Chapter 43


    Then, Tobias walked toward them before cing an arm on Skr’s shoulder very naturally and pulling


    her into an embrace. “I’m not sure if I heard you clearly, but did you just say you wanted to give my


    girlfriend hell for the rest of her life? Don’t you think that’s a little too cruel of you, Mr. Jones?”


    Skr suddenly felt her nose tingle as an unfamiliar emotion began to build up within her.


    At this moment, she felt like a wandering boat that had finally found a port where she could dock. The


    strangest thing was that it was this devil who made her feel this way.


    Thomas waspletely dumbfounded. Skr is… Tobias Ford’s girlfriend? The Tobias Ford? Am I


    dreaming?


    Sheldon was even more taken aback. His gaze instantly fell on Skr. As far as I know, this is the first


    time he’s ever called a woman his girlfriend.


    As Thomas remained in a daze, Tobias stared at him with his cier eyes.


    “I’m talking to you. Should I take silence as eptance?”


    Thomas took a deep breath and suppressed his fear. “You’ve got it wrong, Mr. Ford. I never said that.”


    Skr frowned slightly. To her, Thomas had always been a hot-tempered and heartless man who had no


    qualms crossing any big shot.


    Yet, he was now cowering before Tobias in fear and even trembled while speaking.


    Skr grew increasingly curious. Who on earth is Tobias, and how powerful is Ford Group?


    With a crease of her brows, Skr leaned into Tobias’ arms. “I don’t want to see him anymore. Can you


    tell him to leave?”


    Thomas’ expression took aplete turn, and he gazed at Skr with nothing but affection. “Come


    home and have dinner with us sometime. I’ll prepare all your favorite dishes.”


    Skr didn’t understand how Thomas could put on an act so skillfully to the point that it was disgusting.


    Not wanting to see that face any longer, she walked to the end of the hallway and opened the window to


    get some air. The look on her face was as though she had put on an imprable mask that concealed


    all signs of sorrow.


    I won’t let anyone take me down again.


    “Aren’t you going to see your mother?” Tobias ced a hand on Skr’s waist from behind.


    Skr turned and heaved a sigh of relief upon realizing that Thomas and Irene had left.


    Had Tobias not been here, that couple truly could have been able to put a halt to her mother’s treatment.


    Skr shook her head. “Thanks for getting me out of that situation. I won’t be seeing her, though. I’ve


    already taken a peek at her through the window, and she’s sleeping. She might get too worked up if she


    wakes up and sees me.”


    Thanks to all of today’s events, Skr truly felt awful.


    Tobias took off his coat and draped them over her shoulders. “The wind’s really cold. If you’re not going


    to see her, you should head back.”


    With a stagger, Sheldon leaned against the wall and pinched his thigh. Is this a dream?


    He actually gave her his coat? Hell’s going to break loose if anyone at home finds out about this!


    Sheldon felt sorry for Tobias. Mom’s been threatening him to marry Tanya. What’s going to happen now


    that he has a girlfriend?


    After that, Skr followed Tobias into the car.


    But the moment they got in, the man pressed her down against the leather seat.


    Tobias gazed at Skr as she tried to open the car window. Is this guy nuts?


    He’s acting like this even when the driver’s in here too!

    “Didn’t I say I’d take care of this? Why did you insist oning over yourself? Do you think I’m ying


    around with you?” Tobias growled as he held the woman by her jaw.


    Skr struggled relentlessly beneath him to no avail.


    “She’s my mother! Why can’t I see her?” she insisted, notprehending why Tobias was mad.


    This man is way too unpredictable!
