Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 164

 

It was already late afternoon when she finished taking her shower. In the changing room, she called Tobias again. This time, the call went through.

“Aren’t you coming?” she asked.

“I’m still busy,” was his curt reply before he ended the call.

At that instant, she couldn’t help furrowing her brow as her eyes dimmed with disappointment. He’s still busy, which means he probably won’t come tonight.

She had dressed up and starved herself to have dinner with him tonight. However, the higher the hope, the greater the disappointment; she was upset that he stood her up.

Meanwhile, Kai’s assistant, Logan, was leaning against the Mercedes-Benz, waiting for her. The country folks were all surrounding the eye-catching vehicle.

 

As soon as she got in the car, she apologized, “I’m sorry for keeping you waiting so long.”

Logan started the engine while reassuring her, “No worries, Ms. Jones. Mr. Ronalds has ordered me to be at your service. It is no biggie even if I have to wait for you for the entire night.”

 

Oh my, he does have a way with his words, huh, was Skylar’s impression of Logan.

On the journey back, Skylar had no choice but to carry on the conversation with him when the latter kept rattling on about Kai’s friendliness and how nice he treated his employee.

Just then, the ringtone of her phone interrupted their conversation. Without bothering to look at the caller, she answered the call as if it was her lifeline.

“I was busy just now, but now I’m free. Are you so eager to meet me?” Tobias’s deep voice was heard through the phone.

Skylar took a glance at Logan, who was keeping his ears out. She lowered her voice, whispering on the phone, “Are you on your way? Or are you not coming?”

“I’m not sure if I can arrive in time. Hey, stop changing the topic. Are you so eager to meet me? Do you miss me?”

Feeling shy to admit it when someone was around, she stuttered, “J-just a little, I guess… I-I’m in the car right now, so I’ll talk to you later.”

Before she could end the call, however, Logan suddenly coughed. His voice was loud enough to reach the other side of the line.
