Is Eva trying to find out whether there’s something going on between Tobias and me? But that’s not like her at all. As far as I know, she isn’t a straightforward person, so she’ll certainly beat around the bush and sound me out via WhatsApp, instead of asking openly.
“Don’t worry. She doesn’t know about our relationship. If you don’t like her, I’ll ask the HR Department to inform her not to come to work anymore.”
Tobias sounded totally carefree. The man had no regard for the tremendous effort the others put in to climb the ladder and become a high-position assistant. He only cared about the results.
That was why he could kick Eva out anytime, in case Skylar wasn’t comfortable with her presence around him.
Skylar thought about it for a moment. “What’s the point of firing her? Her presence doesn’t bother me. But you’d better stay loyal. I don’t want to see you get together with any other woman before we break up.”
After finishing a cigarette, Tobias threw it into an ashtray. ”Are you warning me not to get together with your cousin? I’m very choosy when it comes to women. You’ll have to keep me satisfied if you want me to stay loyal to you. Only then I won’t cheat on you.”
On the next day, Skylar realized that almost everyone in the filming crew stared at her inquisitively when she went to the filming site. The news about her relationship with Tobias had spread like wildfire.
Behind her back, they were chattering that she would surely be the female lead of the upcoming blockbuster movie, and her future was secured.
Right after she put on her makeup, Winnie came over with a cup of coffee. “Ms. Jones, I’m sorry. My assistant didn’t see you after buying coffees yesterday. That’s why she didn’t give it to you.”
With a smile, Skylar took the cup of coffee from her and handed it to Hannah right away. “If I’m not mistaken, I’m two years younger than you, so there’s no need to address me as ‘Ms. Jones’.”
“I’ll call you Skylar then. Sheldon said we should take care of one another. I don’t have any friend here, so I think of you as my buddy.” Winnie tried to curry favor with her.
However, Skylar disliked bootlickers. The smile on her face gradually faded away. “The crew is looking for me. I should get going.”
Annoyed by Skylar’s arrogant attitude, Connie said with a sullen face, ”She has been lying low and waiting for Tobias to show up so that she can humiliate you. Such a vicious woman! Look at her. She’s so full of herself.”
Winnie glared at Skylar’s departing back. Her voice sounded deeper than usual. “What can I do? As an artiste under Royal Entertainment, Tobias is my boss too. But she grabbed the opportunity and slept with the boss right after joining the company.”
“Winnie, you’re not bad yourself. Mr. Ford is so into you. I’m sure he’ll side with you.”
The filming of ‘Unrequited Love’ was half-done. Today’s outdoor shooting was at a college, as the scene was a flashback. Skylar changed into a blue and white school uniform. Then, the stylist dyed her hair black and put on hair extensions for her. Now her long and silky hair reached her waist.
Her makeup was light and minimal, making her look young and innocent.
Numerous college students gathered around to watch the filming, and it took the security guards a long while to clear the site.
Quite a number of Harry’s fans came over, calling out his name enthusiastically. As a result, the audio quality of the filming was greatly affected.
Sitting languidly on a foldable chair, Skylar was taking sips of tea. The afternoon sun cast a bright, warm light on her, and she could barely open her eyes.
At the same time, her phone rang incessantly with repeated calls from Miranda.
“What’s the matter? I’m going to start filming soon, so I can’t talk to you for long.”
