Chapter 289


    “Your reasoning sounds usible, but you have no solid evidence to back up your ims,”


    Agnes just chuckled, not rushing to offer any proof. Instead, she blurted out all her thoughts, “Ever


    since Kingdom Heart, I’ve had always felt like someone was manipting everything, and that


    someone is right beside me. At first, I didn’t know his purpose, but as simr incidents kept happening,


    I finally understood that- this guy just wanted to discredit me. So, I decided to y along with his


    scheme to lure him out.”


    “You think I’m targeting you for my sister’s career? Agnes, don’t forget, it’s me who got you into


    showbiz, made you star in Cindere, and step by step turned you into an eye-catching star. If I wanted


    to tamish your reputation, why would I do all that?”


    Agnes said calmly, “Ruining my reputation is just your means, not your end. Your real goal is to wreck


    my marriage with Jared”


    Ivanughed, “The more you exin, the more puzzled I get.”


    “All your actions were aimed to shatter the trust between Jared and me. You knew Jared would get


    involved in the Kingdom Heart deal. You knew I would suspect Mamie, but Jared wouldn’t, and that


    would cause a rift between us. You seeded. That ne indeed put our marriage in a trust crisis,


    but we made up. Then, through that crazy fan, you exposed Mamie’s past with Jared, trying again to


    break us. I bet you’ve got more ns, but I have no clue what you’re gonna do next. You insisted on


    me signing the contract, even trapped me in Century Entertainment with a hefty ad fee, just to keep me


    near so that you can keep track of my every move and find opportunities.”


    Ivan seemed very patient, even a bit admiring. “You make some points. Go on!”


    “I have no idea what your next move is, so I gotta make the first move. Whatever result you want, I’ll


    give you. Now that I’ve lost everything, what’s left for you to worry about?”


    Ivan pped.


    He said appreciatively, “Agnes, I didn’t expect you to see through my strategies so clearly. Makes me


    feel like a loser. You’re right, I did all that. The charity banquet was my doing. Five years ago, I was the


    secret buyer of Kingdom Heart. I bribed the MC and the security chief to nt Kingdom Heart in your


    bag during the check. Oh, you probably didn’t know, that security chief is actually a top-notch magician,


    so nobody noticed it under their noses.


    Agnes’s expression gradually stiffened.


    Ivan continued, “You guessed right, the crazy fan incident was an ident, but indeed. I’ve been

    attacking you ever since, trying to destroy you. I just wanted to create a trust crisis between you and


    Jared. Once trust is gone from a marriage, it’s not far from falling apart”
