Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 641

Chapter 641 Living Like A Princess When She Could Not Afford To
“Isn't she single? Who are the two men in the private room?”

The waitresses were too busy gossiping to notice Tobias, one of the men in the private room, standing behind them.

Tobias was evidently unhappy when he took out his credit card, but he didn't argue with them because he didn't want to stoop to their level.

The waitresses exchanged awkward glances with one another before scurrying away.

The cashier, who happened to be the one who gossiped the most just now, was left alone at the counter.

Gavin scoffed, “A hundred for an omelet? The price is ridiculous. How do you expect customers to not complain?”

The cashier lowered her head and kept quiet.

“Bill please,” Tobias grunted.

When the cashier saw Tobias' black card, she realized that celebrities would only go out with rich guys.

“Ms. Jones has settled the bill.”

Tobias put his card back into his wallet. If not for their years of friendship, Gavin would have thought that Tobias flashed his card on purpose to show off his status.

Tobias was rather old-fashioned in certain ways. As he hadn't gotten used to contactless payment, he always paid with either card or cash.

Even the street hawkers had QR codes for digital payment. For some, keeping spare change was considered outdated.

Meanwhile, after taking Penelope's call, Skylar agreed to meet her at a dessert store near their high school.

Back when she was poor, she would only order a glass of blueberry-flavored bubble tea which was six per glass.

When her grandmother found out about it, she scolded her for wasting money and living like a princess when she couldn't afford to.

They were of the same age, but Penelope's appearance had aged after giving birth and getting dumped by the man she loved.

Skylar ordered two cups of hot cocoa and some egg tarts.

Even though it was a dessert shop, the only food the shop sold was egg tarts. It was not surprising that the shop hadn't been doing well.

Staring at the students who were passing by through the window, Penelope heaved a sigh. “High school seems like a few decades ago even when it hasn't been that long. I remember back then I wanted to graduate and start working so badly, but now I'll give anything to go back to those years. If only time can be reversed...”

Skylar's thoughts wandered as Penelope brought up the past.

That was a time when Skylar's summer was full of the smell of the fresh grass and the warmth of the sunlight. A can of soda and a cone of ice cream were good enough for her. And when the night fell, she would watch the sunset and daydream about all the romantic things that could happen to her.

Back then, there was no scheming, deception or jealousy.
