Chapter 554


    When Skr saw the wrinkles at the corner of Idania’s eyes, she reminded herself to apply her eye


    cream every night. After all, she might look worse than Idania by the time she turned thirty.


    “Tobias and I used toe herest time. He doesn’t really like pork. Hence, he enjoys the fried beef


    cutlets served here as it suits his tastes perfectly.” Idania let out a gentle smile as she handed Skr the


    menu with one hand.


    Receiving the menu politely, Skr raised an eyebrow. “You probably haven’t eaten with him in a while.


    Now, he stays away from oily food. Just a few days ago, we went to have beef wellington. I didn’t enjoy it


    but he liked it very much. Anyway, he doesn’t like me visiting fly-infested restaurants like this. After all, I


    have a weak stomach and he worries that I’ll get sick.”


    Idania’s smile slowly faded. “One feels blissful when one is dining with a loved one. It doesn’t matter if it’s


    in a ssy restaurant or a dirty one.”

    Skr nodded with a smile. “That’s true. That’s why he enjoys the spaghetti I make. Anyway, I’m not


    familiar with this ce, so you should order on my behalf. Don’t order whatever he likes. Instead, order


    whatever he hates the most.”


    “How can two people with such different tastes live together? Tobias and I have simr preferences for


    food. He likes his food with lighter seasoning.” Idania squinted her eyes at Skr as she insisted on


    ordering Tobias’ favorite food.


    She wasn’t lying to Skr. Tobias used to visit the restaurant very often with her. At that time, he was so


    busy that he didn’t care about what he ate, as long as he could fill his stomach. Neither did he have the


    patience to waste time on the kind of fine dining which Skr had just mentioned.


    Hence, Idania had suffered through the difficult days of old alongside him. However, Skr was now


    enjoying the fruits of theirbor. After having achieved wealth and influence, Tobias had reced her


    with someone younger and prettier.


    Nevertheless, she had faith that the memories Tobias and her shared were irreceable. Therefore, she


    considered Skr to just be a fling of his. Or else, there was no reason for him not to make their


    rtionship public after so long.


    Skr replied confidently, “I won’t change my taste for someone else. I will not be happy if I have to lose


    myself for the sake of being with someone else. Ms. Gand, my purpose here today isn’t to discuss


    what my boyfriend’s tastes are nor what he likes to eat.”


    From the moment she received her call, Idania knew that Skr didn’te with friendly intentions.


    Thinking back tost night, she figured Skr must have seen the message she sent to Tobias.


    Is that the reason why Tobias didn’t reply to my messages? From the beginning, Idania had never


    expected Tobias to reply to her messages. Putting aside the fact that they had broken up for such a long


    time, Tobias behaved the same way even when they were still together.


    In fact, he would disappear for no reason for a long time. He wouldn’t contact her nor reply to her


    messages at all. Hence, it was impossible for her to feel secure with a boyfriend like that.


    Consequently, it was rather frustrating to be with someone like that. However, after breaking up, she was


    utterly heartbroken and couldn’t forget him still.


    Amidst the quiet but incendiary atmosphere, Idania meekly stared into Skr’s eyes and saw the mes


    raging within them.


    “Though I’m a few years older than you, you can call me Idania. I don’t want to make enemies of you


    since there’s hardly any animosity between us. Ms. Jones, please go ahead with what you havee to


    say.”


    Skr hated it when Idania tried to y victim when she was obviously the one who started to cling onto


    Tobias. Now, those not in the know would assume that Idania was the one who had suffered some


    injustice at Skr’s hands.


    When the food was served, neither of them touched anything. Skr couldn’t bring herself to dine at the


    same table as Idania.


    She raised her eyebrow. “Let me be upfront then. Stop contacting Tobias as he already has me. If you


    are sick, please get yourself treated. My boyfriend can’t cure you because he isn’t a doctor. You should


    go to the hospital and get yourself checked up. Otherwise, who will you me in the event that


    something happens to you?”


    Just as Idania’s eyes widened, she held onto her chest while her face turned pale.


    As Skr had graduated from drama school, she could easily tell when someone was acting. From the


    looks of it now, Idania seemed to be trying too hard.
