In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 146

Luxe was the biggest luxury shopping mall in the entire country. There were rumors that Tobias had built it for Tanya, his fiancée, so she could shop and dine like a queen whenever she wanted to. This was every woman’s dream—many of them envied Tanya for her good fortune, sighing that she must’ve saved the entire universe in her past life.

Unfortunately, there would never be a place for Skylar in their privileged lives.

A moment later, she threw herself onto the bed and turned her phone off. She didn’t wish to discuss such heavy topics with Penelope in the middle of the night—they would only end up speculating endlessly.

Jeremy was snoring very loudly. Skylar tossed and turned in the lower bunk, unable to fall asleep. She kicked his bunk in frustration. However, Jeremy, who was sleeping like a dead log, did not feel a thing.

Skylar couldn’t help but recall when Jeremy was lying in the hospital bed like an ill cat. He didn’t even have the energy to breathe. In fact, he reminded her of a languishing flower that had been stripped of its petals and left to die in the wind.

The loud snores then were proof that he was as healthy as a horse. She traded her body for Jeremy’s health! This was a stain on her existence that she would never be able to erase for the rest of her life.

That afternoon, the train finally pulled into N Province. She didn’t sleep a wink throughout the entire night, pulling an all-nighter for the first time in her life. On the other hand, Jeremy slept very well. He woke up just as they were supposed to get off the train.

Jeremy followed after Skylar as they made their way out of the train station. The distance between them was neither close nor far.

According to the map, there was still a long way to their destination. The production team didn’t send a car over to pick them up. Evidently, they regarded their actors with little respect.

Jeremy cursed under his breath, “They couldn’t even be bothered to send a sedan over. We have to pay for the transportation fees by ourselves! What sort of treatment is this?”

Skylar concurred with Jeremy, thinking that the crew disrespected them. However, she wanted to distinguish herself from Jeremy, not wanting to be under the same grading as him.

She managed to hail a taxi by the side of the road. The moment the car door swung open, Jeremy shot inside without even sparing her a glance and shut the door after him.

Skylar was furious. “What do you think you’re doing? I was the one who hailed this cab!”

Jeremy rolled down the window. “Well, I got in first. Get in! Who knows when is the next taxi coming? We can share the taxi fare.”

Skylar looked up at the sky in frustration. Dear God, what did I do to deserve this!
