In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Skylar initially thought that it was Tobias checking in as usual. Sometimes when he was busy, he would still send her a short message. Truth be told, Skylar was rather impressed with his consistency.

Upon seeing that it was from Penelope, she tapped to listen to her voice message.

“Skylar, can you lend me some more money? I don’t have enough for my prenatal checkup.” Penelope asked for money early in the morning.

Skylar sensed something wrong from her voice. Even through the phone, she could feel Penelope’s depression.

“Where’s Brayden? Hasn’t he given you money?” Skylar sent back a voice message.

Penelope’s reply only came after a few minutes. “No. He told me to settle it on my own because he’s too busy with work lately.”

Skylar resented irresponsible men like Brayden who used work as an excuse.

Although Penelope was pregnant with Brayden’s child, she wasn’t given a proper title. But then again, she insisted on conceiving his child through deception. Thus, she had no one but herself to blame.

According to Brayden’s financial standing, it wasn’t too far-fetched to say that he could afford to buy the entire hospital, let alone pay for a prenatal checkup. Yet, he was brushing off Penelope.

“How much do you need? I’ll transfer the money to you,” Skylar replied.

Skylar immediately wired the money to her. Well before she even started work for the day, a few thousand was already deducted from her
