Marcus said with a grin on his face, “I’ve been hiding from you for a long time. How long do you want me to
continue hiding? I’ve had enough to be a fugitive. So, you might as well finish me off to end my suffering.”
Skylar failed to pretend that she didn’t know Tobias. After the incident, the assistant director, who sat next to her on
the plane, asked a series of questions. “Skylar, are you dating Tobias now? No wonder you signed a contract with
Royal Entertainment. When will you make it public? I can imagine the envious looks on the actresses’ faces the
moment you make it public.”
Skylar flashed him a wry smile. Deep in her heart, she intended to say that it probably wouldn’t happen for the rest
of her life.
When people were gossiping, there would always be someone who said unpleasant things. “I think she is merely his
acquaintance. We’re lucky to meet the lucky one today. Anyway, a prominent family like the Fords won’t accept an
actress. Winnie used to be arrogant when she was dating Sheldon, but look at her now! It’s clear that Sheldon had
forgotten her.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Skylar couldn’t stand listening to the gossips, she put on the earplugs given by the air stewardess to have peace
of mind.
Skylar hadn’t seen Winnie for a long time but only heard that Claudia made Winnie and Sheldon break up.
Back then, the relationship between Sheldon and Winnie was ambiguous. After all, he never made it public that they
were dating. This time, his attitude toward her was entirely different, for he broke up with Winnie straightforwardly.
On the other hand, no one believed Skylar could marry a prominent figure because the public persona that she built
was of a pitiful actress.
Initially, Skylar thought that Tobias would board the same plane with her. It turned out that she overthought it.
It was true that Tobias was in the VIP airport lounge with her earlier on. Soon, she was startled to find out that he
was boarding his private jet instead, to Dellmoor.
Apparently, he had no intention of inviting her.
Due to the flight’s delay, Skylar was nearly an hour late to the event.
Meanwhile, the reporters got impatient and began to grumble about her tardiness.
Skylar was in her sportswear, which was her attire when she boarded the flight. Due to time constraints, she didn’t
change her clothes and went up to the stage directly. Meanwhile, Largo, who was in a formal suit, stood on the
stage handsomely.
Once she got up, she bowed to the reporters and apologized, “My sincere apologies for being late. My flight was
delayed at the last minute. I’m so sorry for keeping you waiting.”
Given that Skylar was sincere and didn’t even get to change her clothes, the reporters were satisfied and decided
not to condemn her through their writings.
Rumors about Skylar and Avery had been widely spread for a few days. Since both of them were present now, they
naturally came under the spotlight.
Today was the trailer premiere of Empyrean Sword, a TV show set in ancient times. A few hundred million was
spent on its special effects, while the team spent three years from scene construction to post-production to
produce the masterpiece.
In the trailer, Skylar, who was in a green dress, looked cute but slightly rebellious. Besides, the cherry blossom

As Avery was watching the trailer, she clenched her fists in anger. This stage and the female lead were supposed to
be mine!
Meanwhile, exclamations and praises filled the air, for everyone commended Skylar for her beauty.
Even though the trailer was merely 10-minute-long, its plot, movie characters’ costumes, and special effects were
enthralling.
Avery couldn’t help but feel dispirited. I will be the center of attention right now if Skylar doesn’t exist in the first
place. The b*tch has ruined everything!
“Do you guys feel awkward with one another?” One of the reporters began to ask.
Knowing that she couldn’t avoid such questions forever, Skylar gazed at Avery smilingly and replied, “Not really. As
they say, let bygones be bygones. We can’t choose our parents, after all. Moreover, Avery couldn’t dictate her
mother’s choice back then.”
On the other hand, Avery’s face darkened, for Skylar kept suggesting that her mom was a homewrecker. Besides,
Avery still couldn’t understand why her father would reveal what happened in the past.
“Avery, what do you have to say in response to Skylar’s remark?” Another reporter asked.
