NovelEnglishInside the meeting room of the Ford Group, all the higher-ups sat around the long meeting table,
reporting the negative impact of the employees’ suicide issue on the company.
Everyone held their breath as the CEO wore a dark expression on his face while he went through the
reports.
There was a pin drop silence. Ding! A ding from a phone broke the silence. Instantly, everyone looked
towards Tobias as it was his phone.
The staff had started to notice that Tobias was a different man now. Back then, he would have never
brought his phone along into the meeting room, but not anymore.
Right then, he looked up to take a glimpse of everyone there and the lot of them immediately shifted
their gaze away. Tobias opened up his WhatsApp to see a photo of Skylar with her new hair color.
His brows knitted. What color is this? She looks like someone just dumped soda on her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTobias raised his hand as he kept his eyes on the photo. She’s such a weirdo, nothing like how a
woman should be.
“Did I ask you to stop? From now on, everyone reports to me on the solution of your respective
department and the possible reasons behind the suicide. Starting from the right and go from there.”
Tobias issued out the order while his hand replied to the message.
Tobias: It’s so ugly.
Everyone present was on their best behavior, carefully reporting everything as they were terrified to
even misread a word.
Soon after, Skylar got a reply from Tobias. His blunt respond was a clear indication of his displeasure
with her new look.
Valerie had asked her assistant to bring Skylar to the practice room. The room took up almost the
whole floor. It was a place where the trainees practiced their dancing and body shaping exercises.
Skylar watched their practice through the glass wall. The boys in there all looked quite feminine, but
their bodies looked really fit. Everyone had a towel on their neck as they repeatedly practiced the
dance moves. Their shirts were already soaked in sweat.
“Yo… isn’t this my sister-in-law?” A familiar voice came from behind. Skylar turned around and saw that
it was Sheldon.
He sounded the same as always, his tone was much softer than Tobias’. And every time he greeted
someone, he would have a sly grin on his face.
“Why are you here? I think I haven’t seen you in a long while now.” Skylar asked. She was still getting
used to how Sheldon addressed her.
“My girlfriend’s inside.” Sheldon pointed into the practice room.
Skylar was immediately stumped. She was shocked by the speed at which Sheldon changed his
girlfriend. The last time she saw him, he was with a famous online influencer. But now, it was a trainee.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTruth be told, Sheldon was famous on the internet. A lot of female celebrities and online influencers
were vying to get close to him.
“It’s been a long time since I saw my brother too,” Sheldon continued. “He doesn’t pick up my calls and
ignores my messages on WhatsApp. Being neglected like this doesn’t feel good.”
Skylar could not tell Sheldon that she was with Tobias every day either.
“You free tonight? Let’s have dinner together,” Sheldon invited.
“I’m actually on a diet recently, sorry.”
Hearing that, Sheldon started inspecting Skylar. She did seem slim enough, but compared to the
females celebrities, Skylar still had some baby fat to get rid of.
However, Sheldon smiled. “It’s just one meal. You need to eat to gain energy for your diet anyway. I can
only see my brother if you were there.”
Sheldon’s intentions did not seem pure, but seeing that he missed his brother so much, Skylar decided
to agree. “Alright then. I’ll get to work first. Call me later tonight.”
Right as Skylar left, Sheldon received a call from Kai, so he decided that the more the merrier and
asked Kai if he was free that night to go for a drink.
