Afraid Skylar was there to make fun of her, Winnie tried her best to calm herself down and looked at Skylar in the
eyes.
Grinning, Skylar asked in a courteous manner, “Have I gotten in the way of something?”
Winnie scowled and asked, “Don’t you think it’s too late when you have barged into the office without our consent?
Are you going to step out if we say you have?”
“Oh! If I have, I don’t mind waiting until the conversation’s over! I mean, I have plenty of time to kill!”
Skylar behaved as though she was about to leave, but Valerie stopped her because she had summoned Skylar
there. The person in charge from Gucci had made themselves clear they wanted Skylar to endorse their latest
items.
Since Kate wasn’t around, Valerie had to deal with the details of the collaboration. However, Valerie was afraid
Winnie would resort to something silly should she be made aware of the truth.

let alone globally renowned ones.
Winnie had turned down the one and only request to collaborate with her from a relatively unknown automotive
brand because she thought she would be chosen to endorse high-end brands.
When Winnie heard Valerie’s instructions, asking her to leave them alone, she gaped at Valerie and thought Skylar
was supposed to be the one leaving. Has Valerie changed over the night? She’s such a materialistic woman! It’s
such a cruel world we’re living in!
On her way out of Valerie’s office, Winnie banged the door shut to take her emotions out.
As soon as Winnie departed, Skylar removed the shades, exposing the dark circles around her eyes. She had a
relatively pale and haggard look.
She had been attending countless interviews and taking part in various reality shows since Empyrean Sword was
aired. In other words, she had no time to rest because of her hectic schedule.
Valerie handed over a brief introduction of the brand to Skylar. After briefly flipping through the document, she
found it unnecessary because she was familiar with the brand.
She once owned a pair of Gucci sneakers. However, she wasn’t familiar with the brand back then. To be precise,
she had limited exposure to different apparel brands because of her financial capabilities.
When Eva, who had always been calm and collected, saw Skylar and her pair of shoes, she burst into laughter to
the extent of shedding tears.
“Are you trying to doll yourself up with that pair of counterfeit on your feet? You might get to deceive others but not
me because I’m aware you can’t even afford a shoelace from that brand!”
When Skylar conducted her due diligence, she found out Eva was right – she couldn’t even afford a shoelace from
Gucci.
Skylar was turned down by another globally renowned brand when she was relatively unknown. In the end, she had
no choice but to endorse a second-rate brand.

On the other hand, Valerie deadpanned her warning. “You’re considered one of the most sought-after celebrities as
of now. If you wish to stay in the industry in the long run, please keep yourself grounded and never ever get full of
yourself.”
Skylar replied, “Thanks for the heads-up, Ms. Fey! I won’t let you down!”
“I’m sure you’re conscious of the number of people keeping an eye on you. Hence, please mind yourself and
refrain from doing anything that’s going to ruin your image, including getting yourself involved in a scandal.”
Skylar had heard similar advice from Kate countless times. She wondered if they had overestimated her capabilities
of getting herself involved in a nasty situation or if she had underestimated herself.
The moment she walked out of the office, she saw Winnie waiting for her outside. Burning with rage, Winnie glared
at her in the eyes and stopped Skylar from moving forward.
“Can you please get your fans to mind their manners? They won’t stop picking a fight with my fans! Stop getting full
of yourself just because you’re famous!”
Skylar put on an innocent front and answered, “I’m sorry, but I have no idea of the things you’re talking about
because I no longer follow you on Instagram.”
