My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 90

After getting the bombshell dropped on her, Sophia frantically searched for Taylor’s information on the internet. Taylor was an extremely mysterious man, and no one knew about his family background. It was rumored that his mother was Elizabeth Murray, the popular award-winning actress about thirty to forty years ago.

Elizabeth used to be a Broadway singer too before she became a film actress. In fact, she had been a porn actress when she first ventured into the filming industry.

Later on, she repackaged herself, changed her image and starred in many costume dramas, becoming a popular movie icon during that era. However, she retired from the film industry all of a sudden and no one heard about her ever again.

Many years later, Taylor appeared. Every aspect of him resembled Elizabeth so much that her movie fans and Broadway fans felt like they had seen him somewhere before. Nonetheless, they were merely speculations which hadn’t been personally confirmed by Taylor before.

He was seldom involved in any tabloid scandals; the only rumors about him were about his sexuality and his partner, Ethan. They had been film partners for ten years, and they were rumored to have gotten married in the Netherlands.

Then, Sophia’s online searches revealed lots of gay, pornographic novels featuring Taylor and Ethan as well as Taylor and Daniel as gay couples in those stories.

Sophia was very shocked from every piece of bombastic information she received today; she needed time to take in all of that information. Taylor was actually her husband!

She had no idea about Taylor or Ethan’s existence before this. She had been living in her maternal grandfather’s house since she was little, and their household was rather poor. She’d even have to depend on her uncles’ mood to see if she could have a decent meal every day.

Hence, it was just impossible for her to watch television in the house at all. Besides, Sophia was an extremely hardworking girl who studied very hard since she was young. She would read whenever she had time instead of watching television and idolizing any movie stars.

Sometimes, her uncle and aunt would be generous enough to allow her to watch television, but the only dramas she was allowed to watch were some lousy local TV shows which aired at eight o’clock every day.

All the movies which Michael starred in were international blockbuster movies that premiered in large cinemas, so it was only natural for her to not know who Taylor was.

She found herself in a daze all day long until the meet-and-greet in the evening; Sophia realized that she would be spacing out occasionally from time to time.

The meet-and-greet was going to be held on the field of the hunting ground in Audistin. Each company gathered around in a semicircle surrounding the center stage. While the staff members were still adjusting the light and sound system, everyone had already come to book a spot on the field.

Everybody was very excited today. It was the first time they had been so enthusiastic during their military training. Sophia sat with the 49th Company with a blank expression on her face.

She was still in a daze; she couldn’t stop thinking about the video where Michael had worn a suit and sang in a Broadway musical show she watched just now. He is so handsome! How can a man look so handsome? So, how can a man like him possibly like women?

Company Commander Ford walked around the company. Looking at the longing expressions on his students’ faces, he teased unforgivingly, “Look at all of you—with that silly look on your faces, you guys look even happier when you see a man than seeing a meat dish!”

The students burst out laughing following his hilarious remark; the atmosphere was unusually lively and merry.

Just as Sophia was still in a daze, she heard screams from the girls beside her all of a sudden. As several thousand girls screamed at the same time, it sounded loud and deafening as it echoed through the air.

The meet-and-greet had begun, and the casts of ‘Doctor Invincible’ arrived soon enough.

‘Doctor Invincible’ was an international blockbuster with a massive budget. Both the main and supporting casts were experienced superstars, but most of the people who were sitting below the stage were millionaires of Bayside City. To them, these superstars were nothing more than just playthings; as long as they were willing to pay, they could see any superstar they wanted anytime.

However, both Taylor and Ethan were an exception; they had been in the entertainment business for more than ten years, and were extremely popular in the industry.

Hence, it was impossible to see them no matter how much those millionaires were willing to pay. Clearly, the best things couldn’t be obtained easily. Thus, those wealthy students were just as fanatic as the ordinary students when it came to idolizing these two superstars.

Sophia stretched her neck and looked at the cast members, watching as Michael and Harry strode elegantly toward them.

Michael looked cool and mysterious while dressed in a well-tailored black suit. As his lips curved into a warm and faint smile, there was a glimmer of a smile in his eyes too. Standing at 185 centimeters tall, he was a walking clothes hanger which looked perfect in any fashion style.

