Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 388

With that said, she sipped the tea and took out her phone to hand it to Tobias.

Skylar’s name was trending. Ever since the public found out she was going to be one of the main characters of Empyrean Sword, there had been an uproar on the internet.

In fact, the netizens began digging for information as they tried to find an explanation for why she could get such a great show at a young age. Most of them were talking about how she must have had a relationship with Maverick Sullivan.

They were saying that Maverick was her sugar daddy.

Curling his lips, Tobias commented, “They’ve got quite the imagination. Maverick’s already six feet under, but somehow, he’s still someone’s sugar daddy.”

Tobias rarely bothered himself with news of the entertainment industry, and Maverick’s death had not been anything major.

That was why Skylar paled and asked, “Did you have anything to do with Maverick’s death?”

He did not disagree with her as he smiled. In a nonchalant tone, he replied, “Of course he had to die, but don’t feel guilty about it. I just don’t like the sight of him.”

Skylar could not find the words to describe what she was feeling. She could only grit out, “He was wrong to molest me when he was drunk, but that doesn’t mean he deserves to die. Tobias, how could you be cruel?”

The smile was still on Tobias’ face as he replied, “Cruel? This isn’t cruel. I’m just cleaning up trash. Moreover, this has nothing to do with you. Don’t get yourself all sensitive and think that Maverick died because of you.”

Skylar’s brows drew together. “He laid a hand on me when he was drunk previously, but you’re telling me his death has nothing to do with that? He doesn’t deserve death for that.”

Before Tobias’ words, she never thought that Tobias had anything to do with the matter; she always thought Kai had been the one to do it.

Tobias was right. It was time for her to be smarter. She then messaged her assistant, Hannah, asking her to buy some supplements that helped with boosting brainpower.

After her afternoon tea, she returned to the office. Tobias had not chosen to return with her, and Skylar knew why—he wanted to avoid the public from finding out about their relationship.

In their relationship, Tobias was the one who wanted to conceal the other party.

Just as she stepped foot into the office, she spotted Winnie and Sheldon in the lobby. Recently, the two of them had been going everywhere together. Knowing that Winnie was in a relationship with Sheldon, the staff in the office were careful around her.
