A bulky, bald man had broken past the security line and picked her up as easily as he would pick up a baby chick. He
pressed his puckered lips onto Skylar’s face.
In the midst of all this chaos, Avery nearly doubled over with laughter. “See? I told you there’d be a good show
today! Tobias must be fuming over his girlfriend getting forcibly kissed by someone like that in front of so many
people!”
“You’re such a tease, Avery.” Idania hid her chuckle behind a hand. “You can’t do this next time.”
“Look at her face! It’s all contorted with disgust! She looks horrendous,” howled Avery, wiping her tears away with
one hand.
Elsewhere, Tobias was watching everything happen with a dark expression on his face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChills ran down Susan’s spine when she felt a murderous aura emanate off of him.
All she could do was pray for Skylar’s wellbeing. The woman was a victim in this situation, but there was no way
Tobias was going to let her off the hook so easily.
Skylar, still in shock, watched as the overweight man was dragged off the stage by several bodyguards. Taking
several deep breaths to calm herself down, she took a tissue and wiped her face, but her smile from before was no
longer present.
She took a sip of her water and swallowed her disgust back down. God, I want to go home and take a shower. I
want to forget that all of this ever happened.
However, she put on a bright smile and saw the event through until the very end.
Afterward, she was escorted back into her car with the help of several additional security guards. She couldn’t find
the strength in her to muster even a glance at any of her fans, no matter how hard they were trying to get her
attention.
Once the car doors were closed, the first thing Skylar did was pull out a pack of wet tissues and rub her face
fiercely.
She vaguely registered Kate going on and on angrily about how the security guards at the mall were all useless.
She rambled about the consequences that could have occurred if the man had been holding a knife, and so on and
so on.
“These are some things you’ll have to get used to as a celebrity,” she comforted Skylar. “Don’t dwell on it too much
or develop any sort of trauma because of this, okay?”
It was too late for that; the memory of that man rushing towards her flashed in Skylar’s mind whenever she closed
her eyes. “That was sickening. How could so many security guards fail to stop just one person? I swear I’m never
coming back here. God, I think his body odor transferred onto me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKate furrowed her eyebrows. “Do you know whose mall this is?”
“Who cares? I don’t want to come back here.”
“It’s a mall registered under the Ford Group. Tobias is the big boss of this place. Don’t be too stubborn, alright?
Besides, photos of the incident are already on the internet, and that guy should have already been arrested.”
Skylar did a double-take. It was just her luck that Tobias was somehow involved in this mess as well.
“The Ford Group has nothing to do with me. It will never have anything to do with me,” she huffed. “I’m going to go
home and scrub at my skin until I’m completely exfoliated. Maybe I should take a bath as well…”
Kate knew Skylar was a smart girl who usually saw the big picture. That was why she was surprised to learn that the
latter was not considering marrying into the Ford family.
After all, marrying Tobias was the dream of countless female celebrities.
