NovelOnlineSkylar kept quiet. It’s their right to live wherever they want. Anyway, I don’t have the ability to buy the
entire residential area. Even this house isn’t mine anyway. She did not accept it when Tobias presented
her the property document albeit her name was printed on it as the rightful owner of the house.
It was Miranda’s first time visiting Skylar. She was shocked to the core to see all of her lavish internal
decorations and luxurious furniture. This is way better than what I’ve expected. She’s living the life!
Skylar was rather hostile. “It’s better for neighbors to mind each other’s own businesses. I don’t need
your care and concern for I’m so used to living by myself all these years. It feels weird to have the two
of you showing up in my life now. Anyhow, don’t trouble me. I can’t help you with whatever problems
you’re facing either; it’s beyond my capability to resolve it for you.”
Tobias’ gaze gradually darkened. What does she take me for?
Embarrassed, Miranda smiled wryly. “I can understand it’s hard for you to digest this within a short
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttime. Take it easy.”
Considering that it was the affairs within the Jones family, Tobias did not say a word. There were things
that Skylar had to settle herself. However, for a man like him who preferred a clean-cut relationship, he
was annoyed and disgusted by the complication of the matter.
“Skylar and I are heading out. I think you guys should take an early leave.” With his head lowered and
face buried in his palms, Tobias portrayed an exhausted look.
Instantly, Thomas knew that it was not the right time to discuss mergers and acquisitions with him.
Bringing up the issue about Quest Group would only anger Tobias further.
As soon as the new neighbors left, Skylar lay flat on the sofa and massaged her temples. “I suspect
that the person who killed Irene’s sister was Thomas and not my mom. That’s the only reason I can
think of as to why a cowardly man like him would agree to divorce his wife, without gaining anything out
of it.”
Tobias could see where she was coming from.
He asked casually, “So what if you’re right? Could you be so righteous and send your dad to jail?
That’s all their own doing.”
Skylar was rendered speechless. She was worried that Miranda was being used by Thomas without
her realizing it. Her biggest nightmare was to see Thomas harming Miranda once he had achieved his
motive. He’s capable of any malicious acts.
Skylar fretted so much about it that it consumed all of her thoughts. Consequently, it affected Tobias’
mood too.
“Shall we go out and have some fun? Massage parlor or do you want to hit the bar?”
Tsk, there’s nothing fancy about how a rich guy passes his free time. The two options did not pique
Skylar’s interest. In fact, she detested them.
Tobias insisted, “Pick one.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe stubbornly pushed her to make a decision.
I abhor how the masseuses gawk at Tobias and flirt with him in their revealing clothes.
If we were to go to a bar, what if he takes a fancy to the hot girls who approach him at the bar?
In the end, Skylar chose the first option, thinking that Tobias would behave himself if they shared a
private massage room. They went to a parlor where he was a regular. Needless to say, his appointed
masseuse was extremely familiar with every inch of his muscles, except his private parts.
It had been two to three months since Lina last saw Tobias. After a long yearning, she was over the
moon to be informed by her manager that Tobias had booked a room.
Her colleagues were full of inconsequential chatter. “Mr. Ford must have missed you badly. Hey Lina,
tell us the truth, did you guys do it in the private room?”
Lina avoided their gaze and smiled sheepishly.
Every girl would have a fairy tale dream. Tobias’ presence in her life was the sole motivation that fueled
her through each day. She could remember by heart the dates of his visits and waited patiently for that
day to arrive.
