Chapter 525
No wonder Skylar made it into Alexander’s team. She really had some genuine skills. She was amazing at such a young age.
Skylar shook her head modestly. “It was just a small effort, Mr. Cohen. No need to fuss over it.”
“No, no! You’ve done me a huge favor! Skye, let me add your WhatsApp contact first. Next time, I insist on paying you for your services.” Brigham hurriedly requested Skylar’s contact.
Onlookers, including Charles and a few crew members, were stunned. It was their first time seeing Brigham actively adding someone on WhatsApp.
Moreover, his attitude was charming.
Usually, it was others seeking Brigham’s favor. However, the situation appeared to be reversed.
Indeed, it almost felt like Brigham was currying favor with Charles‘ sister.
In fact, this young woman was even prettier than the female lead in their film, However, Brigham’s attitude toward her was purely respectful. It was as if Skylar was a big shot.
Someone whispered to Charles, “What’s up with your sister?”
Charles first shook his head, then said, “My sister just helped Mr. Cohen appraise a painting.”
“Damn! What does your sister do? She’s so impressive!”
“She’s an antique restorer. She works in Mr. Gardner Senior’s team.” Charles straightened his posture. His tone was unusually calm. It was as if this was just a very ordinary little thing.
No one knew how proud Charles was to witness Skylar showcasing her talents firsthand. It was a feeling akin to his family’s pride in her becoming a grown–up.
He wondered if anyone else had felt this way. He really wanted to share this with Steven.

noticed him.
His gaze toward Skylar was cold. When he gazed toward Charles, it was filled with jealousy.
Samuel clenched his jaw tightly. His heart brimmed with intense envy.
Their family was almost at the bottom in Jipsburg City, and they might even have to slink back to Liberty County in disgrace.
Today, though Samuel was unwilling, he came out and tried his luck.
Previously, he had collaborated with Brigham on several films and had hoped
to secure a role for him. This was a chance for a comeback.
Then, Samuel happened to see Skylar and Charles. Brigham was actually trying to please Skylar.
Now, Charles was cast as the second male lead in this film. But earlier, Samuel was relegated to an extra role. He earned only a few dollars a day for that kind
of role.

Samuel was unwilling. Samuel’s eyes were full of gloom as he stared fixedly at Skylar.
Skylar was so capable. Moreover, she had support from Joe and Alexander, so she must have a way to help him. It was fortunate that he had this opportunity,
and he was determined to seize it.
