Chapter 765 Acting Weak


    “Is the rumor about your brother and Skr true?”


    Sheldon wanted to answer but immediately held back. Instead, he responded, “How would I know?


    You can check out Twitter.”


    Smiling, Lilian said, “I don''t think it''s possible. I''ll be more convinced if it''s your brother and Saorise. I


    mean, look at how many huge posters of Saorise there are in your shopping mall!”


    Sheldon could not provide an exnation for that as he rarely heard Tobias talk about Saorise.


    Skr had no one to pick her up. The only car that waited for her was the organizer''s ck MPV,


    which broke down right after it arrived, so she had to wait for the next one.


    The sky was dark, and the temperature was dropping. It had started to drizzle. Although it was


    already spring, it did not bring warmer weather.


    Hugging herself by the shoulders, Skr was so cold that she stamped her feet.


    At the door, she saw two female employees who had just joined thepany that day. Both of them


    had their husbands driving a BMW over to pick them up, and there were also children in the cars.


    For a moment, she was a little envious that the wife who worked overtime was picked up by her


    husband.


    Yet, she was still standing there eagerly waiting for the MPV, with half of her body drenched from


    the rain.


    Leaning in, Penelope gave her some advice as she whispered, “This is the perfect time for you to


    act weak and vulnerable to test his response. If I were you, I would call Tobias now and ask him to


    pick me up.”


    “I can''t let so many people here find out about my rtionship with Tobias, can I?”


    “Silly girl, I''m just asking you to call him to test his attitude, not to get him to reallye to pick you


    up.”


    Without thinking further, Skr was convinced by what Penelope said. She really did not make any


    excessive demands on Tobias usually, so she thought that getting him to pick her up would be an


    easy request.


    “Could youe pick me up? I got wet from the rain.”


    Tobias, who was chatting with udia, asked without hesitation, “Where are you? I''ming over.”


    Before Skr could tell him the address, another MPV sent by the organizer had already arrived.


    Knowing Tobias'' attitude, Skr felt that she had been too pessimistic and thought badly of Tobias.


    Hence, she hurriedly replied, “It''s okay now. A car is here to pick me up. I''ll be home soon.”


    “Okay. Be safe.”


    After hanging up the phone, Tobias saw that it was almost time for him to go back before Skr did.


    udia, who had a great ear, overheard everything that Skr said on the phone and criticized,


    “How can a celebrity have no one to pick her up? She even asks you to pick her up when it''s


    already sote. Does she think you don''t need to rest?”


    Tobias patted his mother on the shoulder. “I guess something happened over there. Anyway, I''m


    heading home. You should go to bed early. Didn''t you make an appointment with your friend to y


    cards tomorrow morning? Win big, Mom.”


    Sighing, udiamented, “What''s the use of winning more money when there is such a prodigal


    son in the family? Sheldon has spent too much money recently. You should make time to have a


    talk with him.”

    “He is already an adult and knows what he wants to do. It''s useless for me to intervene. He can


    spend it as he likes. It''s not too much money anyway.”


    The only regret udia had was spoiling Sheldon too much. Tobias had also been indulging him so


    much that he would even clean up the huge mess Sheldon left behind.


    “His money is only spent on women. Now I think Winnie is much better. I heard that he recently


    hooked up with an online influencer. I really don''t understand him.”


    Tobias did not spend too much exining to udia. To him, Sheldon''s romance was short-lived as


    he changed partners frequently.
