Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 146

Luxe was the biggest luxury shopping mall in the entire country. There were rumors that Tobias had built

it for Tanya, his fiancée, so she could shop and dine like a queen whenever she wanted to. This was

every woman’s dream—many of them envied Tanya for her good fortune, sighing that she must’ve saved

the entire universe in her past life.

Unfortunately, there would never be a place for Skylar in their privileged lives.

A moment later, she threw herself onto the bed and turned her phone off. She didn’t wish to discuss such

heavy topics with Penelope in the middle of the night—they would only end up speculating endlessly.

Jeremy was snoring very loudly. Skylar tossed and turned in the lower bunk, unable to fall asleep. She

kicked his bunk in frustration. However, Jeremy, who was sleeping like a dead log, did not feel a thing.

Skylar couldn’t help but recall when Jeremy was lying in the hospital bed like an ill cat. He didn’t even

have the energy to breathe. In fact, he reminded her of a languishing flower that had been stripped of its

petals and left to die in the wind.

The loud snores then were proof that he was as healthy as a horse. She traded her body for Jeremy’s

health! This was a stain on her existence that she would never be able to erase for the rest of her life.

That afternoon, the train finally pulled into N Province. She didn’t sleep a wink throughout the entire

night, pulling an all-nighter for the first time in her life. On the other hand, Jeremy slept very well. He

woke up just as they were supposed to get off the train.

Jeremy followed after Skylar as they made their way out of the train station. The distance between them

was neither close nor far.

According to the map, there was still a long way to their destination. The production team didn’t send a

car over to pick them up. Evidently, they regarded their actors with little respect.

Jeremy cursed under his breath, “They couldn’t even be bothered to send a sedan over. We have to pay

for the transportation fees by ourselves! What sort of treatment is this?”

Skylar concurred with Jeremy, thinking that the crew disrespected them. However, she wanted to

distinguish herself from Jeremy, not wanting to be under the same grading as him. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

She managed to hail a taxi by the side of the road. The moment the car door swung open, Jeremy shot

inside without even sparing her a glance and shut the door after him.

Skylar was furious. “What do you think you’re doing? I was the one who hailed this cab!”

Jeremy rolled down the window. “Well, I got in first. Get in! Who knows when is the next taxi coming? We

can share the taxi fare.”

Skylar looked up at the sky in frustration. Dear God, what did I do to deserve this!

Don’t make Jeremy appear in front of me ever again.

Who would even bother splitting the taxi fare! Jeremy was one of the most miserly people she had ever

met.

Tobias was right! How pathetic of me to fall for a thrash like Jeremy!

Skylar sat in the seat next to the driver—where the payor would usually sit.

When they arrived at the taxi terminal, Skylar swiped her card on the card reader while Jeremy got out of

the car.

Skylar went to the boot of the car and took out her luggage. She called out to Jeremy and reminded him,

“The cab fare costs twenty-eight. Please transfer me your share, thanks.”

Jeremy looked sulkily at her. “I can’t believe you’re really asking me for it! No matter how you look at it,

we’ve been lovers for such a long time.”

A smile appeared on Skylar’s delicate face. “If I can even put a number to it, you owe me more than your

share of cab fare. Stop spouting rubbish and pay up right now.”

Jeremy transferred the money over to her, looking extremely reluctant. His gaze fell on her luggage,

which had a Louis Vuitton logo emblazoned on it.

“Where did you even get that luggage? I can’t believe you’re dragging around a fake branded item when

you aren’t even famous yet. Look how vain and shallow you are.”

Skylar clenched her fists, feeling a sudden urge to slap Jeremy across the face. She calmed herself

down and smiled broadly at him. “It was a gift from my boyfriend!”

A vein throbbed in Jeremy’s neck. How could she have the money for a luxurious suitcase if she could

barely afford the plane ticket? It is all very suspicious.

The filming site was in the countryside—the production crew had selected the location half a year ago.

During the entire way there, Jeremy complained about the producer’s decision to film in such a deserted

area.

Although he was whining non-stop, he was actually feeling overjoyed. He had been stewing in a state of

excitement these past few days.

Acting in a movie produced by Daryl Williams was a straight ticket to stardom.

The bus shook all the way to the shooting location, finally arriving at Knoxville Town. The conditions in

this shanty town were worse than her expectations.
