Tobias was good at reading people’s emotions. He felt that he had communicated his opinions clear

enough to Skylar.

“Aren’t you going out today?” Skylar was curious to see him sipping tea on the sofa without any

intention to leave.

The winter sun shone into the room through the window aperture, bringing with it a cozy touch. Yet, the

warmth still could not melt his cold expression.

“Aren’t you always grumbling that I don’t spend enough time with you? So, I’m going to stay home,

enjoy a cuppa, bask in the sun, and keep you company all day.”

Spending time at home like an old couple was not a lifestyle that Skylar was ready for.

Seeing that she had gotten dressed to head out, Tobias called out to her, “I’m staying in, but you’re

going out? I’ve checked with your manager. You don’t have any work today, so you don’t need to be at

the set. Are you avoiding me?”

Skylar doubted herself for a second. I’ve got an appointment with Kate at eleven today. Why is Tobias

claiming otherwise?

Right when she was about to make a phone call to confirm her schedule, Tobias grabbed her wrist.

“Your appointment today has been canceled at the very last minute because your manager fully

understands that accompanying me is a better option—more practical than attending work events.”

So, he’s subtly saying that as long as I serve him well, I’ll be rewarded with a lot of resources that will

benefit my career? Skylar cringed at his words but did not debate further with him.

She was walking a tightrope, anticipating the day her accumulated resentment would burst out like a

popped balloon. She whined under her breath, “The story will surely develop differently when you dump

me one day.”

Tobias did not hear what she said. Shrugging her shoulders with a smile on her face, Skylar pretended

as if nothing happened.

Then, she removed her handbag and slumped on the sofa. Simpering, she asked, “What’s your plan for

the day, Mr. Ford? You’re probably still tired from last night and don’t have the mood to go another

round during the day, right?”

Indeed, Tobias seemed disinterested.

“Wherever you want to go. I can be your chauffeur today.” That was the only thing he could suggest.

Skylar did not have anything in mind. In fact, there was no place she wanted to go with Tobias. When

they went on dates, she always had to stay quiet by the side while he spoke on the phone.

At that moment, Tobias heard knocking on the door. He glanced at Skylar, signaling her to answer the

door.

However, she remained seated as steady as a rock with the hope that the high and mighty Tobias

would step down from his throne and do the honors.

He opened the door and was not surprised to see the two individuals at the entrance. In a cold and

unfriendly tone, he blurted, “The new neighbors are here to say hi?”

Both Miranda and Thomas were astounded that Tobias already knew about their move.

It was a double delight for Miranda. She had her husband back and also discovered the shocking news

about Tobias’ identity— the CEO of Ford Group.

In the past, she would complain about raising a daughter and often think that a daughter’s worth

depended on the value of her husband. There’s no wonder the guests at the banquet revered Tobias,

just like how the ancient courtiers behaved when they saw their king.

The term ‘new neighbors’ caught Skylar’s attention.

Upon realizing who was at the door, she shut her eyes for three seconds as she took a deep

breath. Now I know why there had been things being delivered to the vacant house across the street

since half a month ago.

She was almost certain that Thomas was behind this because Miranda did not know Skylar’s

address. He was definitely up to no good.

Leaning back against the sofa, Skylar stared at her parents. Their presence affected her mood.

“It’s your dad’s idea to move closer so that we can take care of each other.” Miranda sat side by side

with Thomas as if they were inseparable.

Skylar could not comprehend how the two could live with each other after a severe fallout.
