Skylar was shocked to see Cassidy acting like that, she considered apologizing as Cassidy really looked like she had lost her mind compared to how she was moments ago.
Eventually, Cassidy’s hands dropped, and she pointed at Tobias. “What do you people want from me! Is death my only way out! Please don’t come looking for me! Please! I have already quit!”
“Your life’s not worth it.” Tobias narrowed his eyes, cold and piercing. “No one’s forcing you to do anything. You’re the one who can’t get over it.”
From what he said, Skylar assumed that Tobias had seen Cassidy’s naked body before this. Did he sleep with Cassidy?
On the other hand, Sandra also recognized Tobias because she saw him at a tendering event. Once was enough to leave a vivid impression.
With Tobias’ appearance, a lot of questions Sandra had on her mind finally made sense. How a newcomer like Skylar could snatch Avery’s role from her and how quickly she gained fame.
It’s all because she has him backing her up!
Sandra instantly realized that she should restart the recording, so her hand slowly shifted towards her purse. Nevertheless, Skylar had sharp eyes, as she spotted her movement, and approached her. “Ms. Morrison, can I take a look at your purse? You’ve been fiddling with it ever since you arrived.” She was quiet but exuded immense pressure.
Sandra felt goosebumps from hearing that. “This is my belongings. You have no right to go through it.”
Skylar snickered, proceeding to take off her ring and tossed it on her bed. “Oh my. I think I lost my ring. Where could it be? Maybe I should call the police. With only the four of us here, do you think they will search through that purse of yours?”
Just as Sandra was hesitating, Skylar seized the opportunity and took her purse away from her. A mini recorder!
