Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias)
Chapter 92

Lily had made up her mind by then. She wouldn't allow Skylar to escape since her son had a crush on him.

The irritated woman asked Wesley, "What's wrong with your niece? Why don't you go around and ask others if they have received three hundred thousand as dowry nowadays? Things are different. These days, the ladies are the ones who have to compensate the men if they want to get married!"

Wesley couldn't make up his mind. He looked at Sharon in the eyes and asked for her opinion.

Sharon assured Lily, "She's such an ungrateful brat! No matter what it takes, we'll make sure Skylar gets married to Jackson! I'll drop by her school and get her leaves approved on her behalf tomorrow. We'll make sure she shows up during the wedding ceremony."

Jackson looked at the invitation card to the wedding ceremony and got pumped up all of a sudden. He thought luck was on his side because he could finally spend the rest of his life with the woman of his dreams.

Meanwhile, Skylar, who had returned, had a bad feeling about it because someone showed up out of nowhere and proposed.

She confronted Jackson, yet, he didn't seem to have an idea of what was going on as well.

Soon, Skylar received countless calls from Wesley after she returned to the dormitory. As she couldn't take it anymore, she decided to block her uncle's contact.

Finally, she learned about her uncle and his family's true colors. They were a shameless bunch that would forsake her for their sakes. If it weren't due to her grandmother, she would have severed ties with them without any hesitation.

Wesley was her late grandmother's favorite child. She didn't want to disappoint her beloved grandmother. Thus, she had to tolerate the absurd request that had been brought up by her so-called uncle. The next day, the moment Skylar walked out of the dormitory, she caught a glimpse of Jackson at the hall downstairs, surveying the surroundings.

The horn-rimmed glasses he had put on made him stand out amongst the bunch of good-looking young men and women in the university. He had successfully grabbed the attention of the passerby with his geeky look.

"Where does this loser come from? Is he waiting for his girlfriend?" Skylar heard a few ladies discussing and teasing about the geeky man opposite their dormitory. Jackson shouted, "S-Skylar!"

She pretended as though she didn't hear him. Jackson was not deterred by this but instead, he shouted her name repeatedly from across the street.

He waved because he was afraid she might have missed him. "H-Hey, Skylar! I-I'm over here!"

Skylar had no choice but to approach the geeky man because she was afraid he wouldn't stop calling her name. As expected, she was greeted by the odd looks of the crowd.

She didn't have anything against Jackson's look since there wasn't anything much he could do about it-he was born with it.

However, she didn't want to be affiliated with Jackson at all. Apart from being ordinary friends, it would be impossible for them to take their relationship to the next level.

"Why are you here?" Skylar asked indifferently.

Jackson unzipped his jacket and showed her the croissant and the cup of coffee he had brought along with him with his signature goofy smile. "I made my way out at five o'clock in the morning and dropped by our favorite pastry shop that was nearby our senior high school to get you your favorite croissant! I have been keeping it inside my jacket to ensure it's still warm when you wake up!"

She was taken by surprise because he was spot on. The croissant from that particular store was her favorite.

With that being said, she didn't expect he would keep that in mind after all these years and go to great lengths to get it for her.

Despite being touched deep down, she wasn't in the mood to savor her favorite croissant. She stated callously, "You should return to where you come from. I have classes to attend. Also, you better stop showing up on the campus! It's way too far from your home!"

Jackson flushed and said, "You don't have to worry about me because I'm not tired at all. I have obtained my mother's consent. She'll allow you to finish your course after we get married. In the future, I'll get your breakfast ready and drop you off at the university every day."

Skylar felt a chill running down her spine because she couldn't believe they had everything sorted out on her behalf, including a future blueprint for them both.

Have I not made myself clear? I'm pretty sure we're conversing using the same language, aren't we?

"Skylar, is this your boyfriend? He's such a handsome man!" The voice of Carmen, Skylar's roommate, could be heard from behind her.

Yasmin lugged Carmen away and told her to get going already instead of poking her nose into other's businesses.
