Having already predicted Penelope’s future, Tobias didn’t show any sympathy toward her. He was more

worried about Skylar getting affected by all of this.

This friend of hers is definitely plotting something.

If Skylar knew that Brayden was coming, she wouldn’t have put in the effort to cook so much.

She wouldn’t even let Brayden in if it weren’t for Penelope.

When Skylar walked into the living room, she saw that Penelope was sitting on the couch by herself.

With the remote control in her hand, Penelope was aimlessly switching between the TV channels.

“Where are they?” Skylar brought a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice over to Penelope. She even

added some sugar as Penelope preferred sweet drinks.

“They went upstairs to smoke.” Penelope took a sip on her orange juice.

What could they be talking about right now? The thought of Tobias hanging out with a guy like Brayden

was bothering Skylar.

Just like how the thought of Skylar hanging out with Penelope had bothered Tobias before.

That being said, they were respectful enough to restrain themselves from interfering with each other’s

personal relationships.

When Tobias and Brayden came back downstairs, the dishes were served on the table.

Gazing at the various dishes on the table, Tobias was astonished. I didn’t know Skylar was this good at

cooking.

This is a big step up from the pasta she usually makes.

Grilled salmon, pot roast, lobster stew…

Tobias was getting ravenous just from the appearance of the dishes.

“Not too shabby. So my girlfriend can indeed cook if she puts her mind into it, huh?” Tobias

complimented Skylar.

Penelope replied proudly, “Skylar’s skills are on par with that of the chefs in restaurants. Back when

she was still dating Jeremy, she was the one who transformed him from a scrawny man to the plump

man that he is today.”

Skylar glared at Penelope with her eyes wide-opened. This girl is blabbering on again.

Peeved, Tobias had a sulky expression on his face. Penelope immediately realized that she had

inadvertently offended him. Why did I bring up Skylar’s ex? How can I be so daft and stupid?

Tobias responded with a chilly voice, “I got a different treatment thought. All I got was pasta.”

After hearing Tobias’s statement, Skylar was riled up. What is he getting so frustrated? Back when I got

into a fake relationship, he didn’t even bother.

She replied, “I didn’t have much to do back then. Now that I have to work, I don’t have the energy to

cook when I get home. Plus, it’s not like you’re coming home for dinner every day. There were a few

instances where I had to finish all the dishes on my own because you stood me up!”

Fraught with guilt, Tobias was reticent. Brayden poured a glass of wine for him before uttering, “Now,

now. We shouldn’t let the food on the table go to waste. Let’s enjoy the food and drinks!”

Tobias pushed the glass of wine away. “I’m feeling a bit under the weather today. I won’t be drinking

tonight.”

Brayden rubbed his nose and sighed. “It’s been a long time since we last had a drink together. I really

thought that we could finally get the chance to drink together again, but I guess not.”

Tobias seems quite cautious around liquors. And yet, he was willing to drink the wine offered by my

parents yesterday. Did he do it out of respect for my family? If so, that’s pretty considerate of him.

Brayden finished most of the dishes. He was showering Skylar with incessant praises on her cooking

skills.

At the same time, he was also grumbling about how useless Penelope was compared to Skylar.

Infuriated, Penelope retorted, “I’ll get Skylar to teach me her cooking skills and make you eat your

words! Once I become better at cooking, I’ll then be able to make you stay by my side forever.”

Brayden feigned ignorance on her statement and remained silent.
