Chapter 1020
Conrad said helplessly, “I told you. Before you do anything, talk toabout it. But you just wouldn’t listen.”
Fia did not speak. She was only human and she didn’t ask him because she felt that he would. not agree to it.
Seeing her stay quiet, Conrad was afraid that she would get angry.
He explained, “There are many requirements for one to continue surviving in the entertainment circle. Once a mistake is made, it will be very hard to appear on screen again.
“Yeah, I know. What do we do now? Did Eileen get caught on camera? If she was, how would it be dealt with?” Fia was extremely anxious.
Conrad said, “It’s under investigation. We will have the results soon.”
That safternoon, Victor’s secretary cknocking on the door.
Fia was napping on the sofa. When she heard the secretary, she immediately sat up.

Conrad’s expression could not be read. “Let him in.”
Victor’s secretary entered respectfully, offering a large bag of documents with both hands.
“This is what my boss instructedto pass to Mr. Maxwell.”
Conrad was about to accept it when Fia grabbed his hand.
She glared at the secretary and asked, “What is it?”
Victor had wild ambitions. She was worried that he had gotten his secretary to bring over some dangerous items.
Conrad’s secretary felt helpless and could only open up the document bag to take out the things inside.
“All these are related to Miss Reid. You should understand after seeing them.”
Fia took a look and asked in astonishment, “Photos of Eileen beating up someone at night?”
Victor’s secretary raised the roll of film in his hand. “The negatives are all here.”
Fia looked at Conrad in surprised delight. “Is your cousin helping to solve the problem?”
“Yeah.” Conrad looked at the secretary, calm and collected. “What does he want?”
“Mr. Maxwell, you have misunderstood. He did not getto bring these here to threaten you.” He placed the things on the tea table orderly.
“He said that he is considered an experienced man in the entertainment circle and he is able to do more. These things are easily obtained. Just treat it as a little compensation for the help Mr. Maxwell had extended before this.”
Victor’s secretary made it sound very generous, but Victor’s original words were far from how he had painted them. 7/2
The original words of his boss were “Conrad is entering the entertainment circle for the first time, and the first artist he signed on is bringing his company down! How pitiful. Just give him a hand!”
He had changed the words spoken by his boss behind his back.
“Ha.” Conrad sneered. “Then shouldn’t I thank him?”
“There is no need. This is a very small matter to my boss. It cannot be matched to the help that Mr. Maxwell, you, have extended to him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Alright. I’ll accept the things. Go get busy.” Conrad knew that Victor could not have said such
nice words.
“Please rest assured. Miss Reid’s matter can be considered to be settled. She will be able to start work at any time.” After he finished speaking, Victor’s secretary smiled at the husband and wife duo, nodded at them, and left.
Fia took the photos he left. “Eileen and Sophia are quite amazing.”
Conrad swept her a glance from the corner of his eyes. “I’ll ring the company for a bit.”
“Then, can Eileen start work?” Fia asked.
Conrad replied, “Letask and see first.”
After returning from his call, he said to Fia, “It’s fine now. She can start work.”
“Alright, that’s great!” Fia ripped up the pictures and threw them into the trash. She felt insecure and personally burned them.
Conrad stood by the side watching, a little envious.
She was extremely concerned about Eileen’s matters.
“If you feel ill at ease leaving this to other people, you can get Mrs. Taylor or Mrs. Whitley to help you.”
“Either way, I’m free so I might as well do it myself.” Fia watched the last bit burn up, patted her hands, and stood up.
Conrad stretched out his hand, fearful that she would feel dizzy standing up after squatting down for so long.
