When they reached home, Skylar flung herself on the bed straight away and drifted into sleep without getting changed.

Tobias’ instinct told him that someone had entered their room and touched his clothes in the closet. He could remember vividly that there was a shirt next to his jacket when he took it out before stepping out for the hospital, yet it was gone.

When Skylar was sleeping soundly, he went down to pour himself a glass of water. To his surprise, Lina was still seated in the living room.

Lina asked him coyly, “Why are you still awake at this hour?”

“Did you enter our room just now?” Tobias asked her back instead.

Lina’s heart skipped a beat before she explained hastily, “Ah! I saw that the door of your bedroom was not closed, so I just helped to close it. I’m sorry for that. I didn’t mean to interfere in your privacy.”

Tobias pursed his lips and asked her directly, “How long do you plan to stay here? To be frank, it’s quite inconvenient for us when you are around.”

It was out of Lina’s expectation that Tobias would be so straightforward. She suspected that Skylar was the one instigating Tobias to do so as she felt awkward bringing up the topic herself.
