Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 394

Even though some influencers had a bad reputation, they still had a huge following! A few of the extras who were bolder immediately rushed forward to stand in front of Elspeth. They were waiting for her instructions. Elspeth glanced around for a while to see a girl standing in a corner nearby. She seemed rather familiar-looking, but she remained silent while everyone else chattered about the idea of becoming an influencer. The girl was the only one whose gaze remained cold as she continued to memorize the script in her hands.

The girl seemed pretty good-looking, and she had a few lines in the show. It was clear that she didn’t have a lot of parts as her script was made up of only a few pieces of paper. The girl had a clean and fresh look; she seemed to stand out among the rest of the girls who had thick makeup on their faces. Furthermore, the girl had a mole on the corner of her eye, which made her look rather intriguing. The mole made her seem a little less innocent and slightly more seductive. She was the first girl that Elspeth was drawn to.

Elspeth walked over before squatting down to come to the same level as the girl. “What’s your name?” Elspeth asked with a smile. The girl didn’t seem too comfortable with strangers, and she retreated backward before responding to Elspeth. “My name’s Agnes Braille.”

Agnes. What a nice name, Elspeth thought. “Would you like to take a walk with me?” Elspeth raised an eyebrow while glancing at the girl amusedly. Agnes got to her feet before she rolled her sleeves up. “No, thanks. I’m a little occupied as I have a scene to shoot later.”

“What sort of character are you playing in the show?” Elspeth smiled.

“I’m just a nobody in the show. Please stop asking about me, Miss Lynwood.” Agnes spoke in a firm tone, which made Elspeth admire her even more. Elspeth was certain that a girl with a personality like Agnes would be able to go places in Elspeth’s company. The more Elspeth spoke to Agnes, the more Elspeth wanted to work with Agnes.

“You’ll only remain as a nobody if you stay here, but if you come with me, I’ll turn you into an influencer who gets a lot more attention and recognition,” Elspeth uttered. Agnes shook her head before responding in a rather exasperated tone. “That’s fine. I’ve never wanted to be an influencer. I’d just like to focus on acting my part.” It turned out that Agnes wasn’t interested in fame at all.

Elspeth rubbed her chin as she thought about the situation. It’s going to be hard to lure her in if she doesn’t want to be famous. Elspeth hesitated for a while before she spoke again. “You enjoy acting, huh?”

Agnes seemed to be more engaged in their conversation when Elspeth talked about acting. “Yeah. My dream isn’t to be some influencer but to be a good actress.”

Elspeth leaned closer to the girl before smiling at her. “Do you know who I am, then?”

“Miss Elspeth Lynwood, the CEO of Azure Corporation,” Agnes replied.

“Did you know that I also have an entertainment company?”

Agnes’ gaze lit up for a moment before she returned to her usual, calm self. “I know about the company, but I also understand that your company wouldn’t hire extras and freelancing actresses like me.” She had heard of Luminous Entertainment, of course—tons of people were desperate to enter that company. Artists from that company were practically guaranteed their pathway to fame once they did a few shows. However, Agnes felt like this was still a faraway dream for her.

Elspeth nodded thoughtfully. “You’re right. I wouldn’t hire some random extra, but I would definitely hire someone famous.” In other words, the company would consider hiring an individual as long as the individual was famous enough. Agnes understood what Elspeth meant at that point, and she turned around while clenching her fists. “If I accept your offer to be an influencer, and if I become famous enough, are you saying that Luminous Entertainment will take me in?”

Agnes made things clear and straightforward from the start, and Elspeth appreciated that about her. “That’s right. I promise that I’ll allow you to work as an actress in Luminous Entertainment as long as you show me some results and recognition as an influencer,” Elspeth uttered. Her offer was too good for Agnes to reject any longer.

The girl was furious to hear this. I think we’re both equally good-looking. Why is Agnes much luckier than me?! “How is that possible? Why would that woman be so nice to you if you didn’t know her?”

Agnes shook her head. “I don’t know, either.” The girl knew that she couldn’t continue to express her jealousy, so she changed her approach instead. “Why don’t you recommend me to her as well? I can go along with you, and I can watch out for you in case you get scammed. We’ll both have each other’s backs,” the girl offered.

Agnes was a smart woman, and she knew where she stood in this situation. “I don’t think I have the right to say much. Why don’t you ask her yourself?”

The girl was annoyed at how Agnes refused to speak up for her, but she still forced a smile onto her face. “You guys look closer, and it seems like she likes you more. Perhaps she’d listen to you if you were the one talking,” the girl suggested again.

Agnes looked up before speaking in a firm tone. “My relationship with Miss Lynwood isn’t what you think it is…”

The girl was still convinced that Agnes was just faking it. She just doesn’t want me to be famous! The girl finally decided to just release her rage by giving Agnes a shove. “I knew it. I always thought you were a good friend, and I was always worried about how you might get scammed. It seems like I don’t mean all that much to you! You’re not even willing to put a good word in for me.” The girl spoke with intense passion as if someone had committed a huge sin against her.

Elspeth, who was just standing beside them, overheard their whole conversation. “She didn’t use any connections with me. Agnes simply stood out to me.”
