If she asked for any form of compensation, he would likely think less of her.

"You're from Starine Entertainment, right? How about this? | will make arrangements so that you'll be given the best resources and the most promising projects. | will make you an A-list celebrity within a year," Brian offered nonchalantly.

This time, Eleanor was unable to hide the sparkle in her eyes.

Still, she maintained her composure. "Thank you, sir.”

"You can go now."

She had remained calm all this time. Brian couldn't help but admire her for that.

"lunderstand.”

Eleanor pressed her lips together to stop herself from grinning ear to ear. She turned around and made for the door.

“Wait!” Brian called out to her, and Eleanor almost stopped breathing.

She slowly turned around and found Brian holding up a beautiful jade pendant. He had found it on the floor earlier, on the other side of the bed.

"Is this yours?"

Eleanor reached out and took the jade pendant from Brian's hand.

"Yes, it's mine.”

It didn't take a genius to know that the pendant belonged to the woman who had actually shared Brian's bed. And Eleanor was no idiot.

Who could it possibly be?

A vague feeling told her that the pendant looked somewhat familiar.

At the very least, she knew that she had seen it somewhere before.

“Is there anything else you need? If not, then you may go." Brian's voice interrupted her thoughts.

Eleanor hurriedly stashed the jade pendant into her pocket. She gave Brian one last look before exiting the room.

As soon as she left, Brian's assistant, Edwin, came in.

“Are you all right?”

Brian leaned back against the sofa and kneaded his throbbing temples.

“Have you found the one who tampered with my wine last night?"

"Yes, sir. The culprit is Eduardo Foster. He put some aphrodisiac in your drink in some foolish and misguided attempt to curry your favor.”

Edwin glanced at the haggard state of Brian.
