Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 340

Skylar shook her head. “Your timing’s perfect, cause I’m afraid I’d be labeled as a liar on Christmas if you didn’t show up.”

Skylar caught Eva’s shell-shocked expression at the corner of her eye. There was probably no way the latter could ever conceive that all these could be true.

As much as Skylar disliked the notion of playing a damsel in distress, or instrumentalizing her man to inflate her own prestige, she felt like she had to make a compelling statement in response to the years of repression she had endured.

This time, it was Skylar’s moment in the sun. She wrapped her hands around Tobias’ arm and proceeded to introduce him. “Everyone, meet my boyfriend, Tobias Ford. He is the CEO of Ford Group as well as Eva’s boss.

Tobias understood Skylar’s intended role for him here as a living prop.

Eva smiled awkwardly as her world came crashing down around her, while the relatives who laughed along earlier all clammed up.

When Tobias settled down next to Skylar, Miranda astutely relocated herself to make way. Her face was beyond smug. “That’s what I’ve been telling you all along. Believe it or not, Tobias and Skylar have been together for a long time. And Eva, you have your cousin to thank for being so well treated by him.”

Eva felt a tightness in her own chest and nearly died inside.

Skylar held Tobias’ hand and placed it upon her own thigh. “Have you been taking good care of my cousin? You know, you really don’t have to worry too much for her, cause she’s actually very independent and has her entire future planned out and all that.”

“What are you suggesting, Skylar?” Eva finally broke her silence as this was driving her nuts.

Skylar looked perplexedly at Eva. “I wasn’t saying anything. Just making conversation, that’s all. Isn’t that what you said so yourself? That you always have a plan for everything? I was just reminding my darling here not to be too nosy.”

The manner by which the word “darling” rolled off Skylar’s tongue bordered on shamelessness.

Tobias said staidly, “Not sure how you’d define good, but I treat all my staff equally.”
