Tobias’ eyes turned so frosty that Skylar couldn’t help but shudder.
What’s with this guy? His mood changes like the weather!
Suddenly feeling the air around them become thinner, she carefully gazed at Tobias.
The man swiftly held her by the neck. “You’re actually screwing other guys behind my back, huh?”
Skylar’s eyes turned bloodshot. Unable to breathe, she stared straight into Tobias’ pupils.
As the man let go, she let out a few coughs and panted wildly.
“What the hell did you do that for? It’s not what you think! I was clawed by someone! You’re a grown adult, and you can’t even tell the difference between a scratch and a hickey?”
In a fit of rage, she chastised Tobias for lashing out at her without knowing the truth.
Tobias placed a hand on Skylar’s neck once again, but the latter instinctively moved away, having already been traumatized by what he just did.
The man’s dangerous eyes narrowed. The mark on Skylar’s neck looked way too vague under the car’s dim lighting.
“Take me back. It’s already late, and I want to sleep.” Skylar felt agonized.
She realized how unlucky she always was. Nothing good ever happens to me.
Just when I finally decided to have fun during an excursion, this happens.
At this point, all Skylar wanted to do was to hide in a dark corner where no one would bother her.
“Take you back? So you can sleep with your male classmate and get caught?” Tobias’s voice sounded more chilly than the night breeze.
“Should I sleep in the streets, then? I don’t want to freeze to death! Or how about you let me sleep in your car tonight?”
Tobias told the chauffeur to head to King Hotel.
“That hotel is closed to the public. It’s only for staff members,” Skylar remarked upon realizing where they were going.
Tobias cast her a glance. “So you’re saying even the boss isn’t allowed to stay there?”
