Hmm… I don’t remember knowing any woman who can afford bodyguards like these… With that in mind, Skylar refused his request, “I don’t know your boss. I’ll go see her only if I feel like it.”
The bodyguard then made a phone call before turning towards her again. “She’s waiting for you in the parking lot.”
The next thing Skylar knew, she was being forcefully taken away. Her assistant was told to stay behind.
Upon arriving at the parking lot, Skylar saw Ingrid step out of a white Lincoln limousine, dressed in a white wool sweater and a black dress underneath.
The woman had very exquisite makeup on, but her short and chubby figure ruined the look.
She actually came all this way just to catch me right after I get off the plane? Talk about dedication…
Skylar thought to herself as she asked, “What’s the meaning of this? Didn’t we already sort things out between us back at the café? I don’t care what your relationship with Harry is, okay? It has nothing to do with me!”
“You called me an obsessive fan during the interview!” Ingrid snapped back at her.
Skylar lowered her gaze in an attempt to hide her nervousness. “That was just a joke! Don’t take it so seriously! Besides, you never actually told me about your relationship with Harry, so I had to make a wild guess!”
This is bad… Even if I somehow manage to run past Ingrid, I’ve still got these big strong bodyguards to worry about, and they’ve been eyeing me like a pack of hungry wolves the whole time… Wait… Since Ingrid is Tobias’ half-sister, I can call him for help!
Skylar hurriedly pulled out her phone and gave Tobias a call.
Ingrid taunted her when she saw her calling for help. “Are you trying to call the police? You really think they’ll help a sl*t like you?”
“I’m in a meeting right now…” Tobias’ familiar voice came on the phone when the call got through, and he sounded rather annoyed at being interrupted.
