Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 262

Skylar attributed her damned curiosity and pessimism to her Scorpio sun sign.

Even today, she felt that there was no single part of her that was worthy of being Tobias’ girlfriend. Everyone always said that “confident women are the prettiest women”, but she could only resort to finding her self-confidence in Tobias’ companionship.

Her home environment while growing up affected her in a very negative and unhealthy way. It was exactly why she was so desperate to prove herself, it was exactly why she wanted to discover her self-worth, and it was exactly why she wanted to become perfect. Pursuing those ideals was the only thing she was absolutely determined and confident in.

Looking up at him, she realized that he seemed tired, a constant wrinkle between his eyebrows.

“Why do you need to go to work so early in the morning if you’re the boss? Can’t you just re-arrange your own schedule? If you leave for the office now, you’ll arrive earlier than even the security guards.”

Tobias could hear the suspicion in Skylar’s questions. She was just beating around the bush because she was insecure.

He preferred girls who were obedient, but at least Skylar hadn’t outright accused him of anything.

“I have to go elsewhere for a meeting and then come back at noon. That’s why I’m leaving so early in the morning. Are you satisfied with this explanation?”

He clearly sounded upset. Is he annoyed because I’m being a busybody?

She waved him away, forcing a near-perfect smile. “Just go. I’ll rest for a while and then go out, too.”

As Skylar trudged up the stairs, Tobias called out after her, “Be careful while you’re home alone and go get some sleep soon.”

Skylar didn’t respond, continuing to walk up the stairs. She was aware that she wasn’t acting right and that her heart felt like it was being squeezed dry inside her chest. It was as if her love for Tobias had completely taken over her entire being, and her emotions fluctuated based on Tobias’ every move and every word.

All of his moods directly determined her own. This could not go on. Her past relationship had been exactly like this, and it was the reason why she had been so deeply hurt.
