Chapter 130 Agnes figures if Jared wants to play loveyâdovey in front of her, he should knock himself out.
Maybe after heâs done expressing his feelings, heâll be willing to sign the divorce papers.
Agnes just wants to quit the drama.
In the evening, a truck pulled up to the set.
Boxes and boxes of seafood were unloaded.
The crew even set up an openâair barbecue.
Ava took a look and came back, all impressed, âWow, Mr. Whitfield really went all out. Australian lobsters, abalones, mussels, and whole tunas, all brought in by the truckload. I heard he even hired a Michelinâstarred chef. Weâre really in for a treat tonight.â
The feast was set up at the Lakeside College field.
It was a sight to behold. Long tables covered in white tablecloths, exuding an exotic charm.
A barbecue area, a main course area, various drinks, and red wine were on the tables.
Everyone from the crew gathered, singing, dancing, and enjoying the barbecue. It was a real hoot.
But Mamie and Jared were nowhere to be seen.
No surprises there.
With her high status, Mamie wouldnât be caught dead mingling with the crowd.
Maybe theyâre at some posh restaurant right now, enjoying steak and violin serenades.
The girls from the crew were all gathered, enjoying the seafood feast.
May Kelly took a bite of sea urchin sashimi and praised, âThis is the freshest sea urchin Iâve ever had. We have Mamie to thank for this. Mr. Whitfield is such a big spender. I wonder when heâll marry Mamie. I canât wait to see what the wedding will be like.â
Beatrice scoffed from the side, âHavenât you ever had anything nice? Youâre swooning over a sea urchin.â
âBeatrice, why are you so mean?â
âAm I wrong?â Beatrice clearly had a bone to pick.
*Beatrice, it seems like youâre feeling down this afternoon. Was it because Mr. Whitfield didnât acknowledge you when you said hello? I know you have feelings for him, but unfortunately, heâs engaged to Mamieâ
Beatrice expressed her frustration by saying, âI donât appreciate how you spoke to me. The rumors about Mr. Whitfield marrying Mamie are unfounded and should not be taken seriouslyâ
âEveryone knows Mamie proposed. And now, on her first day on set, Jared throws this huge feast for everyone. Isnât it obvious?
Beatrice, you might have a powerful dad, but youâre no match for Mamieâ
âOne day, Iâll be even more famous than Mamie. One day, the woman by Jaredâs side will be me. Mark my words, you bunch of neverâwillâbeâs.â
With that, Beatrice stormed off.
Amelia broke down, âSheâs too much. She thinks she can do whatever she wants on set because sheâs Prestonâs daughter.
Sheâs just a supporting actress but more arrogant than the lead. Always bossing us around like weâre her servants. She thinks she owns the place.â
Someone tried to comfort her, âLet it go. Sheâs the daughter of the boss of Starlight International Group, and her momâs a famous actress. Sheâs been spoiled since she was a kid. We, who have no connections, just have to put up with it. Once youâre famous, you wonât have to put up with her anymore.â
Agnes watched, expressionless, not getting involved.
Except for Ava, she had no friends on the set.
Everyone thought Beatrice was the Pritchard familyâs golden child, trying to get on her good side while deliberately alienating Agnes.
But what Beatrice just said shocked Agnes.
She didnât expect Beatrice to have such high hopes for Jared.
If she ever finds out about her and Jaredâs brief marriage, who knows how sheâll react?
But no oneâs supposed to know, right?
