Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 217

Sitting up attentively, Jayleen said courteously, “Hello, is this Miss Selah Potter?”

“Yes, it is.

May I ask who you are?”

“I’m Jayleen Archer, the agent director at Vitality Entertainment.

I’ve heard about your interest in joining us.

We’re also looking forward to collaborating with you.

When would you be free? Let’s arrange a meeting to discuss signing the contract.

”

“Oh…” Selah hesitated for a second before saying, “You know, it might be better if Lindsey discussed this with me.

I don’t want to trouble you, Miss Archer.

”

The corners of Jayleen’s mouth turned down slightly, but she forced a pleasant tone.

“Well, the thing is, our company policy requires artists of your standing to deal directly with the director agent, so…”

“Fine, but I have one condition to sign with your company.

If you agree, then we can set up a meeting.

”

“Of course, tell me what it is.

We’ll do our best to accommodate,”

Jayleen replied, her spirits lifting…

“I want Lindsey as my agent.

That’s my term for signing the contract.

”

Jayleen felt a knot form in her stomach, her forced smile freezing in place.

She hadn’t anticipated Selah demanding Lindsey as her agent!

She had her own plans for Selah once the contract was signed, with no intention of letting Lindsey be involved.

Furthermore, she was determined to remove Lindsey from the company.

How could she let Lindsey to bring in someone as significant as Selah?

“I’m afraid I can’t do that, Miss Potter.

Our company assigns agents after an artist signs on,” Jayleen explained, trying to maintain composure.

Selah, unfazed, pressed on, “Miss Archer, I’ve never heard of such a strict policy.

My request isn’t unreasonable.

If your company can’t grant this small concession, then perhaps we have nothing further to discuss.

”

Having been out of the limelight for five years, Selah was still sharp, easily seeing through Jayleen’s schemes.

She knew well how agents bent over backwards for the chance to represent a star.

Jayleen frowned, a clear sign she wasn’t pleased.

Facing Selah directly, though, meant trouble she didn’t want, so she forced a smile and said, “Miss Potter, I’m not in the position to decide on this right now.

I’ll run it by the vice general manager and get back to you once we have an answer.

”

“Sure, that’s fine.

”

The moment she hung up, Jayleen slumped back in her chair, her face clouded over with gloom.

Later in the day, Jayleen summoned Lindsey to her office.

“Miss Archer, have you touched base with Selah? Is the contract done?”

Lindsey entered, bubbling with enthusiasm.
