When they were done, a black Rolls-Royce stopped by the curbside to pick Penelope up.
She asked Skylar, “Do you want me to give you a ride? It’s hard to get a cab now given that it’s peak
hour. Since you’re already famous, why don’t you get a driver?”
Skylar declined Penelope’s offer as she didn’t want to ride in Brayden’s car. She was puzzled as to
what Lina’s intention was by saying that Tobias treated her well. What does she mean? Is she just
stating a fact, or is she saying it on purpose in front of me?
But what can she do? She must just be smitten by the sight of a mature and charming man. Skylar
didn’t dwell on it as it was just a trivial matter compared to what was currently going on between her
and Tobias.
While Skylar was waiting for a cab, a black Porsche drove in her direction and screeched to a halt,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgrabbing her attention. When its windows wound down, it revealed Tobias looking out.
It wasn’t a surprise that Tobias found her as it was easy for him to find whomever he wanted.
When Lina saw him, her dejected heart was invigorated. She looked in Tobias’ direction and gave him
a vibrant smile.
Ignoring her, Tobias’ gaze was focused on Skylar.
“What are you being stunned for? It’s cold out here. How long do you plan to stand there?”
Skylar asked Lina out of courtesy, “Do you need a ride?”
Lina nodded without hesitation. Before Skylar could say anything else, Lina had opened the car door
and sat in the front passenger seat.
Giving Lina a puzzled look, Tobias felt that she was behaving inappropriately. Under normal
circumstances, the guest should be seated in the back seat. Despite knowing Lina and the fact that she
was good at massaging, he knew little else of her.
Standing outside the car, Skylar knocked on the window with a curious expression. She hoped that
Lina would realize her faux-pas without her having to point it out.
Fine, I’ll just take it that she is oblivious to etiquette.
As Tobias didn’t comment, Skylar opened the car door and sat at the back. The moment she entered
the car, it was filled with the strong fragrance of perfume. Mixed with Tobias’ white sandalwood scent,
there was an erotic charm about it.
When Tobias asked Lina where she stayed, Lina replied with her address. In response, Tobias
remarked, “It’s dangerous there as there are many foreigners.”
Lina hung her head and replied dejectedly, “I have no choice because the rent there is cheaper. I need
to support my family as my brother is still studying.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTobias casually replied, “I’ll give you enough money for you to lead a good life.”
Skylar felt as if they didn’t know she was there. When she heard their flirtatious conversation, she
grumbled, “You can drop me off first since it’s on the way there.”
Lina’s eyes were filled with anticipation as she desperately hoped that Skylar would get off quickly. She
would then be left alone with Tobias, which was a difficult opportunity to come by.
Tobias rejected her suggestion. “Save it. I’ll send your friend home first as I have something to talk to
you about.”
Lina’s emotions felt as if they were on a roller coaster as they came crashing down again.
When they arrived at Lina’s address, Tobias didn’t drive into the compound despite being able to. His
actions made it clear that Lina was to walk back up herself. After all, he didn’t want to waste any time.
When Lina didn’t move, Skylar asked, “Is this the wrong address? Don’t you live here?”
Shaking her head, Lina looked conflicted, “As there are no street lamps, I’m scared of the dark. Also, it
really isn’t safe around here.”
