Chapter 368 

1/2 

Willow had been following the news surrounding Skyler’s recent video scandal. While waiting for her breakfast order, she scrolled through the latest entertainment updates. 

The scandal had been left stewing for a night, and the backlash Skyler received had only worsened. 

The waiter set Willow’s food down. Willow was just about to put her phone aside and indulge in breakfast when she accidentally clicked on a video. 

It was a live broadcast of the press conference Skyler had scheduled this morning. 

Willow was admittedly impressed with Skyler’s resilience. 

For someone who had a melodramatic breakdown and attempted to take her own life by consuming sleeping pills the night before, Skyler looked surprisingly well–rested, to her makeup artist’s credit. 

Skyler donned a white dress for the press conference this morning. She had always been good at playing up her innocence, and her ivory visage made her look pure and untainted. 

The video scandal had become groundbreaking news overnight, and the city’s press were vying to get the most exclusive scoop of the day. 

The moment Skyler showed up before the cameras, the reporters swarmed around her and pelted her with questions. 

“Ms. Dawson, by holding a press conference today, are you admitting that you are the woman in that video?” 

“Ms. Dawson, what does Mr. Carter make of the scandal? Have you two broken up?” 

“Ms. Dawson, do you have any plans on going out officially with Mr. Mayer?” 

“Ms. Dawson, looking back on the time you were beloved by all and regaled as the industry’s purest woman, do you find this situation ironic?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Skyler did not falter at the reporters‘ endless stream of questions. She looked wounded, her flawlessly made–up face conveying her heartache as if the world had forsaken her. 

Skyler leaned forward slightly and said into the microphone, “I will never break up with Zayn, nor will I ever go out with Mr. Mayer, because I am not the woman in that video! 

“While I’ve never claimed myself to be the purest woman in the industry, I would never do anything so unconscionable!” 

Upon hearing this, one of the few reporters who were buzzing with questions demanded, Unconscionable? Ms. Dawson, you slept with another man behind Mr. Carter’s back! How is that not unconscionable?” 

“That’s right, Ms. Dawson! You can’t expect us to believe you! Do you have any proof that you aren’t the woman in that video?”

Skyler met the reporters‘ contemptuous gaze as she enunciated, “I do have proof.” 

Without another word, she reached a hand toward Evangeline. 

Evangeline understood the gesture and immediately placed a pair of scissors in Skyler’s hand. 

Turning back to the microphone, Skyler said, “I’ve been in showbiz for long enough to have my fair share 

of backlash, but I have been praised as well. 

“But no matter how others have hurt me, I have never blamed any of you because I know you didn’t do it 

on purpose! 

“What I don’t understand is why I am painted as the villain time and time again even when I’ve done 

nothing wrong!” 

As she said this, she flicked the scissors and cut the bodice of her dress. 

The reporters had no idea what Skyler was doing. Stumped by her actions, they stayed quiet and waited 

to see what she would do next. 

Skyler continued cutting the bodice until her midriff was bared. 

She stood tall and straight like a proud martyr who would stand for no insult. Surveying the crowd of reporters, she said, “I am not the woman in the video, and the proof you seek is this scar that runs along 

the side of my abdomen! 

“The woman in the video did not have a scar like this, but I do because of an old injury!” 

Skyler thought the reporters would be convinced once she showed them the scar, but she was wrong. 

A young female reporter snorted and remarked, “A scar, huh? Stage makeup has been getting more 

advanced these days. 

“A proper makeup artist could paint ten scars, that look like the real thing if they wanted to! Ms. Dawson, if this scar is real, surely you wouldn’t mind getting a doctor to verify it and support your claim.”
