NovelOnlinePollyanna finished the bread and the entire bottle of soda. Skylar took out
every single cent she had on herself and pushed the money into Pollyanna’s
hands.
Quietly, she said, “Take this money and buy some food for yourself when
you’re hungry. Don’t let your mother find out.”
Pollyanna nodded thankfully at her. Shyly, she asked, “Miss, can I call you Mom?”
This was a little shocking to Skylar. She shook her head and said kindly, “I don’t have any children yet.
Just call me Skylar, okay?”
“Oh.” Pollyanna sounded a little crestfallen. She turned around and fled without looking back at her.
Kai saw this and said to Skylar, “Don’t be so kind to everyone you see. I’ve heard stories about the
children here. Whenever they see someone from out of town, they act pitiful so they can get free food.
Lots of people in the production crew have encountered this sort of incident.”

Skylar didn’t think much of it. Who cared if Pollyanna had tricked her out of her money? The kid was
just peckish. There was no need to be so calculative about it.
Skylar and Kai made their way to the shooting location. Kai followed after her as Skylar led the way. His
tall, bulky build completely shielded her body from the sun.
When they all got there, everyone’s eyes turned to Kai. Although he was a newbie in the industry, he
held a rather prestigious status as the only son of Henry Group’s CEO. He was a walking God of
Fortune.
Unbeknownst to Skylar, Henry Group had another connection to her. The CEO was Tobias’ uncle.
This made Tobias Kai’s older cousin. Anyone with a background as powerful as Kai’s was surrounded
by bootlickers everywhere they went. Even the director himself was obliged to treat him favorably.
Katrina was the happiest person to see Kai’s arrival. Skylar couldn’t help but suspect that the two of
them were somehow involved with each other.
Skylar’s scenes would only be starting filming tomorrow. She returned to her room to memorize her
script again, conveniently steering clear of Jeremy.
When Jeremy found out that she had lost the role of the lead actress to Katrina, he started mocking her
loudly whenever he saw her around the set. Seeing the malicious smile on his face, Skylar was so
angry that she could hardly breathe.
She wormed into her bed and held her phone high up above her face. The signal here was horrible.
The Wi-Fi router was basically a decorative item, and her data was working very poorly. It took her
ages to send out one message.
She texted Tobias: Are you online? Have you returned from Thailand?
He replied almost instantly: I’m back. I’m having a meeting at the office now.
Skylar lay on her side and held the phone up to her face. For the past two days, chatting with Tobias on
WhatsApp was the only thing she looked forward to.
With Tobias, she felt too shy to say anything romantic. Even a simple “I miss you” seemed immensely
difficult to her.
She sent him another message: I won’t bother you if you’re in a meeting, then. I was just bored so
wanted to know what you were doing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTobias didn’t reply for a long time. Just as Skylar was starting to wonder if he had ended the
conversation, her phone screen lit up with a notification again.
You aren’t bothering me. Find a movie to watch if you’re so bored.
Skylar replied: There haven’t been any good movies recently.
Tobias sent her a link to a streaming website.
Skylar clicked on the link excitedly. When the website finally loaded, however, she flushed scarlet
immediately. Her heart was beating so fast that she felt a little light-headed.
Nevertheless, curiosity got the better of her and she clicked on the video immediately. However, she
didn’t expect it to play so quickly. Immediately, the lewd sounds of a woman moaning filled the quiet
room.
Skylar quickly returned to WhatsApp.
She sent him another message: Why are you making me watch stuff like that?
Tobias replied: Baby, do you want to spice up our bedroom life? Take a lesson or two from her. We can
get closer that way.
A series of embarrassing images popped into Skylar’s mind as she read his message. She was bent
over Tobias’s lap—he raised his hand and swung it down on her buttocks with a humiliating slap,
leaving a clear, red mark on the flesh.
