Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 69

With her improving dramatics chops, he could imagine how much effort she must have devoted towards honing her craft around Claudia.

As Tanya watched him depart, the anguish on her face faded to nothing. Tobias was an astute one. Therefore, she was beginning to rue her decision, as now, she had to fret about where she might be able to find herself a baby.

The receptionist informed Tobias that Skylar had already checked out. His cellphone and watch were returned to him in a zipper bag. Anyone else who came across this might have taken it for a bequeathment if they did not know better.

When he got back to the villa, the wardrobe doors were wide open. Every compartment he checked turned up empty.

His lips twitched as he stuck a hand in his pocket. “Scurried off like a mouse, she did.”

May fortune favor the good.

The last line on the note she left by the side table creased between his fingers. The man was no good person, and he was not ready for their transactional relationship to end.

More accurately, he was not tired of her youthful body. He was not usually into girls her age, but to him, she was a novelty. The thought of letting her off so easily was a little disconcerting.

Twenty-year-old like her straddled maturity and adolescence. A blank canvas such as Skylar deserved an artist like him. It would be a pity should she end up in the hands of another.

The man was confident that she would come back to him, even though she was a bit of a handful. He liked women who were pliant and submissive, being never one for the thrill of the chase.

He had called several times but without success, as his number had been blacklisted. It was just as well that she was so thorough, since bombarding someone over the phone was not amongst his inclinations either.
