Her manager? (2)

Alice was still contemplating when Amy came back. When she saw her enter the car, she took her place in the driver's seat. While she drove, her mind was in a mess. What's going on?

Seeing that Alice didn't take the usual route to home, Amy asked, "Are we going somewhere else?"

"Yeah! The agency."

Amy nodded with an 'oh'.

Amnesty Entertainment

Alice & Amy entered the agency. On the way, many people greeted her.

"It feels great to have fans, right?", Alice turned her head to Amy. But, Amy disappeared into thin air! What the hell?!

Never mind! Amy is an adult. She won't get lost, right? Alice quickly made her way to his office. She pushed the door open & peeked in. Daniel was busy with some papers.

She charged in, "Daniel, what's the point of all these?"

"Hmm?", Daniel smiled, "What's wrong?"

"Were you not my manager?", she put on a sad face.

"Uh huh!", he shook his head.

"Then?", Alice felt wronged.

"Your manager was testing you."

"Testing me?", she raised her head, "So, did I pass the test?"

"Ask her yourself", he pointed his chin towards the door.

Alice turned around to see. She was just speechlessly stunned. An elegant lady in a professional suit was standing with her hands crossed across her chest. A smile warmed her facial features.

She walked up to her with a smile, "You must be quite surprised, right?"

"Amy...", she turned her head towards Daniel, "is my manager?"

He nodded with a smile, "Everything you did these few days was planned by her."

Alice nodded in a serious manner before saying, "You shouldn't be a manager. A chef would be perfect."

Amy froze hearing the word 'chef' but maintained her smile.

"She came from a family of chefs", Daniel explained.

"Really?", she turned to Amy.

Amy just smiled & then spoke, "I've selected an interview for you. You will appear with Catherine Brittany."

"Wow, when is that?"

"Day after tomorrow", Amy explained, "Well, Aunty Shoo wants to discuss the details."

"Sure", Alice followed behind Amy.

The afternoon was spent in discussions about how to talk & how to twist their questions around. After that, Amy dragged her into their room.

"That Zach guy seems to irritate you", Amy exclaimed.

"Yeah, he's been following me around from my school days."

"Hmm", Amy nodded thoughtfully.

"He changed his name when he entered the music industry. So, I never knew it was him."

"I heard that your hacking skills are top-notch."

Alice just smiled.

"Hack into his laptop."

Alice nodded with an evil smirk. At first, she hacked into his Instagram. Then, she crept into his laptop easily.

"Search his files", Amy ordered.

Alice nodded & opened his files. To their surprise, his gallery was filled with her pictures ranging from school days to the reality show.

"Wow!", Alice smiled, "even a fan's gallery won't be that much full."

"Delete them!", Amy added sternly.

"Eh? Such great pictures shouldn't go into waste, right?"

Amy rolled her eyes out with anguish.

"Okay! Just let me copy them on my laptop."

Amy was facepalmed while Alice giggled & copied all her photos on her laptop.

With that, she deleted all the photos, "Done!"

Amy raised her head, "Good."

But to her surprise, she found Alice drooling upon her photos.

Amy shook her head in disappointment.
