Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)
Chapter 116

Running out of patience, Sheldon urged Skylar, "Skylar, why are you so indecisive? I'm famished!"

Skylar closed the menu and passed it back to Tobias. "Since you're the one treating, you should order instead."

Tobias then tossed the menu to Hilary.

Even though Hilary told Sheldon that she frequented restaurants like that, she had actually only been to the restaurant once. During that one time she dined there with her friends, they were shocked by how expensive the meal was when they saw the bill.

As such, since there was someone else treating, Hilary did not intend to stand on ceremony and had her mind set on ordering the most expensive items on the menu.

The wagyu beef alone already cost more than a thousand per plate. In addition to the red wine ordered, the bill was expected to be at least three hundred thousand.

To Tobias and Sheldon, that wasn't a big deal and that fact alone fortified Skylar's belief that she was a world apart from them. She felt that her presence was a mismatch with the high-class restaurant. Unlike the heirs and heiresses from wealthy families, Skylar had not grown up worry-free in a loving environment with people doting on her.

Before all the dishes were served, Hilary already couldn't wait to take pictures. With a cheeky grin, she said, "Let me take some pictures first."

She had already thought of the captions which she was going to put on her social media together with the photos.

Skylar, who had just picked up her utensils, quickly put them back down so that Hilary could take photos.

There was a hint of impatience in Tobias' deep-set dark eyes as the other three of them waited.

After Hilary finished taking pictures, she said smilingly, "This is one of my favorite restaurants. Their chef is really good and was even featured on a previous issue of Michelin Guide. Ms. Jones, what do you usually like to eat?"

Skylar looked at Hilary with a confused expression as the woman's sudden question caught her by surprise.

What should I answer? Tater tots? In addition to tater tots, Skylar usually only ate simple food such as sandwiches, pastas or takeaways. She couldn't even bring herself to order extra food in her takeaway. "Oh, I eat anything. I'm not that particular with food," Skylar responded vaguely.

Hilary was rather surprised at Skylar's answer and exclaimed, "Us girls should have more class when choosing the food we consume and can't be too casual about it. My friends and I dine here quite often. Ms. Jones, maybe you and I can hang out together next time too. We can go shopping and eat some good food."

Skylar smiled awkwardly and replied, "Sure, we can replace a time to do that."

She couldn't understand why Hilary had to keep emphasizing that she frequented the restaurant. Was she trying to show off? Either that or she was just trying very hard to hide something she lacked. Realizing that Skylar had not lifted her utensils, Tobias asked affectionately, "Do you not like the food here? We can go elsewhere if you wanna eat something else."

Skylar took a sip of her red wine and answered, "Maybe it's because I just recovered that I don't have much of an appetite."

If Skylar had not brought it up, Tobias had already almost forgotten how much Skylar suffered the night before.

The man placed a hand on Skylar's forehead to make sure that she wasn't running a fever and was glad that she wasn't.

Just then, a clicking sound of the camera was heard and Hilary smiled sheepishly. She had forgotten to switch her phone to silent mode again.

The woman had already snapped more than ten photos of that bottle of red wine.

Tobias and Skylar had both barely eaten. Most of the dishes were gobbled up by Sheldon and Hilary shortly after they were served and there wasn't even a single drop of red wine left in the bottle.

A waiter, who was dressed in a kimono, walked towards their table with a point-of-sale terminal and said, "Sir, your total bill would be three hundred and twenty thousand."

Skylar gasped in shock when she heard the amount.

The day spent with Tobias was indeed eye-opening for her. It seemed like money to him was nothing.

She immediately regretted not eating much at a meal that cost three hundred over thousand. Why did she restrain herself?

Hilary fought to foot the bill, knowing very well that Tobias would never let her pay.

"Let me get it! Mr. Ford, let this be my treat." Hilary pretended to reach for her credit card.

Sheldon stayed out of the situation, waiting for the woman to admit defeat.

He could already tell that Tobias was getting impatient and it was obvious that his brother did not approve of this new girlfriend of his.
