Chapter 533


    She tried to give Skr some advice. Besides, the incident was likely only going to make headlines for


    today; it would quickly be forgotten by the public sooner orter. When people searched up pictures of


    the incident, the gorgeous candid pictures her fans took of her would likely also appear in the search


    results.


    All of the security workers stationed at the event that day were called to the Ford Group headquarters.


    With their lowly positions, they would usually never be able to take a single step into this building if it


    weren’t for thepany having specifically requested their presence there.


    All the security guards stood in one line in the conference room,pletely clueless as to why they’d


    been summoned. After a moment, the door to the room suddenly opened.


    All eyes instantly focused on the person standing in the doorway, whom the security detail leader


    immediately recognized as Tobias.


    He stepped forward and bowed clumsily. “Good morning, Mr. Ford!”


    Tobias had a scarily gloomy look on his face as he took a seat at the head of the table while everyone


    else remained standing, waiting with baited breaths for what he had to say.


    “Why was no one able to stop that man from rushing onto stage today?” Tobias spoke up, his tone as


    cold as ice. “Why was this incident allowed to happen?”

    The leader didn’t understand why Tobias would suddenly bring this up.


    Lots of celebrities made appearances at the mall, and simr incidents with other crazy fans were


    common urrences. What was so different this time that they had all been ordered here?


    The leader gave Tobias a brief overview of the situation at the mall, begrudgingly admitting that he had


    made some mistakes that led to the incident.


    Tobias was quiet for a minute before he said, “All of you don’t need toe back to work tomorrow. If


    you can’t handle a sudden emergency like this, you might as well not get the chance to handle it at all.


    The Ford Group doesn’t need useless guards like you lot.”


    He had been suppressing his anger throughout the drive to hispany, repeatedly reminding himself to


    not get angry at Skr. None of this was her fault.


    Upon hearing that they were all getting fired, the group of security guards broke out into a panic,


    hurriedly exining how much they needed the job and how they had to support their families.


    Unfortunately for them, there wasn’t a shred of empathy left in Tobias’ heart; he didn’t want to see them


    for a second longer.


    Back at home, Avery was watching the video of the ident at the mall over and over again,ughing to


    herself. Her mind was filled with various schemes and plots to get back at Skr from her hiding spot


    within the shadows.


    Hayden also took a look at the video, reminding Avery, “You have to be careful not to rock the boat. If


    you slip up and mess things up, that’ll be on you.”


    “Since when did you be such a coward, Hayden?” She nudged him with her elbow. “This is all a


    necessary part of my big n. Dad and Mom wouldn’t have ended up this way if it weren’t for Avery, and


    neither would I have ended up jobless. You’re the man of the family; you should be standing up for us!”


    “I don’t need you to tell me that. You remember Skr’s teen cousin, don’t you?” A smirk appeared on


    Hayden’s face. “He’s in his rebellious phase, and I spotted him skipping school to bet on racecars. Not


    only did he lose all his pocket money, but he even borrowed money from other people to continue


    betting… He ended up losing several thousand in one night.”


    Avery was lost in thought for a moment. She knew Skr’s uncle and aunt were greedy little snakes; if


    anything happened to their darling son, they would most definitely drag Skr into their mess and make


    her pay back the money he’d lost.


    Regardless of however popr Skr had gotten, she was still the Watts’ family’s cash cow. Skr was


    apparently also quite close with Kevin.


    No one would have expected Kevin, with his studious personality and innocent appearance, to be


    addicted to gambling at such a young age.


    If Skr didn’t get involved soon, the media might dig up this story and use her of abandoning her


    family when they were in need, causing irreversible damage to her reputation.


    Avery and Hayden both shared a knowing, meaningful look.
