Skylar didn’t dare tell Tobias that she was trying to lose weight as he wanted her to look plumper.
Ideally, he wanted her to have big breasts and protruding hips so that it felt curvaceous to the touch.
However, her figure was still pretty good with curves in all the right places.
Tobias had even asked her before if she had stopped growing after sixteen.
Despite sounding harmless, it was an utterly humiliating question.
She had actually put some serious thought into it. She only vaguely remembered that she had to wear
a long sleeve school uniform even in summer. It had covered all her physical beauty that came along
with puberty. Hence, no one thought about buying bras for her.
At that time, she thought how wonderful it would be if her mom were still around. However, she grew up
with minimal supervision as her parents were not around. As Grandma was already old, this was one of
the things that slipped her mind.

stocking it up. What do you want to eat tonight?”
Tobias picked up the bread that Skylar had eaten halfway and took a bite. He immediately found it
unpalatable.
“You can save the trouble. I won’t be staying here for the next few days. You decide whatever you want
to eat. Or else I can get a chef to cook for you every day.”
When Tobias told her what his plans were, Skylar pursed her lips. She had many plans in her mind as
she assumed he would be treating the place like home and spend more time with her. However, it now
appeared that he had different plans.
“Where are you going if you’re not staying here?”
“Home. My mom is due for her heart surgery. The international team of specialists treating my mom
concluded that we shouldn’t delay any longer. After all, it is an extremely risky surgery.”
When Tobias brought up the matter, his eyes were filled with concern. There were risks in any surgery
and he was worried that his mom couldn’t survive it.
“Therefore, are you going to stay in the same house as Tanya?” Looking annoyed, Skylar tilted her chin
upward.
Tobias laughed at her. “You used to be so afraid of me. And now, you’re being extremely territorial. I’ll
come back once the operation is over. So stop letting your imagination run wild.”
Skylar didn’t insist on him staying as she knew he had his mind made up and was just informing her
about it. Besides, given that Claudia was undergoing a major operation, Tobias would definitely have to
be there for her.
After breakfast, she returned to school. The moment she entered her dorm, she realized her bed was
filled with random things belonging to everyone else.
Feeling embarrassed, Yasmin rolled up her sleeves and prepared to move her things. “I thought you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwere not coming back. I’ll move my stuff right away.”
“Forget it, I won’t be here anyway. You don’t have to move them.”
Carmen sneered, “That’s true. I heard you found a new place and that it’s a villa. You wouldn’t come
back here unless you needed to.”
Despite maintaining her smile, Skylar gathered all of Carmen’s things on her bed. “You should take
your things away. It’s running out of space here.”
Carmen scoffed, “You’re so petty. Can’t you be more generous?”
When Skylar looked at Carmen’s annoying face, she understood why she was close to Avery. After all,
both of them belonged to the extremely annoying group.
When Avery saw Skylar after her class ended, her attitude improved a lot. However, Skylar could still
sense the lack of sincerity. “Congratulations for completing filming in the hills as the second female
lead.”
Smiling, Skylar replied plainly, “Thank you. I really regret taking your role from you. If it were you, you
may have ended up as the female lead. I failed to keep the role.”
