Chapter 327


    By then, Tobias had reached the limits of his chivalry. Lowering down the windows, he lit a cigarette and


    rested his arm on the car door. He looked out the window to show that he had no intention of sending


    Lina in.


    Finally, Skr offered out of courtesy, “I’ll walk you in. What’s there to be afraid of anyway?”


    When he saw Skr preparing to get down, Tobias threw his cigarette away and drove into the


    compound instead.


    Lina was disappointed by Tobias’ actions. If not for Skr, he wasn’t even going to escort her in after all.


    After walking Lina up, the environment reminded Skr of being chased out of her rented ce after


    Meredith’s death. It could not get any worse than that.


    Before Lina entered her home, Skr called out to her, “When you invited me out for tea, did you really


    mean to catch up for old times sake, or was it just a pretext to see my boyfriend instead?”


    Skr never liked beating around the bush and preferred to be candid. Lina’s dubious actions had


    caused her to doubt her intentions. When Tobias was driving, Lina looked at him as if she was ready to


    give herself to him.


    Stunned by Skr’s question, Lina covered her mouth in shock. “Skr, what are you talking about?


    Since when did you be so mean?”


    Skr had never expected the word “mean” to be used to describe her. All this while, she had never


    been feisty as the rage in her had long been expended by her birth family.


    Skr replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, I don’t mean anything. I’m happy to be reunited with you again.


    It’s just that I remembered how happy it was during our school days. Remember, don’t fall in love with


    someone you’re not supposed to. Or else, you will regret it.”


    Instead of taking Skr’s advice, Lina felt that she had changed into someone who was mean and petty.


    Not wanting to intensify the awkwardness, Skr added with a smile, “I’m just kidding. I wanted to see


    how you would react when I scared you.”


    However, Lina couldn’t tell which of them was real.


    As Tobias grew impatient with waiting, he honked a few times. Just when Skr entered the car, she


    suddenly noticed a bracelet on the seat. She picked it up while remembering that Lina didn’t wear any.


    “Do you think just because you’re driving a Porsche the honk won’t disturb the residents? Tobias, since


    when have you lost your civility?”


    Skr then flung the bracelet at his face. Tobias didn’t flinch as this was the second time she threw


    something at him. At that moment, he began to lose his patience.


    “Whose bracelet is this? It looks like an imitation given how light it is and probably isn’t worth much.”


    “It’s your friend’s. Other than that, I don’t know,” Tobias exined calmly.


    “She wasn’t wearing it. In fact, there was nothing on her wrist at all.” Skr didn’t believe it was Lina’s.


    Furthermore, this was the second time she found something belonging to a woman inside the car. The


    first was lipstick, and then a bracelet.


    “In that case, I’m equally stumped. If you really can’t find the owner, just take it that I have a fetish for


    wearing female essories.”


    Tobias never liked to lie. Besides, he really didn’t know who it belonged to.


    Skr warned him, “It’s not that you like wearing women’s things, but more like you enjoy feeling


    jealous.”Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    “Are you nning on making me jealous? If you cheat on me, I’ll break your legs.” Tobias finally lost his


    patience with Skr’s snide remarks.
