Chapter 674 No Idea What He Was Preupied With
Tobias lit up a cigarette and with his slender fingers, tapped the ashes off it. “Get in touch with that girl.
I''d like to meet her.”
Very quickly, Susan keyed this into her schedule using her phone. She would do the same for every
instruction that came from Tobias, no matter the magnitude of the matter. That was also the reason why
Tobias thought so highly of her all these years.
Tobias was never one who rewarded anybody for effort. He was clear about what value someone could
provide him and was wholly unsentimental about it, never hesitating about giving anyone who was not
Looking at the time, Tobias saw that it was almost midnight and griped at how quickly time flew by.
Then, he and Susan departed together.
Susan did not drive as her car was in the shop, hence she followed behind Tobias in the belief that her
boss would offer her a ride.
With Skr on his mind, Tobias left hispanion with these perfunctory words. “Call yourself a cab. I
have something else to attend to and won''t be able to see you home.”
Susan nodded and watched as Tobias'' Maserati sped off in a cloud of dust. She felt quite conflicted
inside about it as they were obviously headed in the same direction.
Late at night, Skr heard the jingle of the keys upon the coffee table. Her eyes peeled open when she
felt Tobias'' arms wrap around her, and she replied groggily in a childlike tone, “You''re back.”
The scent of tobo off Tobias'' body tickled her nostrils before she fell back into the sheets anew.
Unwilling to reopen her eyes again, she allowed her weariness to ovee her, and soon, she drifted
off to sleep.
Tobias had intended to say something to Skr just now, but seeing that she was already sleeping
soundly, his attention turned to her phone instead. The disy was still lit, and next to the pillow sat her
blue-tooth earpiece.
Skr was still watching the Livestream. Tobias regarded the man inside the phone and thought the
There were a few thousand people still connected to the channel while the man was thanking his
supporters for their contributions. Skr herself was ranked amongst the most ardent supporters.
She had specially reduced the size of the interface when watching the Livestream as she was
concerned about being too carried away with mashing on the “like” button.
Tobias did not change out of his suit and instead devoted a considerable amount of his time to studying
the contents of the channel. Afterward, he cklisted the streamer so that she would not be able to see
him anymore.
As he recalled, Madelyn had described the buyer''s remorse Skr experienced after thetter gifted
the male streamer a donation valued at one thousand. I''d say, she should be blighted by remorse and
deservingly so.
Being as stingy as she was, Skr had never bought him any gifts before. Instead, she went on to
splurge on other men. So the more Tobias thought about it, the more it irked him.
Skr did not see Tobias around when she mbered up. The sun was high outside and having
awoken very early, she could still hear the dogs barking from another distant corner of the residential
area.
She distinctly remembered Tobias hugging herst night, but when she checked to her right, there was
no evidence of anyone havingid there. It felt cold when she ran her fingers over it, and that raised
doubts as to whether she had been dreaming.
Tobias did not even return... The dream I had was just too surreal.
Downstairs, Madelyn was in the kitchen making breakfast and the fragrance of the oatmeal could be
picked up from afar.
Skr went to the kitchen to grab the cold milk from the fridge and tossed it into the microwave. “Did
Mr. Forde backst night?”
“I went upstairs after you finished the pumpkin soup and did note back down, so I don''t know if
anyone came in,” Madelyn replied.
“Not even in the morning?” prompted Skr.
Madelyn''s biological clock was urate to a tee. Her routine involved being up by five and freshening
herself up quickly before heading into the kitchen to make breakfast.
She then recalled vaguely hearing a vehicr engine being started up when she came out and
supposed that it must be around that time that Tobias left.

“Now that you mention it, I remember that it should be just past five, before sunrise. I''d say, it''s really
tough on Mr. Ford. Coming inte and heading out early every single day the way he does. Only now
do I understand how difficult it is to run a business with so many things to take care of day in, day out.
Whenever Mr. Ford is at home, he never seemed to run out of calls to make, and every time I tidied up
the study—”
The “ding” from the microwave indicating that the milk was warmed cut off Madelyn''s incessant chatter.
Skr poured herself a ss and gazed vacuously beyond the windows. It was already past six but the
sky had yet to bepletely illuminated. Dark and gloomy was the mood outside.
That being said, what she experiencedst night was not a dream. Tobias had been back, but it was
not clear what he was so preupied with that he needed to leave the house that early.
