The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1131

Melinda lifted her chin slightly and laughed, “Yeah, I got where I am today thanks to money, and I’ve never denied that! But, so what? In the entertainment industry, how many really made it through with pure talent? Who hasn’t used all sorts of methods to grab roles? I don’t need to rely on anyone or make any dodgy deals! Being born lucky is a skill too!”

She said it without any pretense. Even though Melinda’s words might have stepped on a few toes, using various methods to get the roles they wanted had almost become the norm in today’s entertainment industry and it was an open secret.

Everyone knew this, so who wouldn’t be envious of Melinda. She could get anything she wanted without lifting a finger. All because she had a rich dad! “Being born lucky is a skill?” Crysti sneered, nodding her head and looking up at Melinda.

“You’re right.” She said calmly, stroking the thin blanket over her legs. It looked like she didn’t care, but there was a hint of self–mockery in her tone. “You saw things more clearly than I did. I was too naïve.”

“Hmph.” Melinda scoffed; her arrogance and confidente almost seemed innate.

“So, do you have any skills now?” Crysti asked indifferently.

Melinda’s face suddenly changed. Her father had gone bankrupt. Her pride and joy, her only bargaining chip, was gone.

Looking at her, Crysti couldn’t help but laugh, “What right does a person with no skills have to be arrogant in front of me?” “You…”

“Oh, wait,” Crysti cut off Melinda and turned her gaze to Philip, “Lost the protection of your father but gained the support of a fiancé. Not bad. But are you sure Philip likes this ‘skill‘ of yours?”

As her words fell, there were a few snickers from the crowd. In this circle, who didn’t know that Philip chose Melinda solely because of her father’s wealth?

He’d wanted a woman who could help his career, but now it seemed this woman had become a burden!
