Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 260

Eva: How is Aunt Miranda doing? Don’t worry too much. You have to trust the justice system. There’s just some stuff that we can’t control.

Skylar scoffed. If Eva was telling her to “trust the justice system”, then clearly she had already predicted the outcome of this situation. She had suspected that Eva had something to do with the police showing up at her house, and now here she was, pretending to care about Skylar.

Having nothing to say to Eva, Skylar decided to ignore her messages.

It was two in the morning when Tobias finally reappeared. Skylar instantly got to her feet as he walked towards her, asking him, “What happened?”

He didn’t offer a response, instead waiting for a while until a hysterical Miranda was eventually brought out by the police.

When the police had told her that she was innocent and free to leave, she nearly fainted from excitement, thanking every god and deity out there for watching over her.

This was the start of Tobias and Miranda’s awkward first meeting at a police station.

He took the initiative to introduce himself by greeting her and saying, “Hello, I am Skylar’s boyfriend.”

Taken aback, Miranda began recomposing herself, visibly nervous from how tightly she was gripping her skirt. “What should I call you? I am so grateful to you for getting me out of there.”

“Just call me Tobias,” he answered, smiling. “And you’re welcome. I’ll be sending you home now.”

Miranda still looked apprehensive. “I won’t be arrested again, right? This whole ordeal has really taken a toll on my weak heart.”

“As long as I’m around, you will not get arrested, so you don’t have to worry about that,” Tobias promised.

Skylar let out a long sigh of relief. Now, there was another issue for which she was indebted to him.

The chief of police walked them right to the entrance of the police station, going on and on about “having caused trouble for Mr. Ford”.

But Tobias didn’t hold back. “I hope similar incidents of arresting innocent citizens never occur again,” Tobias told him, blatantly gaslighting the chief of police into believing that it was his men who were at fault.
