My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul



The past couple of years had been incredibly hectic for everyone.

Charles often found his schedule flipped upside down with night shoots, while Skylar was equally consumed with her work.

Their opportunities to meet in person were rare, often limited to brief moments at home. Even their family group chat only saw occasional messages exchanged.

Phone calls were even rarer between them, so infrequent they could practically be counted on one hand.

Skylar started the call by saying she missed him and then asked how he had been lately. After catching up, she switched the conversation to Maxine.

"You've been watching web series too? Her series is popular, and she's undeniably talented. She has a lot of potential and a unique spark for someone her age.

"But something's been off these past few days she hasn't been herself during filming. She keeps forgetting her lines and has been scolded by the director a few times. Maybe there's trouble at home or something."

Charles didn't think too much about it, casually sharing his observations. However, Skylar listened carefully, her expression growing serious. If Maxine's behavior was different from before, it could very well be because of a sudden rebirth.

"Charles, can I come visit the set?" Skylar asked.

Charles was surprised. "Are you a fan of Maxine now?"

He couldn't recall Skylar ever showing much interest in celebrities. She once praised Austin's acting and claimed she admired him too. But she had never gone this far for anyone in the industry before. Now, she even wanted to visit the set just to see a young actress.

That was something new.

"I just miss you," Skylar said lightly.

Charles chuckled knowingly. "Alright, alright, I'll take that. We've got a night shoot coming up, so I'll let the crew know. You can drop by directly.

"It's been a while since we've caught

up anyway. have a few extra

skincare sets from a brand

et

deal-they sent me way too many. Mom's already taken her share so you can take the rest home with

you."

"Thanks, Charles."

After ending the call, Charles placed his phone aside and stepped out of his trailer.

Everyone was still waiting for nightfall. The crew milled around, some eating dinner while others worked on makeup or costumes.

The night's shoot involved a large group scene with all the main cast members present. Charles casually glanced to the side and spotted Maxine under a tree, talking on the phone.

It wasn't clear who she was speaking to, but tears streamed down her face as she spoke, her expression heavy with sorrow.

Though she was a teenager, the way she cried made her seem like someone who had endured countless hardships.

Maxine was widely regarded as a rising star with limitless potential. Her acting had a natural brilliance, and her expressive eyes seemed to hold entire stories.

No matter how challenging the scenes the director assigned her, she absorbed them quickly and performed with exceptional finesse.

She often outshone the lead actress in this project. It was undeniable that some people were born for the spotlight, possessing an innate talent for acting that made their performances unforgettable.

Perhaps sensing his gaze, Maxine wiped her tears hastily and turned to look at him. Their eyes met.

Caught off guard, Maxine bit her lip and blushed furiously. It seemed she hadn't expected anyone to witness her vulnerable moment.
