In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 109

Tobias added with disdain, “You’re quick to sell Skylar for barely three hundred thousand. Why haven’t you ever thought about improving your relationship with her? The perks you might have gotten now that Skylar is together with me should exceed far beyond three hundred thousand, don’t you understand?”

Realization suddenly dawned on them. Wesley and Sharon could never be more regretful in their life.

The wealth Tobias possessed could even rival that of a nation and he was a known spendthrift. Thus, what he could give to Skylar was unquestionably greater since rich men like him would easily spend millions just for a wristwatch.

Then, in front of Skylar, Sharon made a call to Lily to cancel the wedding and return all the money to her.

Even from this side of the phone, Lily’s loud and irritable voice could be heard clearly. “What’s going on? My son has since locked himself up in his room after returning home last night. Isn’t it too late for you to mention canceling the wedding now?”

Wesley grabbed the phone and spoke aggressively, “Cancel means cancel! That’s for the well-being of my niece.”

Skylar was relieved. Meeting Tobias’ eyes, she realized with him around, any difficult situation could be easily solved and she would never have to endure it alone.

Coming out of Wesley’s house, Tobias took her in his arms and his deep voice came from beside her ear. “I can unravel all kinds of mess for you so just relax and stay by my side. I don’t require much from you as long as you behave and listen to me.”

Skylar asked in response, “What kind of a relationship is this?”

Tobias replied gently, “You can treat me as your boyfriend. It’s up to you how you want to treat it.”

“I don’t know. I can’t answer you for now. I was already preparing to spend the rest of my life alone.” Skylar was at a loss.

Tobias gave her a faint smile. “How old are you? You sounded like someone who has seen through the temporality of life. Anyway, there is certainly some progress since you’re not so firm on your stance anymore. That leaves me with some hope.”

Tobias could surely meet up to all women’s fantasies about men. He was good-looking, mature, wealthy, assertive and possessed the charisma that a mellow man should have.

Skylar was clear about the fact that Tobias couldn’t give her the sense of security she needed. He was just like a sweet dream that one had to wake up from eventually.

You can never really get into a circle where you don’t belong. At the end of the day, you’re only shaming yourself and making it difficult for others. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Tobias said that he was starving so Skylar followed him to the shopping mall nearby.

The assets and properties of Ford Group were everywhere in the city. Even a shopping mall they found at random was owned by Ford Group.

When they passed by the flagship store of Hermès, Skylar didn’t even care to take a glance inside.

Her reaction intrigued Tobias.

“Isn’t it the case that all women like bags? Don’t you want to go in and have a look?”

Skylar looked at her reflection on the glass and mocked at herself, “With my financial status, even if I carried Hermès, people would regard it as some counterfeit products so why should I waste the money? I might as well just buy a counterfeit one.”

Tobias could somehow understand Skylar’s consumption view. Different upbringing would contribute to the different consumption views of individuals.

She might still be clueless about the extent of satisfaction he could provide her. To Tobias, money was merely a number.

All the women who had been together with him would barge into Hermès store as soon as they saw it. And then, very subtly, they would express how much they liked the bags or other products within.

He took Skylar’s hand and clasped his fingers tightly around hers. “You’re always carrying this backpack around wherever you go. Others would probably think that I’m dating a high school girl, and that makes me look so much older.”

Skylar held on tightly to the backpack in her hands. It was actually a present from Jeremy.

There was a discount at the Nike store back then and it cost less than two hundred. It was the most expensive bag she had ever had till then.

It was Skylar’s first time entering a luxury retail store. In the past, even if she passed by, she wouldn’t even dare to stop a little longer at the door.

Just as they stepped in, Tobias’ phone started ringing. He pointed towards the store’s exit and told Skylar that he needed to answer a call.

Skylar nodded and with that, Tobias left, leaving her alone in the Hermès store.
