Chapter 320
Chapter 320:
She turned to face the open doorway, where the staff had gathered, watching in shock.
Daphne, the head of talent, stood at the front, looking terrified.
“First order of business,” Skye announced, her voice carrying through the silent office. “Fire the HR director p>
“On what grounds?” Daphne squeaked.
“Incompetence,” Skye said. “He let a hostile work environment fester for months. He allowed bullying. He’s gone. Pack his desk p>
The room was deathly silent.
“Second,” Skye continued, “bring me the file on Chloe. The new girl. The one Whitney locked in the supply closet last week p>
“Chloe?” Daphne asked. “She’s raw. She has no training p>
“She has hunger,” Skye said. “And she wasn’t given a chance because of nepotism. Bring her to me. She’s our new lead for the Celestia campaign p>
The office stirred, a ripple of disbelief moving through the onlookers.
Suddenly, Whitney rushed in, having taken the next elevator. Her face was red. “You can’t do this! My father is an investor p>
“Your father owns 0.5%,” Skye said without looking up from the files. “I own the debt. Which means I own the equity p>
Whitney marched up to the desk. “You think you’re special just because you married rich p>
Skye rose slowly. She leaned over the desk.
“I didn’t buy this company with Liam’s money, Whitney,” Skye said. “I bought it with the money I made betting against him. Now get your things. You’re fired p>
Whitney’s arm shot up.
She tried to slap Skye.
Skye didn’t flinch. Felix didn’t even have to move.
Skye caught Whitney’s wrist in midair. Her grip was iron. Years of dance had given her deceptive strength.
“Don’t,” Skye whispered, her voice low and dangerous.

She twisted Whitney’s wrist, forcing the girl to bend back. “Touch me again,” Skye said, “and I will file assault charges. You will never work in this city. Not as a dancer. Not as a waitress. Not even as a janitor. I will delete you p>
She shoved Whitney back.
Whitney stumbled and fell into a chair. She stared at Skye with pure terror, finally seeing the predator beneath the skin.
“Security,” Skye said calmly. “Escort the trash out p>
Two guards grabbed Whitney and dragged her away, kicking and screaming.
A moment later, a young girl stepped inside.
Chloe.
She was small and trembling, with big eyes like a deer in headlights.
“Ms… Ms. Sterling?” Chloe whispered.
Skye’s expression softened. She walked over to the girl.
“Skye,” she corrected. “Do you want to be a star, Chloe p>
Chloe nodded frantically.
“Then trust me,” Skye said. “I’m going to make you shine. But first… we have a campaign to save p>
