In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 39

Ever since she was a child, she had understood that there was no oneshe could rely on. She hoped that everything would go smoothlytomorrow even though she did not remind Tobias.

“Are you heading to the office this early? I'll go with you.” Tanya got upearly in the morning and waited for him.

Frowning, Tobias looked at her with a gloomy expression.

Tanya, on the other hand, added with a bright smile, “Since I'm gonnabe Mrs. Ford soon, I have to get familiarize myself with the company’soperations. This is also what Mom wants me to do.”

She used Claudia’s name again as she knew very well that Claudia wasTobias’ weakness although he seemed tough and stubborn

Whenever she was dissatisfied with Tobias, she would go to Claudia tofan the flames.

“Tobias, take Tanya with you. As you two are getting married, youshould spend more time together.”

Claudia came downstairs in her pajamas with faint dark circles underher eyes. It was apparent that she couldn't rest well.

“It's not convenient,” Tobias said coldly and left.

Tanya, who was ready to go out, looked at him with tears in her eyes.“Mom, Tobias treats me like this even when we're not married yet. Whatshould I do in the future? He must be having an affair, Mom. Myparents are coming soon, so how should I explain to them?”

She cried aggrievedly, making people feel sorry for her.

Seeing how Tobias had treated Tanya, Claudia was so furious that sheclutched her chest, and one of the maids hurriedly handed her themedicine.

She popped two tablets into her mouth. Only then did her breathingreturn to normal.

“Don't cry, Tanya. I'll definitely help you out. Not anyone can just marryinto our family.”

Meanwhile, Sheldon was having a sandwich as he watched the scenebefore him, feeling like he was watching a sad drama

He also did not know why Claudia liked Tanya so much to a point thatshe treated Tobias like he was not her biological son.

Unable to stand it, he said, “My dear future sister-in-law, my mom has aheart condition, but you're bawling in front of her so early in themorning. What are you up to?"

Tanya wished that she could tear Sheldon’s mouth into pieces rightthere and then.

Holding herself back, she gave Sheldon an innocent look. “Somethingwent into my eyes. I'm so sorry, Mom, I didn't want to cry. It's my faultfor causing you trouble early in the morning.”

The more understanding Tanya was, the more Claudia felt sorry for heras she thought of her as a good woman.

Shooting daggers at Sheldon, she chided, “Why don't you think beforeyou speak? Finish up your breakfast quickly and go about yourbusiness. And get out of my sight.”

After being made to eat dirt, Sheldon shrugged. He had a task fromTobias today, which was to go to the prison to pick someone up.

He stuffed all the remaining half of the sandwich into his mouth as heneeded to shut his mouth, for fear that he would mock Tanya again.

At the same time, Skylar was restless all morning.

She did not know if Tobias would go to the prison or if he had alreadyforgotten her request.

After all, he was an unpredictable man whom she could not fathom atall.

Thus, she now regretted not picking her mother up in person.

She would not have asked Tobias for help if she weren't worried thather mother would be triggered and become mentally unstable againupon seeing her.

When she went to visit her in prison last time, her mother, Miranda,seemed to have lost it. Miranda said that she shouldn't have given birthto Skylar in the first place and ended up getting her whole life ruined.Not only that, but she also told Skylar that she would not have lived somiserably if it werent for her daughter.

At that, Skylar stopped thinking about it.

As everyone's phone was locked away in the locker during the physiquelesson, she sneaked out under the pretext of going to the washroom sothat she could call Tobias.
