When Skylar walked over to the door, she spotted a man in a black suit and white gloves standing there stiffly.
Holding a painting that had been rolled up with both hands, he presented it to her.
“Here, this is a gift from my boss.”
“I don’t accept gifts from fans, so please return it to your boss,” Skylar declined tactfully.
Her words fell into Xena’s ears, and she scoffed, “Hah! You don’t accept gifts from fans? Just drop the high and mighty act! If I were you, I would accept it gratefully. After all, there’s no point acting all generous when you already have your back to the wall. You’d be better off thinking about your future since no one can help you, what’s more with that family background of yours. If you accept the gift and sell it off later, the money will help you out a bit so that you won’t be so hard-pressed.”
Hearing that, Skylar turned and threw her a glance. Jeez, this woman is really flapping her lips too much without any reservations!
Meanwhile, the man kept his hands outstretched, so Skylar had no choice but to take the painting from him. The moment she opened it, she sucked in a breath.
