In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 468

When they reached home, Skylar flung herself on the bed straight away and drifted into sleep without getting changed.

Tobias’ instinct told him that someone had entered their room and touched his clothes in the closet. He could remember vividly that there was a shirt next to his jacket when he took it out before stepping out for the hospital, yet it was gone.

When Skylar was sleeping soundly, he went down to pour himself a glass of water. To his surprise, Lina was still seated in the living room.

Lina asked him coyly, “Why are you still awake at this hour?”

“Did you enter our room just now?” Tobias asked her back instead.

Lina’s heart skipped a beat before she explained hastily, “Ah! I saw that the door of your bedroom was not closed, so I just helped to close it. I’m sorry for that. I didn’t mean to interfere in your privacy.”

Tobias pursed his lips and asked her directly, “How long do you plan to stay here? To be frank, it’s quite inconvenient for us when you are around.”

It was out of Lina’s expectation that Tobias would be so straightforward. She suspected that Skylar was the one instigating Tobias to do so as she felt awkward bringing up the topic herself.

She took a deep breath to restrain her displeasure and answered courteously, “I will move out at once when my new job stabilizes, and I can afford to pay rent for a room. Do you feel that I’m interrupting you?”

“Since you could sense that you are interrupting us, I hope you can move out soon. I don’t mind paying for your rental at the new place,” Tobias added coldly.

Lina was stunned and looked at him pitifully. Things had not turned out the way she had expected.

She put on a pitiful look and mumbled, “Are you feeling bad for me? I don’t need your sympathy and I don’t wish to rely on anyone. I want to depend on myself to get the matters resolved.”

“You’re relying a lot on Skylar at the moment, aren’t you? If you’re really as tenacious as what you think, you can move out tomorrow.”

Lina clenched her fists at his words. She had just decorated her room a while ago in order to give Tobias a good impression that she was an innocent woman, she even pasted a big sticker of an adorable bear on the door of her room. What? Does he intend to chase me out now? No way! I haven’t even started with anything! How can I be kicked out right away even before competing with Skylar?
