At that moment, Skylar gave Joe a call.
“Mr. Martin,” she began, “as long as we’re married, I’m happy to give you a daily head massage to improve your sleep. But I need a favor in return.”
She knew the massages had a significant impact on his sleep quality.
“What favor? Shoot,” Joe replied, accepting his coffee from Paul.
He was playing golf with his friends today. It was break time when she called him. contact, so this came as quite a shock to him.
I rarely i
In fact, Joe had been contemplating how to ask her for daily massages. Her call, mentioning the massages herself, saved him the trouble.
“Charles is currently shooting a film, and Samuel is also on it. We had a conflict today. Given Samuel’s despicable nature, he’d definitely…”
Joe grasped the situation immediately. “Alright, I’ll handle it.”
“Thank you.”
After ending the call, Joe issued instructions to Paul. Paul then went to a secluded area and made two phone calls
Meanwhile, Joe’s gaze drifted toward Jeremy, who was teaching Annabelle how to play golf not far away.
“Mr. Hughes and his secretary seem to have a rather ‘special‘ relationship, Paul remarked quietly after. returning from making the calls, glancing in their direction.
Annabelle stamped her foot coquettishly. “Mr, Hughes, I’m so clumsy.”
Jeremy held onto Annabelle’s hand. They were really close. His eyes showed tenderness when he said, ” Try again a few times. I’ll teach you until you get it.”
“With you as my instructor, Mr. Hughes, I’ll work hard to learn even if I’m slow. I wouldn’t want to disappoint you.” Annabelle took a deep breath and puffed out her cheeks, making her look cuter.
Annabelle was not only adorable; her figure was also undeniably sexy.
A flicker of curiosity crossed Paul’s mind. Didn’t Jeremy dote on his childhood sweetheart–his wife? Why was his relationship with his secretary becoming ambiguous?
Looking at the other CEOs nearby, it seemed like they were accustomed to it. They probably knew about Jeremy and Annabelle’s relationship earlier on.
Joe only glanced for a moment before retracting his gaze. He looked at the WhatsApp message Skylar sent. It was a thank you emoji and a message saying she would add two more dishes to his dinner tomorrow. A warmth spread through him as he contemplated the upcoming feast.

Meanwhile, the assistant director accepted 20,000 dollars from Samuel.
Samuel went to change his clothes.
He stared at the villa across from him with a sense of unease. He was the male lead, yet he had to live in the same apartment shared with other crew members.
The building, though not dirty, was clearly intended for temporary staff who cleaned up the villa. While the rooms were well–equipped, they certainly weren’t on par with a five–star hotel.
Several villas stood across from him, but he heard that they were reserved for high–profile guests. They were strictly off–limits to most people.
He was the male lead, yet he couldn’t even stay in the villa. However, the director managed to stay there.
After stewing for a while, he donned his costume and headed out for his next scene. Charles didn’t have many scenes. As the fourth male lead, his role was relatively minor.
