Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 238

“Skylar is studying at the Southwood Film Academy,” Miranda told them in support of Skylar. “You all

know where that is right? A lot of celebrities graduated from that school. I’m hoping that she’d become

really famous in the future. She’s my only insurance plan after all.”

Eva sneered. “So many people that came out of that school would end up just being extras or playing

insignificant roles. Those famous celebrities spent a lot of money to get to where they are. Where do you

get that money from? There was Grandma’s retirement fund in the past. What about now?”

Eva started being the wet blanket again, clearly not wanting Skylar to get any attention.

Skylar raised an eyebrow in response and smiled. “I just finish filming a new movie by Daryl Williams.”

“Oh?” Eva looked at her suspiciously. “That’s a famous director. What role did you play?”

“The second female lead. There were quite a lot of scenes.”

With that, Eva went silent. She had to admit that Skylar had an exquisite looking face. There are

abundance of beautiful faces in the industry though. For a nameless actress like you to gain popularity

would be a huge joke.

After a while, Eva cleared her throat and made an announcement. “Everyone, I’m getting married soon.

Mum, Dad, David’s parents would like both families to meet before that. They’ve already prepared a

house that’s more than two thousand square feet for us.”

“Yeah,” David chimed in. “Mr. and Mrs. Watts, my mother really liked Eva so the house was prepared well

in advance. It’s located in the city so it’s more convenient for Eva to travel to work.”

All the relatives there were shocked by the announcement. Their jaws dropped even further when they

heard about the house in the city.

“Eva’s really amazing! Even your husband is impressive. Your in-laws seem nice too! Have you secured

a job yet?” One of the aunts said flatteringly.

“It’s confirmed,” Eva declared proudly. “The human resource department already sent me an offer. I’m

going to work in the Ford Group.”

At that instance, Skylar almost choked herself when the Ford Group was mentioned. She was

astonished that Eva was going to work in Tobias’ company.

Sharon and Wesley looked at each other for a brief moment. Other than them, no one knew that they

actually met Tobias.

On the other hand, Miranda was in jail for quite some time, so she did not know whether Eva’s job was

good or not.

Nevertheless, Miranda did not want Skylar to lose face. “Skylar has a great boyfriend too! He even gives

me money to spend! Look at my clothes, these costed thousands!”

Eva laughed nonchalantly in response. “Aunt Miranda, why don’t you invite him to dinner with us? Give

him a call. Everyone here can help you assess him.”

Miranda wanted to meet Skylar’s boyfriend as well, so she started coercing her. “Why don’t you give him

a call and ask him to come over?”

But, Skylar was having none of that. “Why should I? What’s he even here for? To finish our leftovers?

He’s a busy man.”

“How could you talk to your mother like that?” An aunt reprimanded. “Skylar, you’re being really

disrespectful. Think about how difficult it was for your mom, she was jailed for so long.”

Skylar, however, fought back. “I meant no disrespect to my mother. I know things have been difficult for

her, but have you people ever visited her even once? I don’t think so.”

As the exchange went on, the atmosphere at the table became more and more tense.

All of a sudden, Eva slammed her fork on the table. “You better not go too far, Ms. Skylar Jones.

Everyone here is your elder, so show some respect! Don’t you dare think you’re all great just because

you got into a film academy? What did Grandma teach you? Don’t use insolence as a weapon to lash out

at the people who care most about you.”

Skylar felt sick after seeing the smug way Eva talked. “I’m done here. You guys carry on without me. Oh,

by the way, can you people please stop thinking that Eva’s going to starve? Everyone keeps putting food

in her bowl like I was gonna finish everything if you don’t guard the food from me. I don’t even like duck!” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

As she was standing up, Miranda grabbed her arm. “Why are you like this? Why do you have to ruin a

nice evening like this?”
