When the two came over, Skylar plastered on a fake smile and greeted them.

By now, her fans and Winnie’s were in an intense fight online. Skylar’s fans were losing, for there were

not as many of them.

Winnie smiled at Skylar and said, “I haven’t gotten the chance to congratulate you for starring

in Empyrean Sword. Your name is all over the net now. Skylar, you’re going to be popular soon. I’m

sure countless people are envious.”

Her smile was as fake as Skylar’s. A while ago, everyone in the dance room had been complaining

about how a lowly Skylar was getting so many offers.

Skylar’s smile widened. “It’s too early to say that. It seems like I’m fated to have more haters than fans.”

At that, Sheldon said, “Don’t be so humble. Look at the way my brother’s investing in you. It’ll be a

waste of his money if you’re still not popular. Skylar, did you know that you’re still not profiting? If not for

my brother, I’m sure that you’ll be forgotten by the masses by now. In fact, Valerie even said you can’t

even carry a show by yourself and that it’s time for you to stop embarrassing him.”

Skylar lowered her eyes, misery flitting past her mind. Truthful words always hurt.

However, she soon recollected herself. “You can think of me as someone with potential. Maybe there’ll

be a day where I’ll be rich and famous, and that’ll stun everyone. All right, I need to get going. I’ve got

to attend the table-read upstairs since I’m about to join the filming.”

Displeased, Winnie grumbled to Sheldon, “Your brother managed to get such a major role for Tobias,

but I’m still a side character until now. No one’s offering any roles to me. Darling, my career isn’t

progressing. What do we do about the interior of the villa? I don’t even have the money to install an

elevator in the house!”

Sheldon had long transferred the mountain villa that Tobias had given to him to Winnie. He thought that

was enough to express his sincerity in the relationship.

Yet, Winnie was now telling him that she did not have enough money for the renovation. Irked, he

uttered, “Are you asking me to pay for the renovations? My brother is strict on my money, so I can’t

help you much. I’ve given you all I can. You should learn to be grateful for what you have and stop

asking for more.”

My brother, my brother, my brother. Everything he says is about his brother.

He isn’t a mama’s boy; he’s his brother’s boy. Annoyed on behalf of Sheldon, she snapped, “Are you

stupid? You own half of Ford Group. Your brother just wants to take the family assets all for himself.

Tobias’ such a cunning man. It’s embarrassing that you’re not doing anything about it. If I were you, I’d

have wanted to split the assets and get what I deserve. You’re not young anymore. It’s time for you to

plan for your future.”

At a point in time, Skylar’s earphones had dislodged from her ear. While she was returning to look for

her earphones, she overheard Winnie trying to convince Sheldon to go against his brother. You really

can’t talk someone’s back, huh?

When Sheldon noticed Skylar, he panicked and shot a glare at Winnie before hastily saying, “What are

you talking about?”

With his eyes looking at everywhere but Skylar, he mumbled, “Did you… What did you hear what we

said just now?”

In response, Skylar drawled, “Nothing much. Something along the lines of your girlfriend wanting to

split the assets. Yes, that’s all I heard.”

Flying into a panic, Sheldon hurriedly tried to appease Skylar before telling her not to say strange

things. The way he was panicking was as if Skylar was about to report to Tobias about what she

overheard instantly.

At that thought, Skylar felt a tinge of sadness for Tobias. He did everything for his brother, yet his

brother’s girlfriend was still trying to pit Sheldon against him.

Thus, she said, “If you really heed your girlfriend’s words, Tobias will be sad. Think about it.”

That was all she said to Sheldon; she did not promise him that she would not say anything to Tobias.
