Sheila curled her lips into a mocking smile. "I know my place. Just because he's investing in a movie for me doesn't mean I can do everything I want. If I challenge his limit, he'll someday take back everything he's given me."
It was like a hard punch directly at Vicky's heart.
'That's right. Tyler is a cool and heartless man. He'd make a person feel like he's the world when he wants to be nice to that person, but everything can disappear into thin air once they infuriate him,' Vicky thought.
It was the same for Sheila and her.
Feeling suffocated, Vicky silently walked away.
Sheila merely watched as she leave without intending to stop her.
…
The sky was already dark when Vicky was out of Neon Club. By then, she realized she had forgotten to say goodbye to Director Lumber, but she figured it did not matter much at this point. As Sheila's old acquaintance was mighty enough for the producer to stop harassing her, no one else would probably have the audacity to say anything else.
She was trying to look for Cece, and she began fearing for the worst when the woman in question called her.
"Vicky, are you out? I'm already on my way back home."
Vicky was taken aback by this. "Did anything happen?"
Cece explained in a hurry, "No, but…"
Before Cece could continue, a black car stopped beside Vicky. The window was wound down to show a handsome, indifferent face.
"Get in the car." His voice was cold like the night breeze.
