Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 481

Well, I can’t think of any other possibilities for that other than this being the doing of the Joneses. After all, they want to drag my reputation through the mud without tarnishing the reputation of the Jones Family. And it just so happens that I’ve got to attend a charity gala tonight. If I guess correctly, I’ll definitely be the center of attention there, with reporters hounding me.

“So, this is the kind of woman you fancy?” Claudia, who just had a change of attitude toward Skylar, was presently foaming at the mouth.

Tobias himself had only learned about Skylar’s scandal having spread like wildfire overnight moments ago. As such, he could understand why she was so worked up.

After all, the elderly believed everything they read. No matter how shrewd Claudia was, she still sent him some asinine news every so often, such as claims that cotton candy was made of cotton and how Coke couldn’t be drunk with Red Bull.

“The news is fake. Considering Skylar’s personality, she would never pick on someone else. Besides, her mother’s affairs have nothing to do with her. She’s also a victim,” he mollified.

“Hmph! You’re always defending her! I don’t quite believe in her character,” Claudia huffed. “Say, how is she better than Tanya? Alas, luck wasn’t on Tanya’s side. She went off her rocker, and she couldn’t tie you to her with a child either. If it weren’t for the accident back then…”

At the thought of that, she became dispirited. How greatly had I sinned in my previous life that everyone has grandchildren, yet I’m still all alone here in this huge mansion?

Sick of her nagging, Tobias interjected, “There’s a charity gala I’ve promised to attend tonight, so I won’t be having dinner with you.”

Only then did Claudia remember about the charity gala, and it was an event that Tobias was only attending because of her.

Nonetheless, she felt that the hefty sum he donated every year was also for his benefit since it would amass blessings for himself.

When Tobias arrived at the venue, he skipped walking down the red carpet since he wasn’t a celebrity. And even if the organizer had wanted him to do so, they didn’t have that much sway with him.

He went straight up to the VIP seating on the second floor. Before he came over, he learned that Skylar would also be attending the event tonight.

After her scandal broke out, he didn’t call her to comfort her at once because he felt that she should be aware of what she would face in the future since she had chosen this path.

When he lifted his hand, his assistant immediately handed him a pair of binoculars that enabled him to see the red carpet clearly.
