Chapter 128


    Zoey’s beautiful eyes narrowed ever so slightly. She felt as though her heart was crushed into pieces.


    That was the first time in the years she had known Tobias where he introduced a woman as his girlfriend.


    He had never even publicly acknowledged his rtionship with Tanya and had always remained aloof


    about it.


    When Tanya Hanson bullied her, Tobias did his best to defend her and outrightly sided with her.


    The memory of Tanya fuming was still fresh in Zoey’s mind.


    Laura walked over to serve them drinks. She first poured some for Tobias, then Zoey. When she.


    reached Skr, she asked, “Is this alright for you?”


    Skr frowned. “Yes, this is fine.”


    Zoey took a seat on the couch as sorrow began to engulf her. Disappointment was an emotion she was


    familiar with when it came to Tobias.

    When she first heard of Tobias’s engagement, she was broken-hearted.


    She was unable to ept the fact that the man she had pined for all these years was going to marry


    someone else. Despite the fact that their rtionship remained stagnant for years because Tobias only


    regarded her as a sister, she still hoped for more.


    No matter how hard she tried to fight for his love, nothing could alter the reality. All she could do was


    head to Italy to heal her wounds. When she caught wind that his engagement was called off, she was


    over the moon and immediately bought tickets to return home.


    All these years, she had been unwilling to give up. To her, as long as she put in the effort, sparks were


    bound to fly between the two of them. She even made a wild guess that the abrupt canction of the


    engagement was because of her.


    s, she was proven wrong. Tobias had abandoned his fiancée for a new conquest.


    “Tobias, I want to stay here for a period of time. I’m not going home! You won’t mind, right?” Zoey asked.


    Tobias frowned slightly and replied, “Everywhere else is fine. Why are you adamant about staying here?”


    Putting on an innocent and piteous look, she stared at Tobias with teary eyes and responded, “I’m used


    to staying here. I don’t want to move. Or are you nning to stay here with your girlfriend?”


    Skr then chimed in with a bright smile on her face. “Don’t worry. I won’t stay here often. But I don’t


    have the right to make the decision.”


    Zoey studied her carefully from top to toe.


    Her delicate features and wless face entuated her beauty. Every smile she shed was enchanting


    and alluring. Even Zoey was impressed by her exceptional looks.


    Then she took a peek at Tobias, whose face was still expressionless.


    “Do what you want. I’ll leave this ce to you. Anyway, I’m going to send Skr somewhere near her


    school.” Fishing out his keys from his pocket, he tossed them to Zoey.


    As she reached out to receive the keys, she felt dismayed. After shooting Skr a death stare, she


    red at their intertwined hands. Is she doing this on purpose to spite me?


    Upon leaving International Garden, Skr promptly let go of Tobias’s hand.


    He raised his hand and smirked. “How realistic of you. You were holding onto my hand so tightly.”


    “Hmm… Sister? Thankfully, I’ve been staying in school. I didn’t know I was staying in someone else’s


    house.”


    Tobias lifted an eyebrow. He disliked having to exin himself, but something about Skr’s manner told


    him that she was going to get the wrong idea if he did not rify the matter.
