Agnes went quiet for a bit.
She said, “Tomorrow, the media will announce that this whole gala was just a show. If you suddenly
announce that you’re bailing out of the entertainment industry. that would generate a lot of attention,
and I’ll never be able to explain it. So, my first condition is that you can’t quit the industry, but keep
business as usual”
Mamie was a bit taken aback.
Agnes then turned to Ivan, “I’m planning to sign with Century Entertainment. If these negative rumors
about you get out, Century Entertainment would be screwed and so would my future. So, my second
condition is that this matter cannot be made public.”
Ivan just silently stared at Agnes.
“My third condition is, since you deliberately had me crash into your car, you should return the two
thousand dollars to me.”
Ivan was dumbstruck, “Agnes, you…”
Agnes feigned arrogance, “Alright, I’m done talking. I’m so tired these days, I need to go home and
rest.”
Agnes grabbed Jared and left.
The hall was left with just van and Mamie.
Jared’s car was parked outside. Agnes got in and slumped into the seat, she was very tired but felt
relaxed inside.
Jared gently touched Agnes’ face, smiling. “Nice acting.”
Agnes gave a small smile, “You too.”
Agnes thought back to when she was on stage, hitting rock bottom, and Jared told her. “You have let
me down so much.”
Even though she knew it was all a ruse, her heart still felt like it was being stabbed
Seeing how worn out Agnes was, Jared felt a pang of sympathy, “I told you to let me handle it, but you
insisted on this whole charade and now look at you, all worn
out.”
Agnes sighed, “I wasn’t really interested in outing Ivan as the puppet master I had my suspicions about
him from the start, but I wanted Mamie to see it for herself Otherwise, no matter how I explained it, she
wouldn’t believe it.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
“So you weren’t just putting on a show for Ivan with Mamie, but you were putting on a show for Mamie
with me? When did she become so important to you?”
Agnes was taken aback, “Is there?”
“Or why would you go to such troubles? Have you ever thought about what would happen if you make
a fake out at some point, or if Mamie betrays you halfway? You will really be charged with countless
crimes.”
“She wouldn’t do that.” Agnes said.
“How do you know?”
“I don’t know, just a hunch,”
Truth be told, Agnes didn’t pity Mamie, but when she saw Mamie being humiliated at the hospital and
swallowed her humiliation, Agnes thought of herself.
She’s been doing the same thing at home for years, hasn’t she?
Laura seemed nice to her on the surface, but behind the scenes, the relationship between her father
and her had been separated.
They both lost their closest people when they were very young
In some ways, Agnes could relate to Mamie. She didn’t want to be her enemy.
Jared started the car “But, you forgive Ivan so easily, do you really want it in your heart? He has done
so many things to frame you.”
“I believe he won’t do it again, Ivan is smart, and Mamie surely wouldn’t allow him to do that again.
Plus, they both owe me now, so my future at Century Entertainment will probably be smoother.”
At this, Jared seemed a bit pissed, “I thought of him as a friend, but he tried to marry my wife! I won’t let
him off that easily. I’ll find a chance to teach him a lesson.”
