Tobias rarely ever cares about my activities… I wonder if he knows about me bumping into Marcus at the café

earlier? If he knows, then choosing to keep it from him would only lead to him overthinking.

“I was meeting up with my manager for a discussion, and I ended up bumping into Marcus after that.”

Tobias frowned. “You’d better stay away from Marcus and Ingrid in the future. They’re never up to any good.”

Skylar had no idea what the grudge between them was about, or if it was actually between their parents who got

them involved.

Regardless, she simply nodded and stuffed the snack into her mouth.

“Did you make this yourself? It tastes amazing!” Skylar exclaimed.

“If you find it amazing, then it couldn’t possibly have been me. My mom was the one who had me bring them over,”

Tobias replied.

Skylar nearly choked when she heard that and went wide-eyed with surprise. Claudia made me snacks? This isn’t

like her at all! Now that I think about it, I haven’t seen her in a long time. It was always so stressful being around

her, especially since she sighs a lot. It’s almost as if she’s disappointed in Tobias for choosing to be with me, and she

has no choice but to accept me.

“I’ll pay Mrs. Ford a visit as soon as I have the time. I’ve been so busy with work lately that I can’t even come home

early,” Skylar said.

Tobias was quick to stop her. “I suggest you don’t go and see her unless she invites you. She isn’t exactly right in the

head these days, so there’s no telling what nasty stuff she might say to you while you’re there. You’ll end up in a

foul mood and fight with me. So, I don’t see any point in you doing that.”

At that moment, the screen of Tobias’ phone lit up as tons of messages came in one after another, catching the

attention of Skylar instantly. Judging by how aggressively the person is texting him so late at night, it’s either from

someone he owes money to or a woman!

Skylar’s gaze was so obvious that Tobias noticed her peeking at it. “Are you that curious about what’s in my phone?

You can go through it if you want.”

“W-Why would I want to do that? I don’t care who’s texting you!” Skylar stammered and looked away after being

caught in the act.

Despite what she said, her curiosity got the better of her, and she reached for his phone anyway.

Naturally, Tobias made no effort to stop her. However, the expression on Skylar’s face changed the moment she

saw Idania’s name on the screen. She then looked up at Tobias and asked, “Why are you still in contact with her?

You told me you would never go back to your ex!”

Tobias was not expecting for Idania to text him at all.

Idania: I’m not feeling well, and I don’t know how much time I have left. I used to think life was boring, but now I

realize how beautiful it is.

Idania: Are you busy? Make sure to reply when you see my message, okay? Your coat is still here with me. When

will you come to collect it?

Idania: I’ve only had a bit of soup throughout the entire day as I didn’t have the appetite for anything. Ah… Do you

remember how much I loved eating fried beef cutlets? It tastes really good with a crispy layer on the outside. I

wonder if they’re still available these days…

Idania: Could you come over and see me when you’re done with work? I’m scared of being all alone.

Idania: I had to stop working so suddenly, and I’m still not used to having so much free time. If I get better, I’m

definitely going back to work as soon as I can! Do you happen to be in need of a secretary, Mr. Ford?

Skylar’s frown deepened as she read through the messages. What the hell is she playing at? Is she trying to gain his

sympathy or something by acting all pitiful? Please, I’ve tried that before many years ago! Whenever Jeremy

wouldn’t reply to my texts, I’d come up with all sorts of excuses to make it sound weak and in pain, but he just

ignored me and kept on gaming! Oh, well… I suppose we all meet a scumbag or two at some point in life. All we

can do is hope we don’t spend the rest of our life with them!

She then tossed the phone toward Tobias so he could see it for himself.
