Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)
Chapter 451

Skylar smirked hearing his words. "I don't need you to do that. I'm financially independent now." "Really?" Tobias looked at her from the corner of his eyes as he held out the purchase contract.

"The house is about ten thousand square feet and the garden is seven thousand square feet. It's in the city center. It's just been renovated, so your mom can move in right away. The only condition is that you have to pay in full amount."

Skylar stared at him with her eyes wide like saucers. She had not even looked at the house and here Tobias was, asking her to sign the contract.

The address shown on the contract was indeed at the heart of the city. If the price was two thousand and two hundred per square foot, it meant Skylar had to pay twenty-two million before tax. She gave the contract back to Tobias, shaking her head. "I'll just go hire an agent and look for a house. I can't afford a house like this, what more when I have to pay everything up front."

"Hold your horses. I'm not done yet," Tobias interrupted, "The full amount is three point two million. You have to make a one-off payment and you can put the house under whoever's name you like." Tobias had everything within his calculation. He knew Skylar had three point three million in her bank. He had everything planned out in such a way that she would still have one hundred thousand left in her bank, but Skylar was still not buying it.

"You're not even selling me the house at a discount, you're giving it to me, so I won't take it. My mom doesn't need such a big house anyway, so I won't sign this contract."

Tobias had expected that Skylar would turn him down, so he went forward and put his arm around her shoulder. "Well, you can either buy the house yourself, or I can go and convince your mother to buy it. Then, she'll have to take up a whole load of loan on her own."

"Seriously, what are you trying to do? Why not you just give me the house without charging me anything then? What's the point of sucking me dry so you can control my life?"

Tobias did not tell her the reason why he wanted to charge her for the house. Despite the amount being minuscule, he was still asking her to pay because he did not want to hurt her ego.

He had always wanted to do something for her. He knew there was a warm heart behind her cold facade. He knew she wanted to give her mother a home in her old age.

He intended to give her the house she was living in a few times, but she refused and did not even give him the documents he needed for the paperwork.

Even when they quarreled, Skylar would pack her things and leave.

She was a woman with dignity, and Tobias respected that. This was the only way he could gift her a house without making her feel uncomfortable.

Skylar did not understand where he was coming from, but it was not like Tobias cared about that. He was totally fine with her thinking that he just wanted to corner her so she had no other choice but to depend on him.

"It's three point two million. You either take it or leave it. You won't be able to buy any other house if you reject this one. You know what I'm capable of." Tobias was set on being the bad guy to the very end. Skylar knew just what he could do. He would do everything within his capacity to make sure she did not get her hands on any house she intended to buy, so she took up the pen unwillingly and signed her

name.

It reminded her of the time when they first met near a convenience store. It was late at night when Tobias came to her with a contract. That was when she first became his sugar baby.

She had long forgotten where she kept that document, but one thing for sure was Tobias really treated her well.

After signing her name, Tobias handed her the contract.

"Congratulations, you own a house now. You can either stay with your mom at your house or continue staying at our place. I'm okay with either one."

Skylar opted to stay with Miranda without a second thought.

Since distance made the heart grow fonder, she figured it would be good to keep some distance between them, although staying with Miranda would mean Skylar had to listen to her sob stories all the time.
