Harry took Ivy to the meeting room, where Ivy's contract was on the table.
"Mr. Gardner, has everyone else signed their contracts?"
Harry nodded. "Yeah. The others have begun working."
Ivy picked the contract up and read through it.
"I've already sent your dad a copy." He handed her a pen. "All you need to do is sign."
Ivy accepted the pen but insisted on reading the contract. "This is the first time I'm signing a contract for work. I'm excited and want to see what's written."
Ivy was paid when she worked as a servant for the Woods, but she did not get to sign any contract at the time.
"What's your plan for the future?" Harry asked. "Do you plan on working in this field in the long run?"
Ivy signed her name on the contract and said, "I don't want to lie to you, Mr. Gardner. I haven't planned that much ahead, actually. All I know is that I want to be a TV host right now. I don't know if I will change my mind after I graduate."
Harry chuckled. "I can understand. Your family wouldn't want you to be a TV host for life."
Ivy shook her head. "It has nothing to do with my family." She paused, before correcting herself, "Well, it's not entirely unrelated. They respect my wishes, so I get to choose my own path."
"You are lucky," he said. "I will send you the recording of your test session. You can show it to your parents."
"Thank you, Mr. Gardner."
"You're welcome. By the way, it's best that you keep a distance from your senior." Harry rubbed his nose and lowered his voice. "She is quite talented, but..." He tried to phrase his words.
