Chapter 571

Chapter 571

Arthur was blocking the entrance of that villa.

In the surveillance footage, Molly and Lucas came and went together like a loving couple.

Jealousy was raging in his heart.

He took a deep breath and coldly ordered his men, "Break down the door, take Molly, and don't worry about whether Lucas lives or dies."

However, the next moment, after seeing clearly what was inside, Arthur's face suddenly froze.

It was completely empty.

"What's going on!"

"Find her! Has Molly already run away? Bring her back to me!"

The men Arthur brought along also turned pale.

They knew clearly how important Molly was to Arthur. If something went wrong with this, they would definitely be the ones to pay for it in the end.

So they quickly searched the entire villa and finally concluded, "There are signs of life here, but the people left half a month ago. Mr. Davis, by the time we got the information, it was already too late."

After all, they only found out about this location yesterday.

Upon hearing this, Arthur immediately thought of Kimber and said angrily, "Contact Kimber for me! Didn't she say this was what Chloe told her personally? How could Chloe's information be delayed?"

The only explanation was that Kimber had been played by Chloe!

Watching the hope he'd almost grasped shatter in an instant, Arthur's fury was beyond words.

Kimber got chewed out thoroughly.

She was confused herself, mumbling, "This can't be... Chloe is brainless, how could she think of using this method to trick me? Could she and Harper have joined forces?"

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask!" Arthur vented all his anger on Kimber, his face cold as he threatened, "I'm giving you one last chance, otherwise you can wait to be kicked out of the family."

With that, he furiously hung up the phone, no longer listening to Kimber's explanations.

On her end, Kimber was completely bewildered and tried everything before finally managing to contact Chloe again.

She used an unknown number and finally got through to Chloe's phone. "Chloe, you..."

"You're Kimber?" Chloe instantly recognized Kimber's voice and said mockingly, "Looks like you've already found Ms. Reyes's residence?"

At this point, Kimber's last bit of hope vanished completely.

She questioned in disbelief, "You knew all along this information was fake and deliberately put it out to trick me?"

"How can you call it tricking?" Chloe innocently pouted and said, "This information was something you tricked out of me in the first place. I never guaranteed whether it was true or false."

"If you insisted on believing everything I said was true, there's nothing I can do about that." Chloe felt vindicated.

Ever since Kimber returned to the Davis Manor, she had been feeling upset.

Now she finally found a chance to mock and get revenge. She said with a smile, "Oh, but there's one thing - at least we've confirmed that you staying by Arthur's side is really for your own benefit."

This was basically Chloe's last chance to let Kimber prove where she stood.

And Kimber turned around and told Arthur this information.

That was enough to prove she couldn't be trusted.

Chloe mocked her and hung up the phone without any regret.

She turned around and told Harper the good news, saying, "Ms. Orsini, it looks like everything Kimber said before about wanting to help us was just an excuse to confuse us."

Harper nodded, indicating she understood, "This way, next time she contacts you, we can completely close the net."

Chloe's expression became much more serious.

She took a deep breath and hung up the phone again.

Thinking of Kimber, she finally sighed.

Things had really changed beyond recognition.

On Harper's end, she had been monitoring Arthur's movements in real time.

But strangely, although Arthur had already returned to the country and was so angry, he suddenly changed from his previous aggressive tactics and withdrew all strategies targeting Harper.

Harper couldn't figure out what Arthur was up to for a while.

Just when Harper was on full alert, Dominic struck without warning.

Once he made his move, it was with overwhelming force.

Directly targeting Harper and the Wright family's foundation.

Dominic somehow got evidence and exposed problems with the Wright family's conduct, demanding the tax bureau strictly investigate the Wright Group's assets and taxes.

At the same time, Molly was also on Dominic's revenge list.

Under Dominic's direction, Molly instantly became a tainted artist, blacklisted and banned at the official level.

He declared that from now on, any film featuring Molly would not pass review or be released.

This basically completely blocked Molly's plan to return to the entertainment industry.

No one dared to work with Molly anymore.

Her comeback plan fell apart before it even began.

For a time, Lucas was called back to the Wright family to deal with the crisis together, and Molly returned to having nothing to do, visibly dejected.

When Harper learned the news, she secretly clenched her fists.

During this time, her attention had been drawn by Arthur.

She had forgotten that Dominic was still watching from behind.

Taking Alvina away could be said to have seriously offended Dominic.

And as the powerful Mr. Hall, he really didn't make a move unless he did, but once he did, it was impossible to handle.

With Dominic, this huge mountain, pressing down from above, it was very difficult for Harper to smooth things over for Molly.

That day, she saw Molly on the balcony talking on the phone with someone.

Molly looked anxious, frowning as she said to the other end, "Director, we agreed on this film a long time ago. How can you suddenly say it doesn't count and breach the contract?"

The other end said something.

Molly's face immediately turned ugly.

After hanging up, she gave Harper a bitter smile, "It's the review issue again. I understand."

After all, who would dare use Molly now?

It meant that even if the film was made, it would be useless since it couldn't be released at all.

Harper felt guilty, "This time I've dragged you down."

"Don't you dare say that," Molly quickly countered, "I caused you so much trouble before and you never complained. At worst, I'll just take another break."

She seemed very open about it, telling Harper, "Work can start anytime. I'll wait until this storm passes and start over."

However, Harper could see through Molly's forced smile.

She didn't say anything more, but secretly made up her mind to find a way to help Molly restore her reputation as soon as possible.

Caden noticed Harper's worry.

After going back, he suddenly asked Harper, "If traditional film and television doesn't work, why not try web series?"

Harper instinctively shook her head, "Web series also fall under the broadcasting bureau."

Caden smiled, "That's not what I mean. What I mean is, Dominic's operation wasn't legitimate to begin with. His reach probably can't extend to web series yet."

So even if the traditional theater industry blacklisted Molly.

It was only because of Dominic's influence.

Since there were areas where he couldn't exert influence, that was the space where Molly could currently survive.