Placing his hands leisurely in his pockets, he looked casual yet charming. He possessed a natural, award-winning-actor temperament which was put on display the moment he entered.

Following closely behind him was Harry, who had also worn a black suit; his blonde hair appeared striking against his outfit. Although they wore similar black-colored suits, Michael looked mysterious, courteous, pristine and gentlemanly. On the other hand, Harry appeared haughty, autocratic, arrogant and sly. His fans usually described him as the domineering partner!

Even though there was another beautiful, blonde foreign lead actress with blue eyes following them, everyone seemed to have ignored her completely. Screams could be heard echoing throughout the place.

“Miss Taylor, Miss Taylor, I love you!”

“Mr. Ethan! Mr. Ethan!”

“Ethan and Taylor are the best couple ever!”

The fans were so excited and the atmosphere was so merry that even Sophia couldn’t bring herself to sit still anymore. She stared at the duo as they walked out one by one, completely stunned. She was so mesmerized that one couldn’t find anything else except awe and amazement in her eyes. Holy smoke! They are so handsome!

As far as she remembered, she had only seen Michael in a proper suit once—that was when she met him for the first time. When they were at home, he simply ran around the house with his pajamas or a pair of loose boxer shorts.

However, it was obvious that Michael had carefully dressed up for the event today. With his hair styled flawlessly using some hairspray, he looked clean and fresh from head to toe in his outstanding attire. Michael even had some slight beautification done on his face, which appeared utterly charming and handsome.

Sophia swallowed nervously as she stared at Michael quietly. She sat hidden within the crowd, surrounded by the enthusiastic fans. Besides, the lighting around that area wasn’t very good and everyone dressed similarly in military uniforms.

Since she was certain that Michael couldn’t see her or notice the silly look on her face as she stared at him, Sophia was bold enough to keep her eyes glued to him.

Michael and Harry waved at the crowd and greeted everyone. The fans couldn’t stop screaming, and their screams only stopped after they went up the stage. The fans widened their eyes as they held their breaths to hear their idols’ voices.

“Hello! To all my juniors from Bayside University, how are you? I’m Taylor.” Everyone heard Michael’s voice through the microphone. His voice still sounded deep and sexy even though there was a layer of mechanical alteration to it.

“Ah!” A group of fans screamed again.

After the screams had subsided, Harry took the microphone from Michael. He smiled playfully at the crowd and waved to greet them while he said, “Hi, students from Bayside University, how are you?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Once again, screams could be heard piercing through the night sky.

Michael and Harry were more mysterious compared to other actors; they were very low-profile in the entertainment industry too.

They seldom showed up at public events most of the time, and they did not film any commercials either —even the wealthy students below the stage couldn’t see them very often. Most of them watched their movies while growing up, but it was their first time meeting them in person.

The situation at the fan meeting seemed borderline crazy. The drill instructors patrolled around the surroundings to prevent any tragic commotion or stampedes from happening in case the students went out of control.

The meet-and-greet was divided into several sessions. First, the main cast shared their acting experience with the students, which was followed by an interactive session where the students could ask the cast members anything. There was even the possibility of having a lucky draw and giveaway as well.

The host went up the stage and several guests remained seated. Soon enough, everyone kept quiet and the place became silent.

The host was none other than Xyla herself. Although she studied performance, she was good at broadcasting and emceeing. The host had been selected among the students in Bayside University for this meet-and-greet. Due to Xyla’s relationship with Richard, she had been successfully selected as the host.

Xyla still wore her military training uniform, but she had exquisite makeup on her face; her features were as gorgeous as a fairy’s. The way she carried herself on the stage was excellent, but she still looked inexperienced apart from being nervous. After all, it was her first time seeing Taylor and Ethan too.

Xyla felt extremely pleased with herself. She managed to obtain the opportunity to host the meeting with much difficulty, and she didn’t expect that she would be on the same stage as her idols either. She glanced below the stage involuntarily and caught sight of Richard’s smiley face. She smiled back at him.

Almost immediately, she searched for Sophia’s face among the crowd. As expected, she saw the jealous look in Sophia’s eyes among the crowd. She felt even more pleased with that and began to host today’s meet-and-greet in a calm and orderly manner.

Sophia was jealous indeed. Xyla is so close to my husband!
