My Wife Is So Sweet novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Uncovering the Truth

They knew that the moment the recording was fetched, the two of them were done for.

If it'd just been Sally, fine, she could just say that she misremembered and get away with an apology.

But Sam had taken her side back then. As the choreographer, he'd designed the moves himself. He couldn't say that he of all people had forgotten.

Thinking of that, Sam glared at Sally.

It was all this woman's fault. She'd wanted to make an impression in front of Max and step on Laura while she was at it, and she'd come up with that plan on the spot.

Great, she'd made an impression, so what now?

Sally was in a bit of a panic too.

If Max caught wind that she was deliberately framing Laura, forget the costar position, she might not even keep her side character role.

At that moment, Sam suddenly backed up.

Someone immediately called, "Where are you going, Sam?"

Sam laughed it off. "Stomachache. Heading to the bathroom."

"Oh, then hurry up. The recording will be here soon. Head back as soon as you're done."

"Sure, all right."

Sam left hastily.

Laura looked at the direction he'd gone and smiled coldly.

...

Two minutes later, a corner from the recording room.

Sam hurriedly blocked off the path of an assistant who'd just got the recording tapes.

"Give me the tapes."

"Sam, I..."

"Do you want to keep staying on set from now on? You know full well how thick my resume is. Name one director who doesn't respect me, eh? If you want to keep surviving in this circle, you'd better not make enemies of me, got it?"

The assistant jolted, put on the spot.

At that moment, a cool voice rang out.

"Sam, were you just going to the toilet as an excuse and trying to get rid of the evidence through threats?"

Sam trembled.

Turning around, he saw Laura and Max and Leroy and the others standing there.

His face changed.

Leroy was already furious at the scene.

He pointed at Sam and growled, "I can't believe you'd do this, Sam! Back there, Laura said you might be going to get the recording, and I even stood up for you, but you really... damn it! How could you!"

Leroy's relationship with Sam had always been fine. He didn't much agree with the man's private life, but they were men. Men made friends on just how stand-up they were with each other, and never considered private life as a factor.

Then this had happened.

Sam was a bit pale, but even if he wanted to make excuses, there were none left.

Behind the crowd, Sally's face was ashen.

Laura turned to look at Leroy, asking, "Does that prove my innocence, director?"

Leroy was panting with rage as he nodded.

"It wasn't your fault. Don't worry, I'll stand up for you over today."

That wasn't just said for her, but for Max.

Max's face was cold as he looked at the two perpetrators as if he was looking down on rubbish.

"From now on, I don't want to see these two anywhere near the business."

Forget his future, he couldn't be sure if he could come back out alive if he went there!

His lips trembled as he whimpered, "Mr. Nixon, I can't go to a place like that. Please, have mercy and let me go. I won't be a martial arts choreographer anymore, just please don't sent me there."

Max couldn't be bothered to listen to him any longer.

"Barnes."

"Here, sir."

"Bring him over there."

"Yes, sir."

Barnes ended up taking Sam away anyway.

Everyone in the cast gaped at each other.

Sally was already too terrified to speak. She was afraid that Max would give her the same treatment he'd given Sam.

Thankfully, she was a woman, and Max didn't do anything with her. But she could forget staying in the entertainment industry. As for the rest, Max didn't care to split hairs over a woman.

But even an exile from the entertainment industry was heavy punishment for Sally.

After all, she was twenty-eight this year. It had taken so much money and so much effort for her to climb to this position today.

Since she'd made her debut at eighteen, it had been a full decade. She couldn't do anything else.

Now, with Max chasing her out of the industry, her future had been severed.

That was all thanks to Laura!

With that, she shot Laura a cold glance.

If she wanted to make enemies of her, she wouldn't let her off easy.

If she couldn't stay in the entertainment business anymore, then neither could Laura survive as well!
