Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 244

Mamie being here was no surprise, being the top dog at Century Entertainment.

But considering their past, Agnes thought it best to steer clear of her.

And so, she quickly ducked into the elevator and made a beeline for Ivan's office.

Since they'd set up a meeting beforehand, Ivan's secretary Faye ushered her in no problem.

Ivan was on the phone and motioned for Agnes to take a seat on the couch.

Agnes sat, quietly waiting.

After a bit, Ivan hung up, walked over and apologized for making her wait.

"No biggie," Agnes replied with a smile, "I've only been here for five minutes."

"What's for lunch today?" Ivan asked.

"I'm easy," she responded, "You pick the place. Lunch is on me this time. I still owe you for the favor you did me."

Ivan responded softly, "You promised me one thing. I can't let you off the hook that easily. I'm buying today."

Today's agenda was all business.

Agnes didn't push it, "Alright, I'll take you out another time."

Ivan passed Agnes a document, "This is your promotional schedule for the next few days. Let me know if there's anything you're not cool with."

Agnes flipped through it, "Shouldn't be a problem. I'll do my best to cooperate."

"Agnes," Ivan began, "I hope you'll reconsider signing with us."
