In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 457

Skylar shook her head. She grew up seeing Meredith betting.

Although Meredith would only put in a small amount of money, it was still enough to make her feel happy, but Skylar was the complete opposite.

She had never played card games before, but Tobias was fixed on getting her to try.

“It’s okay. I’ll pay if you lose, and you can keep the money if you win.”

His offer sounded tempting, but Skylar felt it would not be nice to take advantage of him so blatantly.

“Don’t force her if she doesn’t want to. We still need help in the kitchen. All the ingredients are ready. We’ve got some meat, eggs, flour, beans, and some vegetables. You guys can go generous on the meat since Tobias is a meat-eater,” Claudia said, patting Tobias on the shoulder, “Why don’t you guys make something different? What about some dumplings?”

Skylar knew in her heart that Claudia did not like both Winnie and her, else she would not throw them a difficult task.

Although she was still polite to them on the surface, Skylar knew Claudia disliked her from the very beginning.

Things were even worse for Winnie. She ordered some food over and lied that she prepared them herself last time.

She tried really hard to get on Claudia’s good side, but all her efforts were futile.

Skylar squeezed Tobias’ hands and got ready to go to the kitchen. “I’ll go help out in the kitchen. You have fun.”

Skylar was dumbstruck when she entered the kitchen. The space was much more capacious than most rooms in most places.

Not long after they got in, Winnie leaned against the fridge and started complaining. “Why do I have to cook? I have no idea how to do that. Why not you just do everything on your own?”

Skylar gave her an indifferent shrug. “Well, it’s not like I know how to. You think of a way to solve the problem.”

Winnie was getting nervous. “They are still waiting to eat outside, so you’d better do something!” She raised her voice as if she was giving an order.
