My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 7

The news of Sophia taking legal action became a huge issue. The past incident almost ruined her future. Furthermore, she was a student at Bayside University, and so her reputation was extremely important.

If she refused to go to court over this matter, it would directly affect her reputation at Bayside University. In fact, it would affect her enrollment in the university.

After the university understood the situation and its impact, Sophia was specifically given several days off to attend to this lawsuit.

At Harper’s mansion.

Xyla and Kayla were seated in the living room while chatting about a new movie.

“Sigh, Kayla, recently, there’s a newly premiered movie, which is particularly popular, called ‘Overlord’. There are two male protagonists in the movie. The male lead, Taylor Murray, is so handsome! His role as an actor in the movie makes him seem so feminine, but it’s not annoying at all! Ethan Winston, who is the other male lead, is exceptionally handsome too!” Xyla commented enthusiastically with a magazine in hand.

Kayla saw Taylor’s photograph across the front page under the headlines. Taylor Murray was currently the megastar in the entertainment industry because he had just received several awards recently. In fact, he secured the Best Actor Awards both locally and internationally, and so Kayla was intrigued. “The Harper Family invested a total of 200 million in the filming of the movie ‘Overlord’. It has only premiered in theater for fifteen days, but the movie is already a huge box office hit. It’s grossing at 1.8 billion now, and I’m sure the movie will emerge as the number one box office hit of the year!”

Xyla shook Kayla excitedly. “In that case, let’s catch the movie together!”

Just when they were chatting, Richard came walking down the spiral staircase slowly. He asked with a smile while observing them chatting eagerly, “What are you two chatting about?”

Xyla clung onto his arm playfully. “Richard, let’s catch a movie. I want to watch ‘Overlord’!”

“Sure, of course. Let’s catch the movie together.”
