Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 539

“I’m just looking out for the both of us,” she pointed out. “I don’t want to cause you trouble either.” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

That sentence shut him up. That’s right. That was what I used to wish for, too.

The flashy car eventually arrived at Skylar’s destination and slowed to a stop by the roadside, drawing

the attention of many passers-by.

She didn’t even think about saying “bye” or “thank you” before rushing out of the car and making a

beeline for the studio.

The job this time was a photoshoot for a magazine cover. Skylar was the main star of the photoshoot,

while Molly and a few other trainees were the extra models.

The last time she’d met Molly, the girl had spilled an entire cup of coffee onto Tobias at the company

building.

Molly approached her as she was getting her makeup done. The trainee was dressed in a schoolgirl

outfit, complete with white thigh-high socks and black Mary Janes that complimented her slim frame.

Skylar couldn’t help but admire the way puberty had helped Molly grow into the beautiful girl she was

today. The latter hadn’t lost an ounce of the confidence her family had taught her; she still seemed like a

spoilt princess wherever she would go.

Clinging onto Skylar’s arm, Molly excitedly told her, “Hi, Skylar! I specifically went to buy some

handmade candy from the shop near our place when I heard you’d be coming today! You used to love

that candy, right?”

There used to be a shophouse in the residential area Skylar used to live in that had been popular

amongst kids for its selection of snacks such as homemade candy, pretzels, and donuts.

She’d even paid a visit a few days ago and had been delighted to learn that the owner of the shop was

still the exact same one from when she was younger. Unfortunately, she felt like the taste of the snacks

sold there had changed greatly.

Perhaps it was because her preferences had changed after growing up. She recalled with nostalgia how

she couldn’t bear to finish the candy in one go as a kid and would nibble at it slowly to preserve it for as

long as she could.

Sometimes, she would bring the candy back home to eat while watching Powerpuff Girls. Sometimes,

grandma would appear with a broom and telling her to turn the TV off, going on and on about how

watching too much TV was bad for Skylar’s eyes and that it was a waste of electricity.

Even in hindsight, Skylar never once thought of her grandma as being too stingy. She knew it had been

hard for her grandma to raise her with a salary of only a thousand a month.

If only Grandma was still around. I would finally be able to spoil her. I would buy her everything we

couldn’t afford in the past.

Skylar shot Molly a polite smile. “It’s the thought that counts. Thank you for thinking of me.”

Molly’s grin widened even further. “Don’t mention it! We’re best friends after all!”

Skylar’s mind blanked. A small voice that sounded like Kate’s in the back of her mind chimed in, “When

you get popular, the entire entertainment industry is going to want to be your friend.”

Since when have Molly and I become so close that she regards us “best friends” now?

Dressed in a simple white T-shirt and blue skinny jeans, Skylar looked perfect under the camera lens.

There wasn’t a single flaw on her face, and not a single strand of her shoulder-length dark hair was out

of place.

The photographers kept praising her amazing body proportions, going on and on about how she was

born to be a star.

In a small crowd of trainees that stood off to one side and watched the photoshoot, someone whispered

into Molly’s ear, “You and Skylar are friends, right? Do you know if the whole ‘rags to riches’ Cinderella

story she used to sell is true?”

Molly kept her gaze fixed on Skylar, who was posing and throwing a cool look of disdain towards the

camera. “Of course it is,” she replied, smirking. “She led quite a pitiful childhood, actually. Her dad

abandoned her, so she was raised by her grandmother. Yet, she’s still maintained her values and views

of money, even after becoming a celebrity. You see that necklace around her neck? It doesn’t even cost

a thousand.”
