Skylar furrowed her eyebrows in response. Before she saw the earlier message, she could still trust him. However, now that Idania had come in between them, her trust could only be earned if he blocked Idania.
With a resolute gaze, she asked, “Can you show me your phone? If she isn’t feeling well, she can look for someone else instead of complaining to you in the middle of the night.”
Tobias snapped, “Don’t think that this is absurd? Have I spoilt you? You are making a fuss over nothing. There’s nothing going on between us. It’s up to you whether you believe it or not.”
Skylar stared blankly at Tobias’ silhouette as he left. She had expected him to react badly to her actions.
However, she didn’t imagine that it would be to that extent.
Having watched both of them quietly, Madelyn cleared her throat and casually commented, “Throughout my years of working as a maid, I have seen such cases one too many times. Men always behave this way. But, I admire all their wives for tolerating it. As long as they received their monthly allowance, they would turn a blind eye to their husband’s infidelity and live their lives in denial.”
Skylar was still staring intently in Tobias’ direction while suppressing the exasperation in her heart.
Cognizant that making a big fuss would be detrimental to their relationship, she chose to restrain herself. Nonetheless, Tobias still looked at her as if she was crazy.
He really doesn’t know how to spoil a woman at all.
Skylar retorted, “Why must I live in denial? I ended up in this situation precisely because I did that previously.”
Since Tobias wasn’t going to block Idania, she decided to act decisively by meeting the “pitiful” lady herself. Given that she knows Tobias has a girlfriend, why must she seek comfort from him in the middle of the night?
Meanwhile, the posters that Skylar had shot for Gucci had been put up in all their branches. In it, she was dressed in period-style spring wear matched with a maroon-colored wig. The inspiration for her makeup was from medieval palace courts. Accentuating her features, helped her exude an air of old-world charm and nobility.
