“Skylar is studying at the Southwood Film Academy,” Miranda told them in support of Skylar. “You all know where that is right? A lot of celebrities graduated from that school. I’m hoping that she’d become really famous in the future. She’s my only insurance plan after all.”
Eva sneered. “So many people that came out of that school would end up just being extras or playing insignificant roles. Those famous celebrities spent a lot of money to get to where they are. Where do you get that money from? There was Grandma’s retirement fund in the past. What about now?”
Eva started being the wet blanket again, clearly not wanting Skylar to get any attention.
Skylar raised an eyebrow in response and smiled. “I just finish filming a new movie by Daryl Williams.”
“Oh?” Eva looked at her suspiciously. “That’s a famous director. What role did you play?”
“The second female lead. There were quite a lot of scenes.”
With that, Eva went silent. She had to admit that Skylar had an exquisite looking face. There are abundance of beautiful faces in the industry though. For a nameless actress like you to gain popularity would be a huge joke.
After a while, Eva cleared her throat and made an announcement. “Everyone, I’m getting married soon. Mum, Dad, David’s parents would like both families to meet before that. They’ve already prepared a house that’s more than two thousand square feet for us.”
“Yeah,” David chimed in. “Mr. and Mrs. Watts, my mother really liked Eva so the house was prepared well in advance. It’s located in the city so it’s more convenient for Eva to travel to work.”
All the relatives there were shocked by the announcement. Their jaws dropped even further when they heard about the house in the city.
“Eva’s really amazing! Even your husband is impressive. Your in-laws seem nice too! Have you secured a job yet?” One of the aunts said flatteringly.
“It’s confirmed,” Eva declared proudly. “The human resource department already sent me an offer. I’m going to work in the Ford Group.”
