Chapter 157 Jepson suddenly chuckled and said coldly , Elaine , is this your way of getting back at me ? Is this Elaines way of repaying the years of my indifference or my blatant dislike for her ! Is she saying this because she regrets calling me her brother ! Jepson thought .
He seemed to finally understand why Tucker and the others had become the way they were .
Elaine had truly become toxic Jepson had never imagined that one day he would ask Elaine something like this .
It felt as if he was bowing his head in defeat , It was utterly ridiculous .
And yet , he had unknowingly done it .
He felt that Elaine was probably feeling triumphant She seemed to have succeeded .
Jepson had unknowingly found himself feeling the same way as Thicker and reached out to Elaine for confirmation .
How can I feel like this ? How absurd ? he thought .
Even though Tucker and the others might fall for Elaines little games , Jepson Yeats felt he should not .
His brothers did not understand anything .
They did not have the right to offer advice on his relationship with Elaine .
The veins on the back of Jepsons hand stood out , reflecting his rising anger .
Whos calling During the company dinner , Elaine answered the phone as Sharon silently mouthed , curious Despite the small size of the gathering , the dinner was filled with laughter and chatter .
Elaine , being a down to earth boss , was easily approachable , which made everyone comfortable around her .
The savory scent of grilled meat filled the air .
Jepson .
Elaine silently responded .
When Sharon realized it was someone from the Yeats family , she gave a disdainful look .
Elaine said casually .
Jepson , you and Bianca seem to be extremely close siblings , huh ! You even say the same things to me .
Should I compliment the fantastic bond between you two ? Jepson was surprised when he heard her , then let out another cold chuckle .
Looks like youve really changed , Elaine .
What happened ? No more fighting for attention with Bianca Werent you very concerned with that before ! I just didnt understand back then , but I get it now.
Whats the p garbage bin is just ridiculous , Elaine said indifferently .
paint in caring about a bunch of trash ? The thought that I was picking through a Jepson was speechless .
Trash ! So in her eyes , we are all just trash now , right ? Is it because we favored Bianca over her ! he thought .
However , Jepson did not think that there was anything wrong with His gaze darkened , and although his mind was swirling , he stayed silent and did not hang up .
Flaine was not in a hurry to hang up either .
She sat next to Sharon , continuing to grill meat .
Finally , Jepson spoke again .
He said flatly .
Elaine , lets make peace .
About the fish pond incident , I didnt do it to slander you online .
You were just stealing all the spotlight on the variety show , and it made Bianca look bad .
I leaked y 1 your scandal out of necessity , hoping it would cover up the negative publicity surrounding Bianca .
And in the end, youre fine , arent you ! Now everyones supporting you online , so havent you enjoyed the spotlight enough ? You know that Bianca is the top celebrity at Galaxy Entertainment .
Weve worked so hard to nurture her .

Shes Galaxy Entertainments hope , and shes the Yeats familys hope .
And because of you , Shawns already downgraded Biancas position and benefits at Galaxy .
Arent you satisfied yet ! Despite all the tension , were still family , Elaine .
Lets move on from the past .
As for the fish pond incident , I can make it up to you .
Jepsons message was clear he wanted to bury the hatchet and forget about everything else .
2:06 PM c Chapter 157 Elaine said amusedly , Okay , I , how are you going to make it up in me ? Elaine knew that Jepson was the most unpredictable among all the Yeat brothers .
He was unlike anyone else .
Seeing Elaine case her stance , Jepson assumed that she had agreed , and quickly said , Now , Galaxy Entertainment isnt run by Shawn anymore .
Grandma and I are the ones calling the shots there .
Leave Radiant Media and cone hack to Galaxy Entertainment , Elaine Jepsons tone was filled with certainty .
Elaine could not help but chuckle .
Are you sure returning to Galaxy is making it up to me and not punishing me .
Mr.
Yeats ! I think you really enjoy treating others like fools .
Thanks to your grandmother , Ive had the privilege of being blacklisted across the internet despite being at the very bottom of the industry and a nobody Now that Ive finally managed to break free from that , you want me to go back to your heartless , shady company ? You can actually say that with at straight face ! Im saving this call recording and sharing it with the public .
