Chapter 66
When she saw Shailene and Lydia stroll in hand in hand, her brows furrowed.
“Hmm, why are you here? This place isn’t open to just anyone… especially not those who can’t afford it,” Shailene said.
“I’m a guest, so I’ll be staying for free! But your dad is allowed to put you up here?” Skylar replied.
Lydia rolled her eyes. “You’re just envious that Shailene has a great dad. I heard that you’re an orphan? Aww, that’s so sad!”
Just looking at the two girls had Skylar gaging; she found them to be extremely repugnant.
After Tobias ended the call, he rejoined Skylar and looked at the duo standing opposite them.
He reckoned that one of them must be Shailene.
Shailene was astonished. “How is it that you are here as well? King Hotel is not open to the public.”
Tobias reached into his breast pocket and produced a name card which he placed into the girl’s hand before he put an arm around Skylar’s waist.
The girl’s hand trembled. “You… You’re Tobias Ford?”
Lydia looked just as shell-shocked.
They could scarcely believe how the man they called Skylar’s boy-toy turned out to be Tobias Ford.
And to have him introduce Skylar as his girlfriend absolutely blew their mind.
Shailene threw the name card onto the floor in disbelief. “Don’t think that you could try to fool us with that fake name card. Why would Tobias Ford be here? My dad says that he only visits once a year.”
“Your dad’s Yann Clover, right? As of this afternoon, your father is out of a job. If he asks, tell him that it was because you, his daughter, hurt my girlfriend.”
He then looked towards the lobby manager. “Why did you let them in?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
The man understood him immediately. “We are sorry, Miss, the hotel does not host outside guests. We may have to ask you both to leave.”
The two girls were dumbfounded.
Shailene remained skeptical. Her father had clearly told her that everything had been arranged.
“My father is Yann Clover. All of you should know who he is.”
The manager maintained his genial tone. “Mr. Ford has requested that you exit the premises, so please allow me to show you out.”
She looked at the backs of the couple walking away from them.
“Is that man really is Tobias Ford?”
“Miss,” said the manager flatly as he gestured towards the exit.
When Shailene and Lydia were shooed out from the hotel, the former promptly called home to get her father to help.
To her surprise, it was her mother who picked up on the other end. “Your Dad had been informed by the human resource department that he had been dismissed… I don’t think he’s in the mood to dabble in
your affairs.”
“Next time, could you not say that I’m your girlfriend?” Skylar toweled her wet hair as she walked out. Her body carried the scent of the shower cream as the steam on her skin rose faintly into the air before it disappeared.
He was by the window and proceeded to stub out his cigarette when she approached. “Then what should I be calling you instead? My lover?”
“You should try to avoid scrutiny since you are about to become someone else’s husband.”
“Why do you need to keep reminding me of this? Does it really bother you?”
Skylar thought that was obvious. After all, she never wanted to get mixed up with a married man.
If she were given any other choice, she would have not gone down this path.
The young woman placed down the towel and went to sit by the window. She let the billowy air from outside wash through her senses.
