Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 293

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 Ivan 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.
