After Skylar left with Tobias, the atmosphere in the public relations department immediately started
getting active.
“For Mr. Ford to come here at this hour, he must have understood how much this incident would affect
the company,” some commented.
Others complained, “To be honest, he didn’t look that concerned. He was even flirting with a little girl.”
“This is the first time we’ve seen the woman behind that Devil, just waltzing into the company like that.”
“The bosses secrets are none of our concern right now. Hurry up and get to work. The more we delay
this, the higher the chances for everyone here to lose their jobs.”
On the way back, Skylar had fallen asleep in the car. She did not wake up even when they reached the
house and Tobias did not want to wake her up. So they stayed there since the warmth in the car was
cozy enough.
Skylar slept through the night until the next day morning. When she opened her eyes to find herself in a
car, she rubbed her eyes, thinking she was still dreaming.

her messy hair.
“Why didn’t you wake me up?” Skylar yawned. She was still sleepy. “Did you stay in here the whole
night? You should’ve gone inside.”
Tobias smiled. “It’s alright. I was worried that you’d suffocate in the car and die. That’s going to crash
the value of this car for sure.”
Skylar frowned. This man really doesn’t have a way with words.
“Do you want to head to bed now?” She looked towards him.
“It’s early in the morning, I’m not interested in doing that right now,” Tobias answered seriously.
Skylar gave her forehead a massage helplessly, thinking that Tobias really knew how to put things
together. “I’m talking about just sleeping. None of those funny businesses you have in your head.”
“Oh…”
Having said that, Tobias still needed to head to the company, so he asked Skylar to go in herself.
After the two parted ways. Skylar immediately jumped into the shower cleaned herself. Kate was still
waiting for her at the audition after all.
The audition was held at the Excelsior Hotel. When Skylar arrived, a lot of people were already there
waiting.
There were quite a few that Skylar could actually name. Even the female lead for a popular net series,
Felicia Zaine, was there. She had stared in multiple series with billions of views.
The chances of Skylar securing the role of female lead over her was very slim.
While Skylar was flipping through the script, the crowd was getting worked up as Amelia Simons came
in. She had sunglasses on while she paraded inside, exuding an intense presence.
Skylar figured that, since they had the same manager, it was a good idea to go and greet Amelia.
Having said that, before Skylar could move, Amelia was already sitting down beside her. “I thought
Kate only arranged for me to do the audition. But you’re here too. Nice to meet you, I’m Amelia Simons,
you can call me Amelia.”
Skylar was surprised that Amelia recognized her. So she greeted her but did not ask Amelia to take
care of her or anything of that sort.
In the industry, not many people would go out of their way to take care of someone. Technically
speaking, Skylar and Amelia were competitors above all else.
“You’re still new. The character doesn’t suit you.” Amelia narrowed her eyes to look at Skylar, her tone
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas rude to say the least.
“You won’t know until you try I guess. Besides, I’m just here for the audition, I didn’t say anything about
wanting to play the female lead.”
Amelia thought that Skylar still had some self-awareness. What was Kate thinking when she arranged
for her to come with me.
To Amelia, Skylar had no results to show and was unworthy to be there at the audition. She’s only been
in one movie that’s still in post-production, no one even knows her.
This was the first time Skylar saw the script.
It was adapted from a popular web series where a wealthy girl fell in love with a poor guy. It
sounded like the worst kind of drama.
However, it was really popular online, even the male lead was confirmed to be Harry Reid, a famous
actor.
He was known as the prince of a certain school back then. Even Skylar heard about him when she was
in school. At that time, it was very popular to be non-mainstream, so a lot of people were using
Friendster.
There were a lot of photos of handsome men on the site and Harry would always be on it.
