Chapter 378 Whose Home
Elspeth noticed him trying to flirt with the girl, and she smacked his forehead. Stop doing that!
"I wasn't." Skylar had never been in a relationship before. She had a lot of suitors, but she liked none of them. Now that a handsome guy was flirting with her, she felt her heart race.
"Stop teasing her. She gets shy easily. Now get ready. We'll be shooting a short later." Have to start things off quickly.
Jethro frowned. "That soon?"
"Yes, and I have the perfect theme?"
"Which is?"
Elspeth slapped her thigh. "The romance between a school bully and the adorable top student. You're the bully, and Skylar's the cute student."
Jethro's frown deepened, and he pointed at himself in confusion. "You want me to be the school bully?"
"It's the perfect role for you. You used to be one."
"Yeah, I used to. Not anymore, alright?" I'm not a bully anymore.
"It doesn't matter. It's the perfect theme." Elspeth would allow no protests, and she even gave him some incentive to make him take the offer. "If you work with her, I'll go home with you tonight."
A smug smile had curled Jethro's lips. "Your place or mine?"
Elspeth smacked his head. "I'm just giving you a chance to drive me home tonight."
Skylar watched them mess around, and then she realized something. I might be the lead role in the short, but I'm an outsider here. She bit her lip, a hint of venom flaring in her eyes. Why? I'm supposed to be loved by all. Why are they ignoring me?
Elspeth was teaching Jethro a lesson, so she didn't notice the change in Skylar's expression at first. When Elspeth noticed Skylar's dark look from the corner of her eye, she realized they might have been messing around a little too much.
"It's getting late. We should go to the shooting location now. I've informed the cameraman." Then, the three of them went to the set.
The cameraman Elspeth called was a man she met abroad. He came back to start a business here, and since he was free at the moment, Elspeth asked him to help out. Herman had been living in another country for years, so the moment he met Elspeth, he gave her a tight hug. "It's been a while. Miss me?"
The hug annoyed Jethro, and he forcibly pulled them apart. "Hey, that's borderline harassment, bucko. Watch yourself," he hissed. Jethro was a mischievous and fierce lad most of the time, and he could be scary if he wanted to.
