In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 610

Chapter 610 Without Care for Her Standing

With his long legs crossed up on the edge of the coffee table and his head tilted slightly back, Tobias stretched himself out lazily on the couch. Not quite recovered from his exertions the night before, he had his eyes closed as he spoke blandly, “I just didn’t want to get married, so no matter who I was attached to, I knew that I’d bound to regret it! At first, I thought I’d just muddle through it, but later on, I came to the realization that such things simply cannot be forced.”

Gavin massaged his own throbbing temples. “I bet your current girlfriend would surely be saddened to hear that. You’re totally wrecking her dreams, man.”

Tobias opened his eyes. “She’s just a little girl. Besides, she’s never brought this up for discussion before.”

That only piqued Gavin’s curiosity even more. What sort of woman is she to be able to win the recognition as Tobias’ girlfriend?

Seeing Laurel’s incoming message prompted him to tap on it immediately.

Laurel: You’ve left some stuff behind. I’ll have them sent back to you by courier.

Gavin frowned. These past few days, he had been contemplating using picking up his things as an excuse to visit, but Laurel had eliminated that possibility and resolutely refused to give him that chance.

Scheduled to field a meeting at nine, Tobias tapped on his watch in a gesture that Gavin understood immediately. The latter puffed out the smoke from his mouth and got back onto his feet. “I’m out of here. My family’s watching me really close as they’re afraid that a grown man like me would try to flee from a wedding.”

Tobias merely waved his hand. At the office door, Gavin nearly ran headlong into Eva who was sending in some files that were required at the meeting.

Eva bowed apologetically.

Gavin regarded the beauty in the corporate dress with her hair worn up in a bun. The female secretaries who worked under Tobias were never lacking in quality, especially Susan, who stayed by Tobias’ side for many years and reputedly remained single to this day.

The file on top of her pile contained the latest plans conceived for the business district, which Eva had taken a peek into before she came in.
