She then walked toward the Mercedes-Benz and knocked on the window.
The man in the car, Tobias, wound down the window and said calmly, “Get in.”
Skylar opened the car door and got into the passenger’s seat.
As soon as she closed the door, Tobias threw a box of medicine into her lap.
She picked it up and took a look. Plan B!
“Morning-after pills, huh? How sweet of you, Mr. Ford.”
Without hesitation, she unboxed it, popped two tablets into her mouth, and washed them down with the mineral water left in a bottle in the car.
The expression on Tobias’ face turned slightly solemn. “You know your stuff, don’t you? Have you taken this pill before? “
“Oh yeah, I take it like my supplement. One pill a day.” Skylar rolled her eyes at him.
Tobias pinched her chin, looking intimidating. “You’re not allowed to make this kind of joke in the future. I don’t like it.”
Feeling the pain, Skylar punched his arm and asked him to stop.
“The instruction is clearly written on the box. It’s not like I’m illiterate!”
Thinking that this explanation made sense, Tobias let go of her.
“Apply to live off-campus. You don’t need to stay at the dorms!”
Yet, Skylar shook her head and replied, trying to discuss with him, “The university is too far away, and I prefer convenience, so just let me live on campus.”
But Tobias said contemptuously, “If it’s too far away, get up early. I don’t think you have the right to negotiate with me.”
At that point, Skylar wished to disappear on the spot, so she didn’t have to face this man, who had started to control her life.
