Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1096

Seeing his shirt getting tugged, Skylar gazed at Olivia behind him and awkwardly cleared his throat, saying, "Relax. It's a human."

Moments later, she heard Austin's voice. It was strained with suppressed anger. "Open up, Ms. Bailes."

Olivia glanced at Skylar, who was alone with her in this hotel room, and felt too embarrassed to open the door.

Instead, she asked him over the door, "What's wrong, Mr. Moon? I've already asked Eleanor to inform you I'm taking a sick day."

Cast outside the door, Austin let out an exasperated smile, finding it hard to subdue his anger. "What's wrong, you ask? Don't you know what we're supposed to film today? It's an important scene on your part, and the set has been built!

"Everyone is waiting for you! Don't you think you're being ridiculous by taking yet another sick leave?"

Austin thought Olivia knew her limits. He could forgive her for throwing tantrums during her shoot with Martha, but throwing in the towel on an important shoot day was outrageous.

All they did was rearrange some of the important scenes for Martha. It wasn't like they were giving away Olivia's spot to her. Did she have to go to such lengths?

As an experienced actress in the industry, she should've been used to cases like this. If this was something she couldn't work with, how would she move forward in this industry?

"I'll be honest with you, Olivia. The investors have decided on this, and it will only stay that way no matter what you do. Instead, why don't we be graceful to each other and finish this whole shoot without more drama?

"This isn't our first time working together. Everyone understands what you're dealing with. You can throw a fit with me, but if the investors and producers find out, they'll only see you as an immature actress and a nightmare to work with.

"No one will book you for any jobs again."

"Gosh… What happened to you?" Austin asked out of concern.

Knowing the majority of the entertainment workers believed in supernatural stories, Olivia began telling him about her situation.

Then she pointed at Skylar. "I almost lost my life last night. It's not that I don't want to work; I simply can't. Look, I even made Skylar come here overnight."

Skylar's name appeared to jog Austin's memories. The latter examined him once again and realized he was the impressive senior from Sixth Sense!

Olivia's story instantly gained credibility. Austin was a recurring viewer of the show and witnessed Shannon and Skylar's true abilities.

Initially, he had considered asking Olivia to invite the Sixth Sense cast members to their kickoff party. Typically, close friends of the cast member would attend the party.
