In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 87

If it were any other person that bullied his daughter, Thomas would have moved mountains just to teach him a lesson.

Tobias was calm as he looked plainly at Thomas. “The discussion doesn’t sound amicable to me.”

When he saw how miserable Skylar looked as she bit her lip, he couldn’t help but pity her.

Thomas quickly explained, “Skylar is someone emotional. I don’t know what I have said to upset her.”

Despite his reluctance, Thomas still had to hide his feelings. Furthermore, he knew Skylar wouldn’t say much to Tobias too. Nevertheless, he wasn’t going to let the matter slide that easily.

After regaining her composure, Skylar’s crying expression had changed into a smiling face. “Mr. Jones, since you know you will upset me when you say the wrong thing, please don’t ever appear in front of me again. After all, we don’t know each other well.”

Thomas suppressed his anger. “Skylar, you… Don’t regret it. I’m still your father in the end. Mr. Ford won’t like ladies that don’t acknowledge their family. I have always taught you to be kind.”

Thomas said all those in front of Tobias on purpose.

Skylar’s smile slightly froze. She could only remember the neighbor’s children laughing at her for not having any parents to educate her. And yet, Thomas could still shamelessly claim that he had taught her life’s lessons.

If one really learned from Thomas, one would act no differently from an animal.

Not willing to see the animosity between father and daughter escalate further, Tobias turned his attention to Thomas. “I know you are here to ask about Avery and you don’t have to feel bad about that. There’s no need for you to lecture Skylar as someone else will do it. Instead, you should have a heart-to-heart talk with your other daughter. Ask her who taught her to appear in my room in the middle of the night in sexy lingerie.”
