In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 149

She covered her face with the script and shut her eyes in a daze, her fingers gripping her phone tightly.

Suddenly, there was a loud vibration in her palm. As though she had been injected with stimulants, she jolted out of her reverie immediately.

She sat up on one arm. When she saw that it was Tobias, she let out a sigh that she had been holding in.

She cleared her throat and accepted the call.

“Are you there yet?” His familiar voice made some of her anger dissipate.

“Yes, I just got here. W-Why are you o-only calling me now?” Skylar stuttered horribly as she tried to ask him.

“If I didn’t give you a call, are you planning on waiting forever? How can you stand being so stuffy all the time? You can give me a call too, you know.”

Skylar froze a little. Had Tobias been waiting for her to give him a call all this time? No wonder he was only calling her now.

“Where are you?” Skylar asked.

“I’m in Thailand. There’s some private business I have to settle. Why, do you miss me?”

Skylar wanted to say something in response, but she held herself back from doing so. In her opinion, Tobias was exactly like the flying man up in the sky. What is he doing in Thailand? He just went to Rome a month ago!

Skylar said uncertainly, “I might be back earlier than I thought.”

She didn’t tell him that her role as the lead actress had been given to someone else instead. She couldn’t help but fear that Tobias might think of her as being incapable of accomplishing anything at all.

Tobias promised, “I’m afraid I’m stuck here for the time being. I’ll visit you as soon as I return home. Wait for me!”

Feeling rather shocked, Skylar said, “This place is filthy as a pigpen. Are you sure you want to visit me? There’s dust everywhere and a limited water supply. I don’t even have a bathtub in my room.”

Tobias replied nonchalantly, “I’m not going there to take a shower, am I? I might not even be able to go if work gets too busy for me.”
