Chapter 470
On the instant, Skr’s face was flushed red in utter embarrassment. It was as if Valerie’s oppressive
words had turned into countless needles, poking her back constantly.
Skr refuted doubtfully, “I thought I’ve gained a certain level of poprity. After all, the grading system
is still set by the management. By right, I shouldn’t be given such a low rating.”
Valerie reprimanded her coldly, “You’re overconfident. Since you’ve signed up as our artist, you must
follow the arrangements made by thepany strictly.”
When Skr received her script for the guest appearance, she was overwhelmed to find out that it was a
rape scene. To make things worse, there was only one short line for the scene!
As a wave of fury surged from within Skr, she tossed the script to Kate and grumbled, “What does
Valerie mean? It’s really obvious that she is setting me up intentionally. I bet everyone in thepany
knows that she looks down on me. What have I done wrong?”
Kate opened the script and was stunned to see the exceptionally short line. She frowned again when
Skr emphasized to her that it was a rape scene.

Pinching the bridge of her nose, Kate exined patiently, “Skr, I’m just your manager. I don’t have the
authority to go against the arrangement made by thepany. Even if Valerie is setting you up
deliberately at the moment, you have no right to reject as well. You should have gone with them silently
when they assigned you to host for the kids’ reality show previously and wait patiently for Empyrean
Sword to be aired. By then, Valerie won’t be able to do anything because of your contribution to the
company. Yet, you have wasted a golden opportunity!”
Skr leaned her head against the sofa with her eyes tightly shut. Her fingers knocked lightly on the sofa
as her mind drifted into contemtion. Valerie hasmbasted me in front of everyone intentionally today.
If I refuse to ept thepany’s arrangement again, I would surely be criticized by the others. Anyway,
they should at least brief me more on the rape scene so I can be prepared emotionally.
It struck Skr why Cassidy was sort of having a mental disorder. A rape scene was repulsive enough
for her, yet Cassidy had to sell her body in order to secure her status and squeeze any chance to act in
the movie.
Largo never gave up asking whether she has thought it through on his business proposal. Ever since he
knew that she was cklisted by thepany, he tried to talk her into giving in to his proposal.
No doubt she could tell Tobias about what was bothering her and get his help, yet this would surely
cause the others to look down on her. She really disliked how others criticized her for relying on Tobias to
cover her back.
She gazed at Kate and asked in bewilderment, “What do you think? Should I go with the arrangement
this round? I suppose the reputable director won’t go beyond the limit for the rape scene, right?”
Kate added, “If you refuse to follow their instruction again, I’m sure Valerie won’t let you off easily. She is
an assertive and domineering woman. Both Susan and her used to be Mr. Ford’s trusted aides. They are
undoubtedly no ordinary people who are easy to deal with. Thus, you will only put yourself in hot soup by
challenging them and going against their wishes!”
Skr smile bitterly as she replied in sarcasm, “Does it mean that I’m not an ordinary person as well?
Perhaps I’m stillparable to the two of them? At least I have been by Tobias’ side for quite a long
time.”
Kate twitched her lips and teased her, “Needless to say, you are iparable to them. Both of them
have gone through a lot more than you. Youngdy, you still need more exposure to polish yourself in all
aspects.”
Eventually, Skr made up her mind to attend the shooting session for the guest appearance. Fine,
Skr Jones, just go ahead! No pain no gain! It’s a really short guest appearance, not that I have to strip
every single piece of my clothes for the whole movie.
Once Amelia knew about Skr’s guest appearance, she jeered at Kate, “I guess she must have gotten
used to it. I’m shocked that she dares to go for the guest appearance! If any renowned director looks for
her to strip off all her clothes and act in an obscene movie, I bet she will go for it without a second
thought!”
Kate nced obliquely at Amelia and taunted, “Talking about stripping off the clothes, I personally feel
that you’re just the same. Have you forgotten about those seductive photos you took for the men’s
magazine? It seems that you are stripping off more and more clothes.
