Skylar thought she had something to do, but she couldn’t recall it. When she started browsing her phone, she recalled the thing she had in mind.
Thus, she asked with a frown, “Have you heard of OASIS?”
Tobias gave it a thought and answered, “I do, but what do you want? Haven’t I told you I’m way too old for games? I don’t have time for games as well.”
Shaking her head, she said, “I’m not asking you to play the game with me, but I want to know if the company has a refund policy for teenagers who have spent the entire family savings to play the game?”
She never once expressed her concerns over his business. Therefore, he was confused by the reason she had brought it up out of the blue.
“Am I really supposed to answer such a simple question?”
She arched her brows in confusion because he directed the rhetorical question at her with a scornful look. As a result, she thought something was wrong with their method of communication.
“Dear Mr. Ford, if you have a few minutes to spare, can you please answer the question?” She wrapped her arms around his waist and asked in a coquettish manner.
Tobias then told her to cut the small talk because he found her irritating. “Why don’t you just spill it? I think it’s better for you to stop wasting our time.”
Since he managed to see right through her plan once again, she had no choice but to tell him the things that had occurred with Kevin, including Kevin’s age.
To her surprise, Tobias replied, “Technically, he’s no longer a minor. In other words, he has to bear the consequences of his action. We won’t be able to refund him. It’s not the sum that matters, but others will follow suit if the public is conscious we have made an exception for him. His parents can’t really blame us either. As a matter of fact, it’s their fault for not educating their son.”
