In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 554

When Skylar saw the wrinkles at the corner of Idania’s eyes, she reminded herself to apply her eye cream every night. After all, she might look worse than Idania by the time she turned thirty.

“Tobias and I used to come here last time. He doesn’t really like pork. Hence, he enjoys the fried beef cutlets served here as it suits his tastes perfectly.” Idania let out a gentle smile as she handed Skylar the menu with one hand.

Receiving the menu politely, Skylar raised an eyebrow. “You probably haven’t eaten with him in a while. Now, he stays away from oily food. Just a few days ago, we went to have beef wellington. I didn’t enjoy it but he liked it very much. Anyway, he doesn’t like me visiting fly-infested restaurants like this. After all, I have a weak stomach and he worries that I’ll get sick.”

Idania’s smile slowly faded. “One feels blissful when one is dining with a loved one. It doesn’t matter if it’s in a classy restaurant or a dirty one.”

Skylar nodded with a smile. “That’s true. That’s why he enjoys the spaghetti I make. Anyway, I’m not familiar with this place, so you should order on my behalf. Don’t order whatever he likes. Instead, order whatever he hates the most.”

“How can two people with such different tastes live together? Tobias and I have similar preferences for food. He likes his food with lighter seasoning.” Idania squinted her eyes at Skylar as she insisted on ordering Tobias’ favorite food.

She wasn’t lying to Skylar. Tobias used to visit the restaurant very often with her. At that time, he was so busy that he didn’t care about what he ate, as long as he could fill his stomach. Neither did he have the patience to waste time on the kind of fine dining which Skylar had just mentioned.

Hence, Idania had suffered through the difficult days of old alongside him. However, Skylar was now enjoying the fruits of their labor. After having achieved wealth and influence, Tobias had replaced her with someone younger and prettier.

Nevertheless, she had faith that the memories Tobias and her shared were irreplaceable. Therefore, she considered Skylar to just be a fling of his. Or else, there was no reason for him not to make their relationship public after so long.

Skylar replied confidently, “I won’t change my taste for someone else. I will not be happy if I have to lose myself for the sake of being with someone else. Ms. Garland, my purpose here today isn’t to discuss what my boyfriend’s tastes are nor what he likes to eat.”
