I’m anxious to get on stage!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside a makeup room at the Gonzalez City Third Ring Stadium, Nando Brandon looked at his reflection in the mirror, prettier than a girl’s, and impatiently urged the makeup artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Brandon, I’m already doing my best, but your… your requirements are really high, in such a short time I…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon turned around and slapped the makeup artist across the face: “Say that again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your requirements…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the makeup artist could finish, Nando Brandon slapped them again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The makeup room fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people involved in the concert were silently watching Nando Brandon, standing still without making a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you looking at! Scram!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon waved his hand impatiently at them: “What are you all standing around for! This is what happens when you make mistakes! You all better be sharp, if you screw up my concert, you’re all out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone felt extremely angry inside, but there was nothing they could do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, who would dare to cross the top star?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Enlighten Group treated him like he was made of glass, fearing he might crumble. If they dared oppose Nando Brandon, it would be like signing their own death warrant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would willingly smash their own rice bowl and fight with money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the rage could only be swallowed down into the pit of their stomachs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Scram! Someone else come over, you’re fired! I’ll inform your department manager later!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon yelled at the makeup artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m sorry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The makeup artist’s eyes reddened, unable to hold back the tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Scram! Scram! Scram!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Nando Brandon grew even angrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My concert is about to start, and here you are crying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Arvid Woody walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With less than half an hour before the concert began, the audience had long since entered the venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came to check how well the ancestor here was being managed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was any delay, the higher-ups wouldn’t blame Nando Brandon; all the blame would ultimately fall on his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This makeup artist, what kind of standard is this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon pointed at his own face, looking at Arvid Woody and said coldly: “You’ve caused a delay! Can you shoulder the responsibility?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quick! Arrange a new makeup artist right away, and you! Get lost!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arvid Woody didn’t dare offend Nando Brandon and could only vent all his anger on the makeup artist in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crew member, unable to stand it, came over and pulled the crying makeup artist away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a piece of crap! Don’t let me see him again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon kicked the makeup case away, seething with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isaiah, don’t take it to heart! He’s just like that, acting like an emperor from ancient times just because he has some popularity!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew member who came out comforted Isaiah Kensington.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know, but this job is really important to me. My boyfriend’s hot pot restaurant ran into some trouble and urgently needs money. I could have made tens of thousands here, but now…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Isaiah Kensington burst into tears with a “waah”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forget it, you can make money anywhere. Why cater to this lord and master! Really thinks he’s something—just a plaything for the wealthy, a whore selling his ass, and he acts so proud!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew member spat on the ground and consoled Isaiah Kensington: “Wait here for a bit. I’ll talk to the manager and see if I can get you some money. After all, you worked all afternoon; they can’t give you nothing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he turned and went back to his work area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Achoo!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon suddenly sneezed and said irritatedly: “Must be some idiot cursing me behind my back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Calm down! The concert is important; your fans outside are all waiting to see you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arvid Woody said smilingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t have a choice; Nando Brandon was a moneymaker with a major backer, and to the Enlighten Group, he was a treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone who conflicts with Nando Brandon can just fuck off!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Arvid Woody was no good person either. After being humbled by Nando Brandon, he took it all out on the employees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at that moment, Nando Brandon’s phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing who the video caller was, he waved his hand at Arvid Woody, “Get everyone out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arvid Woody was startled but immediately got up and did as told.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an unspoken rule; whenever Beckett Carmichael called or video-called, Arvid Woody was responsible for clearing the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So as not to let any disgraceful incidents leak out, Nando Brandon’s public image would collapse, and he would be unable to continue harvesting his fans’ adoration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, why are you calling again? We just finished talking, do you miss me already?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon coyly looked at Beckett Carmichael, putting on a flirtatious act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Beckett Carmichael was in no mood to watch, nor enjoy this greeting from his “son.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning that Nando Brandon had offended Julius Reed’s wife, Beckett Carmichael had already discarded this plaything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Son, I heard you took an endorsement recently, one with Bran Cook, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael got straight to the point. He knew Nando Brandon’s concert was about to start and didn’t want to waste more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right, daddy! Is there a problem?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though surprised that Beckett Carmichael would know about this, Nando Brandon didn’t dare to hide anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael had a huge influence in the capital, and now that he was in Gonzalez City, it wouldn’t be difficult to know about these things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his every move was being watched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you also take an endorsement from Quella Radcliffe?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael asked once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, daddy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the revulsion of addressing him that way, Nando Brandon still had to swallow his morals and call him “daddy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing up, there would be no money to make.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kneeling is how you earn money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m very clear on the ins and outs of this matter; contrary to the original plan, reverse it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael said with a grave voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Reverse it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it was Nando Brandon who was confused, “What do you mean, daddy…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bran Cook wanted you to stand by his side tomorrow and join hands to screw over Quella Radcliffe, right? Now I want you to reverse it; stand with Quella Radcliffe tomorrow and screw over that bastard Bran Cook!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought of having given billions to the enemy of his benefactor infuriated Beckett Carmichael.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t it have been better to feed that money to dogs?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But daddy, that’s…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon felt a pang of pain at Beckett Carmichael’s request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a three billion endorsement!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have pocketed a whole billion of it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, with all the tax evasion in the entertainment industry, it was pretty much pure profit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, to spit out the meat that was already in his mouth, he was extremely reluctant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Say that again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coldness in Beckett Carmichael’s voice scared Nando Brandon into hurriedly nodding, “Understood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After uttering that, he quickly called Arvid Woody on another phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was their agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Nando Brandon faced something he couldn’t handle with Beckett Carmichael, he would make this call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nando Brandon, they are rushing you outside, hurry up! Otherwise, there won’t be enough time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arvid Woody, who received the call, shouted this cooperatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, you see…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon showed a troubled expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go on, get busy. But remember what I just said! That Quella Radcliffe, she’s my benefactor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael emphasized heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nando Brandon felt another pang of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>",1272,"2026-06-06T17:04:44.711Z",1,"novelbin.me","27609089d3756ca6b41786365b3f65e418ef3c762b4dac7c483a5b2fd8ce0ed2","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-201","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-499",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
