Chapter 558

When Skylar recalled the nature of James’ job, she was worried that he would bring it up in his idle chatter with his colleagues. Hence, she denied immediately, “I don’t have a boyfriend yet. He is a friend and my superior at work.”
Tobias’ eyes squinted in response as he watched Skylar lie through her teeth.
“Hello, my name is James Jackson. I’m Skylar’s friend from high school. She used to sit in front of me,” James introduced himself warmly and he stood up to shake Tobias’ hand.

As he stared at James coldly, James’ hand was still extended awkwardly.
“Are you done eating? There’s something urgent at the office. Come back with me right away.” He turned his gaze toward Skylar.
