Chapter 800 See It In Your Eyes
Penelope once said, “You can never hide your love for someone in your gaze. The rest of the world will fade away when you''re there, and they''ll only
have eyes for you.”
Skr was shaken. She unexpectedly felt difited when Tobias nced at her in such a way.
“Did you switch out the hairdryer?”
Tobias chuckled. "I don''t understand why you insist on using your old one. Aren''t you scared of electrical faults? I got you a new one since I noticed it
has been on your wishlist for some time now.”
Skr recalled seeing piles of parcels in the foyer, some already unsealed upon arriving home.
She''d been perplexed as she had no memory of purchasing all that.
“Did you buy everything on my wish list?”
“I came upon it by chance when you left your phone on the bed before going on my business trip. I took it as you giving me a subtle hint. After all, isn''t
it perfectly normal to do such things for a girlfriend? You should add more expensive items to your list. by the way. I still can''t believe you''d wear
shorts that cost neen ny out.
Skr wished for nothing more than to bury herself underground at her miserly habits being exposed.
Perhaps she wouldn''t have turned out like this if she hadn''t mistrusted an unreliable investment manager and didn''t have a spendthrift mother.
She plopped down next to Tobias and rested her head on his shoulder. She always detected the fragrance of white sandalwood whenever he was
close. It would have been perfect if it weren''t mixed with the scent of cigarette smoke
What she said next turned his mood sour. "I''ll pay you back once I have enough money. Don''t feel upset because this is just who I am. I don’t feel
comfortable spending the money of others. That includes the one million that my mum owes you!”
Tobias wrapped his arm around her shoulders. This ungrateful one still refuses to rely on me despite knowing how unbearable I find it.
He disliked how independent Skr was. Yet they were two sides of the same coin, to a certain extent
‘I''m not just anybody, you know? There''s no need to have such strict boundaries in ce. Imagine how exhausting it''ll be for both of us. Don''t tell me
you did this in your past rtionships as well. That would be a no-go for sure.”Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.

She had always been the one paying the bills for that good-for-nothing Jeremy.
Skr didn''t understand why Tobias wouldn''t go all the way when doing her a favor. He only helped her unbox a single parcel when a mountain of
them remained.
“You should have opened all the parcels for me. There''s so many at the door that they''re blocking the way.”
Tobias stared at the pile of parcels
uneasily. “Bo it yourself when you re
free. I den’ t have the patience for
these: “What a waste of my time. Do
youk know what an ordeal it iSwith
how securely they''re packed?”

Skr understood that this was typical behavior for men. Tobias was considered kind enough to have helped her with unboxing two to three
packages.
Tobias scooped a bowl of piping hot lentil soup from the pot and ced it on the coffee table to cool before serving it to Skr.
Skr had tried the pistachio and vani-vored macarons on the TV show for their holiday special.
She would have tasted more than that if Molly hadn''t kept a close eye on her.
“Aren''t you going back to your mom''s? You usually do so during the festive season.”
Tobias had not informed udia that he’d returned from his business trip. She still thought he was in Newcove and couldn''t return home in time.
Otherwise, he would be expected to attend a reunion gathering at the Ford residence.

Sheldon and his girlfriend were going steady. Hence, he was meeting her parents and spending Thanksgiving with them at their home in Jipsdale
Tobias stared at Skr silently. She seems slightly repulsed by me.
Nevertheless, he understood that this was because udia had been pressuring Skr by going on a spiel whenever they met.
