Chapter 171 - Not Like The Rumors (1/2)

”There are some matters I need to take care of at the company, I'll drop you off.”

Mimi watched Tobias enter the car and giggled. ”All right.”

He nodded his head and launched the car to drive out of the hospital parking lot. Mimi leaned against her seat and gazed out at the moving scenery.

While driving, Tobias would occasionally steal glances at the girl. Mimi noticed his stares, the corner of her lips twitching.

”Toby is my face so beautiful that you keep stealing glances at me or what?” She fluttered her lashes at him with a bashful expression.

He didn't shy away from her teasing stare and said, ”Are you sure you'll be fine while I'm gone?”

Mimi blinked her eyes as if confused.

”Why wouldn't I be?”

Tobias paused for a while and hesitated before saying, ”…Your eye, what if it hurts again?”

Mimi was astonished by his poor excuse and laughed softly, ”I told you already not to worry about that, it doesn't hurt anymore. You heard the doctor, he said I was perfectly healthy!”

Tobias pursed his lips and shifted his gaze upfront. The car was silent for a while, neither speaking.

Finally, Tobias opened his mouth to ask, ”What will you do while I'm working?”

It was the weekend, so she didn't have online schoolwork nor did she need to attend to her company. Mimi worked hard for so many days that she finally caught up with both her company work and her schoolwork.

Watching this on the side, Tobias felt pleased with her work.

Mimi tilted her head and hummed thoughtfully.

”I saw there was some leftover French toast in the fridge. I might eat that and catch up on some a.d.u.l.t films.” She answered truthfully.

Tobias: ”...”

The two no longer said anything further to each other as Tobias stopped asking questions. However, his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

Should a girl her age be watching such films?

Tobias knew Mimi possessed perverted tendencies, but he never thought she indulged in watching e.r.o.t.i.c films. He clenched his jaw with a displeased expression. He needed to manage the videos she watched and block some sites from her.

With this thought in mind, the crease in his brows eased. The two continued the drive in silence, Mimi, completely unaware that her e.r.o.t.i.c film binging days were coming to an end.

…

After dropping Mimi off, Tobias drove directly to his company. Upon arriving, he walked toward the front and entered, only to identify a familiar young woman standing on the side, her head bowed down to scribble something in her notebook.

Perceiving the sound of footsteps, she raised her head, a look of shock flitted across her eyes.

”Mr. Itou.” She bowed her head respectfully.

Tobias greeted with a nod, ”Ms. Tong,”

The young woman by the name of Ms. Tong walked up to Tobias, her lengthy, wheat-colored hair fluttering behind her. Her dark, doe eyes looked up at Tobias with respect, her pink full lips curved gently.

She offered in a kind tone, ”I see Mr. Itou has just arrived as well. Would you like to go up together?”
