Tobias leaned down and stared at Skylar. He cupped the side of her face with one hand while the other started unbuttoning her shirt.
While he was taking his time, Skylar saw the opportunity to reject. “It’s not the right time to do it. Are you going to insist?”
Tobias raised his eyebrows slightly. In turn, he pinned Skylar down and yanked at her overalls but he was stuck in the midst of doing that.
“But I feel like it. What should we do?”
At that moment, Skylar’s phone suddenly rang.
It was so loud as if she had speakers attached to it.
The call had saved her; holding her phone to her face, she created a gap between them.
“Why is someone calling at such an odd hour? Put your phone on speaker.”
It was rare for Tobias to be curious about why Skylar’s phone had suddenly rung.
Skylar took a glance and it was an unknown number.
She clicked on speakerphone because she had nothing to hide. It was late and it was impossible for a man to call her at such odd hours.
“Have you informed your friend? Why didn’t we receive the funds yet?” The woman sounded aggravated through the phone.
Skylar looked at the clock that was on the wall. These debt collectors are sure hardworking! It’s ten at night and they are still working.
“What money are you talking about?” Tobias grabbed Skylar’s phone.
“The money she owed our company. It’s fair to pay off a debt and it’s useless to continue dragging the payment. Our company is legitimate; if she’s not going to pay her debt, she will receive a statement from the court.”
Tobias hung up the phone as he didn’t want to continue listening to that woman shout. He lay down on the bed and rubbed his eyebrows. “Who have you been associating yourself with?”
Tobias’ tone was a mix of sarcasm and contempt as he looked down on her selection of friends.
