“I…”

Gia was unable to answer Jacob’s question.

Meanwhile, Tobias caught up with her.

“Hey, are you ditching me? I have a big wound on my head. They’re removing the stitches today, and you’re ditching me?” he angrily questioned Gia.

Panicked, Gia looked around. Tobias’ head was still wrapped in gauze, but he could speak more clearly now. He limped to the car and looked at the luxurious Mercedes G-Class before glancing inside.

Jacob frowned and rolled up the window on Abigail’s side right away. He got her to put on sunglasses and a cap before stepping out of the car. There was mockery and disdain in his eyes as he looked at Tobias.

Jacob chuckled. “Are you not going to introduce us, Gia?”

Tobias also looked at Gia. “Wait, you guys know each other?”

Gia hesitated for a moment before answering. “H-He’s Jacob, my boyfriend. And this is Mr. Tobias Chambers, the project manager from the Thompson Group’s film studio.”

“Mr. Chambers?” Jacob revealed a cryptic smile and extended his hand. “It’s a pleasure to finally meet you, Mr. Chambers.”

Tobias glanced at Jacob and shook his hand forcefully. He knew Gia had a lawyer boyfriend, but he didn’t realize he was not only outstanding but also wealthy.

He wondered if there was something wrong with Gia. She left such an impressive boyfriend to be with him!? Was it all about money? Did she want to secure a house from the Thompson Group?

Tobias cleared his throat and adopted a managerial tone. “Hello, Mr. Welsh. That’s quite the car you have there! Why don’t you drop me home? I live in the Southern City District, not far from here, just about 20 kilometers!”

Jacob scoffed. “Mr. Chambers, is there some misunderstanding?”
