In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 117

“OK, go ahead and pay then,” Tobias replied nonchalantly.

Hilary froze on the spot as that was the complete opposite of what she had expected.

Having no other choice, she swiped her credit card but was notified that her credit limit had exceeded.

Hilary was so embarrassed and at a complete loss that she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it right then.

Feeling annoyed with his girlfriend, Sheldon said, “Stop making a fool out of yourself. Aren’t you aware of your limits? There’s no need to be a show-off.”

Sheldon felt that Hilary was such an embarrassment. At that instant, he suddenly understood why his brother would fall for a woman like Skylar.

Skylar was demure and did not speak unnecessarily. With her pleasant-looking face and her low-profile personality, she was definitely not the sort who would invite any trouble even though she might not stand out.

In the end, it was still Tobias who foot the bill and Skylar followed him into his car after they left the restaurant.

“I need to go back to school today as I have an audition tomorrow.” Skylar took out her makeup mirror to check how she looked and realized that she was still looking very pale.

Tobias looked at her thoughtfully and said, “You didn’t accompany me last night and you’re thinking of going back to school? How about me then?”

Skylar blinked her eyes, feeling puzzled. “What do you mean how about you?”

There was a hint of fatigue on the woman’s pretty face and in addition to her pale complexion, she looked rather pitiful.

Tobias fixed his gaze on Skylar and grabbed her hand, placing it on the bulge in his pants.

Feeling the intensified pressure at the man’s crotch, a blush spread across Skylar’s cheeks immediately as she said, “I don’t want to pass my cold virus to you. Let’s just skip tonight.”

“The fastest way to recover from a cold is to pass it to someone.” Tobias wasn’t bothered by it at all and kissed the woman’s lips after saying that.

Tobias traced his lips all the way from Skylar’s mouth to her neck and was proceeding further downwards. The man smelt like white sandalwood and with him just inches away from her, Skylar could feel his breath on her skin.

Tobias slowly moved his hands towards Skylar’s chest and unzipped her jacket, before sliding his hands underneath her shirt.

Skylar shivered as she suddenly felt the man’s cold fingers on her bare skin. Just then, someone knocked on the car window and Tobias had no choice but to stop his actions reluctantly.

He had a grim expression on his face as he took a deep breath, feeling annoyed to be interrupted.

After Tobias rolled down the car windows, Sheldon poked his head in and was beaming widely.

“Tobias, what are you guys doing in the car? Why are you not driving off?”

Tobias had a murderous glint in his eyes right then, as if he couldn’t wait to skin Sheldon alive. “Is it any of your business? I’m not even blocking your way.”

When Sheldon noticed that Skylar was tidying her hair and pulling up the zip on her jacket, his eyes widened.

He couldn’t believe that his brother was someone who would make out with a woman in the car. Even he himself had not done that before.

Sheldon felt awkward at once that he had ruined his brother’s plan. No wonder he had such a cold expression on his face. If it wasn’t for his interruption, those two people might have already took things a step further.

To ease the tension, Sheldon quickly spoke, “Mom hasn’t been feeling well lately. You should make a trip back home. You can’t stay in a stalemate like this forever right?”

A glint of melancholy flashed across Tobias’ eyes as he gave a slight nod and replied, “Got it. Take care of mom for me. I’ll find a chance to go visit.”

Sheldon left right after he got his point across so that his brother would have some time left to continue whatever he was doing.

However, Tobias was no longer in the mood for that. He glanced at Skylar and said, “I’ll let you off today! I’ll just send you to school now.”

Skylar heaved a sigh of relief instantly but she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. A part of her wished they had done the deed.

She had to admit that she was already getting addicted to the pleasure she felt while having sex but even more so, she found that she had gotten physically attached to Tobias.

When they were nearing Skylar’s school, Tobias parked his car in an alley two kilometers away from the school compound.

It was already late at night and they could clearly hear the sound of cats caterwauling even though they were inside the car.

Those cries were bone-chilling and sent shivers down Skylar’s spine.

“Why are the cats shrieking? Are they hungry?” the woman asked.

“They are moaning,” Tobias replied.
