Chapter 38
It was no less than a torment.
“See? It’s not that I don’t want you to work as an agent.
The truth is, my hands are tied.
I can’t force anyone to choose you.
” Donna added hypocritically, “How about this? Everyone here is signed under SJ Entertainment.
So, they have no choice but to follow the company’s arrangement.
You can pick any of them.
”
Ariana pursed her lips and looked around the crowd.
They all avoided her eyes for fear of getting picked.
Donna had made a smart move.
She knew that even if Ariana ended up picking an artist today, she would have a hard time because that person would loathe her.
It would be a bad start for her.
Ariana was stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea.
It was obvious that Donna set her up just because she was desperate to work.
Half a loaf is better than no bread, so Ariana just couldn’t give up the chance.
She walked forward, glancing at the crowd with her cold eyes.
“Guys, I understand your fears.
Although I’m new to this, it doesn’t mean that I have no knowledge or resources.
Isn’t it better to bank on me than wait until God knows when? I’m willing to put in my time, resources, and attention to better anyone who decides to work with me.
How are you so sure that an experienced agent would make things work for you? For all we know, you could end up with an agent that is already managing many other artists.
You won’t get the best service if you find yourself in that situation.
Think about it.
”
Many of the trainees suddenly turned their gazes back to her.
“No one knows it all.
You and I are all trying to build our careers from the ground up.
Other experienced agents expect the artists to be docile and tractable.
But I’m different.

I believe.
everyone is equal no matter their position.
Humility is the key to forming a good and long partnership.
I won’t force you to do what you don’t want to do.
I’ll only guide and advise you every step of the way.
It’s left for you to do what’s best for your career.
Please give me a chance,” Ariana continued in a sincere tone, Her heartfelt words got to some people.
Particularly, those trainees who had been on the waiting list for ages and were already losing hope.
Hush whispers filled the room again.
A man and a woman suddenly stepped forward.
Before they could say anything.
Donna spoke up.
“You want her to bé your agent? Keep in mind that if anything goes wrong, it’s on you and her.
The company won’t clean up the mess after you.
”
This statement sounded like a threat.
The two trainees immediately stepped backward.
“What do you mean by that?” Ariana asked Donna huffily.
“I said what I said.
Anyway, there’s no rush.
I have got a new idea.
A mischievous smirk tugged at the corners of Donna’s mouth.
“There’s a star signed to SJ Entertainment who needs an agent.
She has her own resources and connections.
You two would make a great team.
”
“Really? That’s so generous of you!” Ariana commented sarcastically.
Donna lowered her head to take a pretentious look at her watch and said, “She should be in the meeting room now.
Come with me.
”
She dismissed all the trainees and walked out.
Ariana followed her.
She wasn’t going to stop now even though the going was tough.
”
Donna took her to the meeting room.
As soon as Ariana entered, she saw a beautiful woman sitting on the sofa with a cigarette in her hand.
This woman was none other than Sarah Flynn, an over-the-hill pop star, who was currently involved in an extramarital affair scandal.
