Chapter 267


    Skr shot a few curious nces towards them. Without her noticing, Kate sneaked up behind her.


    She followed Skr’s gaze and said simply, “That girl is Sheldon’s girlfriend. The two of them have been


    getting along very well recently, and he keeps dropping by to visit her. That’s why the other trainees suck


    up to her so much.”


    Skr understood the hidden meaning behind her words. No wonder these girls were hanging around


    her!


    Frankly, Skr thought the girl looked like an average online influencer.


    How did she steal the heart of a notorious yboy like Sheldon? She probably has some sort of hidden


    talent.


    Sheldon probably liked her the same way Tobias liked Skr for her unquestioning obedience. However,


    it wasn’t something Skr particrly enjoyed doing—rather, she couldn’t hold herself back from doing


    so. After all, she owed Tobias too much.


    The filming crew dropped by to sign the final contract with her. Skr was a little disappointed to see that


    her pay was slightly below one million.


    Kate was exasperated. “I can’t believe you’re hesitating! This figure is practically unheard of for


    neers in the industry. Besides, this is your first drama. You have to climb thedder slowly.”


    However, with this measly sry, Skr wondered how long it would take for her to gather enough cash


    to smother Tobias.


    Even his watch cost more than her entire sry for this drama. They were truly worlds apart.


    She picked up the pen miserably and signed her name on the dotted line.


    This contract also required the signature of the CEO. Thinking that it was Tobias, Skr flipped quickly to


    thest page. However, the signature there belonged to Valerie instead! Skr slumped back against her


    seat.


    Kate knew exactly how she was feeling. “Mr. Ford has transferred his decision-making power to her. He’s


    way too busy to bother with Royal Entertainment now.”


    Skr had met Valerie once. She was awe-inspiring, not unlike the suave, self-assured Kate herself.


    Tobias seemed to like surrounding himself with powerful, talented women.


    He didn’t return to the t for the next few days. Skr hadn’t seen him ever since he went home for


    dinner with his mother—or rather, she hadn’t seen him since she brought up that ufortable topic in


    the car.


    Did I scare him off? As the endless possibilities swirled around her mind, Skr felt her heart sink


    miserably.


    She had called Tobias twice during the time he refused to return to the t. He answered both times, but


    their calls had neversted for more than thirty seconds. He always said he was busy.


    In the end, Skr gave up on calling him. Anyway, filming for the new drama was going to begin soon,


    and she didn’t want her emotions to affect her work. Besides, there was no use being too enthusiastic


    towards a man.


    However, Tobias wasn’t one to fall for this sort of behavior. If she didn’t bother to contact him, he might


    just continue ignoring her for an indefinite amount of time.


    While the filming crew set up the shooting set, Skr posted a photo of her on set for the first time in her


    life.


    It was the result of a three-hour painful discussion between the makeup artists and stylists.


    Kate had a very clear vision of what Skr’s image should be. She wanted thetter to dazzle everyone


    with her beauty the moment she stepped into the limelight.

    “You’re beautiful, sweetheart!” Kate eximed as she looked at her, loading Skr with effusive praises.


    “Thanks…” Skr forced a smile onto her face. They had put her in a dress that was so red it looked as


    though it was on fire, and she didn’t like it one bit.


    She was the only one who was dressed so formally. Naturally, she stole the attention on set, but the


    gaudiness of her dressing and makeup gave everyone the impression that she was desperate to stand


    out among the crowd.


    She stood quietly next to Harry as they waited for the crew to finish setting up. Next to each other, the


    duo looked like the perfect couple.


    Harry was a very chivalrous guy. When they took a photo together, he let his hand hang limply in the air


    instead of draping it over her shoulder.


    Kate and Harry’s manager, Tyler, stood in a corner. Both of them were busy scrutinizing their own artist


    with their arms folded.


    Tyler observed, “Your girl is pretty good-looking. As long as her acting isn’t too terrible, she’ll gain quite a


    lot of fame immediately. See how well the two of them look together! In fact, thepany has been


    meaning to make a couple out of them.”
