Escape From My Step Brother's Dangerous Obsession (Skylar and Callias)

Hugo froze in place.

I turned abruptly and saw the handsome face of Lukas up close.

I was so shocked that I couldn't even speak, and all I could hear was Lukas's enchanting

voice.

Lukas raised an eyebrow and looked at me with indifference. "What's wrong? Do you like

what you see?"

I immediately snapped out of it, my voice lowered a few degrees. "N-no... Why... What are you doing here?"

With Lukas, I folded instantly, completely losing the arrogance and domineering attitude I had displayed in front of Hugo just a second ago.

Lukas chuckled, finding my reaction amusing. "Can't I come?"

I puffed up my cheeks, unable to refute.

Hugo looked at Lukas, completely dumbfounded. His face changed repeatedly, and after struggling for a long time, he managed to force out a sentence, "Mr. Strakovski, why are you. here?"

Lukas raised his eyes, his voice cold, "I heard that you want to sue our Strakovski Jewelry's designer. How could I not come?"

Hugo awkwardly laughed, his expression stiff. "How could that be... Skylar... She... She's clearly a designer for Trifleming..." Before Hugo could finish his words, Lukas mercilessly interrupted, "From this moment on, she is Strakovski's designer!" Hugo wanted to argue further, "But she..."

Lukas's expression turned cold, a little impatient, "I said she is!"

Hugo's expression became extremely ugly. He glanced at me, who was standing beside Lukas, and clearly saw a gloating look in my eyes.

In that instant, he understood everything. He fell into this situation all because I schemed. Me and Lukas had known each other for quite some time now!

Lukas didn't intend to waste time here. He has originally come to pick me up, afraid that once my act would be over, Hugo would do something to cause more trouble. After all, he was fiercely protective of his people, especiallyme. He didn't want anyone to

harm me in any way.

He looked at me, his expression intense. "When do you plan to leave for Strakovski?" He asked.

My eyes flickered, "Tomorrow, I suppose," I replied.

Lukas nodded, his determination evident. "Can we leave now?" he asked.noveldrama

I hurriedly nodded and quickly followed Lukas.

Seeing them about to leave, Hugo couldn't help but shout. "Skylar!"

My steps paused for a moment. I breathes deeply, gathering my strength to look at Hugo, and slowly turned around.

Lukas's expression remained calm, and he stood quietly in place, not intending to turn around or interfere in our conversation.

Hugo stared at me with a gloomy expression, his emotions swirling. "You planned everything that happened today, right?" he asked, trying to make sense of the situation.

I pressed my tongue against my cheek, and then a slow, calculating smile crossed my face. "Yes! Of course! Can't you see it all? Why even ask?"

Although everything was now clear for Hugo, he still couldn't believe that I, who had

always been obedient and loving towards him, could actually orchestrate such a scheme.

He struggled with mixed emotions anger, unwillingness, and bitterness - all intertwined.

voice sounded hoarse as he roared the next words angrily at me. "You loved me, right? So why would you do this?"

I heard what seemed like a big joke and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

'Love? Ha! Hugo! I did love you, but how dare you say such a thing! Where the hell have I stood in our relationship these past two years? Every time you complimented Bella with one of my designs, did you see me? Every time you had fun with Bella, did you remember me? When you abandoned our wedding to go to Bella, did you remember me? When you and Bella went to the civil registry office to register your marriage, did you even think of me? I wasted two years, two fucking years loving you! How could you do this to m My words poured out with raw emotion, my voice trembling with hurt and anger. The weight of betrayal and deceit had finally surfaced, and I couldn't hold back my pent-up emotions any longer.

My eyes turned red with tears falling, crying for my youth over the past two years that were

wasted.

If it were merely a heartbreak, I could have endured it, but it wasn't just heartbreak. What I felt was the emotional and psychological damage that Hugo and Bella caused through their deception. They had not only hurt me but made me feel disgusted and used for two years.

"I..." Hugo knew he was in the wrong, and seeing Lukas standing firmly beside me made him realize that he couldn't do anything to me.

He could only soften his tone, "Skylar, it's my fault. I'm very, very sorry. Let's talk about this behind closed doors as a family, alright?"

Before I could say anything. Lukas audibly sneered. "Family..." He chimed.
