Chapter 527
A figure suddenly appeared before them as they turned a corner in the corridor, and Tobias wasn’t able
to step out of the way in time. As a result, he ended up with a huge cup of coffee being spilled all over his
suit.
The air was instantly filled with the fragrant aroma of the coffee, and both of them stared wide-eyed at
the woman before them.
As she was frantically retrieving some paper towels from her handbag, Skylar recognized her as Molly
Zimmer, a trainee at the company who was about the same age as her.
Molly was her neighbor during her childhood days. Her dad started up a hotel after resigning from his
factory job, and they moved out of the old house when he expanded his business.
That wealth was the main reason she could afford to become a trainee at the company as the
registration fee and uniform cost a bomb.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t see where I was going… This suit must be really expensive, right? I’ll pay for the
cleaning!” Molly mumbled apologetically and tried to wipe the coffee off him.
Tobias frowned at the sight of his sleeve that was completely drenched. “That won’t be necessary.”
Right then, Molly exchanged glances with Skylar and seemed extremely nervous from how pale her
knuckles were as she gripped her arm tightly.
Tobias then leaned so close toward Skylar that she could feel his warm breath on her ear as he
whispered something into it.
It was unclear what he said, but Skylar simply waved goodbye and excused herself after that.
Tobias walked away moments later, leaving Molly rooted to the spot with her hand held against her
chest. She was so flustered that it took her quite a while to calm herself down.
Skylar and Molly barely had any time to chat as the former had debuted while the latter was busy
preparing for her own debut.
Since childhood, Molly had always been dolled up like a princess with fancy dresses and pretty
accessories.
Skylar, on the other hand, looked like a tomboy with her short hair and dirty old clothes.
As a result, she used to envy Molly growing up and even saved up money to buy a hair straightener so
her hair would look better.
Molly wrapped her arms around Skylar’s the moment she entered her office, eager to share her Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
experience earlier.
“When will you be making your debut? I didn’t even know you were a trainee here until a few days ago,”
Skylar asked.
“Given how popular you’ve gotten, it’s only natural that you wouldn’t pay attention to us trainees. Anyway,
I’ve still got a long way to go before my debut. I spend every day practicing my dance routines, and they
wouldn’t even let us use our computers at all! We’re only allowed to use our phones at night, and I have
to sneak my way through security just to enjoy a cup of coffee! Man, this sure is hellish!” Molly replied.
That was when Skylar understood why Molly looked like she was afraid of being caught with the cup of
coffee earlier.
The company was extremely strict with the trainees when it came to maintaining their body weight. They
had to be weighed every day, and female trainees weren’t allowed to exceed a hundred pounds, or their
debut would be postponed.
It was very tough being an artist in this era where people glorified skinny body figures.
The two of them added each other on social media after another brief exchange.
“It’s been way too long since we last saw each other. I remember you being the only one in class without
a phone back then, and you would always watch from the side whenever others were playing with their
phones!” Molly said.
Skylar went silent upon hearing that casual remark as she didn’t want to recall the harsh life she went
through in the past.
Upon returning to the dance studio, Molly told Cassandra excitedly, “I’ve just added Skylar on Instagram!
See, I told you we know each other! Skylar and I used to be neighbors! Now, do you believe me?”
