In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 292

Skylar was lying on the bed in a hospital gown. Looking at her pale face, Tobias gently asked, “Do you want to drink some water?”

Skylar shook her head and replied with her weak voice, “I can’t drink water yet. The doctor says that I have to… pass wind.”

She lowered her head after saying that as she felt embarrassed. Tobias looked at her dry lips, then he went to the nurse station and came back with a cotton bud. He wetted the cotton bud with warm water and wiped it on her lips.

Skylar gazed at him and cast a weak smile. “I didn’t know you’re so good at taking care of people. I’ve never been sick like this before. I wonder how the filming crew is doing.”

Skylar informed the filming crew and took a few days off for recovery. After staying in the hospital for three days, Tobias sent a driver to take her home.

Tobias visited her daily during the hospitalization, but he didn’t stay long. Skylar never asked him to stay overnight because she didn’t want to make it an obligation for him. To stay or to leave, that was his choice.

The female patient next to her also underwent an appendectomy. Her boyfriend stayed with her for almost 24 hours. He fed her and gave her massages every day. Skylar was jealous of the girl, but she never held high expectations of Tobias to do that for her. It would be freaky if he stayed by her side all day long.

Miranda had already been informed about Skylar’s condition, yet she didn’t show up at all. Instead, she just asked Skylar to stay in the hospital. To Miranda, it was just an appendectomy, not a big deal. Skylar didn’t feel upset about it because she had gotten used to the absence of her mother’s love after all these years.

Skylar was bored as soon as she reached home. She called Penelope and asked her out to go shopping.

Penelope was shocked when she saw Skylar. “Are you not eating well? You’re way too skinny,” Penelope claimed.
