Chapter 589 Not Much Expectation

Tobias took a glance at the little clock on the bedside drawer. It wasn'teven seven o'clock yet. The sky was still dark outside, and the first lightof dawn just started creeping on the horizon.

“Why are you going there so early? What have you been doingrecently?”

Skylar's motion of putting on clothes slowed down. Tobias doesn’t evenknow what I've been busy about these days

Skylar bent over to put on her pants. “It's a holiday film. They're in arush to film the characters, as it would be sent to the Motion PictureAssociation for screening, and we'll finish shooting soon. Do you knowwho's our second female lead? Take a guess.”

Tobias was not bothered. “I'm not interested in celebrities. So, it doesn'tmatter to me at all.”

Skylar found that chatting with Tobias was extremely humdrum. Thisman has not even a bit of curiosity.

She replied, “It's Ingrid. Surprised, huh? I'm in the same filming crewwith her right now.”

Tobias frowned, and it was the reaction Skylar was hoping to see. Thatindicated that he actually paid attention to what she said.

“Why is she even in the entertainment industry? She looks like a pig.”Amused by Tobias’ merciless yet accurate description, Skylar answered,“Well, a princess needs to be showered with compliments. Now, theentire filming crew is praising her look, saying that she’s pretty, and shethinks she’s brilliant, too.”

Tobias was a little worried about Skylar mingling with Ingrid, so he saidin concern, “You'd better not interact with her too much. Ingrid isspoiled, and she's insolent as well as ignorant. She's not a kind soulsince young, and she hasn't changed much.”

Skylar acted tough and assured him that she would not be takenadvantage of. However, she wasn't certain about that. Ingrid was justlike a ticking time bomb with extremely unstable emotions.

Skylar left in a hurry without even having breakfast. Before she left, shepacked two buns in her bag. Usually, with her appetite, she couldactually eat four, but in order to control her weight, Skylar couldn’teven remember when the last time was she ate until she was full

When Tobias came downstairs, Skylar had already left. She saw twomen in black standing at the door.

Tobias’ efficiency and efficacy were heightened to a dramatic extentwhen it came to anything concerning Skylar and she was under theimpression that he was only mentioning it casually the night before.Who would have expected to see the bodyguards already on duty earlyin the morning?

Skylar looked at the two tall and strongly built men. Small eyes, fairskin, and short eyebrows; they had sharp features.

“Ms. Jones, you can just call me Cinque. We're here to take care of yoursafety.”

Skylar forced herself to look at the two of them. The other man didn'tintroduce himself. He just stood there without saying a word, and therewas a jarring scar on his face. This must be a man with a story.

The news that there were two bodyguards protecting Skylar was spreadamong the filming crew. In fact, it wasn't something new thatcelebrities, regardless of their gender, walked about with bodyguardsprotecting them.

The key was that someone recognized that the two bodyguards werethe bodyguards of the CEO of Ford Group, and that person was certainthat she didn’t mistake them for someone else.

And that particular person was Ingrid.

The fact that Tobias let his bodyguards protect Skylar would give rise toall kinds of speculations.

The bodyguards were considerate and understanding. When Skylar leftfor the filming site, they would wait in the MPV and never go far awayfrom outside the set.

The particular scene that day was filmed at a hospital, and their filminglocation was People’s Hospital.

The Ballad of 1978 was a story of the female protagonist, Lindsay, whowas a middle-aged woman with a successful career, but miserablepersonal life. Her life did look good on the veneer, but her marriagewas a failure. Her husband had an affair whereas her son was in hisrebellious phase, and everything was in a mess. On her fiftieth birthday,no one was there to celebrate with her. Her husband was busycelebrating the anniversary of his first meeting with his mistress whileher son treated her with verbal bashing, asking her to die.

Triggered, Lindsay went up to the rooftop, trying to end her own life.Nevertheless, she woke up just to replace that she had time-traveled backto the year 1978...

Skylar didn’t have much expectation on such a script. There had beentoo many motion pictures with such themes being filmed locally andoverseas.
