Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 568

During the call, Sharon shrieked, “Are you helping us or not? If not, can’t you just tell us directly?”

Skylar had to move her phone away from her ear.

She felt that she should take Tobias’ advice as this was clearly a bottomless pit.

Meanwhile, Kate could sense that Skylar was distracted. After all, Skylar didn’t notice her presence

despite standing behind her for a long time.

All Skylar did was stare blankly into space.

“Have you familiarized yourself with the script of Love In 1978? The director is demanding an answer

from us about the contract.”

Given that she was lost in thought, Skylar was given a fright when she heard Kate’s voice. Holding her

hand over her heart, she turned around to face Kate.

As Kate had been busy with Amelia’s matters recently, Skylar found it difficult to meet her. Every time

she called, Kate would reply that she was busy and end the call abruptly.

Hence, Skylar was upset with Kate’s half-hearted attitude toward her. By focusing on Amelia, she felt that

Kate had neglected her. Although Kat couldn’t be everywhere at once, Skylar still expected her to carry

out her basic duties well. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Biting her lip, Skylar shook her head. “I don’t feel like accepting the role. The plot just isn’t engaging

enough. Given that they are rushing to complete the movie in time for the holiday season, it would likely

be a flop at the box office. I do not want such a stigma on me in my very first movie as the lead.”

Kate didn’t argue as Skylar was right about the script. It wasn’t as good as Pretty Detective in terms of

theme and plot. Furthermore, the director was rushing to complete it before the holidays.

However, her intention was to get Skylar a piece of the holiday film market.

Disappointed, Kate furrowed her eyebrows. “I feel that the scripts that suit you the most now are low-

budget movies like this. It’s easier for you to be a dark horse given the low expectations. Besides, you

can’t say that it’s a definite flop yet.”

Skylar could sense Kate’s displeasure. If she continued to be picky, she would likely end up with no work

before the holidays.

Given how obvious Kate had made it, Skylar decided to take a gamble. Perhaps, she could still use her

connections to get the screenwriter to make some amendments.

Having gone through the script, she found it to be boring. Even the jokes didn’t sound funny.

Skylar asked candidly, “Kate, why have you been focusing all your efforts on Amelia recently? Have I

done something to upset you?”

Staring at Kate’s increasingly short hair and the ring on her finger, Skylar suddenly recalled that Amelia

had shown off a similar ring in a selfie on her Instagram.

Given that both Kate and Amelia were wearing the same ring and Kate saw Amelia as a star, a sudden

realization dawned upon Skylar.

If what she assumed was true, it was a signal that she was falling behind the times.

Kate replied with a shrug, “The company’s focus changes all the time. Given how important the Pretty

Detective is to them, I would definitely have to keep a close eye on it. Besides, Amelia started acting

earlier than you did and is a good actress in her own right. Hence, there’s nothing wrong with promoting

her.”

Recovering her intense gaze, Skylar gave Kate a perfunctory laugh. “Alright then, Kate.”

While waiting for the car in front of the office, Skylar somehow felt that she was being followed. Over the

last few days, the landline at her house would ring inexplicably at midnight.

Madelyn was so frightened by it that she lost her rationality, saying that the house was haunted. Not

daring to answer, she hid in her room and refused to come out.

After a few consecutive days of it occurring, Skylar could no longer take it and rushed out of the bedroom

to answer. When she heard chilling laughter over the phone, it caused her hair to stand on end.

Other than laughing, the caller didn’t say anything else.

Meanwhile, when the bone-piercing cold wind blew across her face, she quickly stuffed her hands into

her pockets when she felt them freezing in the cold.

As the driver had yet to arrive and Hannah had gone on a date with her online boyfriend, she was left all

alone.

Just a few days ago, Hannah was crying over her breakup. Later on, Skylar found out that Hannah had

been using her photo to catfish her boyfriend online.

Skylar was infuriated when she first heard about it given what Hannah did was wrong. However, Skylar

let the matter slide after censuring her.

Furthermore, Skylar told Hannah that someone like that wasn’t worth her time. Hence, breaking up was

the right thing to do.

At that time, Hannah had promised her that she would not contact her boyfriend. However, in just two

days, both of them had reconciled and wanted to meet each other.
