“This is none of your business. I don’t need anyone’s approval to be with who I want to be with.”

Tobias glanced downstairs, watching the people coming and going in the hotel lobby.

Tanya stared at Tobias and noticed a storm brewing behind his calm exterior. Thinking about how close

she was to marrying Tobias, her resentment toward Skylar intensified.

After the birthday celebration, Tobias and Claudia left in the same car.

Neither of them said anything. Claudia still could not bring herself to forgive Tobias.

When they were about to arrive home, Claudia finally spoke, “Move back tonight. Tanya’s belly is

getting bigger and she needs someone to take care of her at night.”

Tobias replied coldly, “The child isn’t mine, so what’s there for me to take care of?”

“You’re such a b*stard, Tobias. Tanya isn’t so bold. She’s a kind and capable woman. She is what every

man should look for in a woman. I’m certain she’s the perfect one for you…”

Tobias could not help but feel that Claudia was underestimating Tanya. She had no idea how

pretentious Tanya could be, always playing the victim to garner sympathy from her.

“I didn’t plan to bring this up since it’s your birthday today, but I’m in love. Tanya’s life has nothing to do

with me. If you like her so much, you can keep her by your side for all I care but don’t expect me to

compromise.”

Having said this, Tobias felt as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He had to give Skylar a

sense of security instead of making her feel like he was stringing her along.

Experiencing some breathing difficulty, Claudia clutched her chest with a grimace on her face. “Are you

trying to piss me off until I’m dead on my birthday?”

Tobias looked back at Claudia just then. The atmosphere in the car was tense, so he did not continue

speaking lest he angered her even more.

After sending Claudia home, Tobias finally had time to return Skylar’s call, but no one answered on the

other end.

Sheldon trailed after Tobias and said unhappily, “Mom used to call me a useless and immature brat, but

now you’re the one pissing her off the most, and all because of a woman.”

Faced with his brother’s accusation, Tobias replied in a calm voice, “I’ve been living for the two of you

for a long time. For once, I decided to live for myself. I’m done playing and it’s time that I settle down.”

Worried that Claudia would use him as her punching bag, Sheldon complained, “I don’t know what the

hell is going on with you two. All I know is that I’m in a tough spot and I have to protect myself. Can I

crash at your place tonight?”

Tobias did not turn him away and took him to Bella Garden with him.

Only then did Sheldon realize that Tobias had been living here all this time and that this place was less

than three kilometers away from Skylar’s university.

In the car, he couldn’t help but tease, “So you’re even keeping her company in university? Isn’t this

what parents do?”

Tobias gave him a dirty look, shutting him up instantly.

Indeed, he was much older than Skylar, but not so much that he could be considered her parent.

When the car took a turn, its headlights shone to reveal a beautiful figure standing before the closed

doors of the villa. Tobias stepped on the brake lightly and looked out the window to see Skylar.

He got down from the car while Sheldon remained inside.

When Skylar spotted Tobias, she stood rooted to the ground with an embarrassed look on her face. “I

forgot to bring the house keys and you didn’t answer my call.”

Tobias took out his keys and handed them to Skylar. “Aren’t you supposed to be filming? Why are you

back?”

Tobias’ face did not show the surprise Skylar was expecting to see.

“I took some time off. I don’t have any scenes to shoot for a few days, so I dropped by to visit.”

Seeing that Skylar did not reach out to take the keys, Tobias placed them in her hand. “To visit me? Or

to check up on me because you’re worried?”

“I don’t know. Maybe both,” Skylar answered.

Of course, she could not tell him that her imagination had run wild after seeing those photos, worried

that Tobias would be swayed.

She was also annoyed at herself for being distrustful, always allowing her negative thoughts to get the

best of her.

“Alright. Head in first.” Tobias caressed her hair that was a little damp because she had rushed all the

way back here, plagued with worry.

Skylar was dumbfounded. “You’re not staying here tonight?”

“Why wouldn’t I be? I’m just going to park the car. There’s still someone in there. Don’t worry, I’m not

going anywhere. Seeing as you came back to find me, I’ll make sure you’re well-loved tonight.”
