Since things had already concluded, there was nothing more Josiah could say. He was forced to give in
to money. “I’ll negotiate your next job with your manager. I hope you don’t cause trouble for me.”
Skylar looked at him with sparkly eyes as she said countless words of gratitude and expressed her
determination.
The sight made Kate dumbfounded. Moments ago, she had thought that Skylar was not being
enthusiastic enough. However, in a split second, she seemed to have become a different person.
It’s pretty hard to guess this little lady.
Just then, Valerie called on Skylar to head upstairs.
Concerning Valerie, Skylar did know quite a bit about her matters. Apparently, she had been beside
Tobias when he was first starting his own business.

Similarly, he also attached great importance to Valerie. For instance, he had directly made her the
executive president of Royal Entertainment.
As soon as Skylar entered the office, Valerie asked, “Have you been through the discussion with Mr.
Zimmermann?” She then turned off the computer and leaned back on the chair. As usual, her gaze was
aggressive.
In Skylar’s eyes, Valerie’s appearance looked mean. They say that one’s appearance determined
about a third of one’s personality. Thus, there was perhaps no artiste in the company who was not
afraid of Valerie. In secret, they were calling her Madam Killer and Devil.
The title of “Madam” blatantly mocked Valerie’s single status, for she was already in her thirties but had
no man. Some said that even male flies did not go near her.
Skylar replied, “It’s basically confirmed. I haven’t received the script yet though.”
Valerie then said, “There’s no hurry. It will take some time for the project to begin, for planning to start,
and for the actors to receive special training. As for you acting as the female protagonist, I’m not
optimistic about it.”
Even though Skylar had to hear such frustrating words, there was still a signature fake smile on her
face. “If my acting is bad, I can practice. My acting skills have to be good enough for me to pass.”
Valerie sneered. She had on a sarcastic, contemptuous smile as she said, “I quite hate people who rely
on relations. I came from the countryside and worked hard to get myself to where I am today. But
others can easily get what someone else wants. It’s no different from getting something without doing
anything. This time, Mr. Ford specifically said he wanted you to act in it. According to your market
ratings, many others in the company surpass you. So technically, this role shouldn’t be yours… Do you
understand?”
Upon hearing her words, Skylar felt embarrassed. Her entire body heated up, and it felt like she had
nowhere to hide.
However, she had no way to rebut Valerie. If it were not for Avery, she would never have accepted
something she had not gained by herself either.
Avery had snatched too many things away from her…

If we only blindly follow the market ratings, those at the bottom will never make it in the industry. In the
first place, it is a very unfair model.”
Valerie sneered. “There’s not a lot of fairness in the world. Did you get that role fairly? I hope Mr. Ford
doesn’t hear about whatever I told you today. But even if he knew, it’s no big deal. We’ve gone through
a lot together for so many years. You’ve only been beside him for a short white. I think we have to be
self-conscious.”
Little by little, the sky darkened outside, just as Skylar’s mood did.
Unable to hide her emotions, Skylar’s bad mood and unhappiness were all written on her face.
As soon as Skylar came out from Valerie’s office, Kate had noticed the clues and sensed that
something was wrong with her. She appeared to have taken a blow.
Thus, Kate asked, “What did Valerie say to you? You look so lifeless.”
Skylar replied, “Nothing much. It’s not anything pleasant, but you can’t find any reason to argue back
too. I’ll just listen and forget it.”
Kate smirked. “You can also interpret it as she’s jealous of you.”
