Love Contract novel Chapter 318

Eight years ago in Los Angeles, USA.

"Miss Selah, what do you think of being nominated for the international prize?"

"Of course, I am very happy." Selah, 20 years old, added with an excited smile, "As a rookie in the entertainment industry, it's beyond my expectation to be nominated in such a grand award. Thank you for all your support!"

"I hope you can bring more and better works to us in the future, Miss Selah."

"Thank you!" Selah nodded with a smile.

"Okay, cut! The interview is over!"

Selah took a deep breath, and stood up from the sofa. Then, she said goodbye to the staff with a smile.

Jerry, her agent, walked up to her and put the coat on her shoulders. "You did a good job just now."

"Thank you," Selah responded while smiling. "I could finally have a good rest today."

"Actually, I have other plans for you tonight," said Jerry.

"Really? What are they?" After a short pause, Selah added, "I was too tired after attending the ceremony yesterday. I almost forgot what my schedule is today."

"There is a celebration party at a private club in Chinatown tonight." As the two walked out, Jerry explained further, "The guests are all big shots in the film and television industry. Domestic directors will be there as well. One of them said he wanted to meet you particularly."

Selah's heart skipped a beat. She knew how complicated the entertainment industry could get, but...

"Jerry," she paused for a second and continued, "I've told you many times before. I just want to focus on my work. I can share half of my income with you as your payment, but I don't want to do anything else. I think you know what I mean."

Jerry stopped in tracks and smiled at her fawningly. "That boss wants to meet you in person to see if there's any role in his invested movie that may suit you. Why are you so afraid?"

"We can talk about the movie in a meeting room. Why do we have to go to a — "

Jerry interrupted midsentence, "It seems that you still don't understand the rules of this industry! We can't go anywhere we want. In this world, those rich people are the only ones who have the right to speak!"

Selah smiled sarcastically in response. How could she not know?

"Don't forget who saved you last time," Jerry said in a heavy tone. "If it weren't for me, you would have been sold as an item to several people. Have you forgotten about it?"

Remembering that night, Selah bit her lips and replied, "No, I didn't forget. Jerry, thank you for saving me, paying for my debt, and taking me into the entertainment industry."

"Then tonight—"

"I will go with you."

"Good." Jerry nodded in satisfaction and smiled at her. "You've always been a good girl. The boss is also a Chinese. He has been working alone here for many years. It's inevitable that he is feeling sentimental and lonely. That must be the reason why he would go to a private club designed in Chinese style. There are many people who will attend the party, don't worry."

"Okay." Feeling reassured, Selah nodded and got into the car.

Inside, she held her arms, pursed her lips, and closed her eyes to rest.

Jerry was not only her agent, but also her savior. If it were not for him, she would have never paid off her father's debt. Moreover, he was the one who helped her become a famous star. Thanks to him, her dream of starting a new life was now in development.

As long as Jerry did not ask too much, she would agree with everything he asked of her.

In the general manager's office of the headquarters of GM Universing Studios.

Knock. Knock. Knock.
