Chapter 37
Her words struck a nerve.
Donna explained awkwardly, “No.
It’s not like that.
The company is currently understaffed.
There’s no one free to put you through the agent job.
Since you don’t know the hang of it, you can’t handle any of the artists.
1 only assigned you to the warehouse so you won’t be idle.
Managing talents is not child’s play.
After all, the company bet a lot of money on each of the artists.
”
“What exactly are you driving at?” Ariana glanced at her coldly.
“Ermm…” Donna seemed to be in a dilemma.
She looked at Ariana, then at Horace.
At last, she snapped her fingers.
“Eureka! I have an idea.
”
A sinister feeling tugged at Ariana’s heart.
She felt that this sly woman was up to something again.
With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Donna said softly, “Since you are keen on managing one of the artists, I’ll summon the latest signees and ask if any of them wants you to be their agent.
What do you say?”
Ariana agreed.
“This way please,” Donna uttered, leading her into a practice room.
SJ Entertainment always signed young talents every season.
These talents had to be trained and examined for a long time.
Only a few would be able to make their debut.
The trainees were a lot.
Once they were summoned into the practice room, half of the space was occupied.
Donna didn’t beat about the bush.
“Hello, guys! This is Ariana Edwards, a new agent.
I summoned you all here today because Ariana is looking to manage her first act.
Although she’s inexperienced, she graduated from a famous university.
She’s enthusiastic and energetic.
Anyone who agrees to work with her might have a shot at debuting soon.
But if you can wait for another two days, the other experienced agents will be free to work with some of you.
The ball is in your court.
”
The trainees began to whisper among themselves.

This was the first time they were given the free hand to choose an agent.
The company normally assigned agents to them, not the other way around.
It seemed like a good opportunity, but no one wanted to risk their budding careers by choosing Ariana.
They didn’t have faith in an agent who had never handled a talent before.
All of them wanted the best agent.
They were only one step away from their success, so they didn’t want anything to mar their chances.
With the right agent, an artist’s career could kick off fast and shoot to the peak in no time.
But a bad agent could slow down or even mess up an artist’s journey in any industry.
It was too big of a risk to trust an inexperienced agent for something so important.
Some trainees shook their heads and looked away, declaring their stance.
The room was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
Donna gave Ariana a complacent look.
She had expected this.
Ariana wanted to manage an artist? Not on her watch!
Ariana was sad and amused at the same time.
Honestly speaking, she wasn’t the best choice for these people.
But how was that her fault? It was required that she underwent training immediately after she was employed, so she would get the hang of the job.
Not only did Donna prevent her from getting trained, but she also set her up by allowing the artists to choose whether they wanted her or not.
