My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 765

Chapter 765

They were all stunned, for they saw how Jonathan was crouching in the middle of the pungent trash pile before taking those trash in a cart to the trash sorting center.

Even though they were in the cinema halls, they could almost smell the trash just by looking at the scene.

The one who played the assistant to Jonathan’s character was Naomi.

Her character had the dream of joining the entertainment industry. She was gifted with a good voice, but someone set her up and made her deaf and mute.

Naomi had a period of time when she lost her hearing, so her performance as the deaf assistant was exceptionally moving.

In fact, the audience could empathize with her.

She was helpless and powerless—she was but an ordinary assistant without anyone powerful backing her up.

However, she, like others, had a dream.

The movie had a happy ending. Jonathan’s character became a top actor, and his assistant became a popular actress after getting cured.

Moreover, his encouragement for others to save the Earth started the trend of separating trash into categories. As a matter of fact, picking up trash became a trend as well.

Those who used to laugh at him and set them up were all punished accordingly.

After the people in the cinema halls saw that, they were stunned to their cores.

The destruction of the environment was terrifying.

The scene at the start of the movie was seared into their minds.

The people lived above mountains of trash, and the idol ended up dying above one of those mountains. No one could escape the pungent scent of trash, and houseflies were everywhere.

Outside the halls, the sky was dark.

The people did not know how they managed to bring themselves out of the halls.

Those who used to look down on Greg and the other people in charge—the critics and the popular directors—felt embarrassed by what they said earlier.

They felt humiliated.

The movie was meaningful, and the performances of the main cast were fantastic.

They had all accused of Jonathan as an attractive but useless person, and they said that Naomi was just a rich family’s daughter who was working for fun, but now… All they could think was that they had been too quick to jump to conclusions.

Just the scene where Jonathan was picking up bottles and pushing carts and carts of trash to the sorting center was enough to make them doubt their earlier judgment.

After all, which trending idol would be able to endure the hardship of such a laborious scene?

Moreover, Naomi was the daughter of the Nolan family, but she was also picking up trash with Jonathan.

No daughter of a prestigious family would be able to do such a thing.

Before the release of the movie, the official account of “Trashy Idol” had posted photos of the behind- the-scenes.

Back then, everyone thought that Jonathan was just putting on an act.

Yet… they were proven wrong.

They were the ones who could not bring themselves to crouch down and pick up the trash even though it was a simple action.

Looking at the big shots, who all had similar somber looks on their faces, Ashlyn could not help but curl her lips. She then stood up and walked to the center of the cinema hall, taking the microphone from the host. In a cold tone, she uttered, “You’ve all finished watching the movie, so you must have thoughts of your own about it. We didn’t make this movie for the money nor for any other reason but one. I, Ashlyn Berry, only want to do things I’m interested in. I hope people will be putting their focus on environmental issues from now on. Thank you for coming to the sneak preview. We will be gifting everyone here a little gift, and our main cast, Jonathan and Naomi, will be the ones giving them out. Please head toward the exit.”

With that said, the staff members of the cinema theater began leading the crowd toward the doorway.

Right then, a sudden loud noise sounded out.

Bang!

Ashlyn widened her eyes. “Lucas!”

Instantly, she threw the microphone aside and ran toward the man.

She witnessed the man by the seats stand up, swayed on his feet, and collapsed.

That loud noise was from him—he had knocked his head against the seat in front of him.

At the same time, the people who had yet to leave the venue could not help but turn toward the source of the noise.

By then, Ashlyn was already beside Lucas. Pulling his limp body into her arms, she cried out, “Spencer, send him to the hospital!”
