In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 391

At that very moment, Skylar thought, The cologne is meant for womentoo. Maybe Tobias swings both ways. At that thought, a chill ran downSkylar's spine. Tobias will be furious if he reads my mind.

Pushing those thoughts aside, Skylar then chatted briefly with Largo.On the first day of joining the filming, Skylar belatedly realized Averyhad yet to leave the crew. As it turned out, Josiah refused to let her go;he had given her a role as a side character who was slightly moreimportant. It seemed like Josiah truly liked Avery.

Both Skylar and Avery went to the filming site on the same day. There,she encountered Thomas, the man Miranda thought about all day andnight.

Miranda was still lying in bed, pretending to be ill. She was miserablywaiting for the day Thomas would take her home. Yet, what he wasdoing was sending her daughter to the filming site as if she was a childwho needed her father to send her to school.

When they encountered, Thomas had still been reminding Avery not totire herself out and to take care of herself. Avery only nodded half-heartedly.

At that moment, Skylar wondered if she should have bought a lotteryticket. What kind of sh*tty luck do I have to witness this scene? Or arethey deliberately pretending to be sweet in front of me?

Skylar did everything alone. No one sent her to the filming site, and noone reminded her about taking care of herself. Even Tobias did notknow she had joined the filming crew.

Avery was wearing the same dress as Skylar was in the show—red.However, Skylar still looked better than Avery in it.

When the three of them locked eyes, none tried to make small talk nordid they greet each other. In fact, Avery looked as if she wanted to skinher alive.

Avery had sensed something amiss with Thomas. Generally, Thomaswould at least stick around to chat since Tobias had taken over QuestGroup. Yet, he did not.

After replaceing out about Skylar and Avery's relationship, Kate finallyknew why Skylar was only interested in the show after replaceing out Averywas one of the main characters.

Moving the chair to the doorway of the motorhome, she frowned andsaid, “Your relationship with your dad and your mother's background isa ticking time bomb.”

At that, Skylar only forced a smile to her face and replied, “Society isn'tthat nice to people like us. I even thought about having a peacefulquiet life working for the government, but unfortunately, some thingsare out of my control. The government checks the background of everyemployee they hire, and with my background, they won't hire me evenif I'm excellent with everything else who knew that I'd still have to worryabout everything after joining the entertainment industry. I'm scaredthat someone will expose every part of my history and leave me barefor everyone to attack. I know it'll happen eventually, but I just hopethat the netizens will be more merciful when they attack me.”

Hearing that, Kate fell silent. It was a tough matter to deal with. It wasone thing to have someone who had a bad credit history in the family,but it was a whole different matter to have a murderer in the family.Skylar's mother was a murderer, and her biological father was a manwith a negative credit history. If someone were to replace out about herfamily background, Skylar's career was destined to be negativelyaffected.

It was rare for Skylar to see Kate stumped. She could see that it wouldbe a grueling matter for her to deal with the ticking time bomb.

With a smile, she mumbled, almost to herself, “I'm not popular enoughfor them to investigate my history yet. If that day really comes, we'll seewhat we can do. It's not like we can do anything about it now.”