Let them have a laugh and see just how shameless people can get .
Honestly .
Im kind of looking forward to it Oh , and isnt our lawsuit with Galaxy Entertainment coming up soon ! Be sure to show up .
I cant wait to see your ugly face in court Jepsons face twisted in disbelief .
He never imagined Elaine would change this much she was nothing like the sister he remembered .
What does she mean by this ? Is she actually going to expose the shady contract , just like they said on Twitter ? Jepson wondered in shock .
Dont you dare ! he yelled Why is Elaine so sinister now ! She even records our phone calls .
Just how much does she not trust our family ? Moreover , didnt she agree to and sign that shady contract herself ? Jepson thought frustratedly .
Elaine said .
Stop trying to threaten me .
Shouting wont make up for your incompetence .
Thanks for the laugh , Jepson , youre hilarious .
Jepson clenched his teeth .
Have my words lost all meaning to you now , Elaine ? Galaxy Entertainment treated you badly in the past , but if you come back .
I can tell Grandma to make it up to you .
We shouldnt let our resources benefit outsiders .
Though youre with Radiant Media now , that company is just a newly established small firm , burning cash recklessly because they have some money to spare .
I refuse to believe their mysterious backer is truly that rich , Theres no way they can keep throwing money around forever .
In the end , theyre bound to collapse Jepson said this last sentence with absolute certainty .
Starting a co would ever see a return .
a company was like throwing money into a bottomless pit , and there was no guarantee one Jepson could not stand the way Radiant Media was operating clearly , some rich kid had too much cash to burn and was playing entrepreneur just for fun .
Radiant Media has neither the connections nor the resources .
Right now , theyve got Sharon under them , but theres no certainty theyll invest time and effort into developing your career .
Your recent variety show appearance was decent , but what did it truly change ? The public perception of you remains overwhelmingly negative .
The entertainment industry is fiercely competitive do you realize how many people fight for stardom each year ? As your brother , I wouldnt lie to you .
The world isnt as simple as you think .
Over the phone , Jepson was trying his best to talk some sense into Elaine Elaine , however , remained unimpressed .
Wow , you sound just like your grandma with her usual brainwashing speeches .
Do you even know what kind of deal Radiant Media gave me ? A 70-30 revenue split , and I get the 70 .
* Plus , theyre pouring serious money into a Starfall drama just for me next season real money , not just empty words .
So tell me , Jepson , what do you have to offer ! The generosity of letting me back to Galaxy Entertainment ! Dont you feel embarrassed ! Youve got n Flaine was no money , yet youre still putting on airs , selling me dreams with nothing to back them up .
Hilarious toying with him of on purpose .
The company was hers she did not need to sign any contract at all .
If Jepson ever found out the truth , hed probably lose his mind .
As for whether my company is bleeding money ? Who cares ? I earn more than the average person .
My skills are still sharp , and Ive more than just one to rely on , Flaine thought Chapter 157 Leonardo had invited her to walk a major runway show , and she was getting paid handsomely for it .
Jepson was at a loss for words Fucking hell .
Now that I think about it , I really do seem kind of pathetic .
Darn that Radiant Mediat Why do they keep going against the Yeats family ! Just because they have money , they think they can do whatever they want , he thought angrily .
Jepson , having been humiliated one too many times , angrily hung up the phone .
Oh , be hung up ? Elaine blinked innocently , pouting .
Wow , hes so sensitive .
I didnt even say anything that bad .
Oh , if that wasnt infuriating .
1 dont know what is ! You knew perfectly well that the Yeats familys higgest concern right now is Galaxy Entertainment .
If I were Jepson , Id probably be so mad that steam would be coming out of my head .
your words are lethal .
Oh , and wait , did you actually record the call ? Seriously , your Elaine smirked .
Of course ! With people like them , Im just doing what I have to protect myself .
They brought it on themselves .
Damn right ! Now hurry up and try my grilled meat Sharon grinned .
Elaine took a bite .
It was indeed delicious .
Elaine said , By the way , Sharon , for the second half of this year , Im planning to invest heavily in a Starfall historical drama .
I need you to play the second female lead .
This will be our companys first big project .
If we do it right , its going to rake in a fortune .
