“Thanks. It’s not a big deal. in fact, I’m as fit as a butcher’s dog,” Skylar joked, realizing that it sounded

funnier in her head.

Largo said gently, “That’s great. I hope you don’t get traumatized by this. It’s completely normal to get

injured on set. Acting itself is a high-risk profession, but there’s nothing to complain about, to be

honest. After all, we get paid so much. That’s why we have to do our best to make sure we are worth

the money.”

At that, Skylar wondered how much Largo was paid. After some mental calculation, she surmised that

the figure on his paycheck probably had exceeded hers by a few zeroes.

When Largo left to get changed, the faint smile on Skylar’s face vanished. If it wasn’t for the sake of

forming connections, she hated going out of her way to smile.

Largo stood tall in a white robe that billowed around him. The look in his eyes was not of this world, and

an aura of immortality encompassed him.

Skylar swooned slightly. Whoever styled him is a genius! Be it the makeup and clothing, everything

deserved praise.

Avery was playing the role of a maid working for the male lead, Titus Lancaster. She had followed him

since she was a child, and endured the torment of unrequited love.

The appearance of the female lead, Saoirse Hafford, made her go crazy with jealousy because of how

much Titus favored her. Hence, she plotted against Saoirse every step of the way, all so that Titus

would come to resent her.

Skylar felt that Avery was the perfect person to play such a b*tchy character.

Due to her status as a maid, the character played by Avery, Yaneth Mandell, did not look outstanding

both in terms of makeup and clothing.

Skylar was in a very good frame of mind. After Josiah gave her a tongue-lashing the previous day, she

paid special attention to her expressions and demeanor. This time, she was the one carrying the sword

and not the other way around.

When Josiah shouted “action”, Skylar got into character effortlessly. As the camera moved with her,

there wasn’t a single flaw in sight.

Avery, on the other hand, messed up several times. Thus, Skylar had no choice but to cooperate,

reshooting the scenes with her.

Enraged, Josiah directed his anger at Avery this time. “Are you serious? You only have a few lines. Is it

that hard to say them properly?”

Avery was scratching her left arm vehemently, the action drawing blood.

“Director, my arm is really itchy,” she cried out in anguish.

Right then, Skylar frowned and whispered into Avery’s ear, “You know, my costume was torn open

slightly in the back. Before that, it was stained with some mango powder. If I remember correctly, you’re

allergic to mangoes.”

Avery’s expression froze and she gritted out, “What the hell is your problem, Skylar? Why are you

targeting me at every turn? You obviously know that I’m allergic to mangoes. Yet, you did this?”

Skylar smiled. “I’m merely reminding you to keep your hands off what doesn’t belong to you.”

Avery completely lost it, shouting for her assistant to bring her some Cetirizine, but not before hissing,

“Don’t go too far. Everything you have now won’t stay yours for long.”

Avery was so angry she slapped the thermos cup her assistant brought for her to the ground.

“Idiot. Did I say wanted water?”

Jane jumped in fright, quickly bowing her head to apologize, “I’m sorry. I should’ve asked you if you

were thirsty first.”

Avery was filled with regret and frustration. I should’ve asked Dad to burn bridges with Skylar back

then. A b*tch like her shouldn’t be allowed to live.

She glared at Jane who was discreetly wiping her tears away. “What the hell are you crying for? You’re

acting like I committed a crime against you. Ugh, look at you. You’re oozing with bad energy. Shoo!

Stay away as far from me as possible!”

Hannah had witnessed this entire scene. Later on, both Skylar and she felt angry on behalf of Jane.

Hannah even marveled about how lucky she was to meet such a good boss who was unbelievably

gentle and never once lost her temper at her.
