Manager ire furrowed when J didn''t listen to her to stop Elder Collins. As a mother of two teenagers, J''s behavior toward her first child; Alvin always disgusts ire. She kind of understands what Elder Collins or the Collins family was going through.


    Twenty-seven years ago, she was an assistant when J entered the entertainment industry. She had agreed that J having a baby at the beginning of her entertainment career will destroy her chances to grow.


    However, none ever told J to send Alvin to the Matthews family orpletely disregard her child. Since it was J''s choice they had never butted in and focused on J''s career.


    Since J lost her mind after a simple call by Casper and took it further to Alvin, ire doubted if J ever considered herself as a mother of Alvin, much less as a grandmother of a little boy.


    ire was famed for sessfully handling J all these years. She was well respected and titled as the number one artist manager because of J. So she wasn''t ready to give up on J easily when they had worked so hard and long.


    Brushing off her thoughts that were against her artist, she paced in the room trying to think of a way to smoothly sail in the storm that was heading their way.


    When the twodies in the room were dead silent, the faint voices from the news channel continued. ire nced at J whose trembling finger continued to glide on the mobile screen.


    Everyone was seeing Gianna as a viin for being a terrible stepmother to Alvin because they saw the biological mother as a helpless woman aka a victim of the Matthews family.


    Ifizens manage to deduce J as the mother of Alvin, some people might foolishly support J, maximum of theizens were smart enough to deduce J abandoned her first child for her career.


    The manager was cent percent sure that Alvin won''t step out to say a single word in favor of J. Neitherpany nor J could lie to hide the truth.


    Hence J will have to go forward to clear it. It wasn''t a favorable situation as J was being forced to ept it openly. It would harm J''s image and it was crucial to managing J''s image.


    What if Alvin or Casper ns to reveal it in the most destructive way for J?


    The thought of it made the manager''s spine chill. If the news of J leaks in the most horrific way then it would be impossible to redeem J''s image even with the support of Alvin and the Collins family.


    The best way ire found was J directly revealing her rtionship with Alvin to the media before anybody could deduce the truth.


    ire was aware there would be hundreds of questions thrown at J, many specting due to her young age. Everyone would curse J for being an insensitive mother. Her image of a kind and generousdy would affect her to a great extent.


    So the solution to that was victimizing J and presenting the Matthews family as the viin. They will have to show as Casper took advantage of J and made her sign the agreement to never meet her son.


    However, all these ns will have a positive effect if the Collins family and Alvin stand by J as her support. If not attending the press conference, Alvin will have to publish a line or two in J''s favor or against the Matthews family.


    Unfortunately, J ruined her only chance of survival by disrespecting and sending Elder Collins out of there. She had a terrible rtionship with Alvin and Bernard had refused tly to help J.


    Thus ire gave another try if J could be convinced. "J..." She went close to J who turned to her in a jerk. ire made J sit on the edge of the bed and calmly spoke.


    "J, there is no use in crying over spilled milk." They have to find a solution instead of fighting or talking about the past. "We have to act quickly before Alvin Matthews or the Matthews family take action."<novelnext></novelnext>


    J had two movies lined up for next year and those two projects were very important for her to keep her celebrity status. Any mishap could make her lose everything in the industry. So she was eager to solve the situation. Hence she obediently heard her manager hoping she would have a solution.


    ire was cent percent sure J wouldn''t listen to her. Yet she gave it a try. "We should step forward and reveal about you and Alvin Matthews."


    "Never." J hissed, widening her eyes in horror.


    ire slowly breathed to stay calm as she had expected it. She held J''s arms and tried to persuade softly as if coaxing a reeling child, "J, listen to me. You are well-settled in the entertainment industry. You are the superstar. If you go forward and speak with your fans, there are high chances they will understand you."


    J started shaking her head in refusal but the manager continued, "If needed, we will lie as you were afraid of the Matthews family. We will also reveal that Gianna Matthews had attempted to stop your movies."


    J started yammering, "No, no... no...." She was well aware lying wasn''t a choice. If a lie was caught, she would be forever known as a liar.


    Ignoring her denial, the Manager continued to assure her, "I will connect with thepany and PR team to discuss this. I will request the CEO to meet Alvin Matthews." Because she had no guts to face Alvin.


    The manager was sure thepany would serve J as thepany foundation was stronger because J was a phenomenal celebrity in her prime age. However, she had a misconception that Alvin would listen to others.


    ire paused hearing Jugh eerily hearing the CEO of her entertainmentpany would meet Alvin. Herughter turned gloomier by the end when she responded, "He won''t listen to anybody."


    Alvin at least heard Elder Collins, respected Bernard, and allowed Linus to be close to him. Since Bernard refused to help, Elder Collins loathed her, she was sure nobody could convince Alvin.


    ire opened and closed her mouth. If what J said was the truth, then thepany might have to sacrifice J, after all thepany just cares about profit and advantages.


    J''s eyes suddenly brightened as her back straightened. She clutched ire''s hand and stressed her words in certainty, "Anya Owen!!" She gave a firm nod to herself and added, "Only she can convince Alvin."


    No, J didn''t agree to reveal her and Alvin''s rtionship with Alvin''s support. She wanted Alvin to keep an end to the heated online discussions. For example, Alvin''s biological mother is dead. Then stop the Matthews family from speaking anything about her.


    ire''s face turned nk upon hearing Anya''s name. On the way to the penthouse, she read the articles and watched the news where the cops who worked with Anya were speaking about Anya, the recipient of the president''s award.


    As per her judgment from all their words, Anya wasn''t getting close to anybody but she was a meticulous officer whose investigation and working style was swift and ruthless.


    ire doubted if Anya would be any better than Alvin. Nevertheless, she tried to calm J with a misunderstanding that J was prepared to reveal the truth if Anya convinces Alvin. "Alright, I will check my sources and get in touch with her. I will speak with her."


    ire decided to meet Anya and y the emotional card as women and their struggles in their careers. But they are running out of time so they have to act quickly.


    She grabbed her bag and confidently said, "I got this." She assumed she can handle Anya.
