Chapter 545 - I was praising you

Both continued to talk, she told about how she arranged everything. Daniel sent her the contacts. She booked the hall and asked Rony for decoration. With Arlo, while in hospital, both called everyone excluding Peter, Jimmy, Maxwell and Clark who would tell the truth to Sam. It was also secret from Mia who couldn't keep a secret from Sam. Sky had shopped for his outfit a long time back when she went out with Arlo.

"Arlo knew about your plan from that long time?" Sam asked in surprise.

"Hmm" Sky nodded as she hummed.

"I thought he is very possessive towards you." He glanced at Arlo who was talking with Mia.

Sky checked his line of sight before speaking, "How can you think and that become untrue? He is damn possessive but he still has a brain."

They spoke for a few more minutes till the lights turned off as the spotlight fell on the cake. Sky led him in front of the cake and stood with David and Arlo.

After the celebration and spending some time, David and Arlo brought her home saying she has to go to work.

Ethan had left after the cake cutting. Ryan left with the trio. The rest of the people were still enjoying the party after sending Old master Cox and Mia back to home.

Days passed by, Jai's photoshoot for summer collection was set on Saturday in Harley's corporation with other few models. Due to a few models they had selected for the theme, they couldn't put on the shoot set in town A.

Jai arrived early morning to Harley corporation. Only the required staff for the shoot and related managers were present in the studio. Sky, Arlo, Andy, Sam, and Peter were present in the studio too.

The solo shoot went on in the beginning. After Jai's solo, Sky took him out with the other three. They returned after having lunch. Next was group shoot, Jai was getting ready when Andy reported.

"Ms.Sky, A male model stood us up. We have waited until now. But according to our theme, we need a model."

Sky furrowed her brows and looked at the other male, two female models ready with Jai. The latter raised his brows when their eyes met. 'What's the matter?'

Sky smiled faintly and shook her head. 'Nothing.'

Their theme was summer holidays and accordingly, they chose outfits for the shoot. Getting a new model in a short time wouldn't only cost them a high price but it would be time-consuming too.

Jai was leaving for Country M next day and getting other models' date with him would move the shoot dates to the end of the month and they won't get time for marketing.

Sky looked at Sam. The latter spoke before she could speak. "Sky! Don't even think about it."

Peter looked at both in surprise. "She didn't even speak. How can you understand her so well?" Then shamelessly advised, "Ms.Sky, How about me?"

Sky blinked twice before replying. "We don't want beefcake."

It took Peter time to analyze what she meant. He poked Sam, "Is she complimenting me or criticizing me?"

Peter and Sam were the same height but one was a big muscled gym freak man and the other one was lean and maintained his body well.

Sam glanced at him, "Both!" which baffled Peter and the latter glared at Sky.

Sky looked at Arlo seriously for few seconds and asked Andy, "You have done a shoot for the magazine, Can you try?"

Andy was surprised and was thinking when Sam flicked on her head before leaving, "Learn to order, not to ask. It isn't like you are asking his life."

Sky lips twitched, 'Exactly, it isn't like I asked your life.' She thought to herself as she looked at him leave.

Sam knew what she was thinking hence he left without letting her voice out her thoughts. Sky realized Peter glaring at her and dark-faced Arlo looking at her.

"Ms.Sky I will do it." Andy agreed as he knew she wouldn't decide before thinking about it.

Sky nodded and motioned her hands towards the dressing room before saying to Peter.

"I was praising you. What is beefcake? Attractive man with big muscles. Be happy." Sky patted on his arms and saw him beaming.

Then she was going towards Jai, Arlo held her hand pulled her out of the studio.

'Petty man!' was on Sky's mind as she followed him.

A few directors who were present were baffled seeing A secretary taking The President out and she didn't even react. Peter shook his head resignedly and turned another side to stay away from their PDA.

Arlo knew well about the theme and type of model they required. When he heard Sam, he understood what she was thinking. Even if he wasn't sure what he would do if she asked him to try, he still thought she would ask him but she asked Andy giving him a blank face.

'Does that mean I don't look good than Andy Gill? Or she likes Andy's face than mine?...' Arlo thought of many questions to himself and took her out.

Seeing him taking her inside the fire exit, she sighed and started hearing him speak. "Sky! Why didn't you ask me? Is he better than me? Are you perhaps still angry with me? You..."

He heard a light cough that wasn't by him or Sky so he stopped instantly. Sky waved her hand at the source of sound controlling her smile.

Sam pursed his lips to control his laughter after hearing the uneasy, fearful and jealous tone of Arlo which couldn't be heard by anybody else other than Sky.

When Sam exited, Sky spoke to Arlo, "Let me keep you for myself." She stood on her toes and pecked him on the lips who was dazed hearing her.

Before he could react, Sky left from there giving him time to understand what she said and entered the studio.

Arlo repeated what she said in his mind before a smile break on to his face. Appearing in advertis.e.m.e.nts means showing his face to the world. He had a reason not to appear but he loved her reason more than that.

She was protective and heedful who knew well what would happen if the advertis.e.m.e.nt, flex, and banners of him attract too much attention. Whereas she didn't care about Andy.

'She is avoiding the consequences of getting jealous later... Wait! The first time she initiated a kiss.' He thought to himself and turned but Sky was nowhere in sight.
