Chapter 286
What was supposed to happen happened after all. Everyone present was super pumped.
It was the critical time for these two ladies, either to start a showdown or to reconcile.
“Mamie once said, if I could win the best actress, she would quit showbiz. I hope she can keep her word
The whole venue was boiling again. Agnes, in the end, chose to confront.
Everyone had to admire Ms. Pritchard. She obviously could choose to keep a low profile, but she chose to be straightforward and provocative. She didn’t even leave Mamie any way out.
Now, with all eyes on her, if Mamie doesn’t respond, she might be seen as coward, afraid to keep her promise.
But, if Mamie really chose to quit showbiz, the loss would be too big for her.
The camera then switched to Mamie
Behind the stage, the big screen showed the face-off between the two, one icy, one calm.
The silence in the venue was filled with tension
Just when everyone was in the dark about what would happen next, a video suddenly popped up on the big screen at the back of the stage.
The video was crystal clear, featuring Mamie and Agnes, dressed in the gowns they were wearing now.
Clear dialogue came from the video
“So, that’s why you deliberately stepped on my dress on the red carpet and made me look like a fool in public?”
“You brought it on yourself. Mamie, you might be a superstar in other people’s eyes, but to me, you’re nothing”
“Agnes, I can’t believe you’d do this! And that crazy fan who wanted to push me down the stairs a while ago, did you arrange it?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about”
“Agnes, stop pretending. The security in the Century Building is tight, not even a fly can get in. I later checked the elevator footage, it was you and that fan who went upstairs together. Agnes, were you trying to kill me?”
“Without evidence, how can you accuse me?”
“Agnes, I know exactly what you’ve done. I won’t let you off easily. You said if you didn’t win the best actress, you’d quit showbiz.”
“Td like to see who’s going to quit showbiz, you or me.”
This was the conversation between Agnes and Mamie in the dressing room just now.
Almost everyone was stunned.
This was too dramatic
