Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 491

Skylar didn’t see Tobias off, as she was not in the mood to move at all. She was no courtesan, so there was no need for her to act like one by feigning coyness after having served a client and murmuring coquettishly, “Do hit me up again next time, handsome.”

Noticing that Tobias was leaving just after a few hours, Madelyn felt sorry for Skylar as a woman who had experienced much herself.

Good heavens! He’s making it clear as day that he just came over to seek his gratification! No woman will be able to remain unfazed when the man simply leaves after using her body for pleasure. It would’ve been better if he’d just stayed the night. I wonder if he’s already married and has a wife and kids, so he can’t stay out overnight, she mused.

Meanwhile, Skylar was scrolling through her Instagram page. A former classmate of hers during junior high school uploaded a picture of a newborn baby.

Oh well, another person has gotten married and has a baby, accomplishing all that’s important in life. She could feel her friend’s happiness radiating off the screen. Others’ relationships have all come to fruition, but mine hasn’t even budded. I wonder how Penelope, who did things the other way round, is doing.

She was currently burying her head in the sand, afraid to contact Penelope since she kept hounding her like a dog with a bone about joining the entertainment industry.

She had gone to Kate, but the latter threw Penelope’s photo to the side after a single glance. Then, she went on to say that Penelope wasn’t beautiful enough besides having had a baby. The entertainment industry was no charity institution, so the requirements were much higher than that.

The group chat with her former classmates started pinging with messages again, but Skylar rarely chimed in since she had nothing much to say.

Nonetheless, some would still ask whether she was there, for they all thought that she was now rolling in money after joining the entertainment industry and was eager to ask her for a loan.

Even those who never had a conversation with her asked for a loan to repay their credit card debts, housing loans, and so on.

In short, there were various reasons for that. In the beginning, she lent them some money within her ability, but not a single person paid her back. At that, she realized their true colors and no longer did so most of the time.

And that was precisely why there were rumors on the Internet that she became arrogant after becoming famous and blacklisted most of her former classmates.

As Empyrean Sword was set to be broadcasted soon, Skylar was going to another city to promote the movie early next morning. She got up at five o’clock in the morning and arrived at the airport at almost seven o’clock.

She deliberately applied no makeup in hopes that pictures of her barefaced at the airport would leak out. After all, Kate once said that her countenance was exquisite without any makeup.
