Chapter 206
Agnes was deeply disappointed.
Maybe it was Jared’s frosty tone that shattered her hopes.
But she might have really bothered him
“Well, you go on with your stuff”
Jared grunted a response and hung up the call.
Agnes held the phone, feeling her heart sink a little more
She just missed him, just wanted to hear his voice.
Meanwhile…
Jared stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window in his office on the 99th floor of Tim Tower.
In his hand was a half–burned cigarette.
He rarely smoked.
In the hazy smoke, his face looked incredibly indifferent.
The scene on the balcony just now seemed to reappear before his eyes, his fingers clenched tight, feeling more irritable than ever.
He didn’t expect….
The next day was the campus festival of Lakeside College.
The whole Lakeside College campus was very lively
Today Lakeside College was open to the public, students from other schools could come and visit.
Of course, the highlight was the campus festival performance competition among 32 colleges.
Agnes’s drama was scheduled to start at three in the afternoon.
It was the last performance of the whole competition.
Before going on stage, Agnes kept looking at her phone backstage.
She was wondering why Jared hadn’t texted her yet.
He said he would come…
Maybe he was really too busy.
But even if he couldn’t come, he should have told her Agnes was hesitant about whether to call Jared.
But she was afraid of being rejected like last night.
She didn’t know when she became so cautious
What a headache.
“Hey, isn’t that our star, Agnes? You’re so unrecognizable in your costume, it’s a pity you didn’t major in acting.”
A teasing voice came from behind her.
Agnes turned around to see Cecile strutting over, surrounded by a group of girls.
Agnes frowned and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Cecile said with her arms crossed, “I’m here to watch your performance. Don’t look at me like that, I’m here to congratulate you. Give it your best shot, I’ll
watch till the end.”
Then, Ryder came over.
He calmly walked up to Cecile and said, “Don’t stir up trouble”
Seeing Ryder, Cecile grinned, “Ryder, you’re looking hot today. I’ll send you flowers after the performance.”
“No need,” Ryder replied, his expression cold
Kerri ran over, “Stop chatting, it’s our turn. Get ready to go on stage.”
Agnes didn’t have time to think about anything else and immediately got ready.
A girl next to Cecile said, “Ryder is protecting her. Agnes is so lucky. She stole your role, and if she gets noticed by someone in the entertainment industry today, her future career will be smoother. I saw several well–known agents are here.”
A strange smile appeared at the corner of Cecile’s mouth. “The performance hasn’t started yet, who knows how it will turn out, success or failure, everything is uncertain”
Agnes, you stole my role and the guy I like, I’ll make sure you remember this day forever.
The performance was about to begin, and the lights in the auditorium gradually dimmed.
The curtain slowly pulled back, and the music started to play…
Juliet’s family was distinguished, Her good reputation has spread all over the city”
Juliet fell in love with the man her family hates. She shouldn’t have met him in the first place, now it’s too late.”
As the narration went on, the characters came out one after another…
