At the film set, the lights were shone on Skylar. When the director told her the requirements for that scene, Skylar’s
immediate reaction was to back out.
That scene was way more obscene than what the woman had initially thought. She was also required to dress so
skimpily that it was as good as not wearing anything.
That director was notorious in the industry for being a maniac. Due to that reason, he had a reputation for
offending people.
His most famous quote was, “Even if my works don’t make sense to the world, they are all pieces of art.”
Skylar wondered if Hugo had even considered whether the scene would be approved for screening.
“I didn’t know that the scene would be so explicit. I don’t think I will be able to continue filming.” The woman raised
her objections.
Hugo looked towards the assistant director and yelled at him angrily, “What’s going on? Didn’t you make it clear to
her previously? If she can’t do this scene, why is she here in the first place?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe assistant director immediately tried to talk to Skylar, hoping to change her mind. He was panicking so badly
that he was almost kneeling down to beg Skylar to continue filming.
Clasping his hands together, he tried his best to persuade the woman, “My dear Skylar, I’m begging you. Please
don’t back out now. Didn’t we agree on it previously? Filming is already behind schedule now. If you suddenly pull
out, we won’t be able to find a replacement on such short notice. Can you please just compromise a little?”
Faced with the assistant director’s begging, Skylar remained firm. “Unless the script is amended, my decision is
final. We did come to an agreement previously, but no one told me that I’ll have to strip to my underwear. I’m not
even the main cast, and I won’t be benefiting much from this film. Hence, there’s no reason why I should make
such a huge sacrifice.”
The assistant director replied anxiously, “But your agency had agreed, and we’ve already signed the contract.
Besides, you are getting paid for it.”
Skylar cast a contemptuous gaze at the man and said, “Thirty thousand for a scene like that? Do you think I’m that
cheap? Don’t try to threaten me by bringing up my agency. I’ve already made up my mind that I won’t continue
filming.”
After a lengthy negotiation, Skylar got increasingly annoyed and left with Hannah directly.
When they were outside of the studio, Hannah asked, “I’m sure Ms. Fey won’t be happy with this. It’s not easy to get
a chance to work with Hugo after all.”
Skylar frowned and replied, “I don’t mind passing up on this opportunity. Given the degree of obscenity of that
scene, even if it doesn’t pass the screening requirements, it would definitely spread like wildfire on the Internet if
leaked.”
“Skylar…” While Skylar was still talking away, she suddenly heard someone calling her name. When she turned
around, she saw that it was Kai but did not respond to him.
Kai was the male lead who was specially appointed by the director himself. On such a cold day, the man was
wearing just ankle pants and canvas shoes. He had also gotten a crew cut and dyed his hair yellow.
That image reminded Skylar of the hooligans she used to see at her school gate when she was still schooling.
During that time, girls tended to be attracted to guys who spotted a “bad boy” image like that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs compared to Tobias, Kai was much less mature. Full of energy, he always walked with a skip in his step.
Even though the man ran towards Skylar, given his strength and fitness level, he did not even need to catch his
breath.
“I just heard that you’re here too. Do you not filter the jobs you take up? Does Tobias really let you do whatever you
want to?”
Before Skylar could give her reply, Kai answered his own question. “Oh right, why would he care? He doesn’t care
about anything anyway.”
Skylar was not aware of any feud between Kai and Tobias, but she realized that it frustrated Kai whenever Tobias
was mentioned.
“My agency had arranged for it, but when I knew the requirements of the scene, I pulled out of it right away. So,
please don’t say that I have no filters.”
The conversation with Kai had aggravated Skylar’s initial irritation, and she was burning with anger right then.
Kai was rather surprised to hear that. Isn’t Valerie afraid of offending Tobias by doing that?
As such, Kai came to a conclusion as he said, “Valerie has no respect for you at all. She’s getting too pampered and
is becoming arrogant. Even though you are Tobias’ woman, she did not spare a thought for you at all.
