Chapter 738 Let Us Go Home


    As for the specific amount, Tobias felt that he did not need to go into such detail with Skr.


    Soon, Tobias arrived at Harbourside. The night breeze was chilly, and as it hit him right in the face,


    even his breath condensed into clouds of white fog in the air.


    Sitting down on the stone steps, he lifted his eyes. He cast his gaze at Skr, who was standing by


    the window and had also spotted him.


    She waved frantically as though afraid he would not see her.


    In truth, he was very much earlier though she had told him toe an hourter.


    As her boyfriend, it went without saying that he should go upstairs and greet her family. However, he


    merely sat on the stone steps downstairs and smoked.


    She did not me him for it since it was a matter of reciprocity. Choosing to be a coward that year,


    she had decided not to visit the Fords.


    It was understandable that he did not head upstairs as he was averse to her family.


    He was not acting high and mighty, looking down on them for being poor, but he found it annoying.


    Skr whispered into Miranda''s ear, “I''ll be leaving first, Mom. Tobias is here to pick me up.


    Besides, I have to attend the promotional event for my new movie''s premiere tomorrow, so I can''t


    stay toote.”


    Every time Miranda heard Tobias'' name, she would be exceedingly careful, afraid that she would do


    something to displease him.


    In reality, everything she did infuriated the man.


    “Why don''t you ask him toe up for a visit and have some hot chocte? Are you not going to


    continue the tradition of drinking hot chocte at midnight? We should have it as a family during


    Christmas, with everyone gathered together. Then, the following year will be a blessed year.”


    Miranda did not want to allow Skr to leave, for their rtives were already preparing hot


    chocte in the kitchen.


    Knowing that Skr loved cinnamon hot chocte the most, she even took out some cinnamon


    sticks from the cupboard when they were preparing the ingredients in the kitchen, nning to make


    some cinnamon hot chocte for Skr separately.


    Unfortunately, her sister-inw, Sharon, objected, iming that Eva was allergic to cinnamon down


    to the smell of it.


    For the sake of her younger brother, Miranda did not argue with her despite having seen Eva eating


    half a slice of pumpkin pie.


    Eva could not possibly be allergic to cinnamon. In other words, Sharon was tantly lying.


    It was clear as day that she was petty and did not want Miranda to make a special hot chocte for


    Skr alone.


    Meanwhile, Skr had already grabbed her bag. Eva, who sat on the couch munching on chips,


    walked over to the window. Sure enough, she caught sight of her employer downstairs.


    Ford Group is considered a gigantic business with tens of millions of employees in the entire


    country. Yet, its CEO, who holds leadership over them all, is so free to brave the biting wind and


    wait for his woman downstairs. What a pity that I don''t even get a chance to draw close to him when


    I''ve been working by his side for so long!This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Skr rushed downstairs. Immediately, Tobias'' figure in the darkness entered her line of sight. His


    tall and broad silhouette made her feel as though he was the warmth she sought during winter.


    Throwing herself into his arms, she lifted her eyes and gazed at him lovingly. “You were also the


    one who came to pick me upst year. And now, a year has passed,” she murmured.


    Tobias had already forgotten the events that transpiredst year. Well, she''s right. Time really flies.


    In the blink of an eye, we''ve already been together for such a long time.


    At first, he did not bother keeping track of the time he dated her. After all, he only took an interest in


    her out of a sense of novelty, finding her very much like a porcupine with sharp quills all over her.


    Gradually, he found a sense of belonging with her. At the very least, he knew he had a safe harbor


    that would leave a light burning for him every night.


    Nheless, that was a bit of a delusion, for Skr went on business trips even more than he did.


    As such, the light at their home was often turned off.


    Tobias kissed Skr on the forehead, his lips cold from the bitter wind and icy air.


    “Let''s go home.”
