Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 470

On the instant, Skylar’s face was flushed red in utter embarrassment. It was as if Valerie’s oppressive words had turned into countless needles, poking her back constantly.

Skylar refuted doubtfully, “I thought I’ve gained a certain level of popularity. After all, the grading system is still set by the management. By right, I shouldn’t be given such a low rating.”

Valerie reprimanded her coldly, “You’re overconfident. Since you’ve signed up as our artist, you must follow the arrangements made by the company strictly.”

When Skylar received her script for the guest appearance, she was overwhelmed to find out that it was a rape scene. To make things worse, there was only one short line for the scene!

As a wave of fury surged from within Skylar, she tossed the script to Kate and grumbled, “What does Valerie mean? It’s really obvious that she is setting me up intentionally. I bet everyone in the company knows that she looks down on me. What have I done wrong?”

Kate opened the script and was stunned to see the exceptionally short line. She frowned again when Skylar emphasized to her that it was a rape scene.

Pinching the bridge of her nose, Kate explained patiently, “Skylar, I’m just your manager. I don’t have the authority to go against the arrangement made by the company. Even if Valerie is setting you up deliberately at the moment, you have no right to reject as well. You should have gone with them silently when they assigned you to host for the kids’ reality show previously and wait patiently for Empyrean Sword to be aired. By then, Valerie won’t be able to do anything because of your contribution to the company. Yet, you have wasted a golden opportunity!”

Skylar leaned her head against the sofa with her eyes tightly shut. Her fingers knocked lightly on the sofa as her mind drifted into contemplation. Valerie has lambasted me in front of everyone intentionally today. If I refuse to accept the company’s arrangement again, I would surely be criticized by the others. Anyway, they should at least brief me more on the rape scene so I can be prepared emotionally.

It struck Skylar why Cassidy was sort of having a mental disorder. A rape scene was repulsive enough for her, yet Cassidy had to sell her body in order to secure her status and squeeze any chance to act in the movie.
