Chapter 181
Skylar’s eyes drifted toward the black Porsche and landed on Sheldon, who had gotten off the car and
was currently waving at her across the distance.
While Tobias went to park the car in the garage, Skylar opened the front door and stepped aside to let
Sheldon in.
Sheldon had a cheeky grin on his face when he clarified, “I’m just here to crash. I won’t disturb you two.”
Skylar blushed slightly as she put down her bag. Even though she had not been here for a long time,
everything looked pretty much the same. For some reason, she felt slightly edgy, as though she was a
guest here.
When Tobias came in, he told Skylar to wait for him as he had some business affairs to handle, to which
Skylar nodded obediently before going upstairs to take a shower.
After coming out of her shower, she saw Sheldon sitting in the living room with his long legs resting on
the coffee table.
“Are you watching a TV series?”
On the TV, the male lead was earnestly professing his love to the female lead.
Skylar rubbed her forehead, never expecting Sheldon to like watching romance dramas. She
remembered watching this particular series when she was in elementary school.
At that time, she was young and easily tricked into believing that true love existed.
Skylar sat on another sofa with water still dripping from the ends of her hair. Sheldon yawned before
remarking, “It’s quite a nice series. Don’t all you girls like watching these kinds of romance dramas?”
Skylar vaguely sensed that there was a hidden meaning behind his words and wondered whether she
was becoming paranoid.
Before long, Sheldon fell asleep and started snoring on the sofa. Hence, Skylar switched to another
movie to watch. Just as the movie was reaching its climax, Tobias came downstairs.
Skylar’s eyes were still fixated on the TV screen.
Tobias sat beside her and glanced at Sheldon snoring away on the sofa. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Suddenly, moans of pleasure came from the movie playing on the screen.
“Let’s not watch anymore.” Skylar had turned slightly red in the face and was grateful for the dim lights.
Tobias slowly leaned forward to kiss her lips. “Why not?”
His warm breath tickled the shell of her ear and the sound of his soft yet heavy breathing was all she
could hear.
His husky voice filled her ears and she stared transfixed as his gaze turn heavy with desire. As if having
a mind of its own, her hand reached for the remote control to switch off the TV.
Feeling an itch in his nose, Sheldon opened his eyes drowsily only to see his brother pressing Skylar to
the sofa while kissing and fondling her.
He started grumbling in his heart. Why are they in such a hurry? I mean, c’mon. On the couch? What do
they take me for? Air?
He immediately squeezed his eyes shut, pretending to be asleep as he was afraid of seeing too much.
“Baby, let’s go upstairs.”
Sheldon’s whole body had tensed up with cold sweat coating his back. Oh, thank God. Finally, they’re
taking it elsewhere.
The next morning, Sheldon went downstairs to see Skylar coming out of the kitchen with an apron tied
around her waist right before noticing the piping hot food served on the table.
Skylar’s face was without makeup, but with her exquisite and striking features, she managed to give off
an exotic vibe.
Sheldon had to admit that Skylar was very beautiful, even more so than her sister Avery.
He pulled out a chair and sat down. Three plates of visually pleasing spaghetti Aglio olio were placed on
the table.
“Where’s my brother? And what’s wrong with your voice?” Sheldon queried.
He suspected that the two of them had taken things too far last night and that Tobias was still sleeping
due to overexertion.
“He’s showering upstairs. He’ll be down soon.” Skylar sat across Sheldon and gave him a pair of cutlery
as her cheeks heated up.
She must have screamed her voice hoarse last night.
Recalling the past, Sheldon said wistfully, “My mother used to be busy all the time and would always
leave my brother and me at home. The two of us only knew how to cook noodles, and my brother’s
cooking was beyond horrible.”
