Tobias coldly retorted, “I’m disappointed at how ungrateful you are.”
It was obvious to Skylar that she had worn out his patience.
After she left the cafeteria, Tobias continued to follow her, leaving one meter between them.
They stopped at the new cafeteria building, which just had its foundations laid.
Skylar remembered that it was Tobias that funded the building.
She asked him, “Did you promise the principal to donate this building to the school as a condition for my admission?”
Tobias smiled smugly. “That’s right. Your school fees are… expensive.”
Skylar finally verified the claims. I’ve owed Tobias too much. How could I ever repay him in this lifetime?
However, what Tobias withheld from Skylar was that the principal had no right to demand anything from him.
Even if he wanted to enroll a dog, the principal wouldn’t even dare refuse him.
Actually, he donated the building on his own accord. But, he used it as a sneaky lie to shackle her even further.
Skylar scratched her head. “Since I can never repay you, I will not try to do so. You can take it as a show of goodwill to the poor.”
Tobias frowned. He had assumed Skylar would be touched but didn’t expect her to use it as an excuse to default on her debt.
He plainly remarked, “Money is indeed not important to me. But how are you going to return my stolen heart?”
Skylar pretended not to hear him as she put on her earphones.
By the time Skylar ended work at the cafe, it was almost time for her curfew. Hence, she quickly ran back to her dormitory.
When she arrived at the entrance, a dark shadow loomed upon her.
Before she had the chance to scream, someone covered her mouth from behind.
She only managed to calm herself down when she caught a whiff of the familiar white sandalwood scent. Tobias is still here.
