In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 79

As the dorm door opened, Yasmin entered. “Skylar, there’s someone here to see you and seems to be arguing with the dorm manager.”

Skylar quickly went downstairs with Avery following behind.

When they saw Sheldon, Avery snorted thinking that Yasmin made a mistake.

Avery assumed Sheldon was here for her. After all, she confessed her feelings to him the previous night and was still waiting for his answer.

She didn’t expect him to agree so quickly and to visit her in school.

Smiling gleefully, Avery walked up to him. “You should have just called me instead and I’ll go see you. There’s no need for you to come all the way here.”

Skylar was confused at her words. Though, she felt it was normal for Sheldon and Avery to know each other.

After all, the rich do socialize within the same circle.

Seeing that, Skylar too suspected that Yasmin had heard wrongly and Sheldon was there for Avery.

“I’m not here for you. My brother asked me to pass something to Skylar. I’m just a messenger.” To prove what he said was true, he even raised the bag of stuff that he brought.

Avery was dumbfounded. At that moment, she felt as if she had been slapped in public and was utterly humiliated.

As Sheldon waved at Skylar, he handed her the shopping bag he brought.

“Tobias got me to pass them for you. It’s really hard for me to get in the female dorm.”

Receiving the bag, Skylar asked, “What’s inside?”

Sheldon scratched his head. “You keep asking me questions that I can’t answer. I don’t know what’s inside either. You will find out when you open it later.”

Avery was extremely upset that Tobias was still keeping in touch with Skylar. In fact, he even got Sheldon to pass her stuff.

For Avery, seeing Sheldon alone was a difficult endeavor.

After giving it some thought, Skylar declined. “You should take them back. I don’t want them.”

Sheldon recoiled in horror. “No, don’t do this to me. Tobias told me not to return if you didn’t accept it.”

Just as he spoke, Sheldon quickly ran off so that Skylar didn’t have the opportunity to return the item.

When Skylar returned to the dorm, Avery followed her as if she was the former’s tail.

When she opened the exquisite box and saw what was inside, she blushed immediately.

It was a set of lingerie with a card beside it.

It read: I’ll come to see you tonight as I think we need to have a proper talk.

Avery snatched the card from Skylar’s hand and questioned angrily, “What’s your relationship with Tobias? Why is he sending you such clothing?”

Skylar quickly covered the box as her face burned red.

“Why should I explain myself to you? Whatever he presents me is none of your business.”

Unable to accept the truth, Avery forbade Skylar and Tobias from having a relationship.

Despicable people like her only deserve to be together with scumbags like Jeremy.

She sneered, “There’s a mirror in the dorm. Why don’t you look yourself in it? Do you know who Tanya is? You don’t even come close to comparing yourself to her.”

Skylar rebutted coldly, “I don’t need you to remind me. Look at how anxious you are. What are you afraid of? Afraid that I’ll one-up you?”

Avery scoffed, “Do you think you even can?”

Skylar threw the box onto the table as she decided not to meet him. She simply reminded herself to endure it for one more week.

Tobias will likely stop after he is married. Everything will just feel like a dream after that.

In the evening, when Skylar went to work at the cafe, as usual, Avery stole the box from the table. She changed into it in the ladies and admired her own slender body.

Wearing the black lace lingerie, she got in the black Porsche that was meant to pick up Skylar.

The driver told her, “Ms. Jones, Mr. Ford is busy so he can’t make it himself. He wants you to wait at the hotel for him.”

Avery replied submissively, “I understand.”
