Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 744

“Why are you holding a basin at home?”

Skylar snapped out of her thoughts and picked up the coins disdainfully from the basin. “I'm going to make instant noodles. Do you want some?”

Tobias wasn't interested in having instant noodles, but it wasn't because he considered them junk food. He just didn't have the habit of eating them.

Skylar definitely had a talent for spotting instant noodles. She could tell that there were all sorts of instant noodles from rummaging through their kitchen cabinets, with the most abundant flavor being pickled vegetables.

“Don't instant noodles come in a cup? Why do you need a basin? Are you going to take the noodles out of the cup and put them in a basin?” Tobias asked.

Skylar stood up from the couch. She forgot what she wanted to ask Tobias earlier. She cleared her throat and said, “You really don't know anything about living frugally. Cup noodles cost five each, but the ones in bags are just over one each when they are on sale.”

If Tobias didn't know that Skylar was accustomed to being thrifty, he would have felt like a failure. Anyone who was unaware of the context might think that he couldn't even afford to keep his woman full because she was reluctant to buy cup noodles.

This kind of consumer mindset seemed deeply ingrained in her.

All of a sudden, Tobias recalled what his mother had commented about social class and lifestyle habits.

She had always believed that Skylar and their family were from two different worlds and that they belonged to different social classes. In her opinion, marriage and love still required a match in status.

Perhaps Claudia had forgotten the life that their family used to live in the past.

Tobias tightened his grip on Skylar's wrist because he didn't want her to go to the kitchen.

She tried to struggle from his grip. Although he didn't use much force, she couldn't get rid of his hand.

“Don't always eat instant noodles. Besides, it's Christmas. People may think that I mistreat you.”

Since Skylar was not one to enjoy going out, she wanted to stay at home during the few days of the holiday. However, she wasn't at ease at home because she was constantly monitoring the comments online.

Going to the supermarket and getting groceries with a loved one was quite a happy thing to fantasize about.

However, if they were spotted together at the supermarket, the happiness would come to an abrupt end. She was already in the spotlight, and their public appearance together would only provide solid evidence for the rumors.

After careful consideration, she resisted the temptation and rejected his suggestion, “I don't want to go... It's tiring to shop at the supermarket. I'll just eat whatever we have.”

It was the first time that Tobias had taken the initiative to invite a woman to go to the supermarket, and yet Skylar didn't accept his invitation.

She took out a packet of instant noodles that was grilled beef-flavored. “How about some grilled beef instant noodles for you?”

Tobias' mind was no longer focused on whether they should eat instant noodles or not.

Since she wanted to eat them, he could only indulge her. It was better than not eating anything all day.
