“Won’t this hide your true character?” Tobias asked.
She shrugged in reply. “The entertainment industry doesn’t need true personalities. Previously, when I said that Cassidy had a mental problem, it caused such a huge issue for me. Also, what is my true personality?”
Her question stunned him. In his eyes, she was a docile little cat. However, she would occasionally let out her sharp claws and attack others by surprise.
Seeing that he was not answering her, Skylar smiled. “Look at you. You don’t know much about me either. Take this back. I don’t need it anymore.”
As she spoke, she took out the black card from her bag. Usually, she left it there for emergency uses. Yet, since the endorsement fee then was so huge, there was no need for such an emergency fund any longer.
His gaze gradually darkened as he asked, “Are you that anxious to become independent from me?”
In response, she showed him the balance in her bank account. Although that sum of money did not mean much to Tobias, it was an astronomical figure to her.
He was right. One had to find their sense of security. There’s nothing more reliable than holding money in my own hands.
In the end, Tobias took back the black card. Since she no longer needed it, there was no need for him to be difficult about it. As it happened, it was the first time he wanted to give someone money but was unsuccessful.
Skylar then began to explain her grand plan, which included buying some funds. She was familiar with the logic of using money to make more money. After all, other celebrities were so active in developing sideline businesses because they wanted more money.
