Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 134

Upon hearing that, a slightly strained smile crept onto Skylar’s face. Naturally, she did not buy Avery’s words. In fact, she knew that Thomas probably wished she never existed.

With reluctance, Skylar got out of the car at the residential area entrance that only seemed to bring back bad memories.

She took in a deep breath when she thought about the possibility of Miranda throwing a crazy tantrum.

After Avery knocked on the door, a servant came over to answer it.

The servant immediately took Avery’s classic LV bag from her hands while giving Skylar, the abandoned daughter, a once-over. Indifference was written all over the face of the servant, who did not even offer her a pair of indoor slippers from the shoe rack. Instead, she merely gave her some shoe covers.

Her eyes were filled with disdain as she sized Skylar up.

Having worked for the Joneses for many years, the servant had long since heard that Thomas had another child who grew up in the streets and was an unruly girl without discipline.

Meanwhile, Avery’s face beamed with excitement as she called out, “Dad, I’m back. Is the food ready? I’m starving.”

Hearing that, Thomas came out of the kitchen with an apron wrapped around his waist and gazed at Avery adoringly. “Yes, it’s ready. I was just waiting for you to come home. I cooked some honeyed pork ribs and BBQ beef ribs.”

Right after saying that, Thomas realized his mistake and quickly corrected, “I mean, I was waiting for the two of you.”

Skylar disliked Thomas’ pretentious behavior because she was aware that her presence was unwanted in this house.

“Where’s my mom? You said she’d be here,” Skylar asked.

Thomas shot a puzzled gaze at Avery.

Avery hastily explained with a tinge of guilt, “Dad asked the doctor about it. Unfortunately, your mother’s condition isn’t very stable, so she can’t come out for the time being.”

At that instant, Skylar finally agreed with Tobias’ words.

He often called her foolish and told her to use her brain. But she was refused to heed his advice and thought that he was just being judgmental.

She believed that if she had given birth to a son, Thomas would never have divorced her for Irene. That was why Miranda preferred boys over girls and saw her daughter as a liability ever since.

Thomas waved Hayden over and chided, “Aren’t you going to welcome your sister, Hayden?”

However, the arrogant Hayden did not even spare Skylar a glance. “She’s not my sister. I only have one sister, and that’s Avery. Both of you being in the same space should be interesting to watch.”

Skylar was not eager to have him as her brother either, even though they shared the same father.

On the other hand, Avery was secretly gloating. Her brother had always pampered her since young. She couldn’t understand what her father was thinking, trying to get him to acknowledge Skylar as his sister.

To ease the tension hovering in the air, Thomas urged everyone to take their seats at the dining table. He had personally prepared the food today and had been busy in the kitchen since this morning.

Everything he cooked was basically Avery and Hayden’s favorite food.
