Having already predicted Penelope’s future, Tobias didn’t show any sympathy toward her. He was more worried about Skylar getting affected by all of this.
This friend of hers is definitely plotting something.
If Skylar knew that Brayden was coming, she wouldn’t have put in the effort to cook so much.
She wouldn’t even let Brayden in if it weren’t for Penelope.
When Skylar walked into the living room, she saw that Penelope was sitting on the couch by herself. With the remote control in her hand, Penelope was aimlessly switching between the TV channels.
“Where are they?” Skylar brought a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice over to Penelope. She even added some sugar as Penelope preferred sweet drinks.
“They went upstairs to smoke.” Penelope took a sip on her orange juice.
What could they be talking about right now? The thought of Tobias hanging out with a guy like Brayden was bothering Skylar.
Just like how the thought of Skylar hanging out with Penelope had bothered Tobias before.
That being said, they were respectful enough to restrain themselves from interfering with each other’s personal relationships.
When Tobias and Brayden came back downstairs, the dishes were served on the table.
Gazing at the various dishes on the table, Tobias was astonished. I didn’t know Skylar was this good at cooking.
This is a big step up from the pasta she usually makes.
Grilled salmon, pot roast, lobster stew…
Tobias was getting ravenous just from the appearance of the dishes.
