Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Dennis's face, occupying the center position on the poster, coupled with the explosively popular reports on the trending topics, made Becky's face unrecognizable after a brief moment of stunned silence.

Her best friend, on the other hand, was still chattering on and on.

"Why didn't you ever tell me that Denise actually passed the audition and even got the lead role in that movie? That's £80, which is a full $100 million! Are you trying to pocket it? Hey, that's not right, sister. Look at me, when have I ever not thought of you in any situation?"

Becky couldn't hold back any longer: "Shut up! Bitch, I know nothing about this!"

Her face looked even worse than braised pig liver.

Because she genuinely didn't know these things. In her memory, Dennis should have stayed on that film crew as a handyman, just an insignificant errand boy.

She was even waiting for the moment when Dennis couldn't resist anymore and would come back to the house.

She'll definitely settle the score with Dennis then.

In any case, it's absolutely impossible for her to give up Dennis, because that would mean giving up that huge sum of £5000 million.

Nothing could stop her from getting the money! Nothing could stop her!

Moreover, she originally thought it was only a matter of time before Dennis couldn't hold on and had to come back, because with such a little bastard, it was absolutely impossible for anyone to take him seriously or let him gain anything.

But now she's being told she was wrong, that Dennis is living a good life after leaving her?

This stung her pride, making her feel ashamed.

This reminded her of the person who was always forbidden to be mentioned in this family, the real taboo, her sister.

That person who came from the same background as her, but lived a much better life than her.

Becky felt a pang of separation whenever her sister was mentioned.

Why is that? We're all the same, so why is she doing better than me?
Now her son is living a better life than she is.

He even landed the lead role in a top-tier blockbuster.

They might even become stars overnight!
Aspiring to enter the entertainment industry!
Make a fortune!

You'll become a real millionaire instantly!

"Shit!" Becky cursed under her breath.

After a moment of silence, the best friend finally spoke: "So you don't know why he was able to become the main character? You don't even know anything about it?"

“Yes! I had no idea about this at all!” Becky nodded through gritted teeth.

“Hey, this won’t do. If it’s like this, then they’re the ones in the wrong.” Her best friend shook her head. “This is disregarding the law. You’re that kid’s legal guardian, so you should have the right to know everything. In fact, if he’s doing something that’s work-related, he should need your consent. But they didn’t get your consent, so that’s illegal.”

Even though they are ignorant of the law and have not received much education, they still know many things.

Just like someone who has never been to school but knows perfectly well that murder is illegal, some things are considered common sense in this country.

Just like abortion is illegal.

Like many European countries, England provides very comprehensive protection for children, at least in law.

England has strict definitions and procedures for dealing with the use of child labor, making it a rather sensitive issue.

But Becky looked terrible.

This reminded her of why the production team questioned the transfer of guardianship for her back then. Denise doesn't have a guardian now!

At first, she thought it was just because the other party was afraid that she would sue them for using child labor, which would affect their ability to source qualified, cheap labor.

But now it seems that things are not so simple.

Because transferring guardianship is a very complicated matter, requiring extensive review and significant investment. It doesn't seem worthwhile for a large corporation to do this for a mere laborer.

But they still did it, which means there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

"Why didn't I understand back then?" Becky also regretted her 'straightforwardness' back then.

She blamed all her anger on others: "It's all because of these damned capitalists who took my nephew away!"

“I think you should take Dennis back,” her best friend said. “From a moral and legal standpoint, he’s your sister’s child, and you’re his aunt! You’re his blood relative, and everything he has comes from you. After all, don’t forget, if you hadn’t taken care of him, he would have died in a garbage dump or an orphanage long ago!”

Not to mention you spent so much money raising him; everything he's achieved rightfully belongs to you! Hey, I took care of him a lot when he was little, he can't forget me, otherwise that's ungrateful!

“Yes!” Becky nodded, completely agreeing.

In fact, even without her best friend's involvement, she wouldn't have given up even if her best friend hadn't reminded her.

After all, Dennis is dealing with a $5000 million trust fund!

However, how exactly should we get Dennis back?
Her eyes suddenly lit up.

Got it!

“I know how to do it!” Becky said.

"Oh? How do I do that?" my best friend asked.

"Public opinion is a good thing. If this little bastard's fans knew that he was ungrateful and abandoned the people who raised him, how would they judge him?"

Public opinion is a terrifying thing in Europe and America.

It can have a significant impact, and may even trigger riots.

No matter what, a protest is inevitable, especially in a country where maternal love is overflowing and everyone is trying their best to show and demonstrate their love.

“I will contact the media,” Becky said.

Right now, her chances are still very high.

As long as she doesn't say anything, Dennis will never know about the existence of 5000 million.

As long as he doesn't know, there's still a chance!

Meanwhile, on the other side, right after Xia Yuan helped Dennis complete the custody procedures.

They were greeted by an unexpected guest.

This was a well-dressed middle-aged man, dressed in a suit and tie, who looked every bit the gentleman.

Xia Yuan asked with some confusion, "May I ask who you are?"

The other person's posture was neither too high nor too low, but rather very polite, extending their hand at just the right moment: "According to Eastern etiquette, I should shake your hand at this moment."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, dear Mr. Xia Yuan. On behalf of the Sequoia Trust, I extend my greetings."

Trust funds?
Xia Yuan was taken aback.

I don't seem to have any business related to trust funds, do I? The only one that seems to be related is the He Ye Foundation.

However, the He Ye Foundation is just a purely charitable foundation, and it doesn't even have the function of transferring business or evading taxes. Xia Yuan has never used the foundation to do such things.

Why would a trust fund approach him? (End of Chapter)
