In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 353

The journalists soon arrived at the scene. Skylar hadn’t seen the lead actress Katrina ever since they finished filming.

However, seeing her at the promotional event was unavoidable as Katrina was bound to show up for it.

Despite the two of them not wanting to see each other, they had no choice but to greet each other and act like they were friends anyway. They both needed to maintain a positive image in the entertainment industry – a place everyone could be your friend as long as you were popular.

Kate didn’t want Skylar getting too much attention, so the latter she didn’t have a lot of scenes in the show. Her character was designed to be very low profile with her costumes.

Even so, the video of her and Harry in the café spreading all over the internet had resulted in Skylar gaining even more popularity than Katrina.

During the interview session, one of the journalists asked, “Skylar, what is your relationship with Harry?”

“How about you try asking about my relationship status instead?” Kai tried to change the topic for her, but Skylar flashed the journalists a warm and friendly smile as she responded to the question herself.

“Harry and I are just friends. I believe it is perfectly normal for friends to meet up for a cup of coffee.”

She wanted to clear her name completely; she wasn’t going to gain any more popularity out of their rumors.

“Who is the woman in the video? Is she Harry’s ex-girlfriend?”

The journalist pressed on, refusing to let her off easily as it was her first time addressing the issue directly.

Skylar shook her head and replied, “I don’t know her, so I’m not too sure about that. Maybe she’s an obsessive fan of his?”

That was the only logical explanation she could come up with as it was perfectly common for obsessive fans to do such a thing.

I’ve witnessed some of Harry’s fans going as far as setting up camp near the film set for days on end, and that’s mild in comparison to the crazier things they’ve done. The more extreme cases include disguising themselves as cleaners at the hotel Harry stayed in just so they could go through his trash. According to the filming crew, they even stole his used toilet paper! Why would anybody do that? Do they find the poop of celebrities good or something? Honestly, I don’t even know what makes Harry so attractive to them… I fangirl over my idols too, but I wouldn’t go that far!

Although Katrina was the lead actress of the show, the journalists barely put any effort into her interviews. It was as if they wanted to end her session as quickly as possible.

Things had been rather quiet for Katrina as she had no rumors nor scandals going on. The lie she had fed the journalists about her intimate relationship with Tobias hadn’t been enough to fool them.

Everyone could tell that she was making it all up in hopes of boosting her popularity through the use of his fame.

Despite his reluctance, Kai had no choice but to do as told.

As the event came to an end, Skylar looked into the crowd and saw Kai’s name on most of the signs instead of hers or Katrina’s.

Thank you, those of you who actually came for me! She thought to herself while casting a grateful look at the small group of fans with her name on their signs.

Skylar had originally planned on catching the overnight flight home, but Kate stopped her and asked, “Why are you in such a hurry to head back? Is there someone waiting for you?”

She’s right… Even if I head back to that cold and empty house tonight, I’d still only arrive in the wee hours of the morning anyway…

With that in mind, Skylar canceled her flight and checked in at the hotel that the filming crew had booked them.

It was a five-star hotel with incredibly luxurious decor and the fragrant scent of perfume everywhere.

After stepping out of the shower, Skylar remembered that she had yet to reply Tobias’ message that had come in when she boarded the flight.

She tried giving him a call and even sent him a text message asking if he was there, but she received no response whatsoever.

An image of him being very busy with his work popped into her head, and she put her phone down as she decided not to waste her time waiting for him.

There was a sudden knock on the door, and she opened it thinking it was Kate returning from her spa session downstairs. However, Kai was the one who greeted her at the door.

Noticing the two bottles of wine in his hand, Skylar was about to close the door on him, but he was quicker and squeezed through before she could do so.
