Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 269

In fact, Tobias had a fiancée once, but they never went through with the marriage. Susan heard she had a mental breakdown and was institutionalized in a mental hospital.

Only Tobias himself knew what happened between them.

Susan knew that, stripped of his charisma, Tobias would be nothing more than an average hostile, dangerous playboy. This was why she constantly reminded herself not to fall for him.

Her boss would rather remain a bachelor for life than being bogged down by marriage and the demands of one singular woman.

Just as Susan was leaving the room, she bumped into Eva at the door.

Susan shot her a look. Eva had a rather lovesick look on her face, and Susan’s expression turned rather critical.

The office had just hired a few assistants. Eva was objectively the best-looking one out of all of them. Susan feared that she might have developed a few strange ideas. Eva was a pretty good worker, and she completed all her tasks wonderfully.

Tobias tore his gaze from his phone and looked up at Eva. “Is there something wrong?”

“Mr. Ford, the weather has been rather cold lately. My mother made some soup to thank you for taking such good care of me. Please drink some—it’ll do wonders for your health.” Eva placed the canister of soup on his desk and made to twist open the cover.

Tobias leaned back in his chair and continued reading his documents, looking utterly unruffled.

“Mr. Ford, you should drink while it’s hot,” Eva persisted. The silence in the room was making her uncomfortable.

“First, I’ve never extended any special treatment towards you. Second, I hate soup—they make me sick and taste horrible to boot. Besides, do we know each other very well? You don’t have to be so concerned about me.”

Tobias drew blood with every word. Eva felt as though someone had just emptied a bucket of ice-cold water on her head. She put the lid back onto the canister.

The wild, savage expression in Tobias’ eyes frightened her.
