In the meantime, Jeremy watched as the stranger approached them, his Audi eclipsed by the latter's black Maybach.
The man was tall, and his face was as cold as ice. With a gaze as sharp as the wind in a winter night, his aura was too imposing.
Jeremy thought the man was a casual passer-by until he stopped in front of Skylar.
"Come with me once you're ready," the man said, his voice silvery.
Skylar's eyes widened at Tobias. What is he doing here?
"She's my girlfriend," Jeremy proclaimed. "Why does she have to go with you? We've been together for seven years."
Sneering, Tobias cast a sidelong glance at Jeremy and thumbed his nose at him.
Skylar was in a quandary. Caught between Jeremy and Tobias, she felt as though there was a ball of flame burning in her chest.
But in order to get away from Jeremy, she simply latched onto Tobias' arms and looked at the former ruthlessly. "We've broken up, remember? Don't ever show up in front of me again unless you’re gonna return the money. Don't think that you can run away from this. I'm gonna keep my eyes on you until the day you spit it out."
Her actions had Jeremy flabbergasted; never did he expect Skylar to move on so soon.
Given her status, he wondered how she acquainted herself with such a person, who seemed like a big shot.
"You're doing this on purpose just to upset me, aren't you? I'm not feeling well, so you can't do this to me." Jeremy clutched at that piece of cloth before his heart, holding on tightly to Skylar's suitcase.
Right then, she released her grip on Tobias' arm.
"Do you have no respect for yourself?" Tobias piped up with his piercing cold voice, thinking that she was about to run back to Jeremy.
