In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 465

Tobias lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. He raised his brows when his lips sensed the burning sensation on her skin. Placing his big palm on her forehead, he frowned and asked, “Your forehead feels unusually hot. Are you not feeling well?”

Skylar was feeling a bit feverish and giddy, yet she just replied casually, “Nothing serious, maybe just a cold.”

In the meantime, Lina pressed herself against the wall outside the kitchen, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation between Tobias and Skylar. She dared not even let out a deep breath as she did not want to be discovered by them. She was green with envy when she saw Tobias embrace Skylar and kissed her forehead.

Pfft! Even when preparing dinner in the kitchen, Skylar doesn’t let go of the chance to flirt with Tobias. Her coquettish tone really gives me goosebumps!

When it was time for dinner, Lina sat next to Skylar deliberately at the round dining table so she could see Tobias clearly.

At the sight of the roasted asparagus, baked prawns, grilled sausages, pumpkin soup, and steak salad on the dining table, Lina sniffed and complimented exaggeratively, “Wow, all these look yummy! Skylar, your cooking skill has improved a lot. Ah! If I’m not mistaken, Jeremy’s dad has guided you in cooking, hasn’t he? He’s a chef, right?”

Skylar was handing Lina a fork. Upon hearing her words, her hand stiffened.

Is Lina bringing up the topic intentionally to drive the wedge between Tobias and me? My goodness! How can she mention my ex-boyfriend now? After all, he’s the only ex-boyfriend I have had all this while. Why can’t the others let me off and keep provoking me on this?

Suppressing her displeasure, she replied placidly, “Tobias is more health-conscious and prefers food that is less greasy. So, I actually browsed through the menu posted by others online and tried to prepare something which suits his taste.”

Lina put on a guilty look and glanced at Skylar as if she felt sorry for being blunt with her words.

Tobias did not chime in and started having his meals silently. In fact, it was his habit to eat in silence.

Lina changed the topic and talked about her career instead. “Mr. Ford, I’ve just resigned and switched to sales line now. What do you think about this line? I’m looking forward to having new career advancement and become a successful entrepreneur. I’m convinced that it can be achieved within these few years.”
