For several times, Tobias felt like tearing Skylar’s underwear apart and let his lustful beast within him run free.
As Skylar was hugging his head tightly, it made him feel rather challenging to breathe. But he tried his best not to move and let the former rest deeply in her sleep.
Just then, he heard a knock on the door.
Tobias held Skylar’s head like he was holding a time bomb and placed it gently on the pillow.
He tiptoed to open the door. It was Millie, the housekeeper. “Mr. Ford, Mrs. Ford asks for you.”
Tobias nodded and followed Millie, leaving his room.
Speaking of Millie, she had been a housekeeper for a long time, even though she was just in her twenties. She had a pretty clean face and a soft voice, and he heard that she did not finish high school.
Tobias had tried to send her away more than once, but Millie refused to leave no matter what.
And little did Claudia know that Millie had been Sheldon’s who*e for quite a long time.
Whenever Sheldon was drunk, he would surely pay a secret visit to Millie’s room.
Even when Sheldon was still together with Winnie, Millie became pregnant with the former’s child.
The incident nearly got out of hand while Millie went after Sheldon in desperation. Eventually, Sheldon had no choice but to ask for Tobias’ help not to solve the matter before Mrs. Ford find out about it.
Thinking about all the messes that Sheldon had caused over the years, Tobias let out a long sigh.
In the end, Millie was brought secretly to the hospital to abort the baby.
The moment Tobias entered Claudia’s room, she was lying relaxingly on her couch, with a mask on her face.
Tobias’ eyes widened as Claudia’s night style went contrary to her usual image.
Claudia asked without turning her head. “Did you let Skylar stay here?”
“Yes, I did.”
Claudia sighed in disappointment. She was dissatisfied with Skylar, but she could not be frank with Tobias as she feared that she might offend him.
“Well, it’s not the best way to keep your relationship in the grey zone. I guess it’s about time to get serious. I’m even willing to compromise with this relationship. What’s else are you waiting for? It’s fine if you don’t want to get married, but at least give me a grandchild.”
Claudia’s patience was approaching its limit, as she wanted to make sure his son’s woman was at least capable of producing some children.
Not to mention, she had a lot of opinions regarding Skylar’s body. In her opinion, the latter seemed too skinny and seemingly not the optimum type to bear children.
However, this was precisely the conversation Tobias had been trying to avoid. He could sense Claudia’s eagerness in this matter, as she would even allow him to have a baby before marriage.
Tobias did not try to disguise his frustration anymore. He felt utterly resentful whenever Claudia brought up the subject of him having a baby.
He replied indifferently, “If you are so desperate for a grandchild, I’ll go to the orphanage tomorrow to adopt one. I could even adopt two if that pleases you.”
Claudia had almost passed out upon hearing that. I’m already old, and I want a grandson. Is that too much to ask?
Apparently, her wish seemed impossible to be fulfilled at the moment.
She lamented furiously, “What’s the point if the child is not your blood? Why do you resist having a child so much?”
“Kids are too noisy. I prefer a quiet life.”
Claudia was stunned momentarily. “Then, you’ll regret it when you grow older. You should die alone.”
