Skylar was jolted when she realized Tanya had investigated her background, to the extent she knew
about her mom being hospitalized.
Claudia who just found out hated Skylar even more because of it. To her, someone that could abandon
their own mother was capable of much worse.
Tobias glared at Tanya who was trying to stop him from leaving. “You seemed to have done your
homework. It’s such a shame you’re not a detective. You should focus on taking care of the baby. Once
the child is born, our relationship will end.”
Tanya had no choice but to watch them leave as she didn’t dare throw a tantrum in front of Tobias.
On the way home, Skylar was in a sullen mood. She would occasionally stare at the neon lights and
passing cars outside the window before shifting her attention to Tobias who was driving.
When they arrived at a red light, Tobias held Skylar’s hand and threaded his fingers through them. She

Given how rough Tobias’ hand was, she realized that he wasn’t always this rich. He must have put in
years of painstaking effort to be able to stand at the pinnacle of success.
“You shouldn’t take what my mom said today personally. I shouldn’t have brought you there anyway.
Besides, you look terrible when you worry about it. Frowning makes you look like an old hag.”
Skylar didn’t realize that Tobias was quietly watching her the moment they left the restaurant.
When she felt she had forgotten something, she realized the things she bought at the mall were still
there. However, it was too late to go back for them.
They had wasted their time there.
“Does it mean we have nothing to eat for tonight?” Tobias remarked with a smile.
Skylar replied pensively, “Perhaps I’ll just cook some spaghetti.”
Tobias lost his appetite the moment he heard it was spaghetti again.
Tobias wanted to drive her out to have something else but Skylar still insisted on spaghetti. Hence, he
wondered why she loved spaghetti so much.
Tobias hated spaghetti. When he was young, Sheldon and he had to eat spaghetti every day.
Skylar led the way and brought him to a spaghetti restaurant that was very popular on the internet.
They were famous for their frog leg spaghetti and many influencers would visit just to be seen there.
Furthermore, they were also featured in many food programs.
Despite it being late, the place was still packed.
Tobias pulled aside the portière for Skylar to enter.
Skylar ordered two plates of frog leg spaghetti and a portion of roasted pork. To round off, she asked
for two cans of soft drinks.
She generously declared, “This is my treat.”
Tobias didn’t argue.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the plate of frog leg spaghetti was served, Tobias cringed as he picked up the frog leg.
He then placed it on Skylar’s plate instead.
His actions warmed Skylar’s heart, causing her to smile blissfully. “You don’t have to do that. I already
have enough to eat.”
“But I don’t eat this.”
Suddenly, Skylar felt her bubble burst. She had been overthinking.
He had given her the meat because he didn’t want them and yet she thought he wanted to save it for
her.
Skylar’s appetite appeared to be good as she finished all the food despite the large portions.
However, Tobias only had a little before leaving it by the side.
“Can you still eat?” Tobias pushed his plate toward Skylar.
Skylar replied, “Mr. Ford you really know the value of thriftiness by giving me the leftovers.”
Tobias chuckled. “Even if we order a new one, you wouldn’t be able to finish it. Hence, it will just be a
waste of money.”
Skylar didn’t understand the way Tobias thinks. She didn’t expect someone like him to utter the words
“waste of money”. People who didn’t know him might actually think he was stingy.
