Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)

Chapter 764 Just A Rich Playboy

Suppressing her emotions, Penelope asked, “Don't you want to know how the kid is doing?”

Realization dawned on Brayden. “Oh, right. How's she doing?”

Of course, Penelope could tell that Brayden did not take their daughter seriously at all. She always felt sorry for her daughter and blamed herself for not giving her an intact family.

“You can visit her. She can talk now and always calls out 'Daddy.'“

Just when Penelope was about to take out her phone to show him the photo of their daughter, someone came over to greet Brayden.

Brayden pointed to the side and said, “If you'll excuse me. Let's talk again sometime.”

Skylar, who saw their interaction, walked over and said indignantly, “Can't you come to your senses after watching so many self-help programs? Why even bother to keep in touch with this sc*mbag?”

With a disappointed look in her eyes, Penelope found herself unable to calm down. She thought that she had moved on, but it turned out that she was just deceiving herself.

She even tried to defend herself by explaining, “It's not that I haven't gotten over him. I just wanted an intact family for my daughter.”

Skylar felt helpless. She knew that she could not wake a person who was pretending to be asleep.

It was just like when everyone around her told her that her relationship with Tobias would not last, she still chose to believe that effort was everything.

When a black Maybach parked ostentatiously in the middle of the hotel entrance, Lilian got into Sheldon's car under everyone's gaze.

Winding down the car window, Sheldon saw Skylar, but he did not wave to her, fearing that it would affect her badly.

Tobias had already told him not to reveal his relationship with Skylar.

In Sheldon's opinion, it made no difference whether he said it or not, as there were increasingly more rumors about them.

Some netizens even found out that Tobias and Skylar wore matching outfits.

Yet, Sheldon thought that it was purely a coincidence as Tobias was not someone who would wear matching outfits with a woman.

After getting into the car, Lilian crossed her legs and deftly lit a cigarette she had taken from Sheldon. While puffing on the cigarette, she looked at him and said, “I've never been interested in this kind of business dinner. The paparazzi present today are all there for Skylar. Online influencers like us can never be in the same league as celebrities, no matter how successful we are.”

“Celebrities are humans, too. I don't think there's anything special about them. By the way, isn't Skylar prettier in person than those retouched pictures of hers?” Sheldon responded.

At the mention of Skylar's appearance, he was generous with compliments as if he was proud.

Yet, Lilian thought nothing of Sheldon's unabashed praise of Skylar's good looks, as it was normal for men to appreciate beautiful women. Even she would like a beauty like Skylar.

She then persuaded, “You know Skylar, don't you? Help me pull a few strings when you're free. A new batch of clothes will soon be launched in my store. I've been looking for a brand ambassador who is not only energetic but also youthful and classy. Skylar is the perfect fit.”

Sheldon, who did not like ambitious women very much, was of the view that all a woman needed was a man.

It was a trauma caused by Claudia since he was a child. In all his childhood, Claudia was busy all the time and away from home from early morning to late evening. She could even leave home for a fortnight.

If it were not for Tobias, he probably would not have been able to survive to this day.

When Lilian talked about her career, Sheldon became disinterested and replied perfunctorily, “Skylar has endorsements with brands. I think she's also the brand ambassador of Gucci. It's impossible she'll humble herself to endorse your Amazon store. It won't happen. I won't do it as it's a waste of time. I might as well play games with my pals at the cybercafé if I have the time. Anyway, look how well-behaved I have been recently. I've gotten my act together!” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Lilian rolled her eyes at him. To her, Sheldon was just a loser. Initially, she only wanted to have a simple relationship, but she found that they were not compatible at all after some time.

In her opinion, Sheldon was a rich playboy who only knew how to have fun. After hearing his response, she decided not to dwell on it and just focus on maximizing her own interests.
