Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 586

Chapter 586 You Are Really Something

Norman Simpson, a manager at the company, projected the plan of Old Town and the demolition and RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

relocation plan laid out by the government.

Eva’s heart skipped a beat when she saw that her house was within the area. That feeling was like

hitting the jackpot, and a huge amount of reward would be within reach.

Their family was anxious to sell their house to settle the problem caused by Kevin. Who would have

expected such a windfall all of a sudden?

If the area was demolished, they would be allocated three units of property for relocation purposes.

Tobias looked at the huge area of old residences and sunk into deep thoughts. In fact, that piece of land

had fallen into his hands many years ago, but there had never been any development plan initiated for it.

Currently, the construction of G60 Carlos Bridge and the biggest duty-free store in Aploth under Ford

Group was about to commence around the area.

The construction would start from the old residential area. Hence, relocation of the residents and

demolition was imminent. Initially, he had thought that he could bypass that area. But right then, it didn’t

really seem realistic.

Eva listened very attentively as they discussed the matter, and her lips couldn’t help but curl up in

excitement.

Tobias asked, “Is there any way we can circumvent Harbourside and leave that area out, keeping it intact

without demolishing it?”

Norman had never considered that before, but then Tobias had pointed out the residential area in

particular.

“Hmm, that’s quite challenging. If we leave Harbourside out alone, it would form a ring-shaped

construction area, with our commercial area encircling the old residential buildings as its core. Well… the

impact would be really huge.”

The smile on Eva’s face disappeared. She didn’t understand why Tobias wanted to bypass Harbourside.

Desperately, she chimed in, “Mr. Ford, I’m living in Harbourside, and all my neighbors around have a

strong urge to relocate. I don’t think there’s a need to keep that area.”

Tobias shot Eva a look. He knew all too well the plan was brewing in her mind.

Ignoring Eva altogether, he insisted, “Draw up a new plan and try as best as you can to avoid

Harbourside. Don’t worry about the construction yet.”

Eva knew how obsessed Skylar was about the old manor. She could even foresee that if they sold the

manor, Skylar would definitely acquire it.

So, is that why Tobias tries to keep Harbourside out of the development plan? Is he helping Skylar to

keep the repository of her memories? Never would Eva have imagined that this place would involve such

a major interest in the project. The cost of pleasing a woman is a little too high, isn’t it?

“Ms. Jones, you’re really something today, aren’t you?”

Skylar frowned in puzzlement. She didn’t really remember what she did that day other than giving him a

call, asking him why he blocked her.

“You happened to reveal to all my senior managers that I wanted to make love with a woman in the car. I

shouldn’t have answered your call,” that said, Tobias didn’t really blame Skylar.

Skylar’s face blushed in a second. “What perverted fetish of yours is that? Why must you be on speaker

mode? How would I know that?”

Tobias let out a sigh and returned, “I didn’t know you would call me at that hour either and even spoke

about something like that.”

Skylar was having a semi-meltdown. How embarrassing is that?

And she was still bothered by the fact that Tobias had blocked her on WhatsApp. It was only after Tobias

gave her his explanation that she finally understood.

Feeling a little ashamed of herself, Skylar said, “I thought you were dumping me. It seems that I was

overthinking. Anyway, now that I think about it, such petty behaviors as abandoning someone by

blacklisting and bailing on her aren’t something that you would do.”

Tobias replied helplessly, “Is that what I’m like in your opinion? An irresponsible jerk who would block

your number after sleeping with you? I’m not a philanderer who cheats for sex.”

Skylar set down her script and stood behind the sofa, eagerly laying her hands on Tobias’ shoulders, and

began massaging lightly.

Tobias took out a stack of bills from his briefcase and handed them to Skylar.

“Kevin’s matter was related to Hayden. All his loans went through Hayden and amounted to over two

million.”

Tobias was quick to get to the bottom of it. However, Skylar didn’t expect that it was Hayden behind it.

He went through all these troubles just to give me a hard time and humiliate me. That’s a little too

extreme.
