Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 143

Tobias wasn’t as lucky as her when it came to falling asleep. He pulled down the blanket covering

Skylar’s head and gently stroked her delicate cheek. She resembled a sleeping kitten as she murmured

in her sleep, “Why did all of you leave me? What have I done wrong?”

She was dreaming that everyone had abandoned her.

Gazing at the moonlight beyond the windows, Tobias remained wide awake. He lay on his side and

supported his head as he quietly watched Skylar. It was a peaceful feeling and how he wished he could

freeze this moment.

The next day, Skylar opened her eyes and felt the space beside her only to find it empty, without a trace

of warmth left. Tobias is gone again.

She tottered out of the bathroom. Every time Tobias had his way with her, she wouldn’t be able to

normally walk the next day.

The sun was shining brightly this morning with its rays spilling in through the windows, enveloping the

entire house in a warm glow.

When Tobias noticed Skylar still wearing a bathrobe, he quirked a brow at her. “Are you seducing me this

early in the morning? Was my performance yesterday not to your satisfaction?”

Skylar hastily tightened the belt of her bathrobe and changed the subject. “Why are you up so early?”

In answer to her question, Tobias served the breakfast he had prepared; fried eggs and sandwiches.

Skylar noticed that the fried eggs were out of shape and slightly burnt.

She picked up a fork and took a bite out of the fried egg. A bitter taste instantly filled her mouth.

“Is it good?”

Skylar nodded. “Pretty good.”

Tobias sighed softly. “I don’t really know how to cook. It’s probably quite bad, right?”

Skylar put down her fork, slightly annoyed. Why did he even ask me when he knows that it tastes

horrible?

He poured a glass of milk for Skylar, but she pushed it away. “I don’t drink milk.”

Tobias gave her a sidelong glance. “Drink it. You’re no different from an underdeveloped child. Don’t you

think you should focus on supplementing yourself? Do you wanna die from malnutrition?”

He was obviously concerned about her, but he phrased it in such an awkward way.

With a reluctant expression, Skylar picked up the glass and chugged the whole thing.

After that, she propped her cheeks on both hands. “Can I ask you a question, Tobias?”

In the midst of clearing the table, Tobias halted his movements and looked at her.

“What’s going on with you and your fiancée? Am I the third party now? I heard that she’s still living in

your house. Everything is so complicated. What should I do?”

Tobias replied in a clipped tone, “I already told you that I wouldn’t marry her, but I need time to convince

my mom. Are you asking me this because you can’t wait to marry me?”

Although Tobias’ answer was ambiguous, Skylar had a strong hunch that he would compromise with his

family and marry Tanya in the end.

After all, he and Tanya were a match made in heaven to everyone else.

With her chin resting on her hand, she smiled faintly. “I’m taking the train to N Province tomorrow. Filming

will take at least three months. Are you going to stay here the whole time?”

Tobias did not answer. What’s the point of staying here when she’s not around?

After breakfast, he sent Skylar back to university to pack up for her trip tomorrow.

After Tobias checked his schedule using his phone, he ordered, “Come down earlier tomorrow. I’ll come

to pick you up. By the way, why aren’t you traveling by plane?”

Skylar replied wryly, “No one booked the tickets for me. Besides, taking the train is cheaper. You know,

I’m starting to think the director has forgotten about me.”

Skylar’s thrifty personality made Tobias feel slightly exasperated. He clearly gave her a black card, but it

seemed like she was treating it more like a debit card.

He didn’t want Skylar to be so courteous with him. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
