In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 577

Kevin looked like he was about to cry. “I wish for the same too! But howdo I go to school now? The debt collectors even waited for me outsidethe school. If I didn't solve this issue as soon as possible, I would beexpelled from school. I didn't even say anything bad about you onTwitter. I was just sad fishing online and hoping to get some donation.”Feeling guilty, Lauren kept on lowering her head. She chewed the dishfor a long time but did not swallow. She was afraid that Skylar wouldnotice it was her who had been bringing Kevin for gambling.

Finally, Tobias could not take it anymore. He said with a cold tone, “Doyou think you deserve sympathy? You wouldn't be so calm to postanything on the internet if you were really that desperate to replace asolution. You are just forcing Skylar to compromise. You know that shewould help you sooner or later. It didn't cost you much for makingmistakes. By the way, Skylar is not your parent. So, it's not herresponsibility to clean up your mess for you.”

Kevin was afraid of Tobias. He lowered his head when Tobias wastalking and didnt dare to say anything back.

Skylar suddenly remembered Tobias saying that Kevin was unrepentant.He had no regret for whatever he had done. Instead, Kevin would thinkthat Skylar was a selfish person who betrayed her own family if sherefused to help him.

Hence, she decided to be selfish for once. She put all of her cards onthe table. “I won't post anything on Twitter for clarification. This is thelast chance I am giving you. I don't want your life to be ruined by publicopinions at such a young age. However, I won't give you money either.This is your parents’ business. I couldn't care less even if you've beendriven into a corner.”

Skylar was very determined. The situation turned out to be entirelydifferent from how Kevin had expected it to be. He said, “This is beyondhumiliating. Selling the house is not going to help this time. I lost morethan one million again last night. It's all my fault for being too greedy. Iwas eager to win all my money back in one shot.”

Skylar closed her eyes and took a deep breath. What do I

expect? Tobias was right about it. Kevin was hopeless. It was as if he felldown and got stuck in the mud. Nobody could help him get out.Tobias felt something off in Kevin's words. It is almost impossible for astudent who doesn't have the ability to pay off his debts to place betsin the millions. There must be something fishy.

Skylar slammed her hand on the table. She was bursting with anger.“Why can't you just learn your lesson? Why do you have to do this toyourself?”

Kevin propped his face on his hand, with a serious and painfulexpression on his face.

There was nothing Skylar could do. She said, “You're on your own. Youmust own up to your mistakes. Don't ever try to pull any tricks on me.”As soon as she finished talking, Skylar heaved a sigh of relief. It was notas difficult as she expected to reject him. She felt much more relievedafter saying those words.

Tobias was glad that Skylar had finally learned the lesson well. Now, heneeded to get someone to buy over that old manor and transfer it toSkylar.

Since she treasured that old manor that much, then he must let herhave it.

Kevin glared at her with resentment in his eyes. “Skylar, aren't youafraid that I'll hate you for the rest of my life? Obviously, it was not abig deal for you. You're pushing me into a corner.”

Tobias reprimanded him coldly, “You're too young. So, I can't reallytreat you in a formal way as if I'm dealing in business. Stop puttingSkylar in a difficult position. She is your cousin, not your sister; so that'sdifferent. You can totally seek help from your sister.”

Kevin felt a strong sense of defeat. He had never felt so helpless in hislife. He was getting out of luck. He couldn't win at all.

After Tobias and Skylar left, Lauren only dared to speak loudly. Shestared angrily at Kevin, “Wake up! Your Twitter post doesn't help at all.Skylar didn't seem to care about you at all. It's too easy for being yourcousin.”

Clenching his fists, Kevin furiously punched the table. His punch was sopowerful that even the cups on the table moved a little due to thevibration.

“Keep this card with you. There's three million in the card. Use thismoney to buy over the old manor. Then, go look for someone who isreliable and put the house under her name.” Inside the car, he took outthe bank card from the armrest compartment and handed it to Skylar.
