In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 576

Pegasus Cybercafé was near Kevin’s school. This cybercafé had been in existence for quite some years. Skylar had been there when she was still a student.

Back then, she used to spend the whole night at the cybercafé with Jeremy. Skylar still remembered the price. The fee was fifteen—all night unlimited use.

That time, Jeremy liked to play CrossFire. He wore a headset and cursed at the computer a lot.

He was really good at gaming. At that time, Skylar thought that was love.

However, it felt terribly uncomfortable especially during the morning hours at cybercafé. The pungent odor, dust in the air, hunger for food, and a face covered in sebum.

What came up next was the voice of the boss.

Wake up. It’s morning now.

Skylar was lost in thought. She was never a delicate girl who had the best time of youth, but an ordinary person who lived a plain life. If it wasn’t for Tobias, she would just kept on muddling through her life as she used to day in and day out.

There was an empty instant noodles bowl on the table when Skylar finally found Kevin. He was wearing a headset and commanding his teammates in the game.

“Can someone give me a Kar98k? F*ck! I can’t find any vehicles!”

“Who the f*ck is aiming at me?”

“I haven’t won a game tonight…”

Skylar found it hard to believe that Kevin used to be an excellent student with good manners and top results when she saw him there.

Kevin’s grades had always been good. He even won first place in National French Contest during his first year of high school. How did he end up like this in such a short time? Could it be the peer pressure from growing up?

Skylar had been standing behind him for quite a while. If Tobias didn’t remove the headset from behind Kevin, he wouldn’t even notice her existence.

He immersed himself completely in the game.

Kevin couldn’t recognize Skylar at first because she was wearing a baseball cap and face mask. He was about to curse but quickly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.

Lauren, Kevin’s girlfriend was there too. She put down her computer mouse and got up from the sofa.

Tobias looked at Kevin’s girlfriend. She was about Kevin’s age. She had her hair in colorful dreadlocks, wearing a goth makeup with smoky eyes. One of her arms was full of colorful tattoo.

These roguish hooligans were such an eyesore to Tobias.

Then, Skylar took the two kids to a restaurant nearby with private rooms where they could have their privacy. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

She had covered herself well from head to toe, but many people were still looking at her direction.

She wasn’t sure if they had recognized her, or they were actually looking at Tobias. She just couldn’t tell.

It was time to eat. Kevin was still hungry as the noodles he ate earlier had already been digested.

Lauren looked rather nervous and cautious as compared to Kevin. She sat beside him, biting her lips.

Skylar ordered some food. As soon as the first dish was served, Kevin couldn’t hold himself and began to stuff his mouth with food.

Meanwhile, Lauren hadn’t started eating. Skylar looked at her and asked, “Kevin is your boyfriend, isn’t he?”

Lauren nodded.

Skylar somehow felt that that girl didn’t deserve Kevin.

This time, Skylar went straight to the point, “Why did you do that? Why must you push me into the corner? What could you possibly gain from doing this?”

Kevin didn’t dare to tell Skylar that the idea was actually instigated by Eva. He had no choice but to bear the consequences. “Because I have no money, and you’re not helping me either. That money means nothing to you at all. You even endorse Gucci. Besides, you’re also one of the A-list celebrities. You get paid well for every single show. Do you really have the heart to see me end up in the ditch?”

His tone was devoid of any guilt or shame. Tobias thought he was probably influenced by his family upbringing. They tended to take others for granted as if they deserved it.

Skylar was infuriated. “How could you be so shameless to say these words? Did I force you to gamble? You’re still a student. Aren’t you supposed to study hard”

Tobias poured a cup of tea for Skylar. None of Skylar’s words were on point. Still, she was too weak. She was giving Kevin a chance to seek sympathy.
