connected to Elliot. It also had everything to do with Sungate Entertainment, Emily, and the rest of them.

They knew full well where Elliot got the script, yet they twisted the truth, turning lies into reality. All the online drama was orchestrated by Sungate Entertainment, just to stir up hype. Ophelia said, "Kevin, do you trust me?"

Kevin turned his head to look at her, his eyes curving into a smile. "Of course I trust you."

"Then take your current project and leave Elliot. Come work with me."

Kevin was stunned. He thought Ophelia was just going to give him some words of encouragement. He didn't expect this.

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Kevin no longer treated her as just a kid. He agreed without hesitation. There was no comparison. In his heart, the scales had already tipped toward Ophelia. Two days later, Kevin left Elliot's company.

Someone asked, "Mr. Ashford, Kevin's gone. What are we going to do about the script we were supposed to work on with Sungate Entertainment?"

Elliot scoffed, "Don't worry. He will come back in no time. He still writes everything by hand, so getting our hands on his work is easy. Even if he leaves, he won't escape my grasp." Over the years Elliot had come up with plenty of ways to keep Kevin under control.

That afternoon, Ophelia brought Kevin to Silverline Media.
