Fell Into His Love Trap novel Chapter 442

Like a dog with a bone, Largo was unyielding. If he successfully convinced Skylar, Largo would likely appear on the big screen in his next film. Having already invested a few hundred million in Largo, it was rare that Xander would take a further interest in Skylar. Largo had sent Skylar’s photo to Xander and received instant approval from the latter. Xander had been so pleased that he had promised to grant Largo whatever he desired.

Largo thus pressed on. “Older men tend to be more caring and affectionate. Young and successful men don’t usually know how to treat women well. Anyway, it’s a mutually beneficial arrangement.”

Skylar lifted her flask and, in one graceful motion, threw the rest of the hot tea onto Largo’s surprised face. “If you say another word, it won’t just be the tea that I’ll be pouring at you. Get out!” she roared.

Largo had sprung to his feet in dismay. Seething, he yelled, “What the hell are you doing? All I wanted was to give you a chance. If you don’t take it, don’t come crying to me in the future.”

Skylar looked at Largo pityingly. “If you’re so interested, why don’t you do it, then? It’s just sex, isn’t it? If you don’t leave, I’ll report you for harassment. Everyone will know what a pervert you are.”

Skylar’s threat had far more effect on Largo than Avery’s had had.

In all her subsequent scenes with Largo, Skylar did her absolute best to keep her distance. In contrast to what Avery had claimed, Skylar maintained her professional veneer while acting. Skylar’s on-screen chemistry with Largo was still as effusive as ever. The moment the director declared “Cut!”, however, Skylar would leave as quickly as she could, avoiding the possibility of any interaction with Largo.

When the filming for Empyrean Sword finally ended, neither the lead actor nor actress was present at the filming crew’s celebratory party. Despite Kate’s urging, Skylar had immediately had her chauffeur drive her straight home.

She felt that it was too soon to set aside her disgust for Largo. At the risk of appearing arrogant for not gracing the party, Skylar escaped as soon as she could.

Skylar picked up her phone to call Tobias the moment she entered her room. Over the line, he informed her that he was at home.

“Which home?” Skylar asked hopefully.

Her heart sank when Tobias named his childhood home. It didn’t seem possible that they would be able to meet that night. As Skylar hung up with a heavy heart, she realized that the car was no longer heading in the direction of her own home.
