Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 770

“Tobias, doesn't your company invest in others? I'm sure you're ready to provide capital for any good projects, right?”

“That's enough, Mom! Drop this topic already,” Skylar yelled at Miranda, wanting the latter to stop speaking.

Miranda rolled her eyes at her daughter and sighed. Apart from her worrying intelligence, she's a great gal in every way. Why is she siding with an outsider and putting his needs first even before getting married? After all, this amount of money means nothing to Tobias. My request is not at all unreasonable when he has actually allowed his brother to spend tens of millions on villas and luxury houses for an online influencer!

Tobias ignored Skylar's eye signal and accepted the business proposal that Miranda handed to him. What a high-end title they have given to this project!

As he flipped through the pages, he foresaw there would not be any returns on his capital. He knew he would lose his investment forever.

Meanwhile, Miranda kept promoting the project shamelessly. She even used a series of professional jargon to make herself look like a credible businesswoman.

“How much investment capital is needed, and what's the profit ratio? How much risk do you need to bear? In which year can dividends be expected? By the way, where is this project headquartered, and how big is the company?” Tobias peppered his questions, seeking a clear understanding.

He merely asked Miranda several basic questions, but those seemingly straightforward inquiries left the woman floundering, unable to provide a single answer, let alone a satisfactory one.

Yet, she replied confidently, “Trust me, Tobias, Skylar. I've studied this project inside out, and there's absolutely no problem with it. If there was, I wouldn't be so persistent. You know, I'll become a multimillionaire as well as the one in charge of the company in a year's time.”

Ignorance is bliss, Tobias said in his heart upon hearing her bold statements.

He could tell that Miranda would never believe him if he were to tell her bluntly that the project was all a scam.

Standing in between her mother and Tobias, Skylar looked the latter in the eyes and urged, “Don't mind her. She's utterly blinded by greed. She doesn't have the foresight for investment but insists on being an entrepreneur like many others. I bet she won't even realize when she makes losses.”
