Free Web NovelChapter 149: Celebrity / 2.15 : Leverage
Yinglun came out of the car and entered Zhao Agency holding a bag. She got into the elevator with a smile. Since the Christmas dinner, she can feel that Sicheng is upset but she doesn’t understand why. She’s a little worried Atlas might’ve said no.
But she’s done being patient she’s going to tell him to use his contract with the agency as leverage. Sicheng said he would do anything to save her so it’s time. She knows now what kind of person Atlas is since she asked Yishang.
She came out of the elevator and smiled at the receptionist. Yinglun entered Sicheng’s office without knocking with a smile and closed the door behind her. She put the bag of food on his desk and said:
"Hello sweety, I brought your lunch. I made it myself."
Sicheng grabbed the bag with a smile and said:
"You shouldn’t have that’s why the chef is there for. You should rest."
"You’ve done so much for me it’s the least I can do."
"I told you it’s no issue."
Yinglun took a seat and asked:
"Did you receive a call from the hospital about the waiting list?"
"No, I’m sorry it’s still the same."
Yinglun asked:
"Did Atlas refuse when you asked him to be a donor?"
When Sicheng looked at her surprised she smiled gently.
"I had a feeling he was a match from the way you were talking about him."
Sicheng said:
"He refused."
Yinglun looked down sadly and murmured:
"Then I guess I’m out of time."
Sicheng held her hand and said:
"I’m sorry I did everything I could, we can only hope the hospital calls us with good news."
When Yinglun cried and she saw that Sicheng was still not offering to threaten Atlas she asked:
"Didn’t you say that you would do everything to save me?"
Sicheng nodded and tightened the hold he had on her hand.
"Of course."
Yinglun said tentatively:
"How about you use Atlas’ contract at the agency as leverage? He still has two years left with the agency right?"
Sicheng asked:
"You think I should threaten to destroy his career if he doesn’t give you his kidney?"
Yinglun stood up and sat on his lap, she circled his neck and said:
"It wouldn’t be a real threat since he’ll do it. Yishang told me that he was desperate to become an actor so if you tell him you won’t book him for anything else he’ll immediately agree."
Yinglun forced herself not to smile when she saw that Sicheng seemed to be pleasantly surprised by her plan. He smiled and said:
"I’ll do that it’s a good idea."
Yinglun’s eyes lit up. She insisted:
"Make sure you talk to him today so I can have the surgery as fast as possible."
Sicheng kissed her and said:
"I will don’t worry."
Having accomplished what she had to Yinglun decided to leave.
"I should let you get back to work I’ll see you at home."
Sicheng smiled and looked at her leave. When she was gone he opened his computer again and looked at the DNA test. He swiped everything that was on his desk in rage. For more than fifty minutes he destroyed everything he could get his hands on in rage.
When he was done he sat on his chair breathing loudly. Every single thing that woman ever said to him was a lie. She dared to put his child in an orphanage when he told her that he would never do that to his child seeing how difficult his childhood was in foster homes.
He’s seen the article Shuyuan sent him regarding the orphanage. Not only was Atlas abused there but it was the same in Yishang’s house. Atlas was right he is just like everyone else he tried to use him. Even if he gave up on the plan a long time ago it’s still the reason he approached him. ƒrēewebnovel.com
But he gave up and decided that he would adopt him, he even had the paper ready and he was going to ask him after dinner at Christmas if he would agree. Sicheng closed his eyes. Now he understands why he felt this strong bond and this need to protect Atlas from the world.
Atlas is his son, they share the same DNA. What kills him the most is that Atlas knew why he approached him but he still wanted to have a relationship with him. But at the dinner, he felt like he chose Yinglun over him.
When Atlas left the table he ran after him because he felt this fear that he was going to lose him for good when Atlas believed it was because he was sure he wasn’t going to help Yinglun.
He doesn’t want him to help her, he’s going to deal with her and then make sure Atlas forgives him for being such a terrible father. He’ll spend the next 50 years earning his forgiveness if he has to. But first, he needs to deal with Yinglun. Sicheng" eyes flashed cruelly.
Atlas walked in and went to get ready. He sat on the chair using his phone while they did his make-up and styled his hair. He feels better than he did after having some time to reflect.
He knows now that he shouldn’t have any hope when it comes to parent figures no matter what the universe. It’s all his fault anyway he got closer to Sicheng when he knew why he bought his contract in the first place.
When he is done shooting The Emperor’s prisoner he’ll buy it back and work in a new agency. When someone stood before him he looked up.
"Hey."
Atlas smiled.
"Hey."
Dawei said:
"I just wanted to make sure you’re okay. You left so fast at dinner, you looked upset."
"I’m okay it was just a lot, I didn’t think I would be followed by paparazzi and fans 24/7 like that."
Dawei said:
"I understand."
"How can you? They never acknowledge you. You’re lucky."
Even if it sounded like a dig the room felt like Atlas didn’t mean it viciously.
Dawei’s hand tightened into a fist. Soon he’ll be the one everyone will want a picture or a quote of. He doesn’t even get why they’re so obsessed with someone as boring as Atlas.
He asked:
"I’m glad you and Xinyu reconciled."
Atlas nodded. Dawei asked:
"Do you love her?"
Atlas’s eyes softened and he nodded with a blush.
Dawei smiled, now he knows for sure that Atlas loves her. He said:
"I’ll let you get ready."
"En."
Atlas looked at him leave and sneered. He never met someone as predictable as Dawei. It’s time to destroy Xinyu anyway so he can have her.
