Glaring furiously at the screen, she surmised that Skylar must be behind it. After all, Tobias wouldn’t have acted so
cruelly given that he knew how sick she was. He couldn’t have blocked me because he knows that he will regret it if
something happened to me.
Meanwhile, Tobias was surprised when he saw Idania appear at his office. When he looked at Sheldon who was
standing beside her, he immediately understood how she got there.
Sheldon pulled Tobias aside and whispered, “I ran into her downstairs. She told me that she needed to see you
urgently. When I saw that she didn’t look too good, I decided to let her in. After all, she looked as if she was lost in
the street.”
Tobias raised his eyebrows at Sheldon to express his disapproval of his unnecessary helpfulness.
The next moment, Sheldon made an excuse and disappeared in a flash. The last thing he wanted was to be

“Why did you block me?” Idania gave Tobias a sad and puzzled look.
“No reason in particular. I just feel that it’s pointless for you to complain to me every day. You should look for
someone else,” Tobias replied with an indifferent expression as he was very busy. He didn’t want his personal affairs
to affect his progress at work.
“Today, your girlfriend came and said many nasty things to me. The words she used were so vulgar that I couldn’t
believe she actually said them. She is such a feisty person and doesn’t even care that I’m sick. Don’t you think she
has gone overboard by doing that? Can you please put a leash on your girlfriend?” Idania lips trembled as she
spoke. The more she explained the more aggrieved her tone became.
Tobias furrowed his eyebrows and questioned, “Did she really? She’s not capable of something like that nor scolding
anyone. She’s also not as eloquent as you, and yet you accuse her of being nasty? I don’t believe you.”
Idania snorted. “Do you trust her that much to think that I’m lying? Just because I have nowhere to turn to, she rubs
salt in my wounds. It’s not like I’m asking for much, and I don’t intend to come between the both of you. Why does
she need to treat me that way? Even if I’m an ordinary friend, she shouldn’t have crossed the line by saying all
those nasty things.”
Tobias clasped his hands together while seated on the sofa. Lowering his head, he replied with a smile, “I
understand how you feel. For now, you should focus on getting better as I’ll make sure she won’t bother you
anymore. I have contacted some specialists on your behalf and will send you their contacts. All you need to do is to
make an appointment with them.”
Sensing an opening, Idania raised her voice, “I want her to apologize to me. My sickness is unpredictable and now,
whatever good mood I have is gone.”
Tobias didn’t reply. Instead, he was thinking of something else. How is it possible that Idania is bullied by Skylar?
Since when has Skylar become so capable?

Despite coming over on purpose, Idania didn’t get much support from Tobias. Instead, he quickly ushered her out
by excusing himself for a meeting.
The more she thought about it, the more her heart sank. She realized that he no longer cared about her and
couldn’t wait for her to leave.
Last time, he promised me that he will take care of me. Has the passage of time caused him to forget his word?
Ever since he parted with Skylar on bad terms in the morning, Tobias had not contacted her. Also, his phone had
also been quiet and didn’t contain any unread messages.
Hence, he regretted not compromising with her the night before. If he had blocked Idania there and then, the
matter wouldn’t have escalated to what it was now.
With a gloomy expression, he noticed that his mood was gradually being swayed by his feelings for her.
Given that Idania had come over, it gave him an excuse to call Skylar and clear the air.
However, despite calling three times, she ended his calls consecutively. When he called again, no one answered it.
