Like desperately seeking a definitive answer, Jillian Carter even disregarded whether Joseph Shaw was driving, reaching out to grab Joseph Shawās hand and loudly demanding, "Quick, tell me, is it true! Is it! Sooner or later, Iām going to take back my belongings, one by one!"
"Yes!" Henry Shaw slammed on the brakes to bring the car to a stop, then soothed Jillian Carterās emotions, "Trust me, you wonāt go wrong."
"My room, my things, my daddy and mommy, my brother, sooner or later, Iāll take back whatās mine from Jane Sampson!" Jillian Carter gritted her teeth, a cold glint in her eyes, "I will never lose! Jane Sampson, just you wait and see!"
In an attempt to calm Jillian Carterās nerves, Joseph Shaw reached over to turn on the car radio, hoping it would distract her.
But unexpectedly, the radio immediately started playing Jane Sampsonās new song, "Heās Bothered."
As soon as the voice came out, Jillian Carter shrieked at the top of her lungs, while Joseph Shaw scrambled to turn off the radio.
Then, furrowing his brows, he looked towards Jillian Carter and said, "Jillian, you canāt go on like this. You canāt even deceive yourself; who else do you think you can fool? If you were at home, in front of dad and mom, would you act this way? Then everything youāve done before would be in vain. Do you think itās worth it?"
"Why is she everywhere? How is she everywhere?" Jillian Carter burst out cursing, "Whatās so great about her? Why does the whole world, everyone, like her?"
Joseph Shaw couldnāt answer that question.
Before this, Jillian Carterās feelings towards Jane Sampson hadnāt been this intense, but after Jane Sampsonās identity was revealed, Jillian Carter was deeply affected, and after returning from the hospital, her temperament became more extreme.
Thatās why Joseph Shaw had no choice but to placate her.
Even knowing itās wrong, he could only continue down this path step by step.
"Jillian, once you finish your current work, come back from the Capital Province, and stop acting." Joseph Shaw said.
"What? Do you also think Iām not fit to act? That my acting isnāt as good as Jane Sampsonās?" Jillian Carter widened her eyes sharply, "Do you think, just like everyone else, that Iām not as good as Jane Sampson? We play the same roles, yet Iām criticized everywhere while she is praised everywhere?"
"Thatās not what I mean." Joseph Shaw explained, feeling a bit helpless, "Iām concerned about you. Jane Sampson is an actor, and the busier she is, the better. The busier she is, the less time she has to stay at the Carter Familyās house. Dad and mom werenāt keen on you becoming an actor. If you come back, theyāll think youāre sensible, and you can also go back and have a meal with them often, frequently appearing before them. Come home, but not staying over. Peopleās feelings, they grow with companionship."
Jillian Carter quickly calmed down and nodded, "Youāre right. Okay, Iāll listen to you."
Joseph Shaw breathed a sigh of relief. All the excuses were fake. He just wanted to coax Jillian Carter back for the time being.
The day after Jillian Carter moved out, Mother Carter personally visited the set of Jane Sampson and James Carterās film crew.
Seeing the siblings walking towards her, sweaty and out of breath, Mother Carter felt a wave of comfort in her heart.
Looking at them now, Mother Carter found that her pair of children looked more and more alike, yet before, she hadnāt noticed it at all. "Mom, why are you here?" James Carter was a bit surprised to see their mother suddenly appear. After greeting her, he turned to look at Jane Sampson, thinking that mother was probably here to visit his sister.
