In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 154

Imagining that painful yet gentle sensation, a sense of pleasure andexcitement arose in Skylar's heart.

She got out of bed and stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom,then took off her pants and tried spanking herself erotically.

To her frustration, she could not achieve a sense of pleasure out of it.Suddenly, she came back to her senses. What the hell am I doing?

She put on her pants again and crawled back into bed when shenoticed a few unread messages on her phone.

Tobias: Have you seen it? How do you feel?

Tobias: We can try that when we meet.

His suggestive text messages made Skylar wondered if he was truly in ameeting. How could he speak of such things if he were in a meeting?She sent a smiley face emoji without typing anything else.

Tobias: Come on, say something. Don't just send me a smiley face.Skylar: I'm afraid of pain. If you hit me like that, it would be considereddomestic violence. I'm not a fan of that.

Tobias: Don't worry, I will control the intensity. You don't have to be shywith me. Just be yourself.

Skylar: I'm going to sleep.

Although Skylar put an end to the topic abruptly, her heart wascaptivated by Tobias. As the night fell, the air conditioner made arumbling sound.

Tobias did not respond to her message any further or even wished hergood night, causing her to wonder if she had disappointed him.

At ten o'clock that night, the atmosphere in the meeting room of FordGroup was silent and tense. The project manager was still busypresenting his new proposals.

Meanwhile, the other employees peeked at their CEO from time to timeas though they were walking on a knife-edge.

In the midst of his presentation, the project manager wondered ifTobias was listening to him as the latter was staring at the phone thewhole time.

There wasn't much expression on his face, and his employees couldn“tfigure out what he was thinking.

When Tobias heard from Skylar that she was going to sleep, heintentionally placed his phone with its screen facing up so he couldeasily see any new incoming notifications.

At that very moment, the project manager ended his presentation.

“Mr. Ford, do you any comments on the proposal?” he asked

Tobias finally looked up and narrowed his eyes. “I didn't catch anythingyou said just now. Could you repeat your presentation?”

Though the project manager's throat was already dry from speaking, hehad no choice but to present everything again.

Just as he scrolled back to the first slide of his presentation, Tobiasinterrupted him and signaled for the secretary to come over.

The secretary walked over and waited for instructions.

“Take a look at my itinerary and book me a flight ticket to N Province,”said Tobias.

The secretary was stunned. He wondered why Tobias wanted to add NProvince to the itinerary even though the company had no businessdealings there.

Nevertheless, he nodded and answered, “Sure, Mr. Ford. You have sometime to spare on Friday. Do you want to depart on Friday then?”“Mhm,” Tobias responded. This meant that he would need to wait aweek before he could meet Skylar.

This was the first time he had changed his travel plans for a woman. Inthe past, he used to be emotionally detached as such matters wouldinevitably get in the way of his career and business.

Early the next morning, Skylar was woken up by a sudden knock on herdoor. As she opened her eyes and regained her senses, she regrettedwhat happened the night before. She had spent all night chatting withTobias and did not even finish going through her script.

She was stunned to see Kai when she opened the door. “Is the hotel onfire?” she asked.

Kai looked around in confusion. “No, do you smell smoke?"

Skylar took the hair tie around her wrist and tied her hair into a neatponytail, saying, “Well, you knocked on my door so anxiously. I thoughtthe building was on fire. Is something wrong?”

“I need to use your toilet. The one in my room is broken,” he said.Before Skylar could say anything, Kai rushed into her room to use thetoilet.

Leaning against the door, she said loudly, “Don’t you feel embarrassed?We don't know each other that well, yet you charge into my room earlyin the morning to use my toilet.”