The script was based on a novel Elaine wrote a while ago , which had since become a massive hit .
Sharon caught on quickly .
Elaine , wait a minute are you planning a comeback ! Elaine nodded .
Yes , I be playing the lead female role .
As for the second female lead , thats where you come in you fit the character perfectly Well choose the other actors later .
I fit the character perfectly ! Do you already have the script Sharon asked .
Elaine flashed a smile .
Yep , its based on a super popular novel I wrote called The Sovereign .
Youve read it before .
No way ! Sharon almost lost it .
Elaine , youre dropping a bomb on everyone ! The Sovereign was not just a massive hit , it had a huge following online , and Sharon was a fan of it herself Since Elaines the one who created it , she will understand the characters and plot better than anyone , so shes sure to pick a cast the audience would love , Sharon thought .
But wait … Why The Sovereign though ! There are other novels you wrote that would be better for a TV adaptation , right ? Sharon asked .
Well , its a bit of a long story Elaine explained .
Galaxy Entertainment reached out to me on Twitter to buy the rights to my book , but I turned thern down After you snagged the lead role in that Starfall drama , they probably thought theyd make their own Starfall drama with Bianca as the lead , and they zeroed in on my script .
But , honestly , why would I sell it to them ? I might as well produce it myself .
So , I turned them down .
But the Yeats family is relentless ; they keep pestering me , hoping I reconsider .
I feel like theyre determined to have it their way What the luck ! Sharon cursed .
She did not expect such a thing to happen .
It makes sense theyd want The Sovereign , Elaine remarked lightly .
Bianca wants to transition out of idol dramas , and the lead role in The Sovereign is exactly the kind of character thats trending right now .
If done well , it could easily become a hit .
Sharon smirked .
But if youre the one filming it instead , wont the Yeats family lose their minds ? I doubt they ever imagined that the author behind this novel is actually you .
What a twist ! Elaine waved a hand dismissively .
That has nothing to do with me .
Im just producing a drama that others happened to want whats wrong with that ? Whether or not I sell the rights is entirely my choice as the author of the novel .
2:06 PM C Chapter 157 Theyre the ones who came knocking at my door .
If anyones going to cash in on my s story , its going to be me not them .
Genius .
Absolute genius , Sharon thought .
Sharon suddenly realized that , for the Yeats family , Elaine might just be the most infuriating person alive .
What a stroke of bad luck for them to have crossed paths with Elaine The Yeats family might have made plenty of poor choices , but at least they had a sharp eye for a good script .
The thought of their company launching its first major project had everyone buzzing with excitement .
As a rising player in the entertainment industry , this project was their chance to make waves .
Cheers ! I wish our company success in advance ! Everyone clinked their wine glasses together .
Jepson ended the call , his face dark with frustration .
He wasted no time calling everyone together and recounted his conversation with Elaine .
Ella frowned .
Her expression was the most severe in the room .
Tracy and Robert did not look much better , their displeasure evident on their faces As for the others , their reactions varied .
Trevon , in particular , seemed utterly distracted perhaps still feeling the aftereffects of his latest reality show appearance .
Jepson swept his gaze across the room before breaking the silence .
What are your thoughts on this ? Tucker , as usual , could not be bothered to say anything , watching from the sidelines as if enjoying a show .
Trevon hesitated as if he wanted to speak , but in the end , he said nothing .
Tucker shot a look at Trevon , his twin .
It was rare almost unheard of for Trevon to be this quiet .
Biancas guilt was written all over her face .
She rose to her feet , breaking the silence first .
Tm sorry , everyone .
Ive let you all down .
Bianca had not dared to tell her family that Elaine was actually the president of the Cello Association .
She was afraid that Tucker or the others would bring it up .
Jepson immediately said , This isnt your fault , Bianca .
Exactly ! Ella immediately followed up , her voice carrying a hint of displeasure .
I dont care what others say .
To me , youll always be the best .
Tracy nodded in agreement .
Your grandmother is right .
You were personally raised by me , and I wont allow you to feel inferior .
What happened .
on that reality show proves nothing .
Elaine grew up in a rural village its not surprising that she picked up some skills .
But tell me honestly did you deliberately lose to her in chess ?
