Chapter 454


    “I’ve already told Valerie. Thepany is fixed on this. It’s not like you can just disregard their decision.”


    Skr finally snapped. “Is Valerie behind this, or Winnie?”


    Kate tapped her cigarette against the ashtray and sat up. “I think it’s Winnie. She’s really close to Valerie


    lately. Didn’t you see the photos they posted on Instagram? They have been hanging out a lot.”


    Since Kate had already epted things as they were, Skr decided to just fight for herself. Hosting


    kids’ shows was no easy task. This was not something thepany should entrust to a rookie, but


    somehow, it justnded on her.


    “What do you think you’re doing? There’s no use making a huge fuss out of it. You should just talk to


    Tobias instead. He’ll be able to help you.” Kate stopped her before Skr did anything rash, but thetter


    insisted.


    When Skr barged into Valerie’s office, Winnie was also inside. Both of them were discussing which


    gown Winnie should wear for the g that evening.


    Skr was also attending the event, but her outfit was switched at thest minute. She would be wearing


    a piece sponsored by Zara.


    As for Winnie’s outfit, it went without saying that the price was exuberant.


    Skr invited herself in and sat down on the couch before Valerie could say a word.


    “I’m not hosting the kids’ show. I just finished filming Empyrean Sword, so by right, I should take time


    away from the screen. I don’t see why I should be on set with a group of kids every day.”


    Over on the other side of the room, Winnie crossed her leg and looked at Skr smugly. “A kids’ show?


    I’m so sorry to hear that. Are you gonna wear a mascot costume then? It must be hot though.”


    “You still don’t have what it takes to choose which show you go on. People are choosing you instead and


    thepany has decided on that,” Valeria said sternly.


    Beside her, Winnie shed Skr her sweetest smile and blinked her eyes at her. Skr felt an urge to


    just go up to her and rip her face apart.


    “Thepany has decided on this? It’s more like both of you want to make things difficult for me. There


    are so many other suitable candidates in thepany, so why does it have to be me?”

    “Who knows? The kids might like you more,” Winnie interrupted.


    Skr shot her a death re and studied her face. “I bet they like you more. With your big t face and


    toad eyes, you look just like a cartoon character yourself.”


    Winnie pped the table and got on her feet. She took Skr’s insult to heart because she really was


    not as attractive as she was.


    Skr had a face that any girl would covet.


    “You’d better watch your mouth and be grateful you’re getting a job. This is not some market where you


    bargain for a good deal.”


    Sensing an imminent fight, Valerie intervened. “You can choose not to go for the show, but that will mean


    you’ll have no assignments until Empyrean Sword is aired. You have no one else to me since you’re


    the one who turned this opportunity down.”


    Skr looked at the two of them with burning anger in her eyes. She wondered since when did the two


    women got so close. It was apparent that Valerie was being nice to her because of Sheldon.


    “So you’re saying I won’t be given a new task other than this one? I won’t host the kids’ show anyway. It’s


    only going to affect the rating for Empyrean Sword.”


    Skr made her stance clear and left.


    Valeria heaved a sigh of relief, but a frown quickly settled on her face again. “Do you think Mr. Ford will


    me me for this?”


    “Come on, my boyfriend is in charge of Ford group and the whole family now. Skr is just a nobody.


    Besides, Tobias has always been nice to you. I’m sure you’re more important to him than Skr. She’s


    only been with him for such a short timepared to you.”
