Skylar shot a few curious glances towards them. Without her noticing, Kate sneaked up behind her.
She followed Skylar’s gaze and said simply, “That girl is Sheldon’s girlfriend. The two of them have been getting along very well recently, and he keeps dropping by to visit her. That’s why the other trainees suck up to her so much.”
Skylar understood the hidden meaning behind her words. No wonder these girls were hanging around her!
Frankly, Skylar thought the girl looked like an average online influencer.
How did she steal the heart of a notorious playboy like Sheldon? She probably has some sort of hidden talent.
Sheldon probably liked her the same way Tobias liked Skylar for her unquestioning obedience. However, it wasn’t something Skylar particularly enjoyed doing—rather, she couldn’t hold herself back from doing so. After all, she owed Tobias too much.
The filming crew dropped by to sign the final contract with her. Skylar was a little disappointed to see that her pay was slightly below one million.
Kate was exasperated. “I can’t believe you’re hesitating! This figure is practically unheard of for newcomers in the industry. Besides, this is your first drama. You have to climb the ladder slowly.”
However, with this measly salary, Skylar wondered how long it would take for her to gather enough cash to smother Tobias.
Even his watch cost more than her entire salary for this drama. They were truly worlds apart.
She picked up the pen miserably and signed her name on the dotted line.
This contract also required the signature of the CEO. Thinking that it was Tobias, Skylar flipped quickly to the last page. However, the signature there belonged to Valerie instead! Skylar slumped back against her seat.
Kate knew exactly how she was feeling. “Mr. Ford has transferred his decision-making power to her. He’s way too busy to bother with Royal Entertainment now.”
Skylar had met Valerie once. She was awe-inspiring, not unlike the suave, self-assured Kate herself.
Tobias seemed to like surrounding himself with powerful, talented women.
