Chapter 25
Tobias didn’t usually wear glasses, except during work or driving.
That was because Sheldon often said that Tobias looked like a well-disguised pervert when he had his glasses on.
“Tanya’s downstairs, so why are you still here?” Sheldon sat down on the sofa with his legs wide apart.
“Why should I be there? To compliment on her wedding dress?” Tobias replied casually.
Sheldon deeply sympathized with him.
He had met a lot of women, so he had long known that Tanya was not all that she portrayed.
Although she was from a prominent family, the Hanson family was nothing compared to the Ford family.
Two years ago, Claudia had a heart attack and fainted on the ground. It was Tanya who saved her life.
Ever since then, Tanya took the opportunity to butter Claudia up until the latter grew very fond of her.
Claudia wanted Tanya to become her daughter-in-law. Tobias objected to it at first, but he was a filial son, so he had no choice but to compromise in the end.
Sheldon then proceeded to ask, “Do you know Skylar Jones?”
At this, Tobias looked up. “Why do you know this name?”
“While I was having a drink with some friends, Avery told me that she saw you with her sister some time ago. She said that Skylar has been doing ‘that kind’ of business when she was in school, charging two
hundred for one round, so her reputation was terrible. After thinking about it, I don’t think a woman like this will be associated with you,” replied Sheldon.
Upon hearing that, Tobias’ originally calm expression turned cold as he warned, “Don’t say these things in front of me again.”
Sensing the odd atmosphere in the study, Sheldon drew in a sharp breath. But I didn’t say anything. I was just having a chat.
He pursed his lips and teased, “Her name sounds nice, though. But Avery has crossed the line. How can she say something like that?”
Tobias narrowed his eyes. “There are only two things you need to do now – open the door and get out.” Knowing how serious his brother could get, Seldon got out of the study.
After that, Sheldon took out his phone and dialed Avery’s phone number.
He complained, feeling displeased, “My brother doesn’t know your sister at all. He thinks I’m ridiculous.”
“I clearly saw your brother leave with Skylar,” Avery replied.
“You were seeing things,” concluded Sheldon.
Avery was at a loss. Was I really?
But it’s not impossible either. I mean, why would Tobias get involved with someone like Skylar anyway? It’ll be like degrading himself.
After hanging up, Sheldon went downstairs while whistling casually.
Seeing that Tanya was still here, Sheldon asked, “Are you going to spend the night?”
Tanya glanced at Claudia and pretended to be in a dilemma while replying, “Um… I don’t think that’s too appropriate. After all, we’re not married yet. Besides, with a reputation like the Fords, I’m afraid that rumors would spread like wildfire.”
Scoffing internally, Sheldon forced a smile. This woman is so full of sh*t. The way she usually looks at Tobias was as though she wants to strip him naked.
Claudia then decided for Tanya and said, “Why don’t you just move in, Tanya, so that I can also look after you.”
“Mom, isn’t this rather inappropriate? I’m afraid Tobias will be upset,” said Tanya.
“I highly doubt that, Just spend the night. The two of you are going to get married soon anyway.” novelbin
Tanya nodded with an awkward expression on her face, but deep down, she was happy. Yet, she felt a little regretful that the lingerie she wore today was not sexy enough to seduce Tobias and arouse him.
