Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 289

"Your reasoning sounds plausible, but you have no solid evidence to back up your claims."

Agnes just chuckled, not rushing to offer any proof. Instead, she blurted out all her thoughts, "Ever since Kingdom Heart, I've had always felt like someone was manipulating everything, and that someone is right beside me. At first, I didn't know his purpose, but as similar incidents kept happening, I finally understood that- this guy just wanted to discredit me. So, I decided to play along with his scheme to lure him out."

"You think I'm targeting you for my sister's career? Agnes, don't forget, it's me who got you into showbiz, made you star in Cinderella, and step by step turned you into an eye-catching star. If I wanted to tarnish your reputation, why would I do all that?"

Agnes said calmly, "Ruining my reputation is just your means, not your end. Your real goal is to wreck my marriage with Jared."

Ivan laughed, "The more you explain, the more puzzled I get."

"All your actions were aimed to shatter the trust between Jared and me. You knew Jared would get involved in the Kingdom Heart deal. You knew I would suspect Mamie, but Jared wouldn't, and that would cause a rift between us. You succeeded. That necklace indeed put our marriage in a trust crisis, but we made up. Then, through that crazy fan, you exposed Mamie's past with Jared, trying again to break us. I bet you've got more plans, but I have no clue what you're gonna do next. You insisted on me signing the contract, even trapped me in Century Entertainment with a hefty ad fee, just to keep me near so that you can keep track of my every move and find opportunities."
