“Is the rumor about your brother and Skylar true?”
Sheldon wanted to answer but immediately held back. Instead, he responded, “How would I know? You can check out Twitter.”
Smiling, Lilian said, “I don't think it's possible. I'll be more convinced if it's your brother and Saorise. I mean, look at how many huge posters of Saorise there are in your shopping mall!”
Sheldon could not provide an explanation for that as he rarely heard Tobias talk about Saorise.
Skylar had no one to pick her up. The only car that waited for her was the organizer's black MPV, which broke down right after it arrived, so she had to wait for the next one.
The sky was dark, and the temperature was dropping. It had started to drizzle. Although it was already spring, it did not bring warmer weather.
Hugging herself by the shoulders, Skylar was so cold that she stamped her feet.
At the door, she saw two female employees who had just joined the company that day. Both of them had their husbands driving a BMW over to pick them up, and there were also children in the cars.
For a moment, she was a little envious that the wife who worked overtime was picked up by her husband.
Yet, she was still standing there eagerly waiting for the MPV, with half of her body drenched from the rain.
Leaning in, Penelope gave her some advice as she whispered, “This is the perfect time for you to act weak and vulnerable to test his response. If I were you, I would call Tobias now and ask him to pick me up.”
“I can't let so many people here find out about my relationship with Tobias, can I?”
“Silly girl, I'm just asking you to call him to test his attitude, not to get him to really come to pick you up.”
