Chapter 146


    Luxe was the biggest luxury shopping mall in the entire country. There were rumors that Tobias had built


    it for Tanya, his fiancée, so she could shop and dine like a queen whenever she wanted to. This was


    every woman’s dream—many of them envied Tanya for her good fortune, sighing that she must’ve saved


    the entire universe in her past life.


    Unfortunately, there would never be a ce for Skr in their privileged lives.


    A momentter, she threw herself onto the bed and turned her phone off. She didn’t wish to discuss such


    heavy topics with Penelope in the middle of the night—they would only end up specting endlessly.


    Jeremy was snoring very loudly. Skr tossed and turned in the lower bunk, unable to fall asleep. She


    kicked his bunk in frustration. However, Jeremy, who was sleeping like a dead log, did not feel a thing.


    Skr couldn’t help but recall when Jeremy was lying in the hospital bed like an ill cat. He didn’t even


    have the energy to breathe. In fact, he reminded her of anguishing flower that had been stripped of its


    petals and left to die in the wind.


    The loud snores then were proof that he was as healthy as a horse. She traded her body for Jeremy’s


    health! This was a stain on her existence that she would never be able to erase for the rest of her life.


    That afternoon, the train finally pulled into N Province. She didn’t sleep a wink throughout the entire


    night, pulling an all-nighter for the first time in her life. On the other hand, Jeremy slept very well. He


    woke up just as they were supposed to get off the train.


    Jeremy followed after Skr as they made their way out of the train station. The distance between them


    was neither close nor far.


    ording to the map, there was still a long way to their destination. The production team didn’t send a


    car over to pick them up. Evidently, they regarded their actors with little respect.


    Jeremy cursed under his breath, “They couldn’t even be bothered to send a sedan over. We have to pay


    for the transportation fees by ourselves! What sort of treatment is this?”


    Skr concurred with Jeremy, thinking that the crew disrespected them. However, she wanted to


    distinguish herself from Jeremy, not wanting to be under the same grading as him.


    She managed to hail a taxi by the side of the road. The moment the car door swung open, Jeremy shot


    inside without even sparing her a nce and shut the door after him.


    Skr was furious. “What do you think you’re doing? I was the one who hailed this cab!”


    Jeremy rolled down the window. “Well, I got in first. Get in! Who knows when is the next taxiing? We


    can share the taxi fare.”


    Skr looked up at the sky in frustration. Dear God, what did I do to deserve this!


    Don’t make Jeremy appear in front of me ever again.


    Who would even bother splitting the taxi fare! Jeremy was one of the most miserly people she had ever


    met.


    Tobias was right! How pathetic of me to fall for a thrash like Jeremy!


    Skr sat in the seat next to the driver—where the payor would usually sit.


    When they arrived at the taxi terminal, Skr swiped her card on the card reader while Jeremy got out of


    the car.


    Skr went to the boot of the car and took out her luggage. She called out to Jeremy and reminded him,


    “The cab fare costs twenty-eight. Please transfer me your share, thanks.”


    Jeremy looked sulkily at her. “I can’t believe you’re really asking me for it! No matter how you look at it,


    we’ve been lovers for such a long time.”


    A smile appeared on Skr’s delicate face. “If I can even put a number to it, you owe me more than your


    share of cab fare. Stop spouting rubbish and pay up right now.”


    Jeremy transferred the money over to her, looking extremely reluctant. His gaze fell on her luggage,


    which had a Louis Vuitton logo emzoned on it.

    “Where did you even get that luggage? I can’t believe you’re dragging around a fake branded item when


    you aren’t even famous yet. Look how vain and shallow you are.”


    Skr clenched her fists, feeling a sudden urge to p Jeremy across the face. She calmed herself


    down and smiled broadly at him. “It was a gift from my boyfriend!”


    A vein throbbed in Jeremy’s neck. How could she have the money for a luxurious suitcase if she could


    barely afford the ne ticket? It is all very suspicious.


    The filming site was in the countryside—the production crew had selected the location half a year ago.


    During the entire way there, Jeremyined about the producer’s decision to film in such a deserted


    area.


    Although he was whining non-stop, he was actually feeling overjoyed. He had been stewing in a state of


    excitement these past few days.


    Acting in a movie produced by Daryl Williams was a straight ticket to stardom.


    The bus shook all the way to the shooting location, finally arriving at Knoxville Town. The conditions in


    this shanty town were worse than her expectations.
