Chapter68

    She finally got why the name on the business card seemed so familiar the first time she saw it.


    Sure, Century Entertainment had been around for less time than her father’s


    Starlight International Group, but in a few short years, it’s churned out heaps of top celebrities. In terms


    of status, Century Entertainment has already outshone Starlight International Group.


    Although the twopanies seemed to coexist harmoniously in recent years, they were actually


    butting heads behind the scenes, vying for theaters and resources without mercy.


    Agnes said, “My dad mentioned Mr. Ivan once and said you were a young go–getter.”


    The man cracked a smile and said, “The Magical Romance of Cindere is the first major domestic fant


    asy blockbuster and also the first film investment from Starlight International Group and Century


    Entertainment after years of rivalry. The male lead is set, and we’re currently holding nationwide auditio


    ns for the female lead. Director Zoe took a liking to you, Miss Agnes. Would you be interested in getting


    involved in the production?”

    Agnes was


    puzzled. Starlight International Group and Century Entertainment were at odds, and now they’re cob


    orating?


    Agnesughed awkwardly, saying. That was a misunderstanding; I identally walked in there; I have


    no acting experience.”


    “Sometimes, unexpected things can be a blessing. I trust Director Zoe’s judgment, and you fit the imag


    e of the role perfectly.”


    Agnes shook her head and said, “I’m sorry, I’m not really into acting.”


    He chuckled and said, “If you’re not up for it, I won’t push. If you change your mind, you


    know where to find me.”


    Agnes nodded reluctantly. “Anyway, I came to give you this.”


    She took out an envelope from her bag and wrote, “I identally scratched your car; I’m truly sorry. He


    re’s twenty grand, do you need to count it?”


    He took the envelope and said, “No need; I trust you, Miss Agnes.”


    Feeling like she’d aplished her mission for the day, Agnes was about to make her exit when she h


    eard Beatrice’s voice from a distance: “Sis?”


    Agnes turned around to see Beatrice walking towards her, arm in arm, with a big smile on her face.


    But Beatrice’s eyes were on the man. “Mr. Ivan, remember me? I’m Beatrice; we met at the charity g


    two weeks ago.”


    He replied tly. Your mother is a big star, and you look just like her. Of course I remember.”


    Beatrice looked pleased, but he clearly wasn’t interested in chatting. He turned to Agnes and


    said, “Miss Agnes, I’ve got stuff to deal with. I’ll be leaving now Please consider what I said earlier.”


    Agnes nodded. “You go ahead.”


    After he left, Beatrice immediately pulled her hand away from Agnes and even wiped it on her dress in


    disgust


    Fuming, she said to Agnes, “How do you know Ivan, Agnes? You sure know how to work, men.”


    Agnes was used to Beatrice’s mood swings. “Beatrice, I don’t owe you any exnations.”


    “What did you give him? What did he want you to consider? What’s going on between you two? Agnes,


    are you trying to break into showbiz? Don’t get your hopes up.”


    Agnes didn’t want to deal with her anymore and walked away.


    Bitterly, Beatrice stomped her foot and said, “Agnes, who the hell are you? How can you just ignore me


    like that?”
