Chapter 257
T
The word jealousy’ exploded in Agnes’ mind, it was like a light bulb moment.
Agnes had always thought it was Jared’s distrust that caused her pain.
But it wasn’t that Jared didn’t trust her, it was just that his trust in her wasn’t as unconditional as it was with Mamie
His trust in her came with conditions.
Jared thought she lacked the capability, the guts, but his attitude towards Mamie was different.
His trust in Mamie was as unconditional as his trust in Ivan, it was based on mutual understanding and rapport.
That made Agnes feel even more miserable
Agnes didn’t really care if Mamie had actually framed her.
What she cared about was Jared’s unconditional understanding and trust in Mamie
In the end, she was simply jealous.
Yes, very jealous.
After hanging up the phone, Agnes lay in bed staring at the ceiling
So what if she was jealous?
It was something she couldn’t change.
It was the accumulation of their years of feelings.
Agnes buried her head in the quilt, feeling so upset that she wanted to cry
The next day. Agnes went to the company
At nine in the morning, she was to be interviewed by an entertainment show.
After Agnes got into the elevator, the door was about to close when a guy wearing a baseball cap and carrying a toolbox walked in.
The elevator at Century Building could only be used by company staff and required a staff card to operate.
Century Entertainment was an entertainment company with many celebrities, so strict restrictions were put in place to prevent harassment by journalists and fans.
The guy got into the elevator and stood still in the corner.
Agnes found it a bit odd and asked, “Where’s your card? You need to swipe it to select your floor”
The guy’s voice was low, “Could you press the 26th floor for me? I’m here to fix some pipes”
The 26th floor housed the artist studios, Agnes was heading there as well.
Today’s interview was special. The show interviewing Agnes was called ‘Celebrity Family’ which focused on the daily lives and personal relationships of celebrities. At nine o’clock, Agnes arrived on time with her make-up done.
When she entered the interview room, she was taken aback.
Sitting in the guest seat was Jared.
When Ivan had arranged the work, Agnes had thought it was just a small interview and had no idea Jared would be there.
The press was taking pictures of Jared. Jared was indifferent, just casually reading the interview script, and chatting with the host.
Seeing Agnes come in, he stood up and naturally walked towards her
In fact, the moment Agnes saw Jared, she understood.
It was definitely Ivan’s hope that through this interview, she could have a chance to have a good chat with Jared
