Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 261

Miranda was still a little reluctant to part with them when Skylar and Tobias dropped her off at her house,

saying, “Today’s meeting was just too rushed. I’ll treat you to a meal one day whenever you’re free,

Tobias.”

Not wanting Miranda and Tobias to interact too much, Skylar cut into the conversation. “He’s really busy,

so maybe next time.”

“I’m free anytime, Ms. Watts. Just ask Skylar to pass on the message to me,” Tobias immediately

followed up with a smile.

Only then was Miranda satisfied. Tobias was a very powerful man and her savior. If he hadn’t been

dating Skylar, she might have had to stay in jail forever. Even after so many years, I still have to rely on

Skylar.

She’d always thought that it was useless to raise a daughter, but things were different now. Miranda

didn’t regret having given birth to Skylar anymore, but she did regret taking out all her frustration from the

divorce out on Skylar as a child.

“Thank you.” Skylar rested her head against the car window, tired and in a bad mood.

“It’s not a big deal. You’re going to make it up to me anyway.” Tobias turned up the heating system in the

car, something he usually never did because the warm air conditioning made him feel stuffy and

uncomfortable.

“I’m way too tired, and besides, we already did “it” yesterday. Can’t I repay you in some other way?”

pleaded Skylar.

“Well, what do you have to offer me?”

Skylar grew quiet. How else can I make it up to Tobias? The twenty million cash deposit? It didn’t seem

like he’d want that.

Besides, her bank account didn’t have that twenty million anymore. She’d transferred fifteen million to

Miranda because Miranda didn’t have any other source of income after getting out of jail, and had never

purchased any kind of insurance.

Everything and anything required money nowadays, and she couldn’t just leave her mother to her own

devices. Plus, she had confiscated from her the card that Tobias had given Skylar.

What if she’s unable to control herself and overspends on unnecessary things?

She was worrying herself to death trying to ensure that Miranda could live a normal life.

Shaking her head in resignation, Skylar sighed. “I guess all I can do right now is selling my body. But,

filming for my new movie is starting soon. If I become famous, I’ll bury you in all the money I’m bound to

earn.”

That was an absolute lie. There was probably no one on earth who could bury Tobias in more money

than he already owned.

Noticing that Skylar looked fatigued, Tobias decided not to press the topic any further. “I know, I know.

When you earn enough money to bury me alive, then it’ll be my turn to kick back and relax. I want to

experience what it’s like to be pampered and spoiled too.”

The sun had already risen when they arrived home.

Skylar felt even guiltier for having dragged Tobias into her mess. If it weren’t for her, he would be asleep

on his bed about now.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Yawning, she laid down on the sofa with a pillow in her arms. With her chin resting on top of the pillow

and a small pout on her lips, she resembled a lost lamb.

The more Tobias stared at Skylar’s new hairstyle, the unhappier he became. The cuteness that he

adored from before was replaced by a sassy fierceness, and he didn’t like it. Her original black hair was

more than good enough. Why did they have to ruin it?

“If you’re tired, go upstairs to sleep,” he told her.

Skylar yawned again, rubbing her neck. “What about you? Are you going to sleep too?”

Taking a look at his wristwatch, Tobias said, “I need to make another trip to the office.”

That woke Skylar up. Tobias going back to the office at five in the morning sounded suspiciously similar

to the excuse other husbands would give their wives, saying that they had to stay back at the office for

work even though it was the middle of the night. The sleepiness in her mind cleared and was

immediately replaced by intrusive thoughts of whether there was actually someone else somewhere else

waiting on Tobias.
