Chapter 410 A Liar



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

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

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

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

Claire was famed for successfully handling Janet all these years. She was well respected and titled as the number one artist manager because of Janet. So she wasn\'t ready to give up on Janet 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 two ladies in the room were dead silent, the faint voices from the news channel continued. Claire glanced at Janet whose trembling finger continued to glide on the mobile screen.

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

If netizens manage to deduce Janet as the mother of Alvin, some people might foolishly support Janet, maximum of the netizens were smart enough to deduce Janet 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 Janet. Neither company nor Janet could lie to hide the truth.

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

What if Alvin or Casper plans to reveal it in the most destructive way for Janet?

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

The best way Claire found was Janet directly revealing her relationship with Alvin to the media before anybody could deduce the truth.

Claire was aware there would be hundreds of questions thrown at Janet, many speculating due to her young age. Everyone would curse Janet for being an insensitive mother. Her image of a kind and generous lady would affect her to a great extent.

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

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

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

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

"Janet, 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."

Janet 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.

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

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

Claire slowly breathed to stay calm as she had expected it. She held Janet\'s arms and tried to persuade softly as if coaxing a reeling child, "Janet, 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."

Janet 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."

Janet 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 the company 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 the company would serve Janet as the company foundation was stronger because Janet was a phenomenal celebrity in her prime age. However, she had a misconception that Alvin would listen to others.

Claire paused hearing Janet laugh eerily hearing the CEO of her entertainment company would meet Alvin. Her laughter 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.

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

Janet\'s eyes suddenly brightened as her back straightened. She clutched Claire\'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, Janet didn\'t agree to reveal her and Alvin\'s relationship 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.

Claire\'s face turned blank 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.

Claire doubted if Anya would be any better than Alvin. Nevertheless, she tried to calm Janet with a misunderstanding that Janet 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."

Claire decided to meet Anya and play 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.
