Chapter 72
Tobias coldly retorted, “I’m disappointed at how ungrateful you are.”
It was obvious to Skr that she had worn out his patience.
After she left the cafeteria, Tobias continued to follow her, leaving one meter between them.
They stopped at the new cafeteria building, which just had its foundationsid.
Skr remembered that it was Tobias that funded the building.
She asked him, “Did you promise the principal to donate this building to the school as a condition for my
admission?”
Tobias smiled smugly. “That’s right. Your school fees are… expensive.”
Skr finally verified the ims. I’ve owed Tobias too much. How could I ever repay him in this lifetime?
However, what Tobias withheld from Skr was that the principal had no right to demand anything from
him.
Even if he wanted to enroll a dog, the principal wouldn’t even dare refuse him.
Actually, he donated the building on his own ord. But, he used it as a sneaky lie to shackle her even
further.
Skr scratched her head. “Since I can never repay you, I will not try to do so. You can take it as a show
of goodwill to the poor.”
Tobias frowned. He had assumed Skr would be touched but didn’t expect her to use it as an excuse to
default on her debt.
He inly remarked, “Money is indeed not important to me. But how are you going to return my stolen
heart?”
Skr pretended not to hear him as she put on her earphones.
By the time Skr ended work at the cafe, it was almost time for her curfew. Hence, she quickly ran back
to her dormitory.
When she arrived at the entrance, a dark shadow loomed upon her.
Before she had the chance to scream, someone covered her mouth from behind.
She only managed to calm herself down when she caught a whiff of the familiar white sandalwood
scent. Tobias is still here.
Under the dim light of the streemp, Tobias let go of Skr’s mouth and ced his hands around her
waist, pulling her into his embrace. “I came a long way to your school. Unfortunately, my car has broken
down. Not only do I not have a ce to stay, but I also lost my wallet and cards. Tonight, only you can
take me in.”
Skr elbowed Tobias’ chest but felt like she had hit a concrete wall. He didn’t feel the pain at all.
Skr seethed as she replied, “You can pay with your phone.”
Tobias countered, “I don’t know how to because I have not done it before.”
After letting Skr go, he showed her his phone to prove that he was telling the truth.
Skr took his phone to check and realized he didn’t have any payment apps installed.N?velDrama.Org owns this.
She felt as if she was dreaming. The filthy rich Tobias was pretending to be as poor as her.
Just before she returned his phone, she saw an unread message from Tanya.
It read: Mom is asking you toe home earlier. She is waiting for you.
Skr stuffed his phone back at him. “I don’t care about you. You can call your driver and get him to pick
you up.”
After he switched off his phone, Tobias threw it in the garbage bin in a nonchnt manner. “I’ve lost my
phone now. What am I to do?”
However, Skr had turned away and was about to leave as it was two more minutes to her curfew.
She saw thedy in charge of the dormitory walking toward the main gate with a key in her hands.
Skr called out, “Wait, I’m still not in yet!”
Tobias stepped in front of her to block her way. “If you don’t take me in, I’m afraid I’ll have to sit
downstairs the whole night. It will be extremely embarrassing.”
Skr was incensed at how a cold person could do something so irresponsible.
Meanwhile, she watched with widened eyes as thedy in charge of the dormitory locked the main gate.
Now, even she couldn’t get back in.
Taking a deep breath, Skr exined, “I have spent all my money on the dormitory fee and food. I only
have a hundred with me now so I can’t take you in either.”
Tobias replied calmly, “I’m not particr about where I stay. I’m fine as long as there’s a bed.”
