As the corridor wasn’t a good place to talk, Skylar and Lina entered a private room instead. The room
was a lot bigger than expected and had two beds inside.
In front of them was even an indoor hot-spring.
When she realized Tobias frequented this place, Skylar mumbled, “So a couple can enjoy a bubble
bath here too.”
As her imagination began to run wild, the images of Tobias making out with a pretty masseuse in the
pool flashed across her mind.
As they chatted, Skylar noticed that Lina would occasionally check the pocket watch pinned to her
collar.
Skylar asked, “Are you in a hurry? Am I holding you up from your work?”

Lina smiled gently. “No, I’m waiting for a customer. It’s already past his appointment time. Yet, he still
hasn’t shown up.”
Skylar was curious as to how Lina ended up becoming a masseuse. After all, she used to be top of the
class in high school.
If she had continued her studies, she would definitely have entered a good university.
Detecting her hesitance, Lina said with a sigh, “At that time, my parents lost a lot of money in their
business. As I still had a younger brother, I had to start working to support him. But now, things have
worked out for me. I’m making more than a manager here.”
Skylar felt that it was a shame Lina couldn’t live up to her potential. Back then, she was really
hardworking and even told Skylar that books were the path to success. She also declared that she
would be very successful in the future.
However, reality was cruel to her.
Skylar didn’t want to dwell on her sad past for too long.
“Do you have a boyfriend?” Lina scrutinized Skylar and noticed that the latter was in designer clothing
—even her shoes were limited edition.
Taking a sip of tea, Skylar replied, “Well, I’m not sure if ‘boyfriend’ is the right word.”
Lina was puzzled by her reply. Skylar took out her phone and handed it to her. “Give me your contact.
One day, we can share a meal with Penelope.”
Skylar felt awkward when she mentioned Penelope. I wonder how is she doing now?
Ever since she left with Brayden, Skylar didn’t hear from her anymore.
When they heard a knock on the door, Lina opened it. A voice rang out from outside. “Lina, Mr. Ford is
here and is smoking by the door. You should get yourself ready for him.”
Skylar could hear everything clearly from inside. Upon hearing the news, Lina let out a smile while
tidying her appearance.
Skylar asked, “Which Mr. Ford?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLina replied with a grin, “He is a regular customer of mine. Anyway, I have to work now. Let’s catch up
another day.”
Just when Lina was about to leave, Skylar called out to her, “You don’t have to go. It seems he wants to
come in.”
Lina didn’t understand what Skylar meant. “Who’s coming in?”
When Skylar stood up to open the door, Tobias was already standing right by it. His expression was icy
cold.
“Are you waiting at the door? Are you this clingy?” Tobias took off his jacket. Before Lina could get it,
Skylar was already one step ahead of her.
It’s a first for Tobias to bring a woman here. She turns out to be my good friend from my school days.
Tobias is ten years her senior. Obviously, their relationship is out of the ordinary.
The moment Tobias entered, he placed his hand on Skylar’s hip.
Lina’s mind went blank. She was stunned for a long while before regaining her senses.
“Mr. Ford, I didn’t expect you to know Skylar. It’s a small world, after all.” Lina’s gaze darkened as she
steadied herself to greet them.
