Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 546

Thinking Skylar was unhappy about her texting which had affected her level of productivity at work,

Hannah quickly shoved her phone into her pocket.

“It’s all right, I guess. I mean, he’s a great guy! He’ll be coming over to visit me this month because of a

delay in his job!” she replied with a shy smile.

Most online relationships tend to end badly the moment the couple meets up in real life, and Hannah’s

inability to take care of her appearances isn’t helping… She doesn’t trim her eyebrows, she knows

nothing about makeup, and she’s always wearing glasses with those ridiculously thick lenses! Oh, and

don’t even get me started on those baggy clothes of hers! As much as I hate to say this, I doubt she can

even get any man interested in her looking like this! Skylar couldn’t help but worry at the thought of that.

However, she decided to not shatter Hannah’s confidence in herself as it was possible that her boyfriend

didn’t care much about appearances.

Upon arrival at the restaurant, Skylar went up to the second floor and saw Molly waving at her with a

smile on her face.

Skylar had given Penelope the address, but she didn’t show up and wasn’t replying to her messages,

much to Skylar’s chagrin. She didn’t know what she had to do to help Penelope pull herself together.

Despite having grown up in the same neighborhood, Molly and Skylar weren’t all that close and had lived

very different lives.

As the waiter served up the food, Molly began talking about stuff that happened during her childhood.

There was even a hint of envy in her eyes as she said, “You looked as cute as a doll when you were a

child, and everyone in the neighborhood absolutely adored you! Heck, my mom is still complimenting you

to this day! That’s crazy, right?”

Skylar’s thoughts were all over the place. Molly’s probably just desperate for attention or something.

Everyone knows how sh*tty my life used to be! Back in the neighborhood, Penelope was the only kid

who didn’t avoid me like I was some kind of plague. After all, I am the daughter of a murderer living off

my grandma’s pension! You’d have to be crazy to envy me! Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Molly’s smile broadened as she continued, “I’m glad we’re in the same company, Skylar! I used to feel

lonely at times, but at least I now have you to keep me company. I’ll probably be needing your help a lot

in the future, so I hope you don’t mind! I mean, besties help each other out, right?”

Skylar stuffed some food into her mouth absent-mindedly and flashed a faint smile at her. “I’m very busy

and rarely head over to the office, so I wouldn’t be able to help you out much.”

Molly noticed the look in her eyes and knew she was being a little too pushy, but she had to boost her

popularity to stand a chance at getting the lead role.

If the rumors are true about Skylar and Tobias being close, then I shouldn’t have anything to worry about!

Noticing the awkward tension, Molly took a sip of her tea and said with a smile, “Come on, let’s not talk

about work when we finally get some time off. My mom has been feeling down lately because she thinks

my dad is cheating on her, so I don’t really feel like going home so soon. Let’s spend a bit more time

here!”

Skylar remembered how Molly’s dad used to be very famous in the neighborhood for his handsome look

as well as how loving he was with his family. On top of that, he was wealthy and fashionable with his

perms and bell-bottom pants, which made him popular with the ladies in the area.

Grandma used to tell me how pretty Mom was in her younger day. According to her, Mom had tons of

suitors back in the day, including Molly’s dad. However, Mom made a bad decision and picked my dad

instead of Molly’s. I bet life would’ve been great if she picked Molly’s dad instead! Alas, people tend to be

blinded by love until marriage gives them a wake-up call.
