When they were done, a black Rolls-Royce stopped by the curbside to pick Penelope up.
She asked Skylar, “Do you want me to give you a ride? It’s hard to get a cab now given that it’s peak hour. Since you’re already famous, why don’t you get a driver?”
Skylar declined Penelope’s offer as she didn’t want to ride in Brayden’s car. She was puzzled as to what Lina’s intention was by saying that Tobias treated her well. What does she mean? Is she just stating a fact, or is she saying it on purpose in front of me?
But what can she do? She must just be smitten by the sight of a mature and charming man. Skylar didn’t dwell on it as it was just a trivial matter compared to what was currently going on between her and Tobias.
While Skylar was waiting for a cab, a black Porsche drove in her direction and screeched to a halt, grabbing her attention. When its windows wound down, it revealed Tobias looking out.
It wasn’t a surprise that Tobias found her as it was easy for him to find whomever he wanted.
When Lina saw him, her dejected heart was invigorated. She looked in Tobias’ direction and gave him a vibrant smile.
Ignoring her, Tobias’ gaze was focused on Skylar.
“What are you being stunned for? It’s cold out here. How long do you plan to stand there?”
Skylar asked Lina out of courtesy, “Do you need a ride?”
Lina nodded without hesitation. Before Skylar could say anything else, Lina had opened the car door and sat in the front passenger seat.
Giving Lina a puzzled look, Tobias felt that she was behaving inappropriately. Under normal circumstances, the guest should be seated in the back seat. Despite knowing Lina and the fact that she was good at massaging, he knew little else of her.
