Skylar’s voice sounded monotonous from all the shivering. “You’re much better.”
Tobias was really satisfied with her answer, but he squat at the bedside and said, “Louder. I can’t hear
you.”
So Skylar repeated her answer over and over again as Tobias repeatedly asked her another three
more times.
After that, Tobias picked her up by the shoulder and used his phone to turn off the vibration remotely.
The room was quiet once again.
No one would have thought that Tobias would know how to use such an app since he did not even
know how to make payments with his phone.
“Can we do this more often?” Tobias caressed Skylar’s face as he spoke. He knew how to comfort her
after sessions like these.

Skylar did not answer, so he smiled. “I’ll take that as a yes then. Go wash up now. The night is still
young.”
She looked at him, astonished. Skylar thought they were done, but Tobias had to drop that bombshell
on her.
While Skylar was in the shower, Tobias was smoking on the bed with only a pair of underwear on him.
All a sudden, Susan called, but he immediately denied it.
Tobias did not want to be thinking about work during the night since it was his free time.
However, the phone rang once again. Tobias was getting a bit fed up so he took the call. “It’s late. What
is it?” He asked in cold manner.
“Mr. Ford, you should check Instagram. Two members of the company jumped of a building this
afternoon. It’s trending right now.”
After the call ended, Tobias waited for Skylar to come out and asked, “Where’s your phone? Give it to
me.”
Skylar hesitated for a split second. “What do you need my phone for? You want to inspect the content?”
“Of course not.”
Skylar said nothing more as she bent down to pick up her pants from the floor. She then took out her
phone from it and handed it to Tobias.
He proceeded to look for the icon for Instagram. When all of a sudden, a message popped out from the
top of the screen.
Kai: I’m going back soon. You said you’d treat me to a meal.
Tobias’ expression darkened as he stared at Skylar. “Are the things I tell you a joke to you?”
Skylar felt puzzled as there was nothing on her phone that she’d be afraid to show people. His reaction
was odd to her.
“What are you talking about? I didn’t do anything that is against your order, I think .” Skylar was not
sure, so she added the last two words for insurance.
However, Tobias did not respond. He did not care about Instagram anymore as he opened up Skylar’s
WhatsApp.

with Kai.
“We’re just good friends!” She bit her lips and immediately explained. “Don’t overthink it. And why are
you looking through my messages anyway? Do I not have any privacy anymore?”
Skylar reached out to grab her phone from Tobias, but he raised his arm to block her.
He started scrolling back their conversation and found out that they had been talking very frequently.
Right then, Tobias closed his eyes and took a deep breath. From Skylar’s perspective, he was emitting
a terrifying aura. The situation at the moment was like the calm before a storm.
So, she quickly tried to explain herself once again. “We are really just good friends. You can see that
from our conversation that we never went out of line.”
“I told you in the past to stay away from him.” Tobias voice was low and exuded a lot of pressure. “What
are you doing right now? Do you like messaging him so much? Why not just talk face to face? He’s
asking you out for a meal anyway.”
Skylar sat beside the bed, her hair was still dripping wet and her face looked a little sad.
“I didn’t even talk too much with him. He’s your cousin after all, there’s no way something would
happen between us.”
