Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 198

He had always planned everything without discussing it with her or even notifying her in advance.

Tobias didn’t introduce her as she tightened her grip on her bag and sat beside him. Also, no one dared to ask what their relationship was.

As she quietly sat beside Tobias, he barely said anything to her throughout dinner. Feeling thirsty, she saw that the glass in front of her was empty. Furthermore, there was only wine on the table. Hence, she grabbed a bottle beside Tobias and poured it into her glass.

However, Tobias took her glass away and downed the wine in one gulp. Next, he called for the waiter and ordered a glass of warm fruit juice.

Despite the room being cold from the air-conditioning, Skylar was so thirsty that she wanted to have iced fruit juice instead. Warm fruit juice was simply too sour to her liking.

Other than her, all the other ladies at the table could really drink. Their male companions kept refilling their glasses as they kept downing one glass after another.

One of the girls looked to be of her age and was dressed provocatively. Her plunging neckline was so low that she exposed a substantial part of her assets. Despite the fact that she was visibly uncomfortable, a man in a blue shirt who was sitting beside her kept urging her to drink.

She tried to protest, “Mr. Crane, can I stop drinking? I can’t drink anymore and I feel terrible.”

The man sneered, “Stop whining. You should be honored that I’m asking you to drink. It’s only two bottles and you’re already complaining?”

Under such pressure, the girl seemed to be on the brink of tears. Raising her glass, she downed it at one go. Skylar could see her face turn pale and her hands had begun to tremble.

When she looked at the bottle of liquor on the table, she realized that its alcohol content was at forty percent. Even a tough guy would have trouble holding his liquor with the amount the lady drank.

As everyone continued to chat, no one came to the girl’s rescue.

They were all talking about business. From Bitcoin to futures and to crude oil. Everything they talked about revolved around financial gains.
