Chapter 455


    Valerie felt assured hearing Winnie’s words. She had worked with Tobias at Ford Group since the very


    beginning and they had weathered through storms together. She had an important ce in his heart, so


    there was no way he would do anything to her because of a woman.

    She called her assistant to clear Skr’s schedule, including the g that night.


    Skr was unemployed now that thepany had not arranged any work for her. Despite the


    predicament, Skr was sure that things would change for the better after Empyrean Sword was aired.


    It was not her style toin to Tobias just to get help.


    As Tobias had said—she always faced everything on her own.


    As for Winnie, she only had the audacity to step on Skr’s toes because she had Sheldon at her back.


    Now that even Valerie was on her side, she thought she could do anything she liked.


    Things were really going on phenomenally for her. She was now Gi’s brand ambassador in the Asia-


    Pacific and would even be featured in Paris Fashion Week. She would also be attending the Asia-Pacific


    Film Festival too. With Winnie stealing all the spotlight,izens were beginning to gossip on social


    media.


    Winnie is the next emerging star.


    Winnie is the next hit.


    Skr’s light dimmed under another star.


    Skr knew things were going out of hand when she saw these trending topics on social media.


    Netizens were not letting go of every single chance they had to blow things up. Her name was mentioned


    in almost every article of Winnie.


    From how things were at the moment, it was clear as day that Winnie was on the winning end.


    She was getting all the resources she could from thepany, while they cklisted Skr.


    Since it was Midsummer, Tobias asked Skr to join him for a meal.


    Before Skr could even turn him down, he had already hung up.


    As a caring son, Tobias would always spend all the festive seasons with his mother. It did not matter if


    Skr was his girlfriend.


    Tobias would not stay over at her ce every night. Rather, he spent a great deal of his time with his


    mother and at thepany.


    She understood that it was not easy for a woman to bring up two children on her own. From what she


    knew, udia raised them singlehandedly after she divorced their father.


    Skr could not wrap her head around the reason why she never got married again. It could be that she


    had lost all interest in men, or she did not want the boys to have a stepfather.


    At first, Skr thought only Tobias, udia, and some servants would be at the house, but it turned out


    that Sheldon, Winnie, and some other rtives were there as well.


    Skr did not know who those elderly were, and neither had Tobias told her that there would be so many


    people.


    So I’m seeing his family now? Is he’s making our rtionship official?


    Skr would have been astonished if this had happened when they first got together, but after knowing


    Tobias’ family and having both good and bad encounters with them, she was not perturbed anymore.


    As usual, Tobias’ outfit was as casual and monotonous as it could get. He was dressed in a pair of gray


    cks and a ck shirt.


    As for Winnie, she seemed to be blending in well since she was already talking to family members when


    Skr arrived.


    Unlike thest time, when Tobias saw Skring in, he quickly came over.


    Right after Skr got there, Kai arrived too. Skr had not met him for some time since he had been


    filming in Turlen. When Skr saw him again, he had be more well-built and tanned.


    Kai was equally shocked to see Skr. He totally did not expect Tobias to invite her over to meet his


    family as his girlfriend.


    To him, Tobias was not someone who would take any rtionship seriously. Neither did he think Skr


    had what it took to capture Tobias’ heart.


    “You’re not introducing your girlfriend, Tobias?”
