The Amazing son in law Chapter 1403
Charlie wasn’t great at explaining to his wife Claire that he was going to see Stefanie. Instead, he simply told her that Liam had a temporary obligation and that he needed to help out.
Claire didn’t dwell on it and reminded him not to stay out too late. With that, Charlie headed back upstairs to take a bath by himself.
Afterward, Charlie got back into his car and drove to the Shangri-La Hotel. Meanwhile, Stefanie was anxiously waiting for him in her luxurious suite, the presidential suite of Shangri-La. This very room had once been occupied by Donald and his son, Sean.
The presidential suite at Shangri-La is renowned for being the most opulent and spacious, covering hundreds of square meters. Yet, at that moment, it was just Stefanie in that grand room.
Her assistant, Cherie, was staying in a suite right next door.
When Charlie rang the doorbell, Stefanie, dressed in a satin nightdress, hurried to open the door.
Seeing Charlie, her face lit up with joy, though she playfully teased, “Oh, so you can put your wife aside to check on your childhood sweetheart fiancé?”
Charlie chuckled, responding, “Didn’t you mention your stomach was upset? I’m here to help.”
“Hmph!” Stefanie replied with a slight pout, “If you still have a conscience, come inside!”
She stepped aside to welcome him in. Fresh chapters posted on find⁂novel.net
As Charlie entered, he was taken aback by the sheer size of the presidential suite. “Aren’t you worried about being alone in such a big room?” he asked.
“A little,” Stefanie replied casually, “Why not just stay with me tonight?”
Charlie cleared his throat, saying, “Men and women shouldn’t cross certain boundaries. Plus, you’re a celebrity and should be mindful of your image. If your fans find out there’s a man in your room overnight, they might be disappointed.”
“Disappointed? Not a chance,” Stefanie dismissed his concern with a wave. “Everyone knows I have a childhood sweetheart fiancé, and they know I’ve been searching for him. If fans see you here, I’ll just tell them you’re the fiancé I’ve been looking for all these years.”
Charlie quickly protested, “Oh, that can’t happen! Stars tend to lose popularity once they’re in a relationship. As soon as they announce a boyfriend or girlfriend, or even a marriage, their fans often turn away. Their careers can take a significant hit.”
Stefanie shrugged off his worries, “Do you really think I care about my stardom? The Sun family might not be as powerful as the Wade family, but if I wanted, I could buy half of the entertainment industry. Who cares about fame? I am the entire entertainment scene.”
Charlie had to admit, Miss Sun certainly had the influence to make such claims.
While China’s entertainment industry is vast, it should be viewed in context. The total annual box office revenue is only 64.2 billion, which is just a small fraction compared to a wealthy city like Eastcliff.
This 64.2 billion supports countless theaters, film companies, renowned directors, screenwriters, and actors. However, as the saying goes, “There are more monks than meat,” meaning that the net profits generated by the entire industry each year are quite modest.
