In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 547

Skylar was supposed to go for the audition for Pretty Detective at first, but Amelia managed to steal that spot

through Kate after pictures of her were spread online.

To add insult to injury, Skylar was the last one to find out that Amelia had replaced her as the lead actress of the

show.

The sky was already dark and gloomy before it was even noon that day as Skylar and Kate sat across each other in

a café.

Their coffee had turned cold, and neither of them had touched their food much.

“Why didn’t I even get a chance to the audition? I was originally chosen for the lead role, so why is Amelia the one

holding it now?” Skylar didn’t want to lose her role as a lead actress without even knowing why. She felt the need to

bring it up with Kate or she could miss out on even more opportunities in the future.

Kate has found herself a few new faces lately, so Amelia and I are no longer the only celebrities working under her.

Well, Kate was never the type to invest everything into a single celebrity to begin with. She wants to come out on

top of the food chain in the entertainment industry, so having just one celebrity under her simply isn’t enough.

Skylar couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed as her efforts and preparations for the lead role had all been for

nothing when Kate chose Amelia instead.

“You were caught going on a date with some mysterious guy, and pictures of it went viral on the internet. As you

know, the negative publicity was very damaging for your reputation. Amelia, on the other hand, has no such issue

because she knows how to carry herself in public. Besides, I can’t have you hogging all the good stuff while

everyone else gets the scraps now, can I? That wouldn’t be very fair to the others,” Kate replied.

Skylar took a deep breath and said, “You could’ve informed me sooner instead of after I have completed all my

preparations. I’ve been promoting myself as the lead actress for Pretty Detective all this while!”

“The young really are green and naïve, huh… Listen, nothing is truly set in stone until the very last moment, got it?

It’s your responsibility to prepare for the audition regardless of whether you get the role in the end. Surely you

don’t expect to only do the audition for lead roles all the time, do you? The entertainment industry is a tough one to

be in, so you’d better learn to deal with failure and disappointment if you wish to remain. Anyway, it’s getting late,

so I suggest you head on home now!” Kate said with a chuckle.

Skylar didn’t even realize how dark the sky had gotten until Kate mentioned it.

She looked out the window and saw pedestrians dressed in thick sweaters and coats as they walked under the dim

lighting of the street lamps.

Kate offered to give her a lift, but Skylar refused and insisted on waiting for her driver to pick her up instead.

“The candidate for the Golden Eagle Goddess has been decided and is simply pending an official announcement. I

found out from someone on the inside that we’re no match for Sophia’s popularity, so you’ll just have to try and

boost yours to beat her next year,” Kate said before leaving.

Skylar wasn’t surprised by that as Sophia’s votes had always been in the lead since the beginning, thanks to her

beauty and amazing works throughout the past two years.

After waiting for what seemed like forever, Skylar gave her driver a call to see why he had yet to arrive. The driver

informed her that he was caught in the rush hour traffic which was worsened due to a car accident, so it would take

him quite some time to get there.

“May I sit here, Ms. Jones?” A voice came from the side, and Skylar turned around to see a handsome young man in

a white down jacket standing next to her.
