NovelEnglishThe ceremony lasted for more than an hour. After the ceremony ended, Tobias was called upon by one
of the priests.
The priest was highly revered by his mother, Claudia.
“Mr. Ford, I wish you peace and happiness.”
Tobias put his palms together before leaving.
Claudia caught up to him and uttered, “Drive me home. I’ve prepared some food at home. We can eat
together.”
Tobias gave her a smile. “You should ask your driver to send you back instead. I can’t have dinner with
you tonight.”
Claudia was well-aware of where he was rushing off to. That woman has my son wrapped around her

I told him countless times before to prioritize his responsibilities over his relationships, but he just won’t
listen.
Everything started going awry ever since she came along…
When Tobias got in the car, the vise that was gripping Skylar’s chest finally loosened up.
Having spotted Winnie in the crowd just now, Skylar queried, “Did Winnie get permission from your
mom to attend the ceremony?”
Tobias explained, “There were a lot of people at the ceremony. My mom wasn’t able to recognize every
one of them.”
Skylar understood the meaning behind his words. So he never even introduced Winnie to Claudia in
the first place.
On their way back home, the traffic was rather smooth.
During the holidays, the large city they lived in would become lifeless and empty. This was due to the
people in the city returning back to their hometowns.
Tobias dialed down the air conditioner in the car to prevent Skylar from catching a cold.
Bored, Skylar was humming a song to herself. I must admit, this is rather peaceful. If only I could
preserve this moment forever.
She was delighted to have Tobias by her side.
Tobias continued to stay beside her for the rest of the week. The two of them didn’t lay a single foot
outside the house during that entire week.
At night, they would make love in the bed; and in the daytime, they would watch movies together.

Their tastes in movies were quite different.
Skylar asked Tobias, “Do you like dramas?”
“No, they take way too long to finish. Dramas tend to stretch the story longer than it needs to be.”
“What about the drama that I acted in?” Skylar was curious to know if Tobias had watched her drama
“Unrequited Love.”
Tobias responded, “Oh, I forgot to watch it. I’ll take a look at it when I’m free. What’s the name of the
drama again?”
Are you kidding me? Even my acquaintances knew the name of the drama I acted in.
When will he start paying attention to me?
Vexed, Skylar got up from the couch and sat further away from Tobias.
The movie “Roman Holiday” was playing on the TV. What kind of stupid movie is this? Ugh, I’ve had
enough!
