Scratching her head, Skylar replied, clearly annoyed at him waking her up, “Don’t you need to sleep, Tobias? Can’t you tell me tomorrow morning?”
The place where Tobias was very quiet, and Skylar could clearly hear the sound of his lighter flicking.
“No. I don’t like to procrastinate. I need to tell you as soon as I thought of it.”
Frustrated, Skylar threw the phone under the pillow. She would die sooner or later if she continued to talk to him….
“Remember this place, Skylar? We often come here, and I’ve ordered your favorite! Veggies!” Jeremy looked at Skylar with a sincere expression.
Hearing his words, Skylar now truly believed that she was dumb. There were countless signs showing her that her relationship with Jeremy would fail.
Every time they had meat fondue together, they could only order two plates of the cheapest beef because they didn’t have much money.
She could never bear eating them, whereas Jeremy helped himself without holding back.
Although it was a meat fondue, she mostly ate vegetables only.
Flipping through the menu, Skylar said without looking up, “My boyfriend is also coming over today so that you can get to know each other. And also to get the money back from you.”
Jeremy’s face took on a ghastly expression. “I didn’t say that I won’t give the money back to you, Skylar! It’s a shared asset since we’re together. Besides, I don’t believe that you have a new boyfriend; you can’t live without me.”
Looking at how confident he was, Skylar knew that she had spoiled him too much back then.
She threw the menu on the table and crossed her arms with an indifferent look in her eyes.
“When she lay on my bed last night, she didn’t say she couldn’t live without you.”
Tobias, who had found Skylar, took off his coat and sat in the empty seat beside her, with his arms casually resting on the chair.
He then shot Skylar a knowing look.
