Chapter 92
Agnes was woken up by Jared, who had just finished taking a shower and put on some clean clothes.
As he was buttoning his shirt cuffs, he strolled over to Agnes and gave her a light smack on her butt, seemingly in a good mood. “Lazybones, time to get up
Agnes was already awake, but she was hiding under the blanket, deep in thought over a serious matter
Did Jared really get drunk last night? The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she got. Jared lifted the blanket and said. ‘If you don’t get up now you’ll be late. It’s your first day at work.” Agnes suddenly remembered that she was supposed to start shooting today and she sat up.
All her clothes from yesterday were no good. Was she supposed to go out in those?
Jared read Agnes‘ mind. As he was looking in the mirror, he said, “Your clothes are on your bedside.”
Agnes turned her head and sure enough, there was a set of brand–new clothes. They must have been delivered by Jared’s assistant, but Agnes had no idea when they came
Agnes quickly got dressed and Jared was ready to go.
I’ll drive you to Lakeside College,” Jared said.
“No need,” Agnes immediately waved her hand. “I’ll take a cab. It’ll be a hassle if we’re seen together”
Jared had suddenly become an investor in a TV series. They had dinner together last night, and if people found out she was going to work in the investor’s car this morning. she would be in real trouble.
“What’s there to be afraid of? If we’re found out, let’s just make our relationship public, Jared said
If Jared had said this before, Agnes would have been happy. But now, after finding out about Mamie, she still had a knot in her heart
She hadn’t decided what to do in the future.
“Let’s not cause any problems for the crew” Agnes said. ‘I’ll get going.”
Agnes left as if she was fleeing Jared became gloomy.
Agnes was melancholy all the way to work. Their relationship had finally improved a bit, and she finally had time to think it over.
But then last night happened… Why couldn’t she resist temptation?
Agnes arrived fairly early, but Ava was already in the makeup room.
“Agnes, why didn’t you come back last night? Your phone was off too,” Ava asked when she saw Agnes.
“My phone died. I stayed at a friend’s house last night,” Agnes replied.
“Agnes, you must have been out partying. You don’t have any friends. I can’t believe you’ve become like this, a disgrace to the Pritchard family.”
Beatrice, who was also in the makeup room, raised her voice on purpose.
Everyone in the crew knew both sisters from the Pritchard family were part of the show. Beatrice’s part in the drama wasn’t big. She wasn’t even supposed to be in the crev yet, but she showed up on the first day
