In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 20

It was because Jeremy had needed someone to look after him, and Skylar had stayed at his place for a few days.

Skylar was still pretending to be asleep while keeping her cool. Heck, she even changed her posture just to make it seem convincing.

“She can’t hear you, Jeremy. She’s sleeping.” He spoke into the phone.

“Who are you? Why are you answering my girlfriend’s phone?” Jeremy said with a strained voice.

Tobias’ lips quirked up. “Stop calling her at this hour. You’re disrupting our sleep,” he said. Hanging up the phone, he then threw it right in Skylar’s face, hitting her right at the bridge of her nose.

Ow! You b*stard, I won’t let you get away with this!

Skylar sat up with a groan, rubbing her nose.

“Even if your hand slipped, do you have to smash the phone right on the bridge of my nose?” she gave him a death stare.

Highly amused, Tobias quirked an eyebrow at Skylar.

Looking at her fair and baby-like soft skin, he had to admit that she was beautiful.

But her gaze was piercing like thousand sharp knives at him.

“I did that on purpose!”

Ugh, I should have added “no violence” into the contract. Skylar lay sprawling on the bed. “You might as well just kill me now. I’m done with this life.”

Indeed, Skylar didn’t know what was the meaning of her life now.

Not long ago, she was still dreaming about settling down with Jeremy and giving birth to his child.
