It was Yulia!There was also a good-looking young man dressed in a suit sitting opposite her.The duo was seated by a French window chattering away.Skylar frowned at the sight as a stifling feeling arose in him.He pulled over and headed straight for the cafe.âYulia!âYulia, who had her head down as she stirred her coffee, turned when she heard someone calling for her.Her eyes lit up when her gaze landed on Skylar.âYouâre back!âSkylar nodded and sat next to her, casually wrapping an arm around her waist.âAnd, this is?âSkylar barely kept his cool as he swept a glance at the man.âHeâs myâ¦âYulia was just about to introduce Skylar when the man suddenly spoke, âIâm her boyfriend, Anderson Sawyer.ââDo you think her waist is free real estate? Hands off her!âAnderson was glaring viciously at the offending hand still clamped onto Yuliaâs waist.Yulia froze, caught off guard by his words. âWhat the hell are you saying, Anderson?!ââThis is my husband, Skylar Stone!âShe hurried to explain herself without waiting for Andersonâs reaction. âHeâs my classmate from back in college. We were discussing a new investment project before you came.âYulia had always kept herself pure.Skylar had never once doubted it either.Witnessing his self-proclaimed wife conversing with Anderson had triggered his possessiveness. All his negative emotions vanished with Yulia dubbing him her husband.Skyler was no longer put off by the situation after Yulia made their relationship clear to Anderson. He was snickering.Anderson, meanwhile, narrowed his eyes dangerously.Despite that, he quickly responded and pretended to laugh heartily. âHaha, I was just joking, Yulia!âHe changed the subject before Yulia could respond. âWhen did you get married anyway? I donât think I heard about it.ââAm I the only one out of the loop?ââNo, no⦠We havenât had a wedding yet. The others donât know either.âShe explained, blushing.It was a title that she blurted out of reflex, mainly because Andersonâs words were going too far.It quickly exposed her true thoughts.She was greatly embarrassed by having said that with Skylar in the room.After all, they hadnât yet reached the point of marriage.He hadnât even proposed to her.Yet, she had haphazardly gone along with her own narrative.How embarrassing.âSo, thatâs how it is!âAnderson forced a smile. âI have a lunch appointment soon so Iâll be taking my leave now.ââIâll be back later to discuss the new project.âHe then got up to leave and pretended to unintentionally glance at Skylar.Skylar, meanwhile, didnât seem to care.His mind was currently occupied by nothing but Yulia.âHoneyâ¦âHe spoke mirthfully, âWhat was it you called me just now? Say that again.â
