117 Chapter 117: Comparison Between Kylie and Khloe (1/2)

Once Kylie's face was on the cover of Extreme Luxury, all the people who had doubted her immediately shut their mouths. The curve of her body, the expression on her face, and her natural pose was just so impressive for someone who was doing this for the first time. In fact, someone like Kylie had not graced show business for a long time, and critics were predicting Kylie was going to be the next Gisele Bündchen.

Some photographers and entertainment journalists had even released several candid photos of Kylie, and all agreed on Kylie's outstanding photogenic ability, her pose, and just her natural aura. She was perfect from every aspect of the photographer's eye. Everyone had forgotten Kylie's unmemorable roles in the past and the fact that she had been forced to apologize to Khloe. It was the natural beauty of Kylie that remained in everybody's mind.

Before long, Lucas, who was still considered Kylie's agent, started receiving many offers from different sources such as advertisement endorser, reality show invitation, and much more for him to count. With Khloe's contracts now completely ending, Lucas had found newfound respect and admiration for Kylie. She had turned her adversity and depression into something positive, which was inspiring.

This was the exact reason that Laurence was angry all the time. Kylie's newfound popularity and Khloe's career decline was too much for him to bear. How the hell had he lost control of his own daughter? How had she beaten him in his own game? Laurence started to feel a headache creeping up on him as he thought of this whole fiasco. But then a thought came to his mind: why not follow the trend? Why not give Kylie a helping hand?

Lucas had reported all contracts and invitations for Kylie to Laurence and discussed with him which ones were feasible for Kylie to perform in. It was then that Khloe walked in the office, already in a sour mood. When she heard the topic of discussion, she almost had a meltdown.

”Lucas, what's wrong with you? Haven't I already told you to turn down all the invitations for Kylie?”

Laurence did not say a word but was irritated at his step-daughter's tone towards Lucas while standing in his office. Did she regard herself as the boss of Garcia Entertainment now?

Lucas looked up at Khloe and chose to remain quiet, knowing if he said anything, Khloe would chew him out.

”I think this advertisement is fine,” Laurence said as he too ignored Khloe's outburst. He chose an advertisement offer from a historic brand and threw it towards Lucas.

”Um…Dad, what are you doing?” Khloe felt indignant. She was already on a short fuse, and her dad and Lucas were doing nothing to calm her down.

”Khloe, I'm doing this for your own good. As long as Kylie has a job, the rumor of my preference to you over Kylie will not be able to hold water. Then, no one can dare blame you for showing up in any activities again.” Laurence comforted Khloe with a loving look. He can't let her feel upset. He added, ”There is more than a month until the Oscars. I'll help you win an important deal prior to that. Once you appear gloriously in front of their face, that award is sure to be yours! Kylie will be considered a nobody!”

Khloe was immediately relieved by her father's explanation. She skipped to her father and gave him a big hug. ”I knew you'll always stand by my side Daddy,” Khloe said as she kissed her father's cheek.
