    Chapter 708 Provide For You For The Rest Of Your Life


    It was clear that Tobias had little understanding of women''s emotions. Often, women preferred to hear


    ttering liespared to the truth as they wished to be praised as if they were ethereal beauties.


    Skr replied, “Nope. I''m on a diet. I want my eyes and brows to look prettier.”


    Tobias could sense her jealousy, but he did not understand why she reacted in such a manner. I was


    just giving my honest opinion.


    After instructing Skr to wait by the door, Tobias retrieved a carton of milk from the refrigerator. He


    ced it in the microwave and heated it for approximately thirty seconds before handing it to her. “You


    need to replenish some protein. I''ll drive you today. Where would you like to go?”


    Skr epted the offer without any reservations.


    With the cold air sweeping in the previous night, the outside temperature abruptly dropped to zero


    degrees. As they made their way to the car, Skr instinctively hunched her shoulders, shivering from


    the piercing cold.


    Tobias had not anticipated such extreme cold, especially with the biting morning wind that seemed to


    prate one''s bones. I should have warmed up the car first before asking Skr toe out.


    Regardless of how luxurious the car was, without the warm air circting inside, it felt as frigid as an


    ice cer. As Skr entered the car, her body shivered uncontrobly.


    Despite not being known for being talkative, Tobias could not resist remarking, “You always dress so


    lightly. When you''re older, you''ll regret it when illnessese knocking. You may not realize it now in


    your youth, but you''ll regret itter.”


    Skr could not help but be reminded of her grandmother by his remark, and it made her ponder if that


    was how elderly people tended to nag all the time.


    Due to her slender physique, Skrcked the instion of body fat that could help keep her warm in


    the cold weather.


    Tobias removed his coat and draped it over Skr''sp, leaving himself with only a shirt on.

    Skr picked the coat up and returned it to him. “Won''t you feel even colder if you don''t have this? If


    you get sick, there won''t be anyone to look after you.”


    She impulsively covered her mouth, realizing the potential impact of her words on the person before


    her.


    Tobias was not oblivious. He heard every word clearly.


    It seemed he was unperturbed by what she said. “It doesn''t matter if no one takes care of me. I''ve


    grown ustomed to it over the years. I''ve faced illness numerous times, and I''ve always managed on


    my own.”


    Skr quickly tried to rectify the situation, offering reassurance, “I was just making a casual remark. I


    would never do that. Oh, I once came across a news story about a man and a woman who had been


    dating for about six months. The man suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning, rendering him unable


    to eat, drink, move, or speak—an unconscious state. Throughout it all, the woman cared for him


    diligently. It''s a truly touching tale of love.”


    Tobias adjusted the car''s heater to its maximum setting and, after changing gears, held the steering


    wheel with one hand while tightly gripping Skr''s hand with the other. “If you were in her position,


    what would you do?”


    Having read the news and pondered simr scenarios before, Skr responded without hesitation, “I


    would undoubtedly stay and care for him. I can''t just abandon him since I care about him.”


    However, Tobias'' demeanor remained indifferent. “Even regr couples can grow weary of each other


    after a lifetime of marriage and raising children, let alone dealing with someone like him. No one will be


    touched by your action, except for yourself. You''ll simply be wasting your entire life on such a man.”


    Skr inserted a straw into the warm milk, and while biting down on it, she said, “Your thoughts terrify


    me. I guess I''ll have to prioritize taking good care of myself and avoiding unfortunate circumstances,


    just in case you leave me during a difficult time.”


    Tobias borated on his reasoning. “We mustn''t be overly na?ve if we want to survive in this world. I''m


    referring to human nature in general, so there is no need for you to fret. Perhaps, my sole redeeming


    quality is my financial stability, so don''t worry, I won''t abandon you. Even if you were to lose


    consciousness, I would remain by your side, caring for you throughout your lifetime.”
