In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO -
Chapter 288
Is Eva trying to replace out whether there's something going on betweenTobias and me? But that's not like her at all. As far as I know, she isn't astraightforward person, so she'll certainly beat around the bush andsound me out via WhatsApp, instead of asking openly.
“Don't worry. She doesn’t know about our relationship. If you don't likeher, I'll ask the HR Department to inform her not to come to workanymore.”
Tobias sounded totally carefree. The man had no regard for thetremendous effort the others put in to climb the ladder and become ahigh-position assistant. He only cared about the results.
That was why he could kick Eva out anytime, in case Skylar wasn'tcomfortable 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'twant to see you get together with any other woman before we breakup.”
After finishing a cigarette, Tobias threw it into an ashtray. "Are youwarning me not to get together with your cousin? I'm very choosywhen it comes to women. You'll have to keep me satisfied if you wantme to stay loyal to you. Only then I won't cheat on you.”
On the next day, Skylar realized that almost everyone in the filmingcrew stared at her inquisitively when she went to the filming site. Thenews about her relationship with Tobias had spread like wildfire.Behind her back, they were chattering that she would surely be thefemale lead of the upcoming blockbuster movie, and her future wassecured.
Right after she put on her makeup, Winnie came over with a cup ofcoffee. “Ms. Jones, I'm sorry. My assistant didn't see you after buyingcoffees 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 toHannah right away. “If I'm not mistaken, I'm two years younger thanyou, so there's no need to address me as “Ms. Jones."
“Ill call you Skylar then. Sheldon said we should take care of oneanother. 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 graduallyfaded 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 thatshe can humiliate you. Such a vicious woman! Look at her. She's so fullof herself."
Winnie glared at Skylar's departing back. Her voice sounded deeperthan usual. “What can I do? As an artiste under Royal Entertainment,Tobias is my boss too. But she grabbed the opportunity and slept withthe boss right after joining the company.”
“Winnie, you're not bad yourself. Mr. Ford is so into you. I'm sure he'llside with you.”
The filming of “Unrequited Love’ was half-done. Today's outdoorshooting was at a college, as the scene was a flashback. Skylar changedinto a blue and white school uniform. Then, the stylist dyed her hairblack and put on hair extensions for her. Now her long and silky hairreached her waist.
Her makeup was light and minimal, making her look young andinnocent.
Numerous college students gathered around to watch the filming, andit took the security guards a long while to clear the site.
Quite a number of Harry's fans came over, calling out his nameenthusiastically. As a result, the audio quality of the filming was greatlyaffected.
Sitting languidly on a foldable chair, Skylar was taking sips of tea. Theafternoon sun cast a bright, warm light on her, and she could barelyopen her eyes.
At the same time, her phone rang incessantly with repeated calls fromMiranda.
“What's the matter? I'm going to start filming soon, so I can't talk toyou for long.”
