In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 540

Smile for the camera. Relax. Give off the clear, gentle aura of a midsummer night’s dream.

When the photographer and Skylar later went over the pictures they’d taken, they quickly discovered that she looked like she was forcing a smile in nearly every one of them.

It was as if someone had been holding a gun to her head and made her do this photoshoot.

“I’ll take a moment to organize my feelings, and we can do a retake soon after,” Skylar offered apologetically.

Noticing the necklace around Skylar’s neck, the photographer shook his head. “I think you should take that off and ask one of the stylists to give you a new one.”

She reached out a hand to gingerly touch the black swan pendant. Though she had grown attached to her birthday present, she eventually relented and switched it out.

It was late afternoon when the photoshoot finally wrapped up. Skylar approached Molly right before she left, saying, “See you soon. Let’s go out for a meal together next time.”

“When? I don’t want this to be an empty promise.”

She hadn’t expected Molly to be so blunt. Of course, her invitation had indeed been nothing more than an empty promise, but she couldn’t go back on her word now. “Tomorrow night. I’ll text you the rest of the details.”

This dinner meet-up would be a good excuse for her to invite Penelope out. They hadn’t seen each other since Penelope gave birth, and it couldn’t be good for her mental health to stay indoors for so long.

Perhaps it might ease the woman’s grudge against her if she came out for a breath of fresh air.

Skylar was still truly at a loss as to what she had done wrong for Penelope to get pissed at the mere sight of her.

Meanwhile, Molly was glowing with pride after getting asked out to dinner by Skylar in front of so many people.

In her opinion, Skylar had been smart to choose her, out of everyone, to be besties with.

Molly was already prepared to take a picture with Skylar after they had dinner. She could post it on Instagram and gain more followers.
