Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 66

Agnes exited the newspaper office with an envelope containing 20,000 yuan in her hands. She dug out the business card the driver had given her and dialed the number on it.

"Hello, who's this?" A deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

The intense aura made Agnes nervous. She quickly said, "Is this Mr. Ivan? I'm the one who hit your car last time. I've got the compensation ready. What's the easiest way for me to get it to you?"

"Cash?"

Agnes paused and said, "Yes."

"I'm tied up at the moment. Come find me on the 19th floor of the Century Building later." And with that, Mr. Ivan hung up.

Agnes was a bit puzzled. Even though it was cash, he could have just given her his bank account number, and she could have transferred the money. Why go through all this hassle?

But considering she had hit such an expensive car, Agnes figured she should apologize in person.

She had no classes in the morning, so she hailed a cab straight to the Century Building. This landmark building was not far from the Tim Group, also a prominent feature in Willowbrook Town.

The building was the headquarters of Century Entertainment, shining like a golden castle. Half of the top stars from the entertainment industry were signed to the company, with Mamie being the most popular.

Agnes was surprised to find out that the seemingly businesslike man worked at this entertainment company. Without thinking too much, she headed straight to the 19th floor.

As the elevator doors opened, Agnes was stunned by the scene before her. Hundreds of young girls were gathered in the long hallway, creating quite an impressive sight.

To her surprise, she spotted Beatrice Pritchard among the crowd.

Seeing Agnes, Beatrice sarcastically said, "Agnes, I never thought I'd see you here at the auditions. But you sure do stand out in that getup. Didn't you know today's scene is a ball?"

Agnes was confused. Auditions? She noticed all the girls were dressed in fancy gowns, while she was just wearing jeans and a white shirt.
