In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 291

Sheldon found her words hilarious. Indeed, Skylar was too young for his brother. She was just a little girl and had nothing in common with Tobias.

There was nothing else they could talk about other than having sex. Sheldon had never seen them chatting with each other. He was always the one who kept jibber-jabbering all the time.

Right then, Tobias’ phone rang. Leaving his meal unfinished, he picked up the car keys and instructed the maid to hand him the coat.

Claudia immediately stopped him. “What happened? Can’t you leave after the meal?”

Tobias hesitated for a few seconds before he replied, “Something came up. I have to head to the company. You enjoy your meal. I’ll see you next week.”

Claudia called out to Tobias, but he left in a hurry without looking back.

Sheldon couldn’t help but whine, “Mom, why must you make him stay? I can accompany you. You’re biased towards Tobias, Mom. You’re always worried about his marriage and you’ve never once cared about me. I’m not that young anymore. Don’t you think I should settle down and get married?”

Claudia held her head with one hand and pinched her brows. “I had high hopes for Tobias. I expect him to get married and have a child soon. But I guess it’s not going to happen. Do as you please, Sheldon. Pick a few women from our family friends and choose the one whom you like.”

Upon hearing that, the smirk on his face faded. Sheldon cleared his throat and asked with a serious look, “Can’t I go for the woman I like? Why must I pick one from our family friends? Those heiresses are spoilt and pretentious. We’re living in modern times now. Who still cares about social status?”

Claudia raised her volume. “Stop dreaming! I’m doing this for your own good. Don’t behave like your brother and never get yourself a promiscuous woman. I loathe those gold-diggers who are calculating and materialistic. Just like Skylar Jones, she’s a shameless woman and has ruined our family.
