Top Actress Beware: Also Reborn Is Your CEO Husband!
Chapter 173: A Day Late and a Dollar Short
His reach isn't that long yet; he can't cover all of Q City's sky.
The things Eleanor Spencer said before she died in her previous life.
She said Mason Nightshade deliberately wanted to destroy the Shaw Family.
Although she still hadn't figured out what was really hidden behind all this.
But indirectly, this also showed that Mason Nightshade still couldn't take down the Shaw Family yet—his influence hadn't reached every corner of Q City.
Although Aurelia Shaw knew very well in her heart, with Mason Nightshade's ruthlessly efficient ability, it was only a matter of time.
So.
She had to make thorough preparations before that day arrived!
At noon, Aurelia Shaw received a phone call from Viscount Zhou.
His voice sounded a bit embarrassed; he really ended up looking bad in this matter. "My family's lawyer doesn't dare take your case. Mason Nightshade actually warned every lawyer in Q City that whoever dares to take your case is standing against him. Damn, I couldn't even find one brave enough all morning—a bunch of cowards!"
If it weren't for the fact that his family lawyer had a contract with his old man, and his old man wouldn't let him fire him, he'd have done it long ago!
"Mason Nightshade has that much influence?"
Aurelia Shaw was surprised by the result. With her identity and Viscount Zhou's status, they actually couldn't suppress someone like Mason Nightshade, who had only been back in the country for just over a year. That really caught her off guard, and made her even more wary of Mason Nightshade.
Could it be that Mason Nightshade's reach already covered the whole sky over Q City?
But Viscount Zhou's next words dispelled her suspicion.
"He himself isn't that influential, but the forces behind him are." Knowing what Aurelia Shaw was confused about, Viscount Zhou explained: "Mason Nightshade came back as a retired military man, but in truth, he's never really let go of the military circle. Even if he really did, business can't beat politics, money can't suppress power... Mason Nightshade is just a fledgling CEO here, but the political connections behind him are significant."
"I understand," Aurelia Shaw said softly.
The sky in her eyes was only the sky of Q City. But Mason Nightshade's sky was all of Country Z.
That afternoon, Aurelia Shaw got a call from the production team, telling her to come shoot tomorrow. She didn't have many scenes left, but because someone was working against her behind the scenes, her vicious and savage storyline got doubled—now there were only a few shots left to film.
The next day Aurelia Shaw went to the set, finished every shot in one take, and quickly wrapped up her remaining scenes. Eleanor Spencer's scenes were scheduled in the evening, so she wasn't there during the day—Aurelia didn't run into her at all.
After shooting, remembering something, Aurelia Shaw went to Andrew Kennedy's lounge.
Knock knock.
Aurelia Shaw knocked on the door; a woman's voice inside said, "Come in." She pushed open the door and saw Andrew Kennedy and his agent Susan Easton sitting on the couch, just as she expected.
Andrew Kennedy hadn't expected Aurelia Shaw to show up.
He stood up from the couch. "Finished filming? I came by just now to watch your shoot—you did really well. Today was your last scene in this series, right?"
Aurelia Shaw nodded. "I just wanted to come by and thank you."
Hmm?
Andrew Kennedy looked at her in confusion.
"Thanks for the thing on Weibo. Even if it was a bit late, I still appreciate it—you helped me resolve a lot of trouble."
Andrew Kennedy smiled. "It was nothing. Looking forward to working together again in the future."
Aurelia Shaw nodded and turned to leave.
Susan Easton grumbled, displeased, "We did her such a big favor; not only does she not appreciate it, she even called us late to the rescue."
