In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 168

With much patience, Tobias explained, “This is a Five Line Sak Yant, one of Thailand’s most sacred tattoos. It is believed that having this tattoo will bring luck, protection, fortune, health, and good relationships.”

Skylar tiptoed to touch the mysterious tattoo on his back. For a moment, she felt as if she had depreciated him by thinking he would tattoo her name. He is a mature man, after all. He’s not some hot-headed guy who would tattoo a woman’s name on his body.

“You are already filthy rich, but you’re still hoping for more fortune?” she muttered.

Tobias carried her to the bed and tucked her in. “Instead of fortune, I got the tattoo because I wished it would bring me good luck. For the past two years, life was not going my way. It’s hard to explain, but I feel like everything is destined. Now, I take all obstacles in life as my redemption to free myself from my sins.”

Skylar didn’t ask further questions. Although they were in a relationship, the two of them lived in two completely different worlds. Even until now, she knew little about him and his life.

Since there was no basin in the room, Tobias headed to the washroom to wet a towel for her to clean herself up.

When he came out of the washroom with the wet towel, he realized she had already fallen asleep. The room was silent except for the buzzing sound of the air-conditioner.

The size of the bed was quite small. Her body had occupied more than half of the space even though she was only five feet tall.

Tobias didn’t have the heart to shift her body for fear that he would wake her up, so he resorted to sitting on the armchair throughout the night.

The next morning, Skylar was awakened by the loud and continuous knocks on the door. “Skylar, open the door! I need to use the washroom!”

In an instant, she was fully awake when she recalled that Kai would come to her room every morning to use the washroom.

Tobias found the voice of the person speaking outside the room familiar. He turned to look at Skylar, who had already put on her clothes though her hair was still messy.

She was now in a state of agitation, and there was no time for her to tidy her hair. Since she was here to work, she was reluctant to let anyone know that there was a man in her room to avoid creating a bad impression. Apart from that, she felt that it was better to keep their relationship on the down-low because of Tobias’s unique identity.

That being said, there was no place for him to hide in the room.
