Hannah signed the notice on behalf of Skylar, yet she didn’t want to take responsibility for the latter. Therefore, Hannah fished out Skylar’s phone from her bag.
She scrolled through the contact list and found a contact labeled “Mom”. Without hesitation, she called the number.
Right then, Miranda was seated in a well-decorated restaurant with a splendid environment. She looked elegant and graceful. Her face was flushing red as she gazed at her old flame affectionately. It had been a long time since she last met the man.
In contrast to Miranda’s passion, Thomas didn’t show any excitement about their rendezvous. Instead, he pursed his lips tightly and had a serious look on his face.
“Come and live with us, Thomas. You’re running out of time. You have to move in by this month.” Miranda swirled the glass of wine gently while looking at the garnet red liquid casually.
Hearing her words, Thomas was in a tight spot. “I’m not ready to talk to Irene about it. She’ll definitely make a fuss. Besides, my children won’t accept it either. Let’s take some time and think it through, shall we?” he carefully asked.
Miranda drank up her wine and her eyes turned grim. “Don’t you forget what you had done! I was made your scapegoat and I’d suffered in jail for so many years. You have to pay the price!” she scowled.
Hannah tried to reach Miranda, yet the latter didn’t pick up her calls. Suddenly, Hannah thought of Tobias, but she was unsure whether he would come over for Skylar.
Hannah had little experience of being an assistant, but she was no stranger to how things worked between a female star and a sponsor. The former secured the sources whereas the latter satisfied his sexual desires. They were merely getting what they needed from each other.
Hannah called up Skylar’s manager, Kate. Upon receiving her call, Kate rushed to the hospital. She was already in the hot water because of the tight filming schedule before she was informed about Skylar’s situation. However, she didn’t blame Skylar as it was something uncontrollable.
