Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 173

This wasn’t a catwalk runway. The place she was at was dirty and dusty. After work, all Skylar wanted was to dress comfortably.

It never crossed her mind to dress sexily in order to please Tobias.

She had always liked dressing up this way since she was a child, preferring unisex clothes that were simple and comfortable compared to skirts.

“Alright, I’ll go change.” Skylar opened the closet to look for something else to wear.

After rummaging through the closet only to find more cartoon-printed T-shirts, she finally gave up.

“I don’t have any nice clothes, so you’re gonna have to bear with this.” She shrugged nonchalantly.

“Change your pants then. It looks odd. And what are the big holes for? Saving cost on fabric?” Tobias simply couldn’t accept her pauper-looking overalls.

His OCD seemed to be acting up again as he had the strong urge to sew the holes on Skylar’s overalls shut.

Left without a choice, Skylar obediently found a pair of skinny jeans.

Tobias’ gaze fell on her as she emptied out the pockets.

All of them were small and disorganized items; a strawberry hairpin, an almost empty packet of tissue, and earphone cords that were severely entangled.

One by one, she placed the things on the table.

Tobias shook his head at her. “Are all girls so sloppy?”

“Not really. Are you calling me sloppy?” Skylar asked.

Tobias withheld his answer, certain that he would only get into an argument with Skylar if he did not.

Even so, his silence was already an answer. He stood up and carefully untangled Skylar’s earphones.

Skylar felt slightly rueful for being bad at pretending to be something she was not.

Perhaps I should at least pretend to be elegant, considerate, and classy. But… I really could not care less about my appearance.

Checking his watch, Tobias decided that it was time to leave with Skylar.

Tobias glanced at Skylar. “What do you think?”

This was quite a tempting offer to her. Pursing her lips, she replied, “I think it’s up for consideration.”

Skylar no longer wanted to be alone and running around like a headless chicken on the set.

“I will make Skylar famous within two years,” Daryl promised.

At that, Tobias’ gaze on her turned slightly chilly and he turned a deaf ear to her answer.

Meanwhile, Daryl had begun outlining Skylar’s future in an animated manner.

“She won’t sign,” Tobias flatly rejected.

Daryl’s excited chatter came to an abrupt halt.

While nursing his drink, Kai refuted unhappily, “Tobias, you’re being too controlling. This is Skylar’s own business and it’s her decision to make. You do know that she’s not your plaything, right?”
