In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 3

Everyone in the private room was dumbfounded upon witnessing the scene. This crazy woman must be courting death.

At that instant, Tobias grabbed Skylar’s arm and took her out of the room.

However, Skylar was so drunk that she kept muttering barely coherent words. “You l-liar. T-That money was to save a life!”

Tobias, on the other hand, felt that this woman was vile to the core, using liquid courage to scam him.

But he wasn’t surprised either. After all, that night in the operating room, she had asked for an increase at the very last minute. I gave her three million instead of the three hundred thousand she requested, but she’s still not satisfied!

She didn’t even waste a minute and came over here! She’s been real busy, I see.

Along the corridor, when Camila saw Tobias dragging a delirious Skylar out of the room, her face blanched with horror.

For Tobias, ending someone’s life was as easy as killing an ant. After all, life was worthless in his eyes.

Thus, she hurried over in panic, knowing what Tobias was capable of. “Mr. Ford, I’m not sure what happened, but Skylar here is our new recruit. She’s still young and ignorant, so please forgive her.”

Tobias glanced coldly at the manager, his lips parting as he spoke, “This has nothing to do with you, so get out of the way. I’ll be taking her away right now.”

Nonetheless, Camila replied tentatively, “She’s only a promoter. Mr. Ford, we have many girls here. Please allow me to introduce you to a few of them.”

The moment Tobias spoke, the air seemed to thicken with a sense of oppression. “There’s no such thing as ‘only a promoter’ here. Since she’s an employee here, she should’ve been prepared for this day.”

In the meantime, Skylar was sitting unabashedly on the ground as her stomach churned. A few strands of her disheveled hair were stuck to her lips as she hugged Tobias’ legs, refusing to let go. “Liar. Isn’t it enough that you f**ked me up so bad? Huh?”

Hearing that, Camila exclaimed in shock, “Are you crazy, Skylar? Do you know what you’re saying?”

Tobias’ Adam’s apple bobbed as if he was trying to control himself from doing something.

Clenching his fists, he said to Camila through gritted teeth, “Bring her purse over. I’m taking her away tonight!”

The man was well-aware of the rules in Elysium. It was clearly stated that taking a girl’s purse meant taking the girl herself.

Stupefied, Camila watched Skylar being roughly hauled up by Tobias. He then lifted Skylar’s chin and smiled mockingly at her. “I’ll give you the time to tell me in detail just how exactly I f**ked you up.”

Already gone off into the deep end, Skylar glared menacingly at Tobias. “I’m not going anywhere with you. If you wanna come at me, just come at me here, Mister!”

Tobias’ gaze darkened a fraction. “How much money do you want this time? Name your price and stop pretending to be innocent.”

Skylar met Tobias’ intimidating gaze head-on, slurring when she said, “If I actually liked you, that’ll be free of charge! But now? Hah! In your dreams.”

Camila was paralyzed to the spot and didn’t dare to interfere anymore. If she got on Tobias’ bad side, it would be the end for Elysium.

Meanwhile, Tobias’ eyes turned even colder, and there was also a hint of impatience in them. “Do I look like a man with good self-control?”

Skylar sobered up quite a lot upon hearing this.

As he pushed open the door of the private room, Skylar winced from the stabbing pain in her wrist caused by his bone-crushing grip.

Then he gestured at the men and women in the room. “Out. All of you.”

At his succinct order, everyone scrambled from their seats and scurried off, not daring to stay a second longer.
