Before Skylar left the house, Claudia instructed a housekeeper to hand her a package of health checkups

Skylar was left in total puzzlement. “Is this necessary? I am in good health.”

She scanned through the checkup list, including items like a premarital checkup and recessive gene screening.

Seeing that Tobias was not around, the housekeeper spoke frankly, “This is Mrs. Ford's order. She wants to make sure your body is healthy.” Even though it appeared to be an act of care, Skylar felt humiliated Needless to say, after she completed the checkup, she would be required to hand the result back to Claudia. Who is she to expect that I'll do everything she says?

Eventually, Skylar handed the package back to the housekeeper. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Thank you, but I've just completed the annual body checkup conducted by the company. Anyway, please thank Mrs. Ford for me.” The housekeeper advised, “If you don't take it, I'm afraid Mrs. Ford will not be happy.”

However, Skylar had made up her mind that she would be bow down to anyone for whatever reason.

She replied with a smile. “Please explain to her for me then. I have anemia, so I cannot conduct checkups too frequently. It can wait till the time if we've decided to get married. I think she'll understand.”

Tobias, who was waiting in the car, was confused about what was taking Skylar so long. The next moment, he impatiently honked twice

Upon hearing that, Skylar turned and walked out of the house, ignoring the housekeeper.

"Why didn’t you wait for me in there?” Skylar complained the second she got into the car.

Tobias gazed at Skylar innocently. He came out earlier to start the car engine to warm the car. It has been raining the entire night, so the inside of the car was freezing.

"Why? What's there to be afraid of?"

Skylar almost cursed. Your mom suspects that I'm not clean and asks me to go for a checkup.

She swallowed back her anger and had second thoughts about discussing the matter with Tobias.

If Claudia finds out that I mention it to Tobias, she will think that I'm petty and trying to ruin their relationship.

With that in mind, Skylar decided to drop the issue. She took out her phone and key in the location of Kevin's school. “Could you drop me off there? I can't wait until he gets off school.”

“Do you really think he'll be in school after all this?”

Skylar furrowed her brows. “Where else can he go? I'm sure he won't be at home.”

“Cybercafé or underground casino. Let me ask someone to check it out, and I'll accompany you there. You should not go to such places alone.” Skylar's lips curled into a smile. “Don’t underestimate me. Do you know what my nickname used to be? I've been called the Cyber Princess.”

“Is it something to be proud of? Being addicted to playing computer games with your boyfriend and getting intimate in cybercafés.”

Skylar's face blushed from embarrassment as Tobias’ prediction could not be less accurate. Everyone has a past.

However, in Skylar's understanding, Tobias was hardly a man with a past. Surely he would not accompany his girlfriend to a cybercafé, would he? He would see that as a waste of time.

Tobias led his life like an older man, as he did not even know how to use a smartphone properly.

Skylar found it hard to believe that the founder of an online game company did not have any game app on his phone.

As expected, Tobias’ men found Kevin inside one of the cybercafés. Tobias was worried about letting Skylar go alone. Hence, he canceled his morning meeting and accompanied her there.
