Winnie and Sheldon cuddled and nuzzled up freely in public, not giving a damn about the people
around them. She was keen to let the whole world know about her relationship with Sheldon.
Winnie tiptoed to lean closer to whisper in the man’s ear, “Don’t you think that I’m more suited to be the
female lead? Am I marked by bad luck or something? I’m always the supporting actress, no matter how
hard I work. Look, the female lead is over there. Doesn’t she look just like a vixen?”
Sheldon’s heart skipped a beat at her words. Placing a finger over her lips, he whispered, “Mind your
words. You’ll be the female lead one day. But this time, you’ll have to swallow your pride.”
Despite her dissatisfaction, Winnie gave in.
Meanwhile, Tobias was leaning against the railing on the stairway while looking down at the lower floor.
His eyes were riveted on Skylar solely.
Waiting silently beside him, Susan dared not urge her boss.

“Mr. Ford, you’re still at work.” Hearing a voice behind him, Tobias looked over his shoulder and saw
Emily walking toward him.
She had just come down from the top floor to get some fresh air. The woman was pleasantly surprised
to run into Tobias. It’s too bad that Susan is by his side.
The man hummed coldly in response. In an instant, Emily felt that the awkwardness in the atmosphere
was almost suffocating.
“Why are you still here? Are you waiting for us to send you back?” Susan reprimanded her.
With her lips pressed together, Emily shook her head. Though she was afraid of Tobias and Susan, she
couldn’t resist the urge to get closer to him.
I don’t know what’s happening to me. I can’t stop comparing David to Tobias ever since I started
working at the Ford Group. Tobias fulfills all the criteria of the man of my dreams. He’s mature,
dominant, wise and wild…
Seeing such an ideal man every day made her becoming more reluctant to get married.
Emily glanced down and realized that the filming was still going on downstairs. Her eyes widened the
moment she spotted Skylar. ”Isn’t that my cousin, Skylar? What is she doing here?”
Tobias became attentive at the mention of Skylar’s name.
Just when Emily was about to walk away and head home, he called out to her. “Hold on. There’s
something I want to ask you.”
The woman was overjoyed. Her eyes were gleaming with hope as she asked, “What is it, Mr. Ford?”
“Is Skylar your cousin?”
Emily was stupefied by his question. Why does he even care about this? She nodded and replied,
“Yeah. She’s on set downstairs right now. She has this unrealistic dream of becoming a superstar since
young. Though I advised her to keep her feet on the ground, she refused to listen to me. Skylar has
always been harebrained and dull-witted, and she never changes her mind unless she is at a dead

Eva gave a long-winded answer, when Tobias had only asked her a simple question.
Susan sneered in her heart. I can’t believe how dumb Eva is. It’s obvious that Mr. Ford has his own
reasons for asking her that. Yet, she babbles exaggeratedly, and every word she says pisses him off.
Sure enough, Tobias’ expression turned grim at once.
“Mr. Ford…” Eva called out gently. Her voice sounded sweeter than ever.
Waving his hand dismissively, he said, “You may go now.”
Looking at his stern expression, the woman was puzzled. Have I said something wrong?
Afterward, Eva left without greeting Skylar, as she felt that they were not that close.
At the filming site, everyone regarded Winnie differently now. Sheldon even asked his assistant to buy
coffee for the entire crew.
After six retakes of a scene, Skylar had finally done filming her part. She reached out to massage her
aching shoulders.
Sitting on a bench, she realized that other than Hannah and herself, every crew on the set had a cup of
Starbucks coffee and a slice of cake.
The fact that she was being ostracized was too obvious to be overlooked.
