When she saw Shailene and Lydia stroll in hand in hand, her brows furrowed.
“Hmm, why are you here? This place isn’t open to just anyone… especially not those who can’t afford it,” Shailene said.
“I’m a guest, so I’ll be staying for free! But your dad is allowed to put you up here?” Skylar replied.
Lydia rolled her eyes. “You’re just envious that Shailene has a great dad. I heard that you’re an orphan? Aww, that’s so sad!”
Just looking at the two girls had Skylar gaging; she found them to be extremely repugnant.
After Tobias ended the call, he rejoined Skylar and looked at the duo standing opposite them.
He reckoned that one of them must be Shailene.
Shailene was astonished. “How is it that you are here as well? King Hotel is not open to the public.”
Tobias reached into his breast pocket and produced a name card which he placed into the girl’s hand before he put an arm around Skylar’s waist.
The girl’s hand trembled. “You… You’re Tobias Ford?”
Lydia looked just as shell-shocked.
They could scarcely believe how the man they called Skylar’s boy-toy turned out to be Tobias Ford.
And to have him introduce Skylar as his girlfriend absolutely blew their mind.
Shailene threw the name card onto the floor in disbelief. “Don’t think that you could try to fool us with that fake name card. Why would Tobias Ford be here? My dad says that he only visits once a year.”
“Your dad’s Yann Clover, right? As of this afternoon, your father is out of a job. If he asks, tell him that it was because you, his daughter, hurt my girlfriend.”
He then looked towards the lobby manager. “Why did you let them in?”
