Chapter 1728 A Small Celebrity
“The best life?” I asked.
“Yes.” Joseph nodded right away.
The smile on my face disappeared as I stared at him emotionlessly. “With my net worth and the Stovallfamily as my support, there’s nothing I can’t buy. If all I want is money, I can achieve it by myself. Whywould I need Ashton for that?”
Joseph was rendered speechless by my words.
However, I was not done expressing my thoughts. “Ever since he let Nathaniel go after John, it’s overbetween us. The kids are the only reasons I’m willing to give him a second chance. If he remainsstubborn, I might consider ending our marriage officially. Don’t ever think of seeing the kids or meagain!”
“Mrs. Fuller, please calm down…” Joseph did not know how to react to my sudden rage.
I stood up abruptly and cast a hard look at him. “I’m not joking, and I am no longer the same Scarlettfrom ten years ago. If he dares to push me away, I will never accept him again.”
Upon saying that, I stomped my way out.
Ashton, let’s see how long you can endure this.
The moment I opened the door, I ran into Rebecca, dressed up amorously.
“Why are you here?” A sense of disgust rose within me right away. Even though I was aware of hersecret past, I could not hide my resentment for her.
Rebecca let out a chuckle as she lifted her head and stared at me as though she was looking at aclown. “Haven’t you heard about it? Starting today, the entire entertainment resources under FullerCorporation belong to me. Ashton has decided to support me.”
It was normal for rich tycoons to hook up with female celebrities. In other words, a female celebritybelonged to whoever supported her financially. That was an unspoken rule in the entertainmentindustry.
My heart went cold instantly.
Just a few months ago, Ashton had just confessed his love for me in public. Yet, now he used all hisresources to support an unpopular artist like Rebecca. Is he taking me as a joke?
Sometimes, things would never get back to the way they were.
This time, he had crossed the line completely.
Since he decided not to involve me in his plan, I figured I could react in whatever way I wanted.
If that’s so, I have no reason to watch my husband spending all the shared assets on a worthlesscelebrity without any retaliation.
After pondering for a while, I cast a calm look at her. “Now I know. But…” I emphasized deliberately.“Have you signed the contract? You shouldn’t trust a verbal agreement completely.”
“Sure.” Rebecca thought I was trying to mess with her. “I’ve got both the paper and the digitalagreement. Are you planning to stop it? It’s too late!”
Before I could respond to that, she spoke again. “I wonder why Ashton did not inform you earlier aboutthis. Was he worried you might interfere? Or he didn’t care about you at all. Hahaha…”
She meant that she had a more important place in Ashton’s heart than me.
Nonetheless, I had no interest in competing with her on this matter. Since the agreement had beensigned, she was officially an employee under Fuller Corporation. As a shareholder and an owner, I amobligated to take good care of her, am I not?
Even though Rebecca thought she was fully protected with Ashton on her side, her manager was wiseenough to know that they should not offend me. With that, she pulled Rebecca’s shirt nervously.“Vivian, mind your words!”
She nodded to me as well to show her good will.
For the manager’s sake, I decided to give Rebecca another chance.
Just then, Joseph came out too. He furrowed his brows slightly upon seeing Rebecca. “Ms. Larson,you’re here.”
