In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 226

Skylar pretended to sound clueless while she uttered, “Are you sure it's not?"

Every time Tobias came over, he would want to rip off her clothes savagely. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Tobias replied in a deep voice, “You've guessed it right. We can still do that even if you're having your period. There's still your mouth.”

Skylar blushed instantaneously. She had brought it upon herself for starting a topic as such with Tobias.

“Skylar, quick. Why are you chatting on the phone for so long?” one of the staff said impatiently after searching for her everywhere.

Such a horrible attitude! Skylar hung up the phone immediately.

After she had returned to the shooting location, she slipped her cell phone into her pocket and the makeup artist hurried over for some touch ups.

“There are really MM Beans!” Skylar uttered her line for the seventy- third time.

Luckily for her, she appeared beautiful on camera and her expression was young and lively. It almost seemed like a movie.

For a three thousand commercial to cast a face that looked like a movie star, it was worth every penny and even the director praised her capabilities.

Upon receiving her salary, Skylar looked at the three thousand that popped up on her card balance. That was her first step towards being financially independent.

Before heading home, Skylar saw that there were a few missed calls from unknown numbers. She ignored them because that type of calls would usually be from property agents.

Just when she was about to put her cell phone inside her bag, the phone rang again.

Before Skylar was able to utter a word, a rude-sounding woman spoke. “Are you Penelope's friend? She had severely breached her contract for a long time and that has constituted in a financial crime. We can't get in touch with her. Tell her to pay off her debts by three o’ clock today, otherwise we will sue her.”

Skylar was utterly confused. She had gave Penelope the money, so why wasn't it enough?

“I'll try contacting her.”

"Please do it as soon as possible. It's only fair for her to pay off her debts. I'll give you one hour to try and contact her.”

That woman sounded fierce and rude.

Skylar was infuriated. “Why are you so fierce towards me? Am I the one owing you? Are you crazy?”

She hung up the phone right after and called Penelope. She was unable to reach her and her voicemail box was already full.

Upon returning home, Skylar was still trying to get in touch with Penelope. Her line was either busy or shut off.

While she was bending down to change into her slippers, the lights in the living room were suddenly turned on. The brightness of the light was utterly glaring.

Skylar saw Tobias sitting on the sofa, lying down comfortably while staring at her.

“I thought you would come over later at night.” Skylar walked towards Tobias and hugged him from behind. Her long and luscious soft hair draped across his shoulder and that tickled him.

“I think I've been poisoned. I've missed you even though I hadn't seen you for a day.” Tobias rubbed the spot where Skylar's hair had tickled him.

Fortunately, Skylar was able to withstand it while he expressed himself lovingly in a serious manner.

He sounded as if he was lecturing her even though he was trying to be loving.

“Aren't I here right now? How was your mother’s surgery? I didn't ask you over the phone because I was worried that she might hear my voice from the call. Hence, I hung up.”

He smiled. “Why would I need to be disciplined by her when I'm not a teenager anymore?”

Tobias took out a lemon flavored lollipop from his coat and gave it to her.

Skylar grabbed it in her hand. “I've eaten too much chocolate from the commercial shooting. My blood sugar reading would definitely be sky high if I eat this. It's better for me not to eat it.”

Tobias snickered. “I didn't ask you to eat it. Since you told me you're having your period, why not lick a lollipop while I observe you? I'll guide you along the way.”

While staring at Tobias, Skylar playfully ripped open the lollipop, put it in her mouth and crunched it with her teeth several times. She was hinting to Tobias that would happen to him if he had continued. Tobias pulled out another orange flavored lollipop. “It's alright, I have more.”
