Chapter 343
Ivan chuckled like a mischievous kid, “Haha, I was just kidding to see how good your English is. In fact, you speak English very well.”
Hamish jumped in to explain, “Actually, Mr. Bartley here is hinting that you should win the girl’s heart ASAP”
Farrell was thrilled to hear this.
He walked over to Ivan, gave him a light pat on the shoulder, “I’ll do my best to win Mamie’s heart soon.”
Ivan’s face darkened immediately, and Agnes finally got the meaning of you reap what you sow.
The dinner went smoothly, with everyone in high spirits.
Even though Hamish was rumored to be a strict person, he was actually quite fun and humorous in private.
He often cracked jokes, keeping everyone in stitches.
When it came to movies, he could talk on and on, without a pause.
Suddenly, the door to the private room swung open, revealing two familiar figures.
Agnes looked surprised seeing Laura and Beatrice walking in.
Laura, holding a glass of wine, strode in, Theard you’re here, Hamish. I had to come and toast you, after all, you directed my first film.”
Hamish was equally pleased to see Laura, “Long time no see, Laura! Your departure from the acting scene was a big loss for us. Come on, let’s drink up.” Agnes was surprised to find that Laura and Hamish were close
After finishing her drink, Laura said, “I overheard in the hallway that you are here. My daughter, Agnes, is going to star in your new movie. Hamish, you must take good care of her”
Laura was active in the industry and had connections with all the directors and producers
Over the years, she had been handling most of the affairs of the Starlight International Group. Everyone respected her and knew about the Pritchard family’s
situation.
Laura was Agnes’s stepmother.
Hamish responded, “I like Agnes. I’ve watched her TV dramas. She’s a promising newcomer. Leave her to me, and you can rest easy”
Laura poured another drink and toasted Hamish.
At this point, she gave Beatrice a signal.
Beatrice stepped forward promptly, “Hamish, I’m Beatrice, and you’re my idol, Im so happy to meet you today. Let me toast you too.”
Beatrice had just graduated from high school and was studying at an acting school.
