Chapter 373
Agnes actually felt kinda sorry for her, but Beatrice’s scheming was just too nasty
Resorting to drugging people, how extreme she was!
She deserved a lesson
Who knows what she might pull next?
Agnes had been watching from the sidelines for a while but didn’t step in
This only made Beatrice hate her more.
She was more convinced than ever that it was all Agnes doing
Mamie clearly had no intention of letting her off the hook
As Mamie raised her hand again,
Beatrice gripped Mamie’s hand tight, 1 quit, okay? Mamie, you wait. I’ll make you pay for today’s humiliation.”
With that, Beatrice shook off Mamie’s hand, kicked aside some props, and took off
Everyone was left with mixed feelings.
But hey, showbiz is always messy, this kind of stuff is all part of the package.
That evening. Jared Whitfield showed up.
He treated the entire cast to dinner
He booked the largest private room at the Ford Hotel.
The crew couldn’t stop complimenting Agnes.
“Agnes, you’re one lucky duck”
“Mr. Whitfield really spoils you”
“Agner, we owe you big time today.”
Beatrice sequestered herself in the dressing room.
As Medina was leaving, she said to Beatrice, “Aren’t you joining your brother-in-law’s dinner?” Brother-in-law! She hated that title.
Agnes was just nauseating, always making sure everyone knew she was Mrs. Whitfield.
Constantly having Jared treat the crew to dinner, cozying up to them.
All she wanted was to show off her status and bask in their insincere flattery
To Beatrice, it was all a big show, a power play!
She couldn’t stand it any longer
Even if Laura said it wasn’t the right time yet, she couldn’t hold back!
She was done waiting
She couldn’t bear watching Agnes bask in her glory while she was being bullied!
She’d leave the crew tomorrow.
She wouldn’t let Agnes off the hook
Beatrice suddenly got up and headed straight for the Ford Hotel.
By the time Beatrice barged into the private room, Agnes and Jared were already gone
Medina mentioned that Jared was swamped today, only in S City for a meeting, and had to rush back tonight.
Agnes went to see him off at the airport.
Everyone was envious that Jared could still make time for his wife despite his busy schedule.
Beatrice immediately headed for the airport
As luck would have it, Jared hadn’t gone through security when Beatrice arrived.
They were talking in the airport lobby.
They looked very intimate.
Jared seemed to be about to go through security.
They seemed reluctant to part
Jared hugged Agnies for a moment before turning to leave.
But after only a couple steps, he turned back and kissed Agnes deeply.
