Heartstrings on Fire Chapter 388

Chapter 388 

Jared’s voice was chill as ice. Don’t worry your pretty little head about it. She has to pay the piper” 

Agnes really didn’t want to stick her nose in this mess 

Beatrices actions were way out of line, and she couldn’t just sit fight anymore. 

Beatrice was all grown up now and ought to own up to her 

Agnes had tried to stay out of the family drama, but retuming to the fim set, it was dear that news had spread like wildfire 

The gossip was relentless. Beatrice had been arrested night after landing back in town, and someone had tipped off the authorities. She now faced charges of assault, pressed by Jared. The media reveled in the juicy details of Beatrice’s envy towards Agnes, her hiring goons for malevolent deeds, and even stories of her misconduct at school 

Almost overnight. Bestrior’s reputation was in ruins. The film school she attended expelled her, and the few gigs the had in the pipeline, like small ads and web senes dropped her instantly 

It was shocking for many to process how a young girl, not even in her twenties, could be so malevolent 

To make matters worse, Jared’s high-profile lawyer swiftly secured a three-year sentence for Beatrice after just one trial 

Agnes was taken aback by Jared’s ruthlecèness in exposing all the sordid details to the public Beatrice had aspired to make a mark in the entertainment industry. but now, her prospects looked bleak. Her academic and professional ties were severed 

Throughout the chaos, Laura tried maching out to Agnes multiple times, but she never answered. Agnes was engrossed in her work, and not even Preston, her own father made an attempt to contact her in the part month. 

Today marked a milestone for Agnes as she completed all her film scenes. The crew celebrated her dedication with a wrap party. As the night drew to a close and farewells were exchanged. Mamie presented Agnes with a gift, a beautiful diamond brooch. 

She said. “This was a gift Jared gave me when I won my first award, I’ve been hanging on to it. But now I’m giving it back to you, I’ve let go of Jared completely, i wish you both well. But Agnes, you’re too soft hearted, you were bullied by me befo, how you’re being pushed around by your wicked sister you have to face all of this, remember my words, don’t be a pushover, it’s a dog-eat-dog world, especially this showbiz, you have to be kind, but also have to have some backbone, or else you’ll get walked all over. Of course, I believe Jared will stand up for you, but in the end, you have to fend for yourself in this world.” 

Agnes was touched, replying. “Mamie, thank you, I’m sorry too.” 

Agnes had been meaning to apologize to Mamie 

Because before. Beatrice had drugged the food on set, aiming to set her up, but ended up hurting Mamie 

It led to her sleeping with Ivan. 

From then on Agnies noticed Mamie and Ivan’s relationship had changed completely 

Now they were pretty much secret lovers 

However 

Sometimes Agnes could tell they were both in pain, being bound by morality and social taboos 

They had the title of siblings and could never be open and free like regular lovers. 

Mamie just smiled and said. “You don’t have to feel guilty about this, it’s not your fault. Besides, I should thank her for bursting this bubble, otherwise, I might never have taken this step”
