Chapter 541


    Hannah’s jaw nearly dropped. Why did Tobias buy such a cheap gift for Skr? He was loaded; he could


    clearly afford to purchase something much better than a piece of jewelry that must have cost peanuts to


    him.


    Yet, Skr greatly treasured the ne. She’s way too easy to please.


    The driver made a U-turn and headed back for the studio, but none of the staff members managed to


    find the ne.


    The only way Skr couldfort herself was that Tobias hadn’t personally picked out the gift.


    Thus, she could just buy a gift of equal value for Tobias and call it even.


    On the way back, Skr discovered that the video of her getting forcibly kissed from yesterday was still


    trending online.


    I thought thepany already paid people to remove the video from the trending page? Why is it still


    there?


    I’ve been humiliated enough already.


    She chucked her phone back into her bag, closing her eyes as she leaned back against the car seat,


    feeling exasperated.


    “This has to be someone’s doing. Someone working for the social media tforms must have been paid


    off to make the video trend again.”


    Hannah hadn’t considered that possibility at all. “I’m sure it must be the same guy from yesterday. Only


    people who are truly sick in the head would have the audacity to do such a thing.”Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    “That’s what you think,” Skr huffed. “The situation only appears to have calmed down. Keyword,


    ‘appears.’ There has to be someone who’s out to sabotage my career.”


    “You’re being way too pessimistic. People are mostly good — not everyone harbors evil intentions. All


    we’ve been doing is minding our own business, and we haven’t offended anyone or crossed any lines we


    shouldn’t have.”


    At that, Skr rolled her eyes. After so long of being her assistant, Hannah was still way too na?ve and


    innocent.


    In a way, she envied the woman for it. The less you overthink about life, the easier life bes for you.


    After notifying herpany, they helped to remove the video from the trending page once more. Skr


    decided that she would pay a visit to the center where the assant was being locked up and ask him if


    he’d been acting on anyone’s orders.


    Skr saw Miranda and Madelyn chatting as soon as she got home. Unlike her daughter, Miranda was a


    friendly and open person, able to strike up a conversation with just about anybody.


    Upon seeing Skr step through the door, Madelyn got up and headed to the kitchen to make


    preparations for dinner. Miranda then requested for her to cook pumpkin soup in a very specific way that


    she liked.


    It didn’t take long for Madelyn to realize that Skr’s mother was turning out to be quite hard to handle.


    Skr had never once ordered her around like this in all her time of living together. The woman would


    eat anything she cooked.


    What a stark contrast between a mother and daughter.


    “At least let me go upstairs and change my clothes,” Skr grumbled when Miranda gestured for her to


    sit down next to her. “Why are you here?”


    “I’m worried about you,” Miranda replied, clutching onto Skr’s wrist and refusing to let go. “I saw the


    news. Was Tobias upset? I really think you should quit the entertainment industry; no one likes to see


    their daughter making public appearances like that, much less your future mother-inw.”


    It had just been a lighthearted suggestion, but Skr instantlyshed out at her after hearing it. “Are you


    kidding me? I’m not even married yet! Do you know how much your expenses cost me each month? Do


    you think you’ll still be able to use those Lamer skincare products if I ever lose my job?”
