“I know you don’t believe me, but it’s true. She misses you.”
Elyse opened her mouth to speak, but paused, her eyes shifting towards Jayden.
Jayden, who knew little about Elyse’s relationship with Felicia but had done sdigging, had found that Felicia
didn’t really care for Elyse.
Catching her silent appeal, he said, “Let’s not rush into this. Elyse is hesitant. We can talk about this later.”
Elyse took her chance.
“I agree,” she responded with a nod.
“Pearce, please don’t push me. I'm not ready to face her yet.”
Pearce noticed Elyse’s discomfort about Felicia and decided it was best to respect her feelings.
“Drop the subject.” Pearce knew her relationship with Felicia was tense, but he wasn’t about to let that put a
strain on his connection with her.

“I've also received a few work-related inquiries for you. I've hired an agent to handle your upcoming interviews
and promotional activities.”
Elyse’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Are there really that many people looking for me?”
“Quite a few, actually,” Jayden confirmed.
“Ill let you discuss the details with your agent. It’s not really my area.” With that, he handed Elyse the agent's
business card.
Elyse quickly texted the agent and, after exchanging formalities, they delved into discussing various work
opportunities.
Elyse was overwhelmed by the number of offers that had cin. It was clear that her popularity was soaring,
along with her workload.
