In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 154

Imagining that painful yet gentle sensation, a sense of pleasure and excitement arose in Skylar’s heart.

She got out of bed and stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, then took off her pants and tried spanking herself erotically.

To her frustration, she could not achieve a sense of pleasure out of it.

Suddenly, she came back to her senses. What the hell am I doing?

She put on her pants again and crawled back into bed when she noticed a few unread messages on her phone.

Tobias: Have you seen it? How do you feel?

Tobias: We can try that when we meet.

His suggestive text messages made Skylar wondered if he was truly in a meeting. How could he speak of such things if he were in a meeting?

She sent a smiley face emoji without typing anything else.

Tobias: Come on, say something. Don’t just send me a smiley face.

Skylar: I’m afraid of pain. If you hit me like that, it would be considered domestic violence. I’m not a fan of that.

Tobias: Don’t worry, I will control the intensity. You don’t have to be shy with me. Just be yourself.

Skylar: I’m going to sleep.

Although Skylar put an end to the topic abruptly, her heart was captivated by Tobias. As the night fell, the air conditioner made a rumbling sound.

Tobias did not respond to her message any further or even wished her good night, causing her to wonder if she had disappointed him.

At ten o’clock that night, the atmosphere in the meeting room of Ford Group was silent and tense. The project manager was still busy presenting his new proposals.

Meanwhile, the other employees peeked at their CEO from time to time as though they were walking on a knife-edge.

In the midst of his presentation, the project manager wondered if Tobias was listening to him as the latter was staring at the phone the whole time.

There wasn’t much expression on his face, and his employees couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.

When Tobias heard from Skylar that she was going to sleep, he intentionally placed his phone with its screen facing up so he could easily see any new incoming notifications.

At that very moment, the project manager ended his presentation.

“Mr. Ford, do you any comments on the proposal?” he asked.

Tobias finally looked up and narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t catch anything you said just now. Could you repeat your presentation?”

Though the project manager’s throat was already dry from speaking, he had no choice but to present everything again.

Just as he scrolled back to the first slide of his presentation, Tobias interrupted him and signaled for the secretary to come over.

The secretary walked over and waited for instructions.

“Take a look at my itinerary and book me a flight ticket to N Province,” said Tobias.

The secretary was stunned. He wondered why Tobias wanted to add N Province to the itinerary even though the company had no business dealings there.

Nevertheless, he nodded and answered, “Sure, Mr. Ford. You have some time to spare on Friday. Do you want to depart on Friday then?”

“Mhm,” Tobias responded. This meant that he would need to wait a week before he could meet Skylar.

This was the first time he had changed his travel plans for a woman. In the past, he used to be emotionally detached as such matters would inevitably get in the way of his career and business.

Early the next morning, Skylar was woken up by a sudden knock on her door. As she opened her eyes and regained her senses, she regretted what happened the night before. She had spent all night chatting with Tobias and did not even finish going through her script.

She was stunned to see Kai when she opened the door. “Is the hotel on fire?” she asked.

Kai looked around in confusion. “No, do you smell smoke?”

Skylar took the hair tie around her wrist and tied her hair into a neat ponytail, saying, “Well, you knocked on my door so anxiously. I thought the building was on fire. Is something wrong?”

“I need to use your toilet. The one in my room is broken,” he said.

Before Skylar could say anything, Kai rushed into her room to use the toilet.

Leaning against the door, she said loudly, “Don’t you feel embarrassed? We don’t know each other that well, yet you charge into my room early in the morning to use my toilet.”
