Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 179

Claudia raised her hand to tug Tobias back. “It’s my birthday today. Don’t answer it, I’m sure your work can wait.”

Tanya lifted her head to look at him and said considerately, “Tobias, you can just answer it here. We won’t make a sound until you’re done.”

Tobias declined the call, not wanting to get into a dispute with his mother during her birthday celebration because of a woman while his relatives were around.

Claudia was happy with his decision.

“When are you going to move back, Tobias?” Tanya inched closer to him, her honeyed voice grating on his nerves.

While Claudia was chatting with their relatives, Tobias led Tanya out of the private room.

As Tanya got up, she cautiously guarded her belly with both hands.

Upon seeing the two of them leave, Tobias’ uncle asked, “No wonder the wedding’s been postponed. Turns out his wife is pregnant. Why didn’t you share such wonderful news with us, Claudia?”

Claudia’s expression turned slightly embarrassed. How could I? Was I supposed to say that my son doesn’t want to acknowledge his wife and unborn child?

If I did, my son would seem just like his b*stard of a father who discarded women like they were nothing.

Tobias turned to close the door behind him. He and Tanya were standing in the corridor, and the expression on his face was sullen.

“So when are you going to leave?”

Tanya caressed her belly while standing mere inches away from Tobias. “Why should I leave? You should come home once you’ve settled your mess outside. It’s time to concentrate on raising this child together.”

If it weren’t for his self-restraint that kept him from laying a hand on a pregnant woman, he would have slapped Tanya across the face by now.
