Cassidy couldn’t eat much because she wanted to lose weight. She picked up a small slice casually and replied to
Josiah, “Skylar probably doesn’t want to see me because we fell out with each other before. I mean, she bullied me
when she was still a new actress. Back then, I felt depressed and even cried many times because of it! Even if she
didn’t apologize to me, I won’t force her to since we’re on the same team.”
Meanwhile, Largo remained silent and kept drinking his beer. Since a simple dinner had turned into a gossip fest, he
chose not to get involved in it.
Largo personally didn’t hate Skylar at all, though Skylar didn’t have a good impression of him. Besides, Skylar even
accused him of being a hypocrite.
He only felt that it was a pity, for Skylar was determined not to sell her body.
However, he also refrained from messing with Skylar, or she would expose his pimping business. Apart from
affecting his reputation, he might even go to jail for the crime.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDeep down, Largo always reflected on his actions but still couldn’t control himself. Even though he was wealthy, he
failed to restrain his desire to make more money.
As such, he recently thought of going to a psychologist so he could rid of this bad habit.
At this moment, Largo knew very well that Avery was pretending to be tipsy to slander Skylar. After all, she applied
the same trick to get into his bed and sleep with him earlier.
Meanwhile, Avery swirled her wine glass and asked Josiah, “Mr. Zimmermann, why wasn’t I the female lead? You
said that I was the most suitable candidate for the character. Didn’t Skylar disappoint you this time? I mean, how
could she carry the TV show? No offense, but I won’t support her blindly just because she’s a Jones.”
Although Avery appeared pitiful, Josiah wasn’t swayed by her. Instead, he opined that Skylar’s acting skills were way
beyond his expectations.
After shooting the third scene, Josiah strongly believed that Skylar was the right person to play that character.
In terms of persona and posture, Skylar performed way better than Avery.
However, because Avery seemed pitiful, Josiah could only pretend to comfort her. “You’re an excellent actress as
well. We can work together next time.”
Avery felt dispirited because she didn’t hear what she wanted. Deep down, she increasingly felt that the world was
unfair to her. Why does everyone favor Skylar instead of giving me a chance?
Miles away, Skylar didn’t lock the door because Tobias said he would come later tonight.
Since the filming crew stayed in the same hotel, Skylar was worried that someone would notice Tobias’ presence.
After all, they hadn’t made their relationship public for now.
Marcus revealed earlier today that Skylar and Tobias were dating. Nonetheless, they could still keep their
relationship a secret, for they knew everyone in the VIP lounge.
After putting down the food that she packed from the restaurant, Skylar said to Tobias, “The food is now cold. If you
haven’t had dinner, I’ll order takeaway for you.”
However, she felt that her question was redundant as she could smell the alcohol coming from Tobias, which had

The next moment, Tobias held her waist from behind and rested her head against her neck. After kissing her, he
said, “I’ve had dinner. Why didn’t you tell me that you’re coming to Dellmoor? I wouldn’t leave earlier if I knew that
you would be here.”
Skylar rebutted, “Well, you didn’t tell me either that you would come to Dellmoor. Anyway, I shouldn’t ask too many
questions about you.”
Tobias loosened his grip. As he was thirsty, he opened the bottle of soda that Skylar had drunk earlier on.
“I know I wasn’t nice to you when we were at the airport. Please forgive me. Anyway, the man’s my brother. You
should stay away from him, for he is an a**hole like Ingrid.”
Skylar didn’t dwell on it because Tobias took the initiative to apologize. Given that Tobias always lord over everyone,
many would feel a sense of dominance whenever he talked.
Besides, Skylar also thought that it was odd how she had gotten used to the way he express himself.
After all, she was not like other girls, who would often act coquettishly around men like him.
