Chapter 795 Impressing Susan


    Skr quickly took a car to the hotel. On the way there, Penelope apologized profusely for her


    mistake.


    Her remorse was palpable. Skr carefully put on a nonchnt air and did not utter a single word


    ofint about Penelope.


    Till then, she still remembered Penelope''s steadfast support during her darkest times.


    She even tried to clear Penelope''s me by exining, “Ordering a ne ticket is useless. I still


    have my identity card with me. No one can board that ne under my name.”


    Only then did Penelope''s lips curve into a small smile of relief. I don''t know what I would do if Skr


    said something nasty to me.


    While counting her blessings about Skr''s kindness, Penelope chided herself on her


    ipetence.


    Just look at Tobias'' assistant. I''m nothingpared to her.


    She believed she was only able to snag a job as Skr''s assistant because of their friendship.


    Penelope was a single mother with barely any academic qualifications, which would have


    disadvantaged her in the job market.


    When they arrived at the hotel, Skr quickly located her identity card and a phone charger, which


    had been packed together.


    The color of the well-used cable had darkened over time, and Skr mistakenly believed Tobias


    had wiped the cable for her.


    She packed everything in her purse. Before she left, she suddenly heard the click-cking of heels


    across the room''s marble floor.


    Skr turned around, surprised to see Susan alone without Tobias.


    Unlike her, Susan always seemed to exude an alluring aura.


    Susan dered, “I need to speak with Skr.”


    Penelope did not understand the subtle hint to leave the room, prompting Skr to send her


    downstairs to buy a drink from Starbucks.


    A momentter, only Skr and Susan were left in the room.


    Susan''s gaze was brimming with admiration as she stared at Skr. Skr''s such a lucky woman.


    Not because of her business but because Tobias still loves her deeply after they''ve been together


    for such a long time.


    She believed everyone had an attractive trait that kept their partner engaged, yet Susan could not


    tell how Skr had ensnared Tobias'' heart, even when others had disapproved of their rtionship.


    Susan snapped out of her thoughts and jumped straight to the topic. “Here''s the thing, Ms. Jones.


    Mr. Ford told me that he''d like me to be your assistant. I''ve always followed his instructions


    while working for him all these years.”

    Skr was bewildered. She did not expect Tobias to actually voice his request to Susan. He really


    isn''t too considerate of other people''s feelings.


    She smiled and rejected Susan''s offer, saying, “Don''t worry. Regardless of Tobias'' ns, I will not


    make you work as my assistant. I know very well that I''ll only be wasting your talents if you work for


    me.”


    Susan''s opinion of Skr rose considerably. She''s such a sensible young woman, much better than


    Tobias'' ex-fiancée.


    Penelope returned to the room a whileter with a drink for Susan as well, though thetter had


    already left.


    She handed atte to Skr and said, “We should get going, or we''ll bete. We have to arrive by


    today because you have a rehearsal tomorrow morning. Will Tobias be heading back with you?”


    Skr shrugged and uttered, “Of course not. He has his own business to handle. Everyone on


    Twitter still thinks Saorise should be the brand ambassador of Royale Entertainment City. If I rx


    now, I''ll never make a name for myself in the industry as long as Saorise is around.”


    Penelope merely thought Skr was being too silly. If I were Skr, I would put all my eggs in one


    basket to be pregnant with Tobias'' child. Even if the rtionship turns sour, I''ll still have a


    comfortable life because of the kid. She wouldn''t need to work herself to the bone like now.
