She didn’t believe Tobias’ words.
Tanya is his fiancée. Given how strong his sex drive is, how is it possible that he hasn’t slept with her. Does he think I’m a three-year-old?
Tobias sat down beside Skylar and lifted her chin to kiss her. He bit her lower lip as if to punish her. “There are risks in love. Feelings alone cannot guarantee a happy family. It also depends on how a couple interacts in the long run. Would you believe me if I said I’ll marry you?”
Skylar could feel how different a mature man was from a young boy.
Tobias was calm, wise, and strong.
When she was in a relationship with Jeremy, she had forgotten how many times he said he wanted to marry her.
In the end, it was all just empty talk.
Tobias’ gentle kiss caused Skylar to have butterflies in her stomach. She quickly averted her eyes from his predatory gaze. “Both of us are not at that stage yet. You’ll take the bed while I sleep on the sofa.”
Tobias coolly recovered his gaze. Every time he made love with Skylar, it felt just like she was forced to do it. Never once did she respond willingly.
Standing up, he left the room with his hand in his pocket.
When she heard the door close, Skylar felt as if all the tension in her body was finally released.
After Tobias left, she got up from the sofa and lay on the soft fluffy bed. She felt as if she was being cuddled in a cloud. The luxurious bed in the presidential suite was a lot more comfortable than her dorm bunk.
Lying on the bed, she could still smell Tobias’ scent— the faint fragrance of white sandalwood.
By the bed, there was a blue document folder. When Skylar flipped through it, she realized she had no idea what was written as they were filled with complicated business terms.
Sniggering at herself, she realized Avery was right. How could someone like her deserve to be with Tobias? Eventually, she would have to be grounded in reality.
