“Tobias… Tobias… “ he called out to his brother.
Skylar saw that Sheldon had a young and pretty lady with him who looked like a typical social medial influencer. Even though she was quite pretty, it was obvious that she had undergone plastic surgery.
Sheldon’s eyes were twinkling as if he had discovered something interesting.
There were clouds of depression looming at home everyday. Claudia was waiting eagerly for her son to return home and Tanya also wailed and wept in front of her endlessly.
If they saw that his brother was still in the mood to go on a movie date with a woman, they would definitely hit the roof.
“Hey,” Tobias acknowledged coldly. He was not particularly happy to bump into Sheldon and hence, could not be bothered to say anything else.
The influencer lookalike had heart shapes in her eyes and was stoked to see Tobias. She almost wanted to take a picture of the man so that she could brag to her friends that she was acquainted with him.
Sheldon waved to Skylar casually while Tobias looked for their seats before leaning in and whispering next to her ears, “Ms. Jones seems to know the right moves. Watching a horror movie with a guy gives you to perfect opportunity to throw yourself into his arms.”
A blush spread across Skylar’s cheeks as she replied softly, “That didn’t even cross my mind. Besides, I won’t have to use that tactic on your brother.”
“Ha!” Sheldon dismissed Skylar’s words with a snort. He did not believe that his brother would initiate a move on any woman.
As there were some empty seats in the theater, even though Sheldon bought seats at the back, he insisted on sitting together with Tobias and Skylar.
The moment he sat down, Tobias spoke with mild irritation in his deep voice, “Go sit elsewhere and don’t disturb me.”
Sheldon stood up reluctantly, feeling hurt to be rejected by his own brother.
“We can all sit together. The more the merrier anyway,” Skylar spoke.
She made the suggestion as she wasn’t sure if Tobias would suddenly feel horny in the midst of the movie and make a move on her.
No matter what, with Sheldon around, Tobias would definitely try to behave as he needed to maintain his image of a mighty, aloof and celibate CEO.
Tobias looked at Skylar intently and said, “Keep quiet.”
