In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 122

Hearing Penelope’s brazen words, her face turned red. “Yes, but he never gave me any promises. He has a fiancée too. I am so confused right now. Should I go talk to him?” she said calmly.

Penelope was rendered speechless. Although Skylar was her best friend, she said bluntly, “Skylar, how could you do this? Why are you messing with a man who has a fiancée? You are not this kind of person. Is he loaded?”

Even though Skylar had expected Penelope to react this way, she still felt ashamed of herself when her friend said those words to her face.

After all, Tanya and Tobias’ wedding was merely postponed, not canceled. In fact, Skylar also heard that Tanya was staying with the Ford family.

She pursed her lips as she tried to calm herself. If this situation continued on, she would definitely break down soon.

“He is quite rich, but that has never been my concern. It’s just that I found myself starting to feel an attachment to him.”

Penelope believed what she said. In her opinion, Skylar was not a materialistic woman. Hence, the only possible explanation was that she was fooled by that man.

Penelope remarked indignantly, “You need to have a clean break with that guy. Considering that he is still messing around when he has a fiancée, he is no doubt an unscrupulous person. Besides, he has not contacted you in such a long time. It means that he doesn’t even care about you. Skylar, just forget about this vile man! If you want, I can even teach him a lesson on your behalf.”

Penelope had always been a daring person and was practically fearless. At times, Skylar really envied her strong character, unlike herself who was always submissive.

Penelope clenched her teeth. “Skylar, keep your head clear and focus on your career. When you’re famous, you can get any man you want. It’s only degrading to be with a jerk like him.”

Suddenly, Skylar’s phone vibrated on the table. When she saw the caller ID, her face turned pale as her eyelids trembled.

With her sharp eyes, Penelope noticed that the phone screen displayed the name “Devil.” Upon seeing the name, she was certain that it was that man who was calling. Judging from Skylar’s hesitant expression, it was obvious that she wanted to answer the phone.

She had lost contact with Tobias for a month. Hence, his sudden appearance took Skylar by surprise. Naturally, she had the strong urge to ask him what he had been up to, but what right did she have to do that?

While she hesitated with the phone in her hand, Penelope snatched it over.

Unfortunately, Skylar failed to stop Penelope in time, and the latter smashed the green button to connect the call. The next instant, she bellowed into the phone, “Why are you calling Skylar? I am warning you. Do not disturb her anymore! How dare you mess around with her when you’re marrying another woman soon? Skylar is a simple-minded girl. That’s why she was deceived by you, scumbag!”

Penelope attacked him ruthlessly like a machine gun. Her tone was harsh and unforgiving.

When she had finally finished lashing out at him, she pursed her lips and swallowed the lump in her throat.

However, the other side of the line was completely quiet. Just when Penelope thought there was an issue with the signal, a deep voice came from the phone. She couldn’t help but shudder at the menacing voice.

He answered indifferently in a husky voice, “Are you done? I need to talk to Skylar.”

“She’s not here. She has a date with her boyfriend. Don’t disturb her again,” Penelope warned sternly before she hung up the call.
