Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 782 Caught A Rich Heiress

“I heard that Valerie had recommended Saorise for Royale Entertainment City's endorsement, and Tobias had actually agreed on it. Can't you just put in a bit more effort? How come Saorise is snatching everything away from you?” Kate became enraged after mentioning it.

She was pretty embarrassed to show her face in front of Milania. It was the same thing for Amelia and Skylar, and now Kate was perplexed why Skylar behaved so oddly. Not only did the company's arrangement seem like utter b*llshit to her, but it had been a while since Kate saw Skylar as well.

Saorise had been receiving all of the profitable resources since she joined the company. Meanwhile, Skylar's meek and easygoing demeanor made her reluctant to ask Tobias for anything. She could only stand and watch while someone else took her place instead.

With one hand in her pocket, Skylar stood beside the window and said, “What else can I do? Butter Tobias up to get some endorsement deals from him? Nothing good ever comes from forcing someone to do something that they don't want to. Moreover, Saorise is indeed more popular than I am, and she's practically a lucky charm in the entertainment industry. Any actor who's ever worked with her made it big after that. What about me, then? I'm practically known as a box-office flop, and now, no director is willing to cast me, claiming that I'm not suitable to be a lead actress and that I should only act in romantic TV dramas.

How could Kate fail to understand that Skylar was still dissatisfied with letting her take the role in The Ballad of 1978? Back then, Kate took the risk, hoping that the film would become a box office dark horse.

However, her hopes were dashed, dragging Skylar down with her as well. Instead of becoming a box office dark horse, even cartoons outperformed them at the box office.

Consequently, Kate was still at a loss as to how to explain their situation to Tobias. Likewise, Tobias had never sought her, indicating that he didn't take the matter to heart.

It was evident that Skylar's status with Tobias was going from bad to worse.

Kate persuaded her, “Don't be offended about the words I'm about to say to you. It's obvious that you're not as good as Saorise in every way. There is no chance of winning if you compete with her for resources by yourself. You should try to flatter Tobias instead. Don't just become a pushover by refusing to ask for anything.”

Skylar knew Kate too well. The latter had always thought that getting Tobias on their side was her most important career.

Even though she was considering going on a diet for the day, Skylar's appetite increased when she was not in a good mood.

She then told Kate that she was going to the cafeteria for lunch.

As she scrutinized Skylar's figure, Kate reminded her, “You seemed to have gained quite a bit of weight than before. Try not to eat if you can. Even though you look skinny enough, there is a significant difference between you and the other trainees. You need to shed some weight and control your appetite.”

Glancing at the full-length mirror in the office, Skylar felt that she looked slightly chubbier than before.

Losing weight would be shedding an ounce every day, while gaining a pound was effortless and simple. Truth be told, losing a pound was far more difficult than anything else.

Meanwhile, Penelope had been waiting outside the office the whole time. On the other hand, Hannah had stopped thinking about work since she returned to the workplace after canceling her vacation.

As the wedding had not been discussed properly, Hannah's family began to disagree with her dating her boyfriend. In fact, she would not have returned to work so early if she hadn't been suffocated by the stressful atmosphere at home, which caused her to nearly lose her mind.

Even though Skylar didn't know much about the cafeteria at Royal Entertainment, she was aware that the food served there was significantly more luxurious than the one at the Peninsular Hotel.

Penelope followed behind Skylar. Even though it was still lunchtime at the cafeteria, the people dining in the cafeteria were used to seeing celebrities.

Some of them might think Skylar wasn't such a big deal at all.

Penelope then went to the counter to order some food. She thought it was fascinating that staff at most of the cafeterias would accidentally spill part of the dishes they scooped onto the meal tray.

As Penelope took her food tray over to sit across from Skylar, there were several young girls sitting next to them. Skylar recognized that one of them was Jeremy's current girlfriend, Grace.

The moment both of them exchanged glances, Skylar felt a strong malevolent aura coming from the other person's gaze. She then whispered to Penelope, “That girl who has been staring at me is Jeremy's girlfriend. I heard she's a rich heiress too.”
