Ariana gazed into Tyler’s eyes with a fierce determination. “Don’t be afraid. Trust me and sign your name. | am your agent, and | know what's best for you.”

Ariana’s face twisted in frustration. “But you told me yesterday that | could handle it on my own.”
Donna’s smile faltered, replaced by an irritated frown. “Yes, | gave you some freedom to make your own decisions, but that doesn’t mean you should act recklessly.”
Donna didn’t care what she said yesterday. She had worked in this company for so many years. She was confident that she could solve this problem.
