Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Edie Will Be Mine
For a long time, he was silent as if he was thinking of something. Donald’s eyes stared straight ahead at the last place that he had seen Eddie.
"Eddie is the light of my life, and I will never let her go. I remember her beautiful smile and her attractive eyes. I want to have her forever! By any means and at all costs. Eddie will be mine."
Once again, there was a certainty in his voice, "I don’t care, I just want Eddie to come back to me! She was in my life, but I can’t seem to remember the things that we did together. I believe we were a couple for about five years? I don’t understand why she stopped trying to get me to remember? How could she not love me? There has to be something that I missed?"
"But it’s too late. You and Eddie both have a new life now. If you do love her, then you need to let her go. I’m afraid for you, not to mention Eddie?" Karen said.
"I can’t! I will never let her go." Donald growled suddenly at Karen. His body shook uncontrollably, and he pounded his fists into the seat of the car.
"I will not let anyone stop me from getting her. You need to stop talking such nonsense to me, and I don’t want to hear anything like that from you again!"
Karen was frightened by Donald’s madness. He took a few deep breaths, and suddenly there was an eerie silence that filled the car. Not long after Donald seemed to be back to his usual self, he said with a smile, "Karen, you have to help me."
Karen trembled and looked at Donald in disbelief.
"I know you’re my father’s illegitimate child," Donald said.
Karen’s mouth dropped open, and then she stuttered her words, "How...did...did...you know?"
Donald smiled, and a mysterious, secretive expression came into his eyes, "I am the who has been in charge of Hawk Real Estate Co. Ltd for all these years, I have my ways. I know you can’t be recognized by the Lynch Family, so you can only be my assistant. But I do know you are my sister."
"Before my father died, didn’t you make him a promise? The promise was to help me take back the power of Hawk Real Estate Co., Ltd?" Donald took a deep breath and continued.
"The boardroom battle was so fierce. How could I deal with any of it with the state of mind that I was in?"
Karen sighed, knowing that he was only trying to get her to help him.
"Donald, you and Joanna are married, and there is no chance of divorce. If you want to keep your position in Hawk Real Estate Co., Ltd, the best way is to co-opt with the Bella Family. You need to treat Joanna with respect and take your mind off of Eddie. If you don’t, it will only add resistance to your power, and you may lose it! Eddie is married, and she loves her husband. That is the truth. You need to understand this."
Seeing that Karen wasn’t supporting him, Donald became impatient, "So what? Joanna is a bitch, and she is no longer a threat. I will get Eddie sooner or later. Even if she’s in a relationship with Stuart, I was the one who made the mistake of letting her go. I don’t care about who she is with now, and we were meant to be together."
"You are meant to be together? Do you think she feels the same way? Listen to yourself; your way of thinking is not rational."
Karen could not contain her emotions and turned her head toward the rear view mirror. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she didn’t want Donald to see.
"You’re so sick now. What’s the difference between being mad and why Eddie is blaming this all on you? Do you really think she will accept you like this?"
Donald looked at himself in the mirror. His whole body was trembling, and it was like a switch had gone off in his brain. His eyes flashed with anger, his face distorted with fury. Then he went crazy.
He grabbed Karen by the shoulder and shook her fiercely.
"Yeah, what the hell have I become? I can’t stand it! That’s why I need Eddie. If she is by my side, then only then can I be my normal self? I will give her a happy family! Even though I have forgotten the past five years, I know that I still love her!" Donald smiled and said with the utmost sincerity.
"I love her more than Stuart! She will choose me!" said Donald as he laughed wildly.
Karen looked at his smile, and suddenly she started to tremble," Donald, you have gone insane!"
Eddie left the L.N. building in a hurry because she had an important audition and also because of her embarrassment. Yolanda, one of the most famous online writers, became famous with the book Dynasty Elegy." It was her first film adaptation.
The book was about a secretary’s daughter, Sally Yale. After she was forced into the castle as a mistress, she survived the imperial power in the palace and eventually ascended to the throne and became the queen. Sally Yale suffered countless betrayals and separations in the process.
Her parents died, her lover left, and even her former best friend became a stranger. Sally Yale’s role was one of the leading parts in the movie. The popularity of the novel was very high. After the announcement of the film and the television industry had officially started casting, it was only three days after the broadcast, and it reached two hundred million viewers.
The play was a good one, and everyone knew it was going to be a hit. It only depended on who they had chosen for the leading actors and actresses. Eddie’s audition was not for the leading actress of Sally Yale. Her audition was for Yvonne Patricia, who was Sally Yale’s best friend.
The character was kind, but an unsophisticated woman. This character seemed to be popular among the fans. The ending of her role was sad as she died a tragic death.
Even though it wasn’t the main character, Eddie couldn’t believe it when she received the script. She asked Danny repeatedly, "It’s such a good role, how did you get it? Danny, did you sleep with someone for me?"
It was no secret that Danny didn’t like women, but he loved handsome men, and everyone knew it. Eddie sometimes joked about it with Danny. Danny wanted to kill her, "Then just give it back to me. I don’t need you going out and ruining my reputation!"
"I’m joking. I’m joking." frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
"I used all my resources to get you this audition. But if you keep treating me this way, then I am going to have to take it away from you."
Without Danny’s resources, Eddie knew she would have never had the opportunity to have such a role. So she had to cherish it.
Eddie’s audition was today, and she left early as she did not want to be late. When she arrived, they began to give out number cards. After Eddie got her number, there was a long wait.
This was not unusual as every audition is the same. All the actors and actresses get a number and wait in line for their turn to audition. Everyone started to arrive at around six in the morning. The first thing they needed to do is their makeup and then go to the wardrobe to get dressed for their roles.
The audition took a couple of minutes, but the waiting for the results was the worst, as sometimes it could take days. After everyone was done getting ready for their roles, they all sat down and waited. Eddie was in a good mood and sat down. She began reading the original novel Dynasty Elegy.
