Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708 Provide For You For The Rest Of Your Life
It was clear that Tobias had little understanding of women's emotions. Often, women preferred to hear flattering lies compared to the truth as they wished to be praised as if they were ethereal beauties.

Skylar replied, “Nope. I'm on a diet. I want my eyes and brows to look prettier.”

Tobias could sense her jealousy, but he did not understand why she reacted in such a manner. I was just giving my honest opinion.

After instructing Skylar to wait by the door, Tobias retrieved a carton of milk from the refrigerator. He placed it in the microwave and heated it for approximately thirty seconds before handing it to her. “You need to replenish some protein. I'll drive you today. Where would you like to go?”

Skylar accepted the offer without any reservations.

With the cold air sweeping in the previous night, the outside temperature abruptly dropped to zero degrees. As they made their way to the car, Skylar instinctively hunched her shoulders, shivering from the piercing cold.

Tobias had not anticipated such extreme cold, especially with the biting morning wind that seemed to penetrate one's bones. I should have warmed up the car first before asking Skylar to come out.

Regardless of how luxurious the car was, without the warm air circulating inside, it felt as frigid as an ice cellar. As Skylar entered the car, her body shivered uncontrollably.

Despite not being known for being talkative, Tobias could not resist remarking, “You always dress so lightly. When you're older, you'll regret it when illnesses come knocking. You may not realize it now in your youth, but you'll regret it later.”

Skylar could not help but be reminded of her grandmother by his remark, and it made her ponder if that was how elderly people tended to nag all the time.

Due to her slender physique, Skylar lacked the insulation of body fat that could help keep her warm in the cold weather.

Tobias adjusted the car's heater to its maximum setting and, after changing gears, held the steering wheel with one hand while tightly gripping Skylar's hand with the other. “If you were in her position, what would you do?”

Having read the news and pondered similar scenarios before, Skylar responded without hesitation, “I would undoubtedly stay and care for him. I can't just abandon him since I care about him.”

However, Tobias' demeanor remained indifferent. “Even regular couples can grow weary of each other after a lifetime of marriage and raising children, let alone dealing with someone like him. No one will be touched by your action, except for yourself. You'll simply be wasting your entire life on such a man.”

Skylar inserted a straw into the warm milk, and while biting down on it, she said, “Your thoughts terrify me. I guess I'll have to prioritize taking good care of myself and avoiding unfortunate circumstances, just in case you leave me during a difficult time.”

Tobias elaborated on his reasoning. “We mustn't be overly naïve if we want to survive in this world. I'm referring to human nature in general, so there is no need for you to fret. Perhaps, my sole redeeming quality is my financial stability, so don't worry, I won't abandon you. Even if you were to lose consciousness, I would remain by your side, caring for you throughout your lifetime.”
