In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 122

Hearing Penelope's brazen words, her face turned red. “Yes, but henever gave me any promises. He has a fiancée too. I am so confusedright now. Should I go talk to him?” she said calmly.

Penelope was rendered speechless. Although Skylar was her best friend,she said bluntly, “Skylar, how could you do this? Why are you messingwith a man who has a fiancée? You are not this kind of person. Is heloaded?”

Even though Skylar had expected Penelope to react this way, she stillfelt ashamed of herself when her friend said those words to her face.After all, Tanya and Tobias’ wedding was merely postponed, notcanceled. In fact, Skylar also heard that Tanya was staying with the Fordfamily.

She pursed her lips as she tried to calm herself. If this situationcontinued on, she would definitely break down soon.

“He is quite rich, but that has never been my concern. It's just that Ifound myself starting to feel an attachment to him.”

Penelope believed what she said. In her opinion, Skylar was not amaterialistic woman. Hence, the only possible explanation was that shewas fooled by that man.

Penelope remarked indignantly, “You need to have a clean break withthat guy. Considering that he is still messing around when he has afiancée, he is no doubt an unscrupulous person. Besides, he has notcontacted you in such a long time. It means that he doesn't even careabout you. Skylar, just forget about this vile man! If you want, I caneven teach him a lesson on your behalf.”

Penelope had always been a daring person and was practically fearless.At times, Skylar really envied her strong character, unlike herself whowas always submissive.

Penelope clenched her teeth. “Skylar, keep your head clear and focuson your career. When you're famous, you can get any man you want.It's only degrading to be with a jerk like him.”

Suddenly, Skylar's phone vibrated on the table. When she saw the callerID, her face turned pale as her eyelids trembled

With her sharp eyes, Penelope noticed that the phone screen displayedthe name “Devil.” Upon seeing the name, she was certain that it wasthat man who was calling. Judging from Skylar's hesitant expression, itwas obvious that she wanted to answer the phone.

She had lost contact with Tobias for a month. Hence, his suddenappearance took Skylar by surprise. Naturally, she had the strong urgeto ask him what he had been up to, but what right did she have to dothat?

While she hesitated with the phone in her hand, Penelope snatched itover.

Unfortunately, Skylar failed to stop Penelope in time, and the lattersmashed the green button to connect the call. The next instant, shebellowed into the phone, “Why are you calling Skylar? I am warningyou. Do not disturb her anymore! How dare you mess around with herwhen you're marrying another woman soon? Skylar is a simple-mindedgirl. That's why she was deceived by you, scumbag!”

Penelope attacked him ruthlessly like a machine gun. Her tone washarsh and unforgiving.

When she had finally finished lashing out at him, she pursed her lipsand swallowed the lump in her throat.

However, the other side of the line was completely quiet. Just whenPenelope thought there was an issue with the signal, a deep voice camefrom the phone. She couldn't help but shudder at the menacing voice.He answered indifferently in a husky voice, “Are you done? I need totalk to Skylar.”

“She's not here. She has a date with her boyfriend. Don't disturb heragain,” Penelope warned sternly before she hung up the call
