NovelEnglishHmm… 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

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.
In order to save her own skin, Skylar couldn’t care less about that and placed him on speaker before
shouting out loud, “Hey, Tobias! I’m with your sister right now, and there seems to be a
misunderstanding between us!”
Ingrid felt her heart skip a beat when she heard that.
Tobias stepped out of the meeting room and asked, “Where are you? I’ll go pick you up…”
The smug look on Ingrid’s face vanished the moment she recognized his voice.
Skylar then told him her location, and he said, “Pass Ingrid the phone. I’ll have a word with her.”
Having ensured her own safety, Skylar mustered up the courage and walked up to the other woman.

times over!”
Ingrid had no choice but to keep her emotions in check and remain silent as she knew she couldn’t
afford to defy Tobias until her father’s return to the country.
She then warned Skylar to stay away from Harry and threatened to disfigure her face if she didn’t
before leaving with her bodyguards.
If looks could kill, Skylar would’ve died several times over from the vicious look in Ingrid’s eyes when
she made her threat.
Tobias arrived sometime later, and Skylar threw herself into his arms the moment she saw him.
Had it not been for that phone call I made, I might have been taken and raped by those men long ago!
One of them was even holding a thick rope in his hand!
“Jeez, look at you all shaken up… Don’t worry, she won’t dare hurt you now,” Tobias said while holding
her tightly in his arms.
After taking a moment to calm down, Skylar mumbled, “Man, why do I have such bad luck? All I wanted
was to boost my popularity, but all it did was land me in all sorts of trouble!”
