In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO -
Chapter 350
Ugh, Amelia has seriously been picking on me out of jealousy becauseshe thinks I stole her success... Skylar rolled her eyes at her and replied,“You and I are not that far off, you know? And here I thought having theright proportions is all that matters for celebrities.”
Although Amelia had a pretty face, she had a very large frame. It madeher look like a bag of bones whenever she slimmed down.
It got so bad that there were even rumors online about her going as faras getting bone contouring surgeries.
It wasn't until Kate told Amelia to get back to work that she finally leftthe office.
Kate waited for her to leave before turning towards Skylar with a sternlook on her face. “Your ratings are out, and they don't look good at all.Despite having A+ grade resources at your disposal, your performancewas a C grade at best. Had it not been for Tobias, you wouldn't havemade the cut at all. You really have to step up your game, Skylar.”
I didn't know the company had such a grading system... And here Ithought I had actually made a name for myself...
“Does Tobias know?” Skylar felt depressed as she had worked hard forit, but things hadn't turned out as she expected.
Kate let out a sigh. “Of course he does. He's the one who stood up foryou, after all. Since this company belongs to Ford Group, he has the lastsay in everything. Unrequited Love is quite a popular show, but it lackscommercial value. Seeing how you barely have any companiesapproaching you for advertisements or endorsements, your currentobjective should be getting your name out there. Do you understandwhat I mean?”
The look in Skylar's eyes turned gloomy as she realized she had causedTobias losses.
After that chat with Kate, she met up with Harry at a café in hopes ofmasking the scent of his pungent perfume with the fragrance of thecoffee beans being brewed.
Harry sat with his legs folded and a frown on his face as he sipped on acup of black coffee.
Damn it, I just cant get used to this bitter taste... I would've ordered acappuccino if it weren't for the stereotypical image of badass mendrinking black coffee!
“There's something I need your help with, Skylar.”
“What is it? I have no money if that's what you need.” Skylar askedtiredly while stirring her coffee with a gold-colored teaspoon.
Harry let out a chuckle at how straightforward she was.
He then leaned in closer and whispered, “Rumors about us arespreading like wildfire now, and my girlfriend is going nuts thinkingthat you and I have something going. I need you to explain the truth toher.”
Skylar raised an eyebrow at him in surprise. Wow, I didn't know Harrycared so much about his girlfriend's feelings! She got all worked upabout the rumors between us, while Tobias brushed it all aside coldlyand told me to keep my distance...
With that in mind, Skylar quickly agreed to his request. “Sure, how doyou want me to explain it? Do you have a script or something for me toread off?"
Harry handed her a piece of paper with his messy handwriting all overit.
At that moment, the door to the café opened.
Skylar was so focused on going through the script that she didn'trealize what was going on until someone splashed a cup of coffee onher face.
Thinking it was Harry, she was about to yell at him when she saw thelook of panic on his face and noticed an angry young woman standingnext to their table.
