Chapter 706 Can You Compare
Skylar cast him a conflicted look. “I need to leave now. I won't be able to keep you company. If you want to do that... you should take care of it in the toilet on your own.”
Skylar was being rather straightforward, but Tobias inched closer to her. “But it misses you. Can't you give it a kiss?”
That was when Skylar understood what he wanted. Tobias wanted her to do it with her mouth. That way, it would be done swiftly without wasting anyone's time.
To his dismay, she refused, “I don't want to. What if a strand of hair shows up in my mouth in the middle of the program?”
Tobias grabbed her hand to make her feel the hardness of his family jewel. “I don't shed.”
Skylar immediately retracted her hand, pushed the covers away, and jumped out of bed.
Seeing that, Tobias called out, “The sun isn't up yet. Why are you going to work when you've just gotten back from another country? Must you be so hardworking?”
Skylar expelled a weary sigh. “That's the fate of office workers. Besides, there's strong competition in the company now that they've signed contracts with so many rookies and bought over so many A-list celebrities. It's no different from the time when I first joined the company. Royal Entertainment has just gotten onto the right track, and now it's almost dominating the industry. How could I not feel threatened? I won't be getting fat, juicy deals delivered to me anymore.”
Tobias was in no rush to respond. He lit a cigarette and leaned against the bedframe, exposing his shirtless upper body. At the same time, the cigarette smoke blurred his face. “I think you've forgotten something. Your man's the boss of Royal Entertainment. I'll let you have anything you want, let alone fat, juicy deals.”
Skylar's frustration dissipated when she heard his words. She no longer felt envious of Royal Entertainment's favor for Saorise.
Only then did she remove her pajamas and change into a V-neck sweater with yellow stripes in front of Tobias. “Hearing that is enough for me. I'll take on as much work as I can handle, but I won't ask for much since I'm quite satisfied with my current popularity. I'll just go with the flow.”
Tobias extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray, remarking, “Both you and I have contrasting personalities. I always want things to have the best outcome while you just drift along.”
Skylar did not argue because he was right. She had become more cowardly ever since she entered the entertainment industry. Showing off was the last thing she wanted to do. All she wanted was to take things step by step instead of becoming greater than someone else.
