Chapter 284 - Duffer

David refused flatly. "No, Your workout started, there should be a little break before work. Evening you can study. I will not compromise on your health."

"Okay, you win." Sky agreed to David.

She knew if he complains to Jai, he will ask her to leave studies making her health a priority.

"Arlo, Inform your family that you will reach late. Do you have a car?" Sky asked.

David knew Arlo had nearly thirty limited edition cars plus others but he was curious to know his reply. Arlo pursed his lips to control his expression and nodded.

"Great then. What about the salary for this?" Sky wasn't the one to eat a free meal.

"I will help you to study. Not as a job." Arlo gave his standpoint as he wasn't lacking any money.

"No. We are not friends to take your help. I don't want to owe you anything." Sky refused.

"Then think it as my apology for throwing you in the water." Arlo said straightforwardly.

Sky clenched her teeth and covered her face with palms. With a great deal, she hid that incident from David just because of their long term relationship, but Arlo just said it like that.

Sky felt David getting up from his seat and instantly stood up.

"Dad, It's nothing as you think. I made him fall on the ground and I dared him so I ended up in the water. Am I not good now?" Sky held his shoulders and made him sit.

Sky signaled butler for water and continued, "If it was something serious wouldn't I have told you? Don't get angry for nothing and shoot your blood pressure high up."

Sky handed him the glass, he shot a glance at confused Arlo then at Sky, "That's better be the case... And you are not little kid to play."

Sky waited for him to calm down as she asked Butler to send the box to her study room. Then she commented for him before running into the study.

"Dad, Who is going to stop me from playing even if I'm not a kid?"

After reaching the stairs, she signaled Arlo to follow. David shook his head resignedly looking at her.

When Arlo was passing by he warned him, "If Sky gets hurt a little because of you, I will not care about your identity."

Arlo nodded and followed Sky upstairs to her study. When he entered, Sky burst at him.

"Are you freaking nuts? Do you have a death wish? I made sure to keep it hidden and YOU! Dad will not care about your relationship of 25 or 30 years when it comes to me." Sky glared at him for a few seconds, "Duffer."

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But he felt good hearing her chiding.

Then they planned their schedule and organized the book in the study. He informed which books to get to the office from tomorrow.

Since they decided to spend two hours a day, Sky decided to do the same and finish at six. But they didn't realize the time until a maid knocked on the door to call them for dinner.

They winded up for the day. Arlo had dinner with them before leaving with a pleased smile.

He was thinking to scare all the professors and leave her. So that he would be the only choice but he didn't have to do anything.

About Sam and others, he has to manage around them or he would think of something else later.
