Chapter 475


    Just then, Tobias came down from upstairs. He was still wearing the same light gray casual wear he had


    on before Skr left home earlier. It seemed like he hadn’t left the house the entire day.


    After changing into slippers, Skr went upstairs with Tobias. Her footsteps were heavy, and her


    thoughts were written all over her face.

    As Tobias could easily tell that Skr was upset, he lifted her chin with one hand and asked, “Do you not


    like Madelyn? Even though she’s a little chatty, she’s an efficient worker and has a warm personality.


    She’s a great cook as well. I’ll get her to make a good meal for us tonight.”


    Skr sat down in front of her dressing table and removed her earrings. When she looked at herself in


    the mirror, she noticed that her makeup started creasing as she was so busy the entire day that she did


    not have time to touch up.


    “I’m fine with any arrangement you make,” the woman replied cidly.


    Tobias, who was standing behind Skr, noticed the displeasure on her face. He leaned forward, and


    putting his face next to hers, he said, “You can tell me right away if you’re not happy with this


    arrangement. You know I’m bad at reading thoughts.”


    Skr met the man’s gaze and noticed a hint of impatience in his eyes. “I just haven’t been resting well


    lately and keep having nightmares. Do you have any solution for that?”


    “I’ll get you a crystal bracelet. Crystals have calming properties. After wearing it, you should stop having


    nightmares. However, it might also be something psychological, and oveing that aspect would


    depend on yourself,” Tobias replied.


    Upon hearing his words, Skr knew that Valerie did not lie to her. Her crystal bracelet was indeed given


    to her by Tobias.


    “It’s the thought that counts. I don’t think I’ll need that bracelet. I guess there’s nothing I need to be afraid


    of since I haven’t done anything against my conscience.”


    Tobias moved towards one side and said inly, “You were the one who asked if I had a solution, but


    you rejected it. Well, I can’t help you then.”


    Skr picked up a cotton pad and started removing her eye makeup slowly while asking, “Would you


    allow me to film a rape scene?”


    Obviously, Tobias was no longer paying attention to the woman’s words and replied, “Were you thinking


    of don’t that tonight? I can consider that, but I’m not very fond of these acts now that I’m getting older.”


    The corners of Skr’s lips curved into a smile as she said, “I know you prefer women removing your


    clothes and having them doing all the work as it feels good for you. I’m sorry that I wasn’t sensible


    enough and always make you exert yourself.”


    Tobias frowned and replied, “What’s wrong with you today? You’ve been speaking in such a sarcastic


    manner. If you’ve suffered grievances and you’re venting on me right now, I’m sorry, but I’m not the right


    person for that.”


    Madelyn, who was outside the door, could clearly hear the two of them arguing. As such, even though


    she already had her knuckles on the door, she did not dare to knock.


    “It’s not easy to be the woman of a rich man,” the housekeeper muttered to herself.


    Seeing that Skr was upset, Tobias started kissing her on her lips softly. He was so gentle that she


    could feel her nerves tingle as her body went weak. Her heart was pounding madly, and her mind went


    nk as she gasped for air.


    It wasn’t often that Tobias kissed her in such a manner, gently yet firmly and passionately. It was as if he


    wasforting her while coaxing her to remove her clothes.


    “Did I offend you? I don’t remember doing any of that,” the man asked as he traced his hand down


    Skr’s blouse.


    Even though Skr ced her hands in front of her chest instinctively, Tobias had still managed to lift up


    her blouse, and at the same time, removed her bra.


    Finally, Skr could not help but ask, “What’s the rtionship between you and Valerie?”


    Tobias lost his mood at once when he heard that. He picked up Skr’s blouse from the floor and put it


    on her before replying, “What rumors did you hear? We don’t have any kind of rtionship. Skr, I


    remember telling you that I would never cross the line with people who work with me, including my


    secretaries or business partners. I’ve told you the same thing multiple times. Why do you have to


    question me on that? Do you think it’s even meaningful to throw a tantrum and harp over such senseless


    matters?”
