Chapter 846
Vera stiffened. Her face fell. She couldn’t come up with a response to his interrogation. After opening her mouth, she closed it again.
Then, she shot back, “Isn’t that the truth? saw it with my own eyes. If she wasn’t a prostitute, why would she have such uncertain relationships with multiple men?”
Denton roared furiously, “Of course not! She works in Mr. Gardner Senior’s
team. She’s the one doing the appraisal of negative items, not him! Those men behaved in that way because they needed her help. You didn’t even get the most basic information about Skylar right! You declared she was a prostitute just like that. You’re making enemies for us!”

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
