Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 133

“I don’t know. The hospital didn’t call me. The payment is still ongoing though. Why are you asking me

this all of a sudden? Do you want to see your mother?” Tobias asked in a leisurely tone.

Right then, Skylar came to a sudden realization. How could Tobias possibly know? He’s only responsible

for providing the money, nothing more and nothing less. I was overthinking it.

He isn’t obligated to keep track of my mom’s condition.

Nevertheless, she told Tobias about Thomas’ invitation, then asked him for his opinion. She was grateful

that she finally had someone to share her problems with instead of flying blind like before.

“Don’t go. Just do your part.”

Tobias’ reply made Skylar feel uneasy. “But if I don’t go, will Thomas do anything bad to my mom? She’d

be all alone there. Besides, she killed Irene’s sister back then, so Irene definitely still bears a grudge

against her.”

“Who’s Irene?” Tobias asked in confusion.

Skylar’s mouth tightened. “My stepmother.”

Tobias sighed in understanding. “What’s the point in you going? Do you want to get bullied together with

your mother? Anyway, Thomas won’t be too hard on you. Besides, I doubt your mother will go. Just use

your head and think.”

Skylar felt unsettled as she weighed her choices. The trap at her uncle’s house the other day had made

her see everything in a different light. This time, she wasn’t sure what the Joneses would be hiding up

their sleeves either.

In the end, she decided to go for the dinner. She was mentally prepared to be choked if Miranda went

berserk upon seeing her.

People tended to feel the most helpless and vulnerable in the middle of the night. At times, Skylar

bemoaned her fate as being alive seemed like an exhausting feat to her.

While other children were loved by their parents, she was abandoned by her father and hated by her

mother.

I must have been a sinful and wicked person in my previous life. That’s why I’m paying off a debt that

does not seem to have an end to it.

When Skylar told Tobias her decision to go tomorrow, he did not stop her because the choice was hers to

make. Instead, he merely said gently, “I can’t accompany you there, so be careful. You can find me at the

company when it’s over.”

Skylar was slightly taken aback. Since when could both of us be together in the open? There’s no way

I’m going to his company.

Early the next morning, Skylar followed Avery and got into a Mercedes-Benz.

Avery was so pampered that even at university, her driver would wait for her by the gates every day,

always at her service. Apart from that, she had a cleaner to clean her dorm every day and take care of

her daily necessities.

Both of them were Thomas’ daughters, but they were treated so differently. In the beginning, Skylar still Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

felt slightly envious, but she was already indifferent to it now.

“Skylar, I’ve never gotten the chance to apologize. I was immature last time, so I hope you can find it in

your heart to forgive me.” In the car, Avery looked at Skylar with an imploring gaze.

Despite that, Skylar did not buy Avery’s sudden change in attitude, neither did she believe the latter had

abruptly grown a conscience.

Skylar put on a better show than Avery as she looked at her calmly with a tender smile. “Of course I

forgive you.”

Avery went rigid as she cursed inwardly. If Thomas hadn’t promised to buy her a Maserati, she would not

have agreed to grovel to her sister.

Feigning innocence, she leaned over to hug Skylar, saying in a honey-laced voice, “You’re the best,

Skylar. We will always be family, and nothing can ever come between us. Dad has been meaning to take

you back into the family, but he was afraid you’d reject him, so he hasn’t brought it up.”
