Chapter 592 Waiting To Devour Her
All Skylar wanted was to finish the shoot as soon as possible. To her, that particular movie had achieved its fullest potential and it could no longer bring her greater value. In fact, she felt that her popularity was being taken advantage of. If Kate keeps doing this, I will have to come up with something.
She continued to demonstrate a steady performance for the subsequent scenes. She had a superbly strong foundation in communicating her acting lines clearly. Even the boom operator enjoyed listening to her.
Had it not been for Ingrid’s terrible acting, the director would not have wasted the entire afternoon on just a few simple scenes.
Hannah had Skylar’s phone with her and it kept on ringing. During break, she handed the phone to Skylar. “Mr. Ford has been looking for you. He’s made more than ten calls.”
Skylar was shocked. Did Tobias get the wrong number? Usually, he’ll only make one more call if he couldn’t get me the first time. He’s never made a series of calls.
Worried that something might have happened, she called back.
When the line was connected, Tobias grumbled, “Why didn’t you answer my calls?”
Skylar explained, “I was filming and the phone was with Hannah. I just noticed your missed calls. What’s wrong? Is there something urgent?”
Tobias requested for her to make a trip to the Central Hospital, where Thomas was hospitalized.
Stunned, many questions crossed her mind. Why is he at the hospital? How did Tobias find out about this? Did the Joneses contact Tobias?
Reluctantly, Skylar went. She once swore that she would never shed a tear even if Thomas died. Therefore, she was rather calm upon hearing the news.
Hayden approached them and held Irene while staring daggers at Skylar.
Suddenly, Skylar became the main target of accusations and criticisms amongst the Joneses. Yet, she had not the slightest clue what was going on.
She was completely baffled at the condemnations received. What gives? Why am I responsible for whatever that’s happened to Thomas?
When the crowd retreated, Tobias enlightened her, “After your father admitted to committing adultery as well as abandoning his wife and child, the paparazzi have been invading into his privacy to discover more juicy news. Bearing a bad name, he suffered from tremendous psychological pressure and drank pesticide to end his life. They’re trying to rescue him now.”
Pursing her lips, she fell silent. She had never expected Thomas to be so feeble and ending up committing suicide.
It was a rare occasion for Skylar to meet all of the Jones family. However, they sharp, unfriendly gazes were fixated on her, as if they were ready to devour her.
