In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 410

Tobias answered determinedly, “I won't. I'm not turning back. It is what it is. I won't backslide after a breakup.”

Skylar had kept that firmly in mind for future reference.

Tobias must be too confident and egotistical to humble himself in front of any woman.

Tobias gave her a cold-eyed stare, looking grim. Skylar quickly finished up her free breakfast provided by the hotel under his eyes.

“I called Brayden last night. He promised that he will sort things out with your friend.”

Skylar immediately stopped touching up her makeup in front of the mirror. Then, she hurriedly covered the lid of Chanel foundation powder and put it into her bag.

“Didn't you say you were not willing to deal with this kind of nonsense? Your bark is definitely worse than your bite.” Skylar pretended to be a victim after gaining an advantage.

Tobias said calmly, “I'm having a business relationship with Brayden. I guess he is considered one of my friends.”

As far as Skylar knew, Brayden had been telling Penelope that he and Tobias were sworn friends for life or death. Why did it sound so different from what Tobias had just said?

Brayden was only an acquaintance of sorts to Tobias.

Judging from Tobias’ power and financial ability, she could easily tell who was telling the truth. Brayden must be bluffing.

Skylar listened quietly. It was probably the first time Tobias had revealed something about other people. He had always been tight- lipped. It was almost impossible to draw anything out of him.

“I've brought this up earlier. Being together with him just won't end well. People always say that one can be a ladies’ man without being despicable. But Brayden is a despicable playboy. He can easily date any woman that he wants. Your cousin is likely to be his next target.” sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Skylar was dumbfounded upon hearing that. Penelope was looking forward to living happily ever after with her family of three. On the other side, Brayden was interested in Eva now.

Eva really enjoyed flaunting. When they were young, she always bragged about her grades by flashing her certificates from the semester in front of the relatives during festive seasons. At the same time, she would pretended to be worried about Skylar's bad grades.

After graduation, she always loved to flaunt her abilities and resources. She was feeling extremely smug and proud of her boyfriend that she brought over previously.

However, everything had changed since Eva joined Ford Group. She set her bar higher and became pickier about men. Immediately, she dumped her boyfriend and got back to single. She thought she was out of his league now.

She was overly vain. As long as Brayden was willing to spend money on her, it was hard to say that Eva would have the strong willpower to resist the temptation.

Skylar asked, frowning, “He's been with so many women. Can he handle it?”

Tobias gazed deeply at her. “This has nothing to do with you. He himself should know best.”

Skylar had a worried look on her face. She didn't care much about Eva. In fact, she was worried about how Penelope was going to accept it. Later, they walked out of the hotel. Last night was such a terrible night for Skylar. She spent a night together with Tobias at the hotel, but it was without the warmth and romance of reunion. The feeling of a bad hangover was killing her.

Her head still hurt, as if she lacked oxygen. Skylar pursed her lips and sat on the passenger seats.

“There's a dinner tonight. You need to accompany me there.” When the traffic light turned red, Tobias gave a side glance at Skylar. She looked too casual in that outfit.

His mother didn't like girls who dressed inappropriately. She believed that dressing well is a form of good manners.

On the contrary, Tobias didn't make so many rules. He just thought it would be better if Skylar could dress more maturely. She was already youthful-looking. People might think that she was still a student. However, that was the truth. Skylar was not only a student, but she was also a college dropout.

Deep down, Skylar was reluctant to attend such gatherings.

Tobias always stood out in a crowd at any banquets.

Business owners would give anything to become closer to him, even if it was just a word with the CEO of Ford Group. They would do anything to get some familiarity with Tobias.

She asked reluctantly, “What kind of dinner is it? for tonight? Let me know the time, location, and theme.”
