Her tone was too exaggerated, her expression too stiff, and there was no emotion in her eyes.

Tobias coldly remarked, “Don’t act. I don’t like you lying to me. But if you want to be with me for twenty-

four hours, I can still accept it.”

Skylar pouted. It looked like he was in a bad mood. Tanya’s incident must have affected him. How

could any man not sympathize with a woman with a tragic background?

Skylar forced some sadness into her tone, “I know you’re in a bad mood because your family was

deeply affected by the incident, but I don’t know how I can make you feel better.”

Skylar wasn’t sure of when this would end, and how long her relationship with Tobias could last. Tanya

had criticized her as someone who could only hide in darkness and never see the light.

The way Tobias treated her was true to Tanya’s words. He had only brought her to attend a public

event and met his friends once.

He didn’t introduce her to his friends. There were only mistresses who accompanied his friends. None

of them were girlfriends or wives.

So, she was aware of her status. She was only hoping for a simple romantic relationship but ended up

with a complicated man.

“Are you full? I’ll send you to the university once you’re full.” Heavy rain started to fall outside, and a

bolt of lightning tore across the dark sky.

Tobias didn’t give Skylar a reply because he didn’t want to talk about Tanya in front of her. He knew that

Tanya would no longer be involved in their lives.

Tobias bought two umbrellas from the convenience store. He was holding his umbrella, but the rain still

wet one side of him. While Skylar was dry as a desert.

When they reached his car, half of Tobias was drenched with water dripping down his hair.

Skylar took out a bag of tissues and wiped his face dry with it.

“This saga with Tanya has ended. She won’t be involved with us anymore in the future. You don’t have

to ask indirectly about her, because you’re my girlfriend from now on. Understood?”

After whatever that had ensued, he finally gave a reply. It was the last time he would bring up this

matter, for there was no way he would let her know of what actions he took to resolve the situation.

“But your mom will never forgive me.” Skylar sadly lowered her gaze. She was evil in Claudia’s eyes,

and she never wanted to face Claudia anymore.

The atmosphere turned solemn, but Tobias still kept the engine running.

All of a sudden, he pulled Skylar onto his lap, startling her. She wasn’t prepared for it.

He locked his gaze with hers and stared at her beautiful eyes; Sensing the fear and frustration in her,

he kissed her. The kiss was gentle and not from lust. “It will be fine as long as you listen to me. She will

slowly accept you once she’s better.”

Tobias asked her to wait again. Skylar didn’t understand what she was nervous about.

The rain outside was getting heavier, so Tobias drove his car into the university compound. He stopped

in front of her department building.

Skylar set up an umbrella as she got down from his car and waved goodbye.

Tobias stared at her silhouette. Not long after she started walking, he saw her talking to a guy.

He drove in a bit further and honked. “You should hurry in now,” Tobias rolled down his window and

said.

Skylar was confused at his sudden change in attitude. The guy left in a hurry after meeting Tobias’s

sharp gaze.

Tobias drove nearer just because of some small talk between her and a guy. Is he jealous? Dispelling

that thought, she hurriedly went to her classroom to pick up a B2 French exam form.

She filled the form and went to the instructor’s room to submit it right after.

“You have been skipping class a lot recently even though you don’t have any work. If this continues, I’ll

have to inform your parents,” warned the instructor.

“I had some urgent family issue, so I didn’t manage to apply for leave,” explained Skylar.
