Lisa replied, “She’s just an ordinary girl in her freshman year of college. If she had connections, she

would have been chosen to be the female lead from the start. One of the crew members saw Kai

leaving her room this morning though.”

Shocked to hear that Kai’s name, Katrina grinned and said, “No wonder Skylar was so brazen just now.

Turns out she has hooked up with the son of a tycoon.”

Lisa then said in doubt, “Skylar probably doesn’t know much about his background. Not many people in

the crew know either.”

Katrina scoffed. “Come on, she’s already sucking up to him. Do you actually think she doesn’t know

who he is? I’ll organize a dinner party tonight to find out.”

After they wrapped up for the day, she invited the whole crew for a dinner.

The happiest person in the group was Jeremy, who kept showering Katrina with praises for her

generosity. He tried hard to butter up to her, but she merely took him as a nobody.

Skylar put on some light makeup and changed into a white loose-fitting t-shirt matched with a pair of

skinny jeans.

She had brought a lot of old summer wear with her, and it was only now that she realized she had a lot

of t-shirts with cartoon prints.

In the past, she used to love such clothing, but she now thought that they were childish.

One of the t-shirts had a print of Tom and Jerry. Jerry was holding a big block of cheese, while Tom was

drooling as he watched on.

Skylar checked herself in front of the mirror for a long time before she finally left, but there were still no

messages on her phone.

To receive a message from Tobias the first thing after she finished shooting for the day was what she

hoped for every day. Even an emoji was good enough for her.

When she went downstairs, she saw a black Mercedes-Benz covered in a thick layer of dust. It was as

though the vehicle had been abandoned in the parking lot for a long period of time.

Suddenly, the window rolled down. “Hop in. I’ll take you there. You don’t need to take the bus.”

The man turned out to be Kai.

Skylar held on to her leather bag anxiously and stammered, “I-I will take…”

Before she could finish speaking, Kai opened the car door for her. As soon as she got in, she felt

relieved by the stream of cold air from the air-conditioning.

“I watched your acting today. You are really talented, and you’re a lot better than an acting school

graduate like me,” he said.

Kai, who was sitting in the passenger’s seat, turned back to look at her. As soon as he laid eyes on her,

he was captivated by her cute and sweet looks.

“I attended the acting school too,” Skylar emphasized.

Kai smiled. “I see. Do you enjoy meat fondue by the way?”

She noticed that he was deliberately trying to make small talk so they wouldn’t feel awkward in the car.

Nevertheless, she did not pay much attention to him since she was sitting alone in the back seat.

Instead, she took out her phone to check if she had received any messages from Tobias.

Skylar: I’m on my way to have meat fondue. Have you eaten?

She stared at the screen for a while after sending the message, but there was no reply.

Seeing how dazed she looked while holding her phone, Kai asked her with a smile, “Are you waiting for

messages? From your boyfriend?”

Skylar was taken aback by his question. Is my expression that obvious?

She nodded and said, “Yup, boyfriend.”

Kai’s expression turned slightly sour as he let out a sigh. “I thought you were single. Having a boyfriend

before you make your big debut would affect your career,” he said.

Skylar didn’t bother to rebut his statement since she was generally not a very ambitious person.

Meanwhile, the crew was impressed when they reached the restaurant. It turned out that Katrina had

booked the whole place for their dinner party.

After Kai went into the restaurant, Skylar stood at the entrance to check her phone again. Her heart

skipped a beat when she saw an unread message.

Tobias: I’m still busy. Haven’t eaten yet.

Tobias’ message put a smile on her face as she was relieved that he wasn’t being cold to her anymore.

Just a few simple words from him made her feel warm and closer to him.

On this sultry summer day, heat radiated in the air while the sound of buzzing cicadas and people’s
