In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 313

Whenever Lina's colleagues teased her, she would have butterflies inher stomach at the mention of Tobias’ name.

Before setting out, Tobias received a call and needed to meet with hisassistant, Susan. Hence, Skylar went ahead on her own.

She had gotten used to him being habitually disappearing when dutycalled.

If Tobias did not bring her to such a place, she would never have hadthe chance to correct her impression of a massage parlor. She wasdumbfounded by how it was built and decorated opulently; it wasmagnificent!

Upon entering, Skylar could sense an extravagant vibe. The atmosphereechoed its slogan: A Deluxe Experience For Your Enjoyment.

The therapists were all wearing professional uniforms, unlike what shehad imagined. There were no voluptuous girls in skimpy clothes orspecial services associated with sex.

“Lina?” Skylar called out softly as she was not sure if she got the rightperson.

As soon as she heard her name, Lina turned around and was stunned tosee Skylar. Their last meeting was back in high school.

Though Skylar looked very different now, Lina could still recognize herat first glance. She's prettier than she was back then.

The two ladies shared a bond during their schooling days. They werealways seen going to the convenience store or the bathrooms in pairs.Lina would share half of her pasta with Skylar.

Being good friends, they even walked home together after school.Meredith would always praise Lina for her good results and commentedthat Skylar should work harder.

Unfortunately, they lost contact when Lina left school in junior year.They did not expect to run into each other at such a place.

Skylar was thrilled. She never had many friends around her and hadbeen asking around her classmates for news about Lina.

On the contrary, Lina felt so awkward to see an old friend at herworking place. It seems like Skylar is doing very well now. Those whocan afford to come here are the ones who usually have high disposableincomes.

Lina knew Skylar's background like the back of her hand. She used tolive with her grandmother and never joined any school events orexpeditions.

Scrutinizing Skylar, Lina realized that she was wearing a limited editionCartier bracelet on her wrist and dressed like a rich socialite. If that's nota fake bracelet, she must be someone else's kept woman.

Since Skylar was waiting for Tobias, she had some time to kill. Shewalked up to Lina and hugged her. “Where have you been all theseyears? I thought that you went abroad. Why didn't you keep in touchwith me?”

Lina responded, “I wanted to contact you, but I was worried that you'veforgotten about me. How are you doing? Are you here with Jeremy? Idon't see him.”

Lina brought up Skylar's ex-boyfriend. Amongst their classmates, somestill assumed that Skylar and Jeremy were still an item.

Some even gossiped in their chat group, asking if Skylar was pregnantwith Jeremy's baby.

The rumors continued to spew out from their mouths. Some evenvividly described Skylar's child as a seven-pound baby girl.

Skylar was rendered speechless. What would I look like if there's aseven-pound baby living inside my small-frame body?

With a polite grin, she answered, “We broke up a long time ago. It'd beso strange if he shows up right now. Who knows, he might besomewhere shopping with his new girlfriend!”

Lina was curious to discover that the golden pair had separated. Sherecalled making a joke about attending their wedding as thebridesmaid before she left school.

Perhaps Skylar dumped Jeremy for a rich guy? Lina presumed so asSkylar came from a poor family.

Who doesn't want to take a shortcut in life? She had seen many younggirls coming to the massage parlor with their sugar daddies and had ajolly good time in the private room

Tobias was an exception as he always came alone. He was a man of fewwords; very intimidating, yet extremely generous with his tips.

There was once when Tobias took the initiative to strike a conversationwith her and asked about her age.
