Chapter 823
When Skylar arrived on the set, a scene had just ended. Austin had transitioned from his role as a cold-hearted assassin back to his real self and then walked over to Natalie.
As he took the thermal flask from her, his eyes softened with a gentle, warm smile.
Skylar witnessed this scene perfectly.
"Mr. Powell, your performance was amazing! I was really scared," Natalie said. Her eyes sparkled with admiration for Austin.
She almost saw Austin act every day. The scene of awe from the live performances was so overwhelming that even now, she was still amazed.
Watching Austin act always felt like stepping into the scene as if he were truly the character.
Austin truly lived up to her idol status.
Seeing Natalie's adoration, Austin smiled with a hint of affection. "Were you really scared? The next scene is a fight between Charles and me. We'll both end up battered and the scene will be quite gory. You can go back to the hotel to rest and come back in two hours."
"Hehe, I'm not that easily frightened. I can't leave my post," Natalie replied with a laugh.
As they chatted, they didn't notice Skylar's presence.
Skylar looked at Austin with a significant gaze.
It was Charles's words that made both of them turn their attention. "Skye, you're here."
"Skylar, did you just arrive? You missed Mr. Powell's incredible performance," Natalie exclaimed. She rushed over to Skylar and lavishly praised Austin.
Her tone was filled with admiration for her idol.
Austin's eyes showed a bit more indulgence when he heard that.
Skylar responded with a smile, "It's a pity I missed it, but I can watch the next scene."
"Maybe you should skip it. The next scene is quite intense, you might be scared. Seeing it in person is different from seeing it on screen. Why don't you two take a walk nearby instead?" Charles quickly intervened.
In a while, he would be covered in fake blood and various injuries. He didn't want to frighten Skylar.
It was a rare chance for Skylar to visit him on set. If she ended up crying from fear, Steven would definitely be angry with him.
Skylar understood Charles's concern. "Charles, I'm not that easily scared."
They had been mischievous together since they were kids and had done their fair share of trouble.
Charles chuckled and said, "Alright then. If you're scared, just leave quickly."
After a few more words, Charles and Austin went to get their makeup done while Skylar and Natalie chatted nearby.
"Did Charlene come to see you?" Natalie asked.
"You knew?"
Natalie nodded. "She came to ask me first. Recently, she heard about your work from some classmates and was worried it might be rumors, so she came to inquire. How is it? Is her family heirloom valuable think they want to sell it." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Skylar's expression grew serious. "What she showed me wasn't her family heirloom. It's likely something they found or acquired through dubious means. It's a negative item." Content belongs to NovelDrama.OrgNôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
"What?" Natalie's eyes widened.
From what happened with Jeremy, she was aware of the existence of such negative items and the impact they could have. Even if she didn't understand, Skylar's serious expression made it clear that the situation was severe. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"After I explained the situation, she didn't believe it and just left."
Natalie asked in shock, "What if she sells the item? Will that prevent her from getting into trouble?"
"It won't be so easy to sell," Skylar replied.
Natalie frowned and said, "Should I ask Charlene?"
She sent a message to Charlene, but it only showed one gray check mark.
"She blocked me!" Natalie exclaimed.
Skylar tried to send her a message on WhatsApp but then noticed that she had blocked her as well. "She blocked me too."
Natalie couldn't believe it. "Is Charlene out of her mind? Even if it's not her own item, she wants to keep it? Especially since it's a negative item." Skylar only frowned.
Suddenly, Skylar recalled a scene she had seen at the café and asked, "Have you been in touch with Jeremy recently?"
