In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 568

During the call, Sharon shrieked, “Are you helping us or not? If not, can’t you just tell us directly?”

Skylar had to move her phone away from her ear.

She felt that she should take Tobias’ advice as this was clearly a bottomless pit.

Meanwhile, Kate could sense that Skylar was distracted. After all, Skylar didn’t notice her presence despite standing behind her for a long time.

All Skylar did was stare blankly into space.

“Have you familiarized yourself with the script of Love In 1978? The director is demanding an answer from us about the contract.”

Given that she was lost in thought, Skylar was given a fright when she heard Kate’s voice. Holding her hand over her heart, she turned around to face Kate.

As Kate had been busy with Amelia’s matters recently, Skylar found it difficult to meet her. Every time she called, Kate would reply that she was busy and end the call abruptly.

Hence, Skylar was upset with Kate’s half-hearted attitude toward her. By focusing on Amelia, she felt that Kate had neglected her. Although Kat couldn’t be everywhere at once, Skylar still expected her to carry out her basic duties well.

Biting her lip, Skylar shook her head. “I don’t feel like accepting the role. The plot just isn’t engaging enough. Given that they are rushing to complete the movie in time for the holiday season, it would likely be a flop at the box office. I do not want such a stigma on me in my very first movie as the lead.”

Kate didn’t argue as Skylar was right about the script. It wasn’t as good as Pretty Detective in terms of theme and plot. Furthermore, the director was rushing to complete it before the holidays.

However, her intention was to get Skylar a piece of the holiday film market.

Disappointed, Kate furrowed her eyebrows. “I feel that the scripts that suit you the most now are low-budget movies like this. It’s easier for you to be a dark horse given the low expectations. Besides, you can’t say that it’s a definite flop yet.”

Skylar could sense Kate’s displeasure. If she continued to be picky, she would likely end up with no work before the holidays.

Given how obvious Kate had made it, Skylar decided to take a gamble. Perhaps, she could still use her connections to get the screenwriter to make some amendments.

Having gone through the script, she found it to be boring. Even the jokes didn’t sound funny.
