“I didn’t say we couldn’t get back together, did I? Are you here to see me off?” Skylar countered in a flat tone.

Anxious, Thomas glanced at Tobias, who was sitting in the car. Although he muttered a yes to Skylar’s question, his feet had already taken him to Tobias’ car.

Tobias raised his eyes to give Thomas a cursory glance. He couldn’t be bothered with customary pleasantries and maintained his indifferent expression without uttering a word.

“Mr. Ford, I’m sure you haven’t had anything to eat yet. Would you like to come in for a meal?” Thomas plastered a flattering smile on his face.

Skylar never thought that someone as cold-hearted and unfeeling as Thomas was capable of having that expression.

“No need,” Tobias responded tersely.

 

Skylar skirted past Thomas and hopped into the front passenger seat, urging Tobias, “Let’s go. I couldn’t stomach anything here, so I’m hungry now.”

Tobias’ eyes flicked toward Skylar, clearly sensing the sour mood she was in, and surmised that the Joneses must have mistreated her. I clearly told her not to come, but she didn’t listen to me. This woman really has a knack for tormenting herself.
