Chapter 394
Chapter 394 Just One Person
Even though some influencers had a bad reputation, they still had a huge following! A few of the extras
who were bolder immediately rushed forward to stand in front of Elspeth. They were waiting for her
instructions. Elspeth nced around for a while to see a girl standing in a corner nearby. She seemed
rather familiar-looking, but she remained silent while everyone else chattered about the idea of
bing an influencer. The girl was the only one whose gaze remained cold as she continued to
memorize the script in her hands.
The girl seemed pretty good-looking, and she had a few lines in the show. It was clear that she didn’t
have a lot of parts as her script was made up of only a few pieces of paper. The girl had a clean and
fresh look; she seemed to stand out among the rest of the girls who had thick makeup on their faces.
Furthermore, the girl had a mole on the corner of her eye, which made her look rather intriguing. The
mole made her seem a little less innocent and slightly more seductive. She was the first girl that
Elspeth was drawn to.
Elspeth walked over before squatting down toe to the same level as the girl. “What’s your name?”
Elspeth asked with a smile. The girl didn’t seem toofortable with strangers, and she retreated
backward before responding to Elspeth. “My name’s Agnes Braille.”
Agnes. What a nice name, Elspeth thought. “Would you like to take a walk with me?” Elspeth raised an
eyebrow while ncing at the girl amusedly. Agnes got to her feet before she rolled her sleeves up.
“No, thanks. I’m a little upied as I have a scene to shootter.”
“What sort of character are you ying in the show?” Elspeth smiled.
“I’m just a nobody in the show. Please stop asking about me, Miss Lynwood.” Agnes spoke in a firm
tone, which made Elspeth admire her even more. Elspeth was certain that a girl with a personality like
Agnes would be able to go ces in Elspeth’spany. The more Elspeth spoke to Agnes, the more
Elspeth wanted to work with Agnes.
“You’ll only remain as a nobody if you stay here, but if youe with me, I’ll turn you into an influencer
who gets a lot more attention and recognition,” Elspeth uttered. Agnes shook her head before
responding in a rather exasperated tone. “That’s fine. I’ve never wanted to be an influencer. I’d just like
to focus on acting my part.” It turned out that Agnes wasn’t interested in fame at all.
Elspeth rubbed her chin as she thought about the situation. It’s going to be hard to lure her in if she
doesn’t want to be famous. Elspeth hesitated for a while before she spoke again. “You enjoy acting,
huh?”

Agnes seemed to be more engaged in their conversation when Elspeth talked about acting. “Yeah. My
dream isn’t to be some influencer but to be a good actress.”
Elspeth leaned closer to the girl before smiling at her. “Do you know who I am, then?”
“Miss Elspeth Lynwood, the CEO of Azure Corporation,” Agnes replied.
“Did you know that I also have an entertainmentpany?”
Agnes’ gaze lit up for a moment before she returned to her usual, calm self. “I know about the
company, but I also understand that yourpany wouldn’t hire extras and frencing actresses like
me.” She had heard of Luminous Entertainment, of course—tons of people were desperate to enter
thatpany. Artists from thatpany were practically guaranteed their pathway to fame once they
did a few shows. However, Agnes felt like this was still a faraway dream for her.
Elspeth nodded thoughtfully. “You’re right. I wouldn’t hire some random extra, but I would definitely hire
someone famous.” In other words, thepany would consider hiring an individual as long as the
individual was famous enough. Agnes understood what Elspeth meant at that point, and she turned
around while clenching her fists. “If I ept your offer to be an influencer, and if I be famous
enough, are you saying that Luminous Entertainment will take me in?”
Agnes made things clear and straightforward from the start, and Elspeth appreciated that about her.
“That’s right. I promise that I’ll allow you to work as an actress in Luminous Entertainment as long as
you show me some results and recognition as an influencer,” Elspeth uttered. Her offer was too good
for Agnes to reject any longer.
“Alright. I’ll do it,” Agnes replied.
“Follow me backter,” Elspeth offered.
Agnes tightened her grip on the script in her hands. “But I’m not done ying this role,” she muttered
with a rather troubled look on her face. “You don’t have to y this character anymore. This role isn’t
going to highlight your strengths, so you’re never going to get famous by ying such roles,” Elspeth
exined.
The look in Agnes’ eyes darkened. She was well aware that ying such roles wouldn’t benefit her in
any way, yet a part of her wanted to take a risk. She was hoping that she could gain fame even by
starting as just an extra. “Trust me. I’ll turn you into the person you’ve always wanted to be.”
Elspeth’s gaze was burning with passion and hope as she looked into Agnes’ eyes.
It was then that Agnes finally threw her script onto the ground. “Okay. I got it. I’ll do as you say from
now on.” She understood that Elspeth could give her everything that she wanted, so she was willing to
obey whatever Elspeth said. Elspeth was pleased to hear this.
When Elspeth turned to look at the crowd of actors, she noticed two girls chit-chatting at the side.
There were looks of jealousy and resentment in their gazes. “She’s the only one I need,” Elspeth
announced. The girls in the crowd seemed even angrier after hearing Elspeth’s words. One of the girls
who seemed to have a decent rtionship with Agnes hurried forward while the others weren’t looking.
The girl felt the urge to cling to Agnes after seeing that Agnes had gotten herself such a good
opportunity.
“Did you know the CEO of Azure Corporation before this, Agnes? You guys seem pretty close. She
even smiled at you. It seems like all your hard work has paid off!” The girl appeared to be happy for
Agnes on the surface, but the jealousy in the girl’s eyes made her look like she was ready to swallow
Agnes alive.
“No. This is my first time meeting her. I didn’t know her before this,” Agnes answered.
The girl was furious to hear this. I think we’re both equally good-looking. Why is Agnes much luckier
than me?! “How is that possible? Why would that woman be so nice to you if you didn’t know her?”
Agnes shook her head. “I don’t know, either.” The girl knew that she couldn’t continue to express her
jealousy, so she changed her approach instead. “Why don’t you rmend me to her as well? I can
go along with you, and I can watch out for you in case you get scammed. We’ll both have each other’s
backs,” the girl offered.
Agnes was a smart woman, and she knew where she stood in this situation. “I don’t think I have the
right to say much. Why don’t you ask her yourself?”
The girl was annoyed at how Agnes refused to speak up for her, but she still forced a smile onto her
face. “You guys look closer, and it seems like she likes you more. Perhaps she’d listen to you if you
were the one talking,” the girl suggested again.
Agnes looked up before speaking in a firm tone. “My rtionship with Miss Lynwood isn’t what you
think it is…”
The girl was still convinced that Agnes was just faking it. She just doesn’t want me to be famous! The
girl finally decided to just release her rage by giving Agnes a shove. “I knew it. I always thought you
were a good friend, and I was always worried about how you might get scammed. It seems like I don’t
mean all that much to you! You’re not even willing to put a good word in for me.” The girl spoke with
intense passion as if someone hadmitted a huge sin against her.
Elspeth, who was just standing beside them, overheard their whole conversation. “She didn’t use any
connections with me. Agnes simply stood out to me.”
