Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 46

Skylar stood at the door, dumbstruck.

Standing before her was a woman dressed in an elegant dress full of exquisite embroideries. The lady didn’t look her age, which was a clear sign that she maintained herself well.

“Come on in.” Skylar hurriedly tied her own messy hair into a ponytail.

“Has Tobias just left?” asked Claudia.

Skylar nodded before immediately shaking her head. “I don’t know where he is.”

A dark gleam flashed in Claudia’s eyes. This girl doesn’t even bat an eyelid when she lies.

“You look young, Ms. Jones. Are you below twenty-five?” Claudia eyed the young woman from head to toe.

Skylar pursed her lips. “I just turned twenty this year.”

Claudia beamed as her eyes dazzled. “Tobias is over ten years older than you, Ms. Jones. You’re practically still a kid; why would you do such unchaste things? He doesn’t have time to play childish games with you.”

The older woman spoke gently, and there was even a warm smile on her face.

Yet, Skylar felt as though she had just been stabbed by a thousand knives.

Should I tell her about all the wonderful deeds her son has done to me, then?

Despite that, she dared not tell the truth. Her mother’s treatment depended on Tobias, and considering how vengeful this man could be, there was no way he would easily forgive her if she were to reveal his actions.

Knowing this, Skylar gave in. “Don’t worry. I won’t ruin his family, and I’m more than willing to back out.”

She spoke with a flawless smile on her face.

Then, Laura came over with some tea, not forgetting to spare Skylar a smug glance as though she had been anticipating this day since forever.

Skylar readily glanced back at Laura.
