Skylar didn’t return to the campus. Instead, she headed over to the place where they would have their
dinner together. On her way to the eatery, she felt uncomfortable due to her sore throat.
After she reached the place, she walked into the private dining suite and noticed everyone had already
arrived.
The only available seat was right next to Lydia. Skylar had no choice but to brace herself and took a
seat next to Lydia.
When Lydia saw Skylar, she recalled the incident that had occurred the other day—the most capable
and exceptional CEO of Ford Group showed up at the hotel by Skylar’s side in the middle of the night.
Shailene’s father was terminated a few days later while most of the users on the forum were banished.
Lydia was clueless about the identity of Skylar’s backing—she was afraid Skylar was affiliated with
some mysterious, powerful figures.
Lately, she heard the word of a geek that showed up by Skylar’s side, insisting on getting married to
her.
She decided to stay away from Skylar because she didn’t want to get herself involved in any nasty
situation due to the complicated background of Skylar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Skylar took a seat, she noticed she had received several text messages from Jackson.
Hey, I’ll drop by and pick you up. Don’t drink more than you should if you can’t hold your drink.
How many males and females are there?
Why aren’t you replying to my message? Is it because of the limited signals?
Are you angry?
I have been keeping something to myself all this while because I couldn’t bring myself to talk about it
with you. Are you still a virgin, Skylar? Don’t worry! Even if you aren’t, I don’t mind at all!”
Skylar took a deep breath and resisted the urge to smash her phone into pieces.
She had blocked Jackson’s contact number, yet he got himself another contact number and started
annoying her once again.
Did Jackson sign up for a flirting lesson with some love gurus? Is he trying to win me over through text
messages? Is he aware he won’t be achieving his goal?
“Daryl Williams will visit the campus and cast the actress for his latest movie, Yours Truly, that will be
produced soon! I heard countless female celebrities had given the role a try, yet the director had turned
them down because something didn’t feel right.”
As the daughter of a fellow director, Lydia had access to more insider news as compared to her fellow
course mates.
All the while, Skylar placed her cheek on her hand and listened to the gossips. Daryl Williams was a
globally renowned director who was known for being a strict man. She thought she wouldn’t even have
the chance to join the audition for the movie.
The ones who could get cast by Daryl Williams would get a smooth sailing throughout their entire
career in showbiz.
Someone voiced out their opinion and denoted, “I think Avery from the next class matches the
description and criteria that have been listed for the role of the female protagonist since she has such a
gorgeous appearance that most female protagonists require.”
Skylar felt uncomfortable whenever she heard of Avery because she knew her sister was but a
pretentious woman.
Although Avery had always shown up in front of others with the image of a kind and easy-going
woman, she was the complete opposite when no one was around her.
Lindsey looked in the direction of Skylar and rebuked, “I think Skylar looks better than Avery!”
No one was aware of Avery and Skylar’s relationship—none of them managed to rule out the possibility
of them being half-siblings.
Skylar had always been the diva amongst the male in their class.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe males enjoyed being around the iconic figure of the class, but none of them had any intention of
getting into a relationship with Skylar due to her bad reputation. None of them would risk their
reputation to satisfy their lust.
Skylar replied with a smirk, “Oh! I don’t think I’m a match for Avery in terms of look!”
Usually, her course mates would start ridiculing her, but since Lydia didn’t take the lead, none of them
dared pick on Skylar.
Throughout the meal, Skylar didn’t really savor the dishes that were served because her course mates
had finished the delicacies before she could get any of them.
“Skylar, are you getting married soon?” Starling poked her nose into Skylar’s business, grinning
because she couldn’t suppress her joy as she had gotten her hands on such shocking news.
Skylar shook her head with a confused look and asked in return, “Huh? What are you talking about? I
have never heard of such an incident! I don’t think I’ll be getting married anytime soon since I’m merely
twenty-year-old.”
Starling cast a skeptical gaze at Skylar because she could vividly recall the conversation she heard
when she was at the entrance of the dormitory the other day.
In fact, she couldn’t forget the look of the odd-looking young man that had intimidated her. Despite
being a young man, he was almost completely bald and had a set of old-fashioned outfits on.
“Are you trying to lie to me? I have seen your fiancé! There’s nothing wrong with getting married young
since you have reached the legal age to get married.”
