Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665 Burning Bridges
Colleen called the next morning to notify Skylar that they would be celebrating Thomas' birthday the following day for fear of Skylar going back on her word at the last minute.

Skylar gazed out of the window as she stirred her coffee absent-mindedly.

She had not quite forgiven Avery for having Charles kidnap her and intended to keep a distance from the Joneses for the time being.

I can't keep making excuses for Avery anymore. I have been too tolerant of her abuse which has become even worse as time passed.

Although it was high time that the saga of their animosity come to a conclusion, Skylar remained hopeful of the possibility that the evidence could be corroborated to reveal Avery's true colors.

I'll show everyone that she's a two-faced, vicious, and manipulative woman. But then again, how many people would believe me? Besides, the only evidence is Charles' words. After taking the money I offered him, it would be even more unlikely that he will help me expose her.

At that infuriating thought, Skylar threw the spoon into the ceramic cup with a discordant clang.

She had even pondered the matter from Tobias' perspective. What would I do if I were him?

Skylar poured away the remaining coffee into the sink. As they had run out of milk and sugar, the black coffee was torturous to her palette.

After washing the cup, she went up to the study in search of Tobias.

It did not seem as if he intended to leave the house that day. Having been in the study the entire morning, he had not come downstairs even once.

Skylar pushed open the door to the smoky room billowing from the cigarette between Tobias' fingers. She knew from the earpiece in his right ear that he was conducting a virtual meeting.
