Sheldon did not greet her as enthusiastically as he usually did. Instead, he had a grave expression on

his face as he remained silent.

Skylar had never seen Sheldon that way before.

“Skylar’s thinking of having some seafood. You’re okay with that, right?”

In a sarcastic tone, Sheldon answered, “I thought we were going to have tacos, but it seems like

Skylar’s preferences are changing, huh? It seems like her tastebuds now crave better food.”

Skylar gave him a small smile. “I’m just worried that you might be upset about eating tacos with me all

the time. Won’t it demean your status as a rich man?”

Skylar knew why Sheldon was acting in this way; she knew Winnie must have said something to

Sheldon.

Glancing at Sheldon, Tobias uttered, “You should appreciate the fact that you’re getting to eat. Why are

you so picky?”

Sheldon was in a foul mood. Ever since Skylar appeared, his place in his brother’s heart had been

plummeting.

Thus, he complained, “Tobias, can’t you be fairer? Stop acting bias toward Skylar. Skylar was mean to

my girlfriend, but you didn’t even bat an eyelash at it. Don’t you know how embarrassed I was in front

of Winnie?”

By then, the trio had arrived outside a Ferropenian restaurant.

Sheldon’s expression was as dark as the night, and it was as if he was a sulky child.

He kept complaining in the car, and Tobias ignored him the entire way.

Upon thinking about how Tobias looked down on her stingy ways, Skylar pursed her lips. She was not

one who did not mind troubling others.

When others treated her to a meal, she dared not order expensive dishes so that they would not need

to spend so much on her. She did the same even when the other person is a rich man.

However, under Sheldon’s watchful eyes, she ordered six plates of lobsters.

At that, Sheldon grunted, “Aren’t you afraid of getting a gout attack if you eat that much? You’ll get an

early death if you eat much more than others.”

Skylar furrowed her brows and uttered, “I’m still young. What does gout have anything to do with me?”

Sheldon then pointed at Tobias, who was pouring wine into his glass. “Your man’s old. You can’t just

think about yourself.”

Hearing him, Tobias narrowed his eyes and hissed, “None of my foot is in the grave yet.”

Putting one of the lobsters on his plate, Sheldon then said, “Tobias, my bar’s business is doing quite

well. Don’t you think you should reward me for it?”

In response, Tobias frowned. “It’s been so long, but you haven’t gotten much profit. Yet, you’re asking

me for a reward?”

Sheldon grumbled, “Your standards are too high. It’s already an improvement that I’m not losing any

money in my business. I want a house. I’ve recently fallen in love with a mountain villa. It’s not that

expensive. It’s only around fifty million.”

No wonder Tobias looks down on my stingy ways. Fifty million is a lot to me, but it’s barely anything to

Sheldon.

No wonder others always talk about how you should marry someone of a similar status. If you’re born

into a different world, you think differently.

However, Skylar knew it would be a bad idea to have a falling out with Sheldon, so she did not voice

out loud about how the house he wanted must be for Winnie.

In the past, Winnie often talked about how she wanted to buy a house in the area for her parents in

interviews.

To her fans, she was a hardworking girl who wanted the best for her parents. Yet, Winnie was actually

hinting at Sheldon.

Skylar thought Sheldon was a playboy, but she now realized she was wrong. A man in love was a man

blind.

Hearing Tobias’ silence, Sheldon panicked and pleaded, “Tobias, just say yes to me. Look at how

hardworking and reliable I’ve been recently. I’ll be even more motivated with rewards.”

Skylar thought, Chances are, Tobias won’t say yes.
