NovelAppTobias’ eyes turned so frosty that Skylar couldn’t help but shudder.
What’s with this guy? His mood changes like the weather!
Suddenly feeling the air around them become thinner, she carefully gazed at Tobias.
The man swiftly held her by the neck. “You’re actually screwing other guys behind my back, huh?”
Skylar’s eyes turned bloodshot. Unable to breathe, she stared straight into Tobias’ pupils.
As the man let go, she let out a few coughs and panted wildly.
“What the hell did you do that for? It’s not what you think! I was clawed by someone! You’re a grown
adult, and you can’t even tell the difference between a scratch and a hickey?”
In a fit of rage, she chastised Tobias for lashing out at her without knowing the truth.
Tobias placed a hand on Skylar’s neck once again, but the latter instinctively moved away, having
already been traumatized by what he just did.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man’s dangerous eyes narrowed. The mark on Skylar’s neck looked way too vague under the
car’s dim lighting.
“Take me back. It’s already late, and I want to sleep.” Skylar felt agonized.
She realized how unlucky she always was. Nothing good ever happens to me.
Just when I finally decided to have fun during an excursion, this happens.
At this point, all Skylar wanted to do was to hide in a dark corner where no one would bother her.
“Take you back? So you can sleep with your male classmate and get caught?” Tobias’s voice sounded
more chilly than the night breeze.
“Should I sleep in the streets, then? I don’t want to freeze to death! Or how about you let me sleep in
your car tonight?”
Tobias told the chauffeur to head to King Hotel.
“That hotel is closed to the public. It’s only for staff members,” Skylar remarked upon realizing where
they were going.
Tobias cast her a glance. “So you’re saying even the boss isn’t allowed to stay there?”
Realization instantly dawned on Skylar. She had forgotten who Tobias was.
Everything felt like a dream to her now. Why would someone like him be involved with me, of all
women?
He could get any girl he wants with just a snap of his fingers.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Tobias finally took a good look at Skylar’s neck under the dazzling lights. It
was indeed a scratch mark.
The manager showed up at the lobby to personally welcome the CEO on his late-night arrival.
Every other staff member on duty did the same, greeting him with reverence.
This was a sight Skylar had never seen before. She kept her head low, deliberately maintaining a
distance from Tobias.
Everyone knew Tobias had a fiancée, yet here he was showing up at a hotel late at night.
Who was Skylar to indecently crawl into the CEO’s bed?
Tobias didn’t come here often. Whenever he did, though, it would be to accompany Claudia, and they
would use the presidential suite on the top floor.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the ring of the elevator, Skylar felt her chest tighten. All she wanted was a place to sleep tonight.
She didn’t want to come to a hotel with Tobias under everyone’s odd gazes.
After a long night, it was already early morning by the time they arrived upstairs.
Skylar took off her coat and glanced around. The place looked far more extravagant than she had
thought.
I still have a little bit of money. These words that Tobias had once said echoed in her mind.
Skylar’s arm was revealed to be full of red scratch marks. Not only that, but her lip was wounded, and
the corner of her eye was slightly bruised.
Tobias held the woman’s arm, causing her to use her other hand to pull her sleeve down and cover the
scratch marks.
Being ganged up on was nothing to be proud of.
Even so, Tobias had already seen her wounds. His tone turned gentle and comforting to the ears.
But if one were to listen carefully, the man still sounded extremely frigid. “What happened? Did you get
into a fight?”
