“Yeah, I had some spaghetti,” she lied.

Tobias tightened his grip on her wrist slightly. “Join me for lunch. I’m starving, and it feels lonely eating

all by myself.”

Skylar didn’t believe him one bit.

“Don’t lie to me! I saw you come here with a bunch of people, so how could you possibly be lonely?

Anyway, I have to go. My mom is still waiting for me to bring her lunch, and she hasn’t eaten anything

since morning.”

The Cardiology Department and Psychiatric Rehabilitation Department were on different floors, so

Tobias could only follow her as far as the elevator.

“How’s your mom doing?” Skylar asked while waiting for the elevator.

“She’s alright. We haven’t decided on whether she’ll be getting a coronary bypass or a heart transplant.

The problem with the latter is that it’ll take time to find a donor…” Tobias was clearly fatigued and

stressed out when he said that.

Skylar gave him a pat on the shoulder and reassured him in her most mature-sounding voice possible,

“Everything will be alright.”

She was so caught up in the moment that she didn’t even realize the elevator arriving. Noticing that,

Tobias decided to keep quiet about it as he wanted to spend more time with her.

By the time she realized it, the elevator was already going up.

“Come on, we’ll take the stairs.” Tobias took the food over from her and began walking towards the

stairwell.

With her food in his hands, she had no choice but to follow him up the stairs.

He only handed the food back to her when they arrived on the seventh floor. “Go home earlier tonight,

and make sure to stay away from places that are dark.”

That was by far the most heartwarming thing she had ever heard from him.

Even so, she couldn’t do as he said as Miranda had a blood test scheduled very early the next

morning, so she had to spend the night in the hospital.

She told him everything, including the part about Miranda insisting on getting discharged.

Instead of making her decisions for her, Tobias simply nodded and said, “Well, I won’t say any further

since you’ve already made up your mind. Still, will you at least kiss me goodbye?”

The two of them were standing so close to each other that they could feel their breaths on their faces.

Skylar got on her tiptoes and gave him a quick peck on the lips, which obviously wasn’t enough for him.

He rubbed the tip of his nose against hers before tilting his head to the side and kissing her

passionately, only stopping when they were interrupted by the sound of footsteps coming from behind.

He gave her a quick nip on the tongue as he pulled away from her and turned around.

It was his assistant, Susan.

Ew… Just how desperate is this woman? Tobias’ mom is getting heart surgery soon and clinging to him

is all she cares about? Does she not have anything else to do apart from seducing men?

Susan looked away in disgust at the thought of that.

While Skylar burned bright red from being seen kissing, Tobias was completely unfazed by it.

He even pinched Skylar on the cheek in front of Susan as he said, “I’ll be staying in the hospital for the

next two days as well, so just call me if you need anything.”

“Okay.” Skylar nodded and flashed Susan a polite smile before leaving.

He waited till she was far away before shooting Susan a cold glare. “So, did you just happened to pass

by, or were you actually looking for me?”

“Mrs. Ford had me come looking for you, says she has something to tell you. I think she’s really worried

about the surgery going wrong.”

“Got it. Susan, you’ve been working with me for a really long time now. I hope you know what you

should and shouldn’t do.”

Susan pursed her lips. “Do you not trust me, Mr. Ford?”
