However, Helen Petersen was not the junior agent who always followed Arie’s arrangements. Helen was the boss of the talent agency. 

The previous agent offended Carlos at the cemetery and got expelled from Hiyon. Helen was displeased with Averie for causing her to lose a cheap and obedient agent. 

Reluctantly, she had to accompany Averie herself. 

Yet, she had two top–tier male celebrities under her guidance, who were her prized assets and significant money–makers for the company. 

Considering that Averie’s focus wouldn’t be on the entertainment industry after she was about to get married, Helen wasn’t as devoted when negotiating resources for Averie. 

This time, she managed to secure an endorsement deal for Averie with an international skincare brand at a rate lower than that of top–6er female stars. 

But Averie messed it up. 

How Could Helen not be furious? 

However, seeing Carlos present, Helen didn’t dare to act too recklessly. She greeted him obsequiously and allowed Averie to pull her to the aisle 

Unexpectedly, the soundproofing of the hospital corridor was not great, and her words were heard by the people in front of the operating room:

She looked sullen, as if someone had just made her cost a leg.

Averie’s tearful voice intermittently reached them. “Sorry, Helen, it’s all my fault. Can you try to talk to the brand again?” 

“This is the result of my discussion. They agreed to let us off with only half of the compensation, considering my reputation.” 

I’ll pay this money. Can you give me two days? I’ll try to gather.. 

Before Averie could finish saying “gather money,” she received a solid slap from Amirah. In the quiet hospital at midnight, the sound was particularly loud.

Amirah bit Averte so hard alipt as if Averio was not her daughter but an enemy. 

The Powell Family couldn’t stop her, and even Helen, frightened, hastily left, leaving a partitig remark. “A million dollari at the latest. I have to get the money the day after tomorrow

“Shut up. I’m not dead yet. Why are you crying and saying this?” 

Even though they grew up together, Carlos wouldn’t turn a blind eye to Averie when she was faced with such a calamity 

He let Avere support herself on his arm as they sat down on the seats in front of the operating room, then turned to ask Helen. What endorsement? Why did it go wrong? What about the endorsement contract?”
