Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 231

Skylar took out some baked beans from the fridge. “What’s wrong with that? You should have told me This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

earlier. I didn’t have time to come back and cook.”

Tobias put down his cutlery and sighed, his appetite long gone.

Seeing how reluctant he was to eat the pasta, Skylar put the baked beans away and took out two eggs

and a bell pepper. “I can make you an omelet if you want.”

“I had some eggs from breakfast,” Tobias said.

“No one’s stopping you from having another one at night.”

“I’m getting old. I need to watch my cholesterol level.”

Skylar burst out laughing. What am I supposed to say? ‘No! You’re not old!’?

She put the eggs back into the fridge and rummaged around for ideas.

“Grilled chicken?”

“No.”

“Fish stew?”

“Don’t like it.”

“BBQ ribs?”

“Doesn’t sound very appetizing.”

Skylar hissed in exasperation and slammed the fridge door shut.

She tossed a bottle of water at him. “You’re having water for dinner then!”

Tobias grinned. I like how she’s showing her true colors in front of me. Things won’t be so boring with her

around.

To Skylar’s surprise, Tobias downed the bottle of water and called it a day.

“I’ve settled your friend’s matter,” Tobias said as he lit a cigarette while lounging on the sofa. “Tell her to

be more careful next time.”

Skylar put down the mop in her hands. “I just gave her another two hundred thousand. You don’t have to

get yourself involved, you know.”

Tobias was not very happy with how determined she was to keep him out of her matters. “You didn’t

withdraw any money from your card. Where did the two hundred thousand even come from?”

“I gave her my salary for my latest movie,” she said with a sigh.

As a new actress, her commissions were worth around a tenth of veteran actresses, and she had given

all of her payment away.

“Everything?”

“Yes, everything,” Skylar said, nodding.

Tobias turned around to glance at her. “Including my gift?”

Skylar jumped as she remembered her promise to Tobias to get him a watch after she got her payment.

She figured that a reasonably-priced watch was sufficient, but she had completely forgotten about it the

moment Penelope told her about her sob story.

Tobias, on the other hand, was not going to let her forget about it so easily.

Skylar rubbed her temples in regret. Urgh… why did I make that promise in the first place?

“Sorry… I guess it’s gone now,” she said, scooting over to rest her head on his chest, only to flinch away

when she came dangerously close to his lit cigarette.

Tobias snuffed the flame hurriedly and gazed at her doe-like eyes before leaning down to plant a kiss on

her forehead. “How are you going to repay me then? Is your period over?”

After his failed attempt last night, Skylar could tell that he was getting irritated. He hated being told to

keep his hands off her body every few weeks.

She nodded, her face flushed. “Getting in bed with you instead of spending money to get you a watch?

Sounds like a deal to me.”

Tobias patted her backside and went upstairs to shower.

As he showered, Penelope surprised Skylar by returning the two hundred thousand she gave her, and

her voice was trembling with gratitude in the phone call that followed.

“Honey, I don’t know who did it, but my debts are all gone! I’m forever indebted to whoever returned the

money for me!”
