Ironically, her most recent post was her clarifying that she had noboyfriend.

It was a slap to her face.

Noticing that something was up with Skylar, Tobias took her phone. Thescreen was still on the photo that had been secretly taken.

Skylar's face was visibly gradually becoming pale.

She said, “I'm so dead. Everyone probably knows by now that I'm a liar.Why did this suddenly happen? What should I do now?”

In comparison, he replied calmly, “There's nothing much to it. Let meknow what you think. I'm fine with cooperating with whatever youwant.”

She then clasped her phone tightly, her actions betraying the extremediscomfort she felt in her heart.

“Cooperate with me to acknowledge this relationship? I can’t do thatright now. It'll bring too much trouble. If your identity is exposed, they'llsay that I did dirty things to marry rich... Also, my previous public imagewill collapse. I haven't even stabilized my position in the entertainmentindustry yet.” Since she knew what she wanted then, she was firm whenshe spoke.

Tobias was upset by her blatant despise of him. He had made it clearthat even if she publicly admitted that they were dating, he wouldcooperate with her.

It was the first time he ever took the initiative to do that for a woman.However, she did not even think twice before rejecting him. Am I thatunwelcomed to her?

When met with such matters, Skylar seemed to have lost her resolveShe was not in the company then, so she did not have anyone to helpher monitor the public's opinion.

Thus, she could only scroll through the comments by herself. She knewthat Kate was probably with the public relations team at that moment,working overtime to discuss countermeasures.

They probably had not thought of a good countermeasure yet. If theyhad, Kate would have let her known by then so that she could followinstructions and cooperate.

The user Can't Wake Up commented: It's good as long as you're happy.Blessings.

Another user, Skylar's Sweet Concubine, commented: My hopes arecrushed

After glancing through the comments, Skylar eventually laughed at theone calling Tobias a kept man.

She said, “The cost of spreading rumors nowadays is really low. As longas you say you have a friend or a classmate, you can create your ownstory.”

Tobias sat on the sofa and cupped his chin as he stared at her with adeep look in his eyes. “I agree that it's low, but we also have to seewho's the person they're spreading rumors about. Usually, for smallnews, those will be automatically blocked and won't be exposed. I'vealready gotten the Twitter system to block a few keywords about you.Do you think that this has become such a huge issue only because of afew screenshots?”

If he had not reminded her, Skylar would really not have contemplatedwho was the one behind everything.

She sat down, frowning. “There's no news from my manager. I've beenstuck on Twitter's trending list for quite a while. I'm worried that if thiscontinues dragging on, it'll turn into an even greater problem. They'reall waiting for me to explain now.”

Thinking that she was making a fuss, he asked, “Did they photograph uskissing? Or us hugging? There's none of that, so what's there to beafraid of? You can say that it's a friend. Isn't it pretty normal for a friendto accompany you to the drugstore?”

Skylar was getting increasingly anxious. But that's a pregnancy test kit.He continued helplessly, “Who on earth said you had to be so honest?Besides, it wasn't even photographed, so technically you can just sayanything.”
