Agnes laughed, then said seriously, "You really don't need to worry about Ivan. He's already got someone he likes."
Jared's face changed.
He thought for a moment, then said grimly, "No way."
"Nothing is impossible."
Jared's expression grew even more serious.
He knew what Agnes meant, but he had never thought in that direction before.
The next day.
Agnes opened her phone, and was immediately flooded with countless new messages.
The previous night’s SH Gala was live-streamed, so news about Mamie's dress being stepped on, her being framed, and the scandal behind the Best Actress award had spread like wildfire all night.
But this morning, the news had completely flipped.
Every media outlet was leading with the same headlines.
"A dramatic turn of events at the SH Gala"
"Mamie and Agnes team up for new drama, dress incident was part of the script”
“The farce was actually a promotion for a new drama”
…
All the media reported that the previous night’s SH Gala was a prearranged performance for the plot of Mamie's new movie.
Several other big-name stars also revealed the scripts they had received in advance.
"I thought you didn't want to stay in the entertainment industry anymore?"
Jared never opposed anything Agnes wanted to do, but Agnes still didn't want to tell him the truth.
She was really short of money now.
She had never been able to ask Jared for money outright. The reason she wanted to sign with Century Entertainment was for the high signing fee that Ivan had promised before.
Her popularity was sky high right now. If she took on a few more movies and ads, it would at least solve the current financial crisis at Starlight International Group.
Agnes was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
After breakfast, Agnes went to Century Entertainment.
Surprisingly, Mamie arrived even earlier than Agnes.
