In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 410

Tobias answered determinedly, “I won’t. I’m not turning back. It is what it is. I won’t backslide after a breakup.”

Skylar had kept that firmly in mind for future reference.

Tobias must be too confident and egotistical to humble himself in front of any woman.

Tobias gave her a cold-eyed stare, looking grim. Skylar quickly finished up her free breakfast provided by the hotel under his eyes.

“I called Brayden last night. He promised that he will sort things out with your friend.”

Skylar immediately stopped touching up her makeup in front of the mirror. Then, she hurriedly covered the lid of Chanel foundation powder and put it into her bag.

“Didn’t you say you were not willing to deal with this kind of nonsense? Your bark is definitely worse than your bite.” Skylar pretended to be a victim after gaining an advantage.

Tobias said calmly, “I’m having a business relationship with Brayden. I guess he is considered one of my friends.”

As far as Skylar knew, Brayden had been telling Penelope that he and Tobias were sworn friends for life or death. Why did it sound so different from what Tobias had just said?

Brayden was only an acquaintance of sorts to Tobias.

Judging from Tobias’ power and financial ability, she could easily tell who was telling the truth. Brayden must be bluffing.

Skylar listened quietly. It was probably the first time Tobias had revealed something about other people. He had always been tight-lipped. It was almost impossible to draw anything out of him.

“I’ve brought this up earlier. Being together with him just won’t end well. People always say that one can be a ladies’ man without being despicable. But Brayden is a despicable playboy. He can easily date any woman that he wants. Your cousin is likely to be his next target.”

Skylar was dumbfounded upon hearing that. Penelope was looking forward to living happily ever after with her family of three. On the other side, Brayden was interested in Eva now.

Eva really enjoyed flaunting. When they were young, she always bragged about her grades by flashing her certificates from the semester in front of the relatives during festive seasons. At the same time, she would pretended to be worried about Skylar’s bad grades.
