Skylar understood what Kai was insinuating. It was as if his pride as a man had been trampled upon.
Skylar didn’t understand why this even bothered him. Perhaps in his eyes, she was just a materialistic woman.
Skylar adjusted her collar. “I can’t accept the gift as it is too expensive. I’m just borrowing it for the time being. Once the shooting is done, I’ll return it in its original condition.”
Kai felt his heart tied up in knots. Given how rare it was for Tobias to treat a woman so well, Kai was worried that Skylar would be further entrapped by him.
Although he only knew Skylar for a short while, he felt the sudden urge to protect her when he saw her spacing out and looking lonely at times.
Suddenly, Kate entered anxiously looking for Skylar. She informed her that the director had called out her name a couple of times and couldn’t find her.
When Kai saw Kate, he recognized her right away.
He guessed only a newbie like Skylar wasn’t aware of how capable Kate was.
As an extremely experienced agent within the entertainment industry, Kate wouldn’t just manage anybody. As she had a wide network of contacts in showbiz, she groomed many famous celebrities throughout the years.
Any actor or actress would die to have Kate manage them. And now, Tobias had assigned her to help Skylar.
Furthermore, it was likely that Tobias was very influential as Kate was taking a break over the last two to three years. She had returned to work just for Skylar.
Meanwhile, Skylar quickly followed Kate out and ran towards the film site.
She was supposed to have a dialogue with Kai but he only came out from the dressing room after a long time.
Before filming started, Skylar tried her best to familiarize herself with the lines. In this scene, she was supposed to confess her feelings to the male lead played by Kai.
The script required some physical contact. She was to hug Kai by his waist and stood on her toes to kiss him.
Meanwhile, Kai was already dressed in a red tank top and an army green jacket. Although it was a cheesy combination, he managed to pull off the look and was absolutely dashing in it.
