Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 106

Seeing that Skylar hadn’t taken off her coat, the germophobic Tobias couldn’t help but started, “I’ll help you take off your coat. It’s just too dirty coming back from the hospital in it. It must be full of bacteria by now.”

Skylar didn’t want to move at all. She lay in the bed like a dried and worn-out sponge with her hand tugging tightly at the quilt as she shook her head.

With much difficulty, Tobias suppressed his impulse to drag Skylar up to change her clothes. Then, he turned around to open the wardrobe instead but found it empty within.

He suddenly remembered that when Skylar moved out, she packed everything and left nothing behind.

She had so few clothes that she couldn’t bear to leave any of them here and once she left, she had no plan of returning.

“Don’t sleep just yet. I’ll go prepare the medicine. Take them before you sleep.” Tobias took the medication out and read the instructions carefully.

Skylar shook her head and answered, “I don’t want to take them. It’s awful, Meredith.”

As she was half-awake, she mistook the person who was taking care of her when she was sick as Meredith.

Tobias paused briefly in his tracks and then left to get some warm water for her to be taken together with the medicine.

When he returned to the room. Skylar was already curled up in the quilt, with only her puny yet pale face showing underneath. Nevertheless, she was still strikingly beautiful.

“Be a good girl and take the medicine.” He put the glass on the bedside.

Then, he lifted Skylar’s shoulder up effortlessly and let her lean in his arms. He could feel her skin still burning.

Taking the glass and placing it near Skylar’s lips, he said, “After you take this medicine, I need to go to bed as well. I still have some business to attend to before noon.”

Again, his deep and soft voice coaxing her gently was exceedingly pleasing to the ears. Tobias, who hadn’t slept for over three nights was a little exhausted as well.

He noticed that sometimes, he could get some good and peaceful nights of sleep around Skylar. There were certain days when he even doubted if Skylar had drugged him.

Skylar was now immune to Tobias’ rare tenderness, and she shook her head. “It’s too bitter and hard to swallow. I’ll take it later.”

It suddenly dawned on Tobias. What am I doing here? Coaxing a child? He despised troublesome women. But here he was, putting up with Skylar so patiently.
