In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 387

Serving Tobias a cup of tea, Harry quickly stepped aside because he dared not meddle in their affairs.

I just got to know that Ingrid still refuses to let Skylar off. What a madwoman. What about my next movie or show?

“Tobias, what are you talking about? I don’t get it.” With a grin, she feigned ignorance.

Tobias shot daggers at the seemingly innocent woman. His icy voice made everyone’s skin crawl. “I don’t care if you get it or not. Don’t think that everybody has to tolerate you solely because of your capricious way. If you ever mess with Skylar again, I’ll chop off your hand that sends her the text messages.”

Harry felt oppressed in the face of such a high-handed man. Should I kneel before Tobias and beg him to save me?

Ingrid’s breath hitched at his words. In a split second, she became agitated and shrieked, “Your woman seduces Harry first! I did that only to put Skylar in her place. Isn’t it a good thing for you as well?”

Marching over to her, Tobias glanced down at the woman. A few seconds later, he bent forward to stare into her eyes with a vicious gaze. “Cut the nonsense. Since no one taught you how to behave these years, I’ll do it then.”

With that, he stood up. Unrepentant, Ingrid let out a laugh brazenly. “Since young, Dad doted on me and never once wronged me. He still treats me the same now. Are you sure you want to burn your bridges?”

The corner of Tobias’ lips twitched up. His fingers gripped the cup handle as he replied slowly, “It’s alright that Dad didn’t teach you well. Someone else will do it for him once you leave home.”

Behind Ingrid, Harry’s palm was covered with cold sweat. The tall and burly man appeared timid and cowardly.

Staring at Harry, Tobias felt sorry for him.

I can’t think of any reason why a man like Harry is fond of Ingrid unless she intimidates and lures him into this. They’re poles apart and have nothing in common. Besides, she has put on much weight again. Even an ordinary man will be reluctant to be with an overweight woman like her.

Meanwhile, Ingrid didn’t have the nerve to blow a fuse in Tobias’ face, shrugging noncommittally. Still, her eyes flickered with fury as she simmered in bitterness.
