The sound of a phone vibrating echoed against the walls of the room, making it louder than it should

be.

Noticing that it was a call from Kate, Tobias picked up the call and sneaked out of the room.

“Apologies for calling at this hour, Mr. Ford. Did I disturb your sleep?” Kate asked.

Tobias lit a cigarette and gazed at the smoke. “Why are you calling me at this hour in the first place?”

“I wasn’t free earlier on,” Kate relied.

“That doesn’t mean I have to follow your schedule. We don’t have anything to talk about anyway,”

Tobias said coldly.

Kate fell silent for a few seconds before speaking again. “Can we meet tomorrow morning at eight-

thirty, Mr. Ford? Shall I go to Royal Entertainment or Ford Group?”

“Royal Entertainment,” Tobias answered.

Tobias had told Skylar to report at Royal Entertainment in the afternoon, and hence she was still

sleeping when he left the house.

Before he left, he took out a bottle of water from the fridge to get back at her for serving him water for

dinner the previous night.

By the time he arrived at Royal Entertainment, he was already an hour late.

Kate watched as Tobias sat down in front of her and grinned. “Looks like your attitude is the answer,

Mr. Ford. You can’t even be punctual for our meeting!”

“We have nothing to talk about,” Tobias repeated.

“Skylar’s doing heaps of advertisements with very low reward lately, but I believe she is worth much

more than that. I wouldn’t have asked to meet you if you have already severed ties with her,” Kate said.

The secretary entered the room to serve them tea, and Tobias smiled while taking a sip. “That doesn’t

matter. You’re not the only person who can help her rise to stardom.”

Kate gazed at him confidently. “I believe that I’m irreplaceable. I can maximize her potential in the

entertainment industry.”

Tobias admired her straightforward way of doing things, but she was threatening the wrong person.

He chuckled. “You see, I’m not a fan of bargaining. The payment I gave you was final, and it’s already

twice as much as any other manager in the industry. Aren’t you being a little too greedy here?”

Kate was indeed blinded by the lucrative amount that Tobias promised, and she wanted even more

than that. Royal Entertainment was affiliated with Ford Group, after all.

Knowing Tobias’ wealth, she figured that he would not have minded her request for a raise.

However, the last thing she expected was for him to reject her outright.

Kate flexed her fingers in displeasure, hoping to buy a little more time for herself to convince him.

Tobias glanced at his watch. “You have twelve hours to think about it, and if I don’t hear from your after

that, your payment would be halved. I have better things to do.”

Kate was taken aback by how he was using time to pressure her.

Kate was a smart person, and she did not want to waste any more time. She decided to just go ahead

with the contract that the secretary brought over fresh from the printer.

“I have a condition,” Kate said. “I want you to sign Amelia Simons under this company as well.”

Tobias agreed without much thought. He did not know who Amelia was, and he did not have to attend

to the details of the contract anyway.

All he wanted was to get Skylar a proper manager, and he hoped that she would learn to be

independent as she walked down the red carpet to stardom.

She would not accomplish anything if she depended on him for everything.
