Chapter 435


    Kate bolted over to Skr the moment she saw her reappear on set. “What on earth happened to you?


    We are going to start filming soon, and you haven’t even changed! How could you have vanished just


    like that? Where did you and Largo go?” Kate demanded.


    Skr frowned. “How did you know that I was with Largo?”


    Kate drew in a deep breath sharply, then exhaled, trying to contain her annoyance.” Avery was telling


    everyone that she couldn’t find Largo and came to harass us, believing that you were with him. She told


    everyone that Largo was her boyfriend too, so everyone thinks that Largo has been cheating on Avery


    with you.”


    Skr snorted derisively. “Let her tell all the lies that she wants. She has everything to lose. Anyway,


    there’ll be someone to pick up the pieces for her. Largo cares too much about his image to allow Avery to


    run wild with her delusions. He definitely won’t let this fly. We can sit back and wait for them to break up


    now.”


    Kate was all too familiar with Largo’s ways of preserving his reputation. When he had burst out onto the


    acting scene, his fans had eagerly matchmade him with various female co-stars and celebrities. These


    pieces of gossip, however, were always rigorously denied and suppressed by Largo’s publicity team.


    Skr quickly donned the outfit set aside by the film crew for her next scene. The gown cost an


    extravagant sum of money and its intricate designs were entirely embroidered by hand. Lightly


    shimmering with every move that Skr made, the gown looked fit for royalty.


    Its measurements, on the other hand, were slightly on the small side. Even with Skr sucking in her


    stomach, the gown would still be a little tight.


    As Skr was having the finishing touches done to her gown, the door flew open and Avery stormed in


    like a hurricane, blustering in her rage.


    Kate jumped in fright at the abruptness of Avery’s entrance. In a simr fashion, Hannah, who was


    squatting next to Skr arranging the hem of her gown, staggered and almost fell.

    Avery was clutching her phone so hard that her knuckles had turned white. Her eyes zing, Avery


    bellowed, “Why didn’t Largo answer any of my calls? You’re just as unscrupulous as your mother! You


    must have inherited her cheating nature.”


    Avery’s deliberate insult to Miranda infuriated Skr immensely. It was an unjust usation, given that


    all Miranda had done was to get her man back rightfully after he had been snatched away from her.


    Skr was seething but quickly regained herposure. She put on her violet earrings without deigning


    to even nce at Avery’s angry face.


    “Tell me, who’s going after your man? You came here looking for him, didn’t you? Where is he, then?”


    Skr demanded.


    Avery was so vexed by Skr’s reply that she began quivering with rage. “You still haven’t gotten over


    Jeremy, have you? You’re still ming me for him breaking up with you! Aren’t you trying to seduce


    Largo to get back at me?”


    Skr slowly turned to face Avery. Her memory of Jeremy seemed so vague like he was someone she


    had met in a previous life. There was no way Skr would remember such a person if Avery did not


    bring his name up.


    Ironically, the mention of Jeremy only served to as a reminder to Skr on how she hadpletely


    gotten over him. Instead of hanging on to him, Skr realized that she had thought of Jeremy for a very


    long time.


    Skr strode over to Avery, then said mockingly, “Thanks for the reminder. I’d forgotten all about that


    piece of trash. I’m sorry, I didn’t know that you and Largo were even in a serious rtionship. I was so


    caught up with his confession to me that I’d forgotten to ask.”


    Avery stood rooted to the spot. Didn’t Largo say just the night before that he’d treat me well? She’d even


    persistently probed him as to when she could meet his family and announce their rtionship.


    It was unfathomable to Avery how Largo could make a headlong dash over to Skr and profess his


    feelings for her the very next day. There was nothing in Avery’s life that Skr would not rob her of—first


    the lead role, then her boyfriend


    Skr added provocatively, “I told him that there was no way he could get me to take my sister’s


    happiness away from her! Even though we aren’t usually on good terms, I wouldn’t go to such an extent


    to hurt you, at least for now.”
