Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 86



Chapter 86

After confirming over and over again that Agnes would be the leading lady in "the Magical Romance of Cinderella", Beatrice's face turned sour as hell

When the kick-off ceremony ended, the crew led everyone on a tour of the shooting site.

When Agnes was alone in the lounge, Beatrice seized the opportunity to walk over and said, "Agnes, did you sleep with the director or get into some shady business with some big-shot investor? I can't believe you could stoop so low. You're despicable."

Agnes retorted, 'Beatrice, can you not be such a venomous snake? You're still young, don't always have the word 'despicable' on the tip of your tongue"

"Agnes, you're not one to give me a lecture. How else could you have landed the lead role if not for some underhanded tactics?"

Agnes replied. "Same as you, I got it through auditions"

"You think I'd buy that? You're not even from an acting background. Besides your body, what else could you possibly offer?"

Agnes responded coldly. "If you think I've had an illicit affair with the director, go ahead and blow the whistle, as long as you have proof."

Beatrice snorted. "You think I'm stupid? If I expose the director, where does that leave my acting career? But Agnes, I really admire you, even Director Zoe's old age doesn't faze you Dad would blow a fuse if h "Director Zoe, you're here." Agnes stood up straight, looking behind Beatrice.

Beatrice stiffened, her face turned ashen. She turned her head toward the door, but there was no one there

Beatrice was furious. She turned back to see a smirk on Agnes' face, "Agnes, you tricked me."

"What, you were hoping he was really here?"

Beatrice was quivering with rage

Agnes said calmly. "Don't talk behind people's backs. If you have the guts, say it to their faces. That's my advice to you as your elder sister." With that, Agnes left the lounge.

Beatrice was fuming. Every time she argued with Agnes, she never seemed to come out on top. Agnes seemed gentle, but she was cunning deep down. Just a few days ago at home, she didn't say anything when Beatrice announced she got the fourth female lead, even though Beatrice was the lead. Was Agnes mocking her then? Was she just playing her for a fool?

Thinking of this, Beatrice was gnashing her teeth.

Agnes, don't get cocky. How long you can stay as the lead is still up in the air. We will see...

After leaving Beatrice, Agnes ran into Ava

Tomorrow was the official start of shooting today everyone was excitedly touring the site.

Upon seeing Agnes, Ava walked over. "Agnes, we're bunking together. I was about to put away my luggage, wanna join?"

Agnes replied, 'Sure, why not."

Agnes moved all her stuff from Kerri's dorm into their new one.

By the time they finished, it was already 5 PM.

Though the dorm was in the school's dormitory area, it obviously had a late renovation, and the environment was refreshing and elegant

The dorm had bunk beds, Ava volunteered for the top bunk, leaving Agnes with the bottom bunk.

After tidying up, the two sat on the bed and started to chat.

Ava said, "I can't believe the Starlight International Group star is Justin. You know how fast my heart was beating when I saw him today? He's so handsome. I can't even look him in the eye, I'm afraid I might fa Agnes, munching on her chips, said, "Aren't you exaggerating a bit? He can't be that good-looking"

Ava retorted, "Have you seen anyone more handsome than Justin?"

Without hesitation, Agnes replied, "Of course."

The first face that popped into Agnes' mind was Jared's.
