Hannah signed the notice on behalf of Skylar, yet she didn’t want to take responsibility for the latter.
Therefore, Hannah fished out Skylar’s phone from her bag.
She scrolled through the contact list and found a contact labeled “Mom”. Without hesitation, she called
the number.
Right then, Miranda was seated in a well-decorated restaurant with a splendid environment. She
looked elegant and graceful. Her face was flushing red as she gazed at her old flame affectionately. It
had been a long time since she last met the man.
In contrast to Miranda’s passion, Thomas didn’t show any excitement about their rendezvous. Instead,
he pursed his lips tightly and had a serious look on his face.
“Come and live with us, Thomas. You’re running out of time. You have to move in by this month.”
Miranda swirled the glass of wine gently while looking at the garnet red liquid casually.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing her words, Thomas was in a tight spot. “I’m not ready to talk to Irene about it. She’ll definitely
make a fuss. Besides, my children won’t accept it either. Let’s take some time and think it through, shall
we?” he carefully asked.
Miranda drank up her wine and her eyes turned grim. “Don’t you forget what you had done! I was made
your scapegoat and I’d suffered in jail for so many years. You have to pay the price!” she scowled.
Hannah tried to reach Miranda, yet the latter didn’t pick up her calls. Suddenly, Hannah thought of
Tobias, but she was unsure whether he would come over for Skylar.
Hannah had little experience of being an assistant, but she was no stranger to how things worked
between a female star and a sponsor. The former secured the sources whereas the latter satisfied his
sexual desires. They were merely getting what they needed from each other.
Hannah called up Skylar’s manager, Kate. Upon receiving her call, Kate rushed to the hospital. She
was already in the hot water because of the tight filming schedule before she was informed about
Skylar’s situation. However, she didn’t blame Skylar as it was something uncontrollable.
In the corridor, Kate questioned Hannah, “Have you contacted her family? Why are you here alone?”
Hannah shook her head. “I called her mother, but no one answered. I didn’t know who else I could
reach.”
Without further ado, Kate took out her phone and called Tobias. That was Skylar’s best opportunity to
get hold of Tobias. A strong, controlling man like Tobias Ford would feel protective towards a weak
woman. Besides, Skylar would never have to worry about her sponsorship as long as she was with
Tobias. That could save up a lot of work on her end.
Meanwhile, Tobias was having a meal with his family. “Have you cut her off completely?” Claudia
stared at Tobias as she queried.
Ever since Tobias moved out, she could only have a meal with her son once a week. Claudia always
envisioned a happy family, with her beloved children and grandchildren surrounding her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, everything was ruined. The child was gone, Tanya had gone crazy, and Tobias had distanced
himself from the family. All these happened because of Skylar Jones.
Tobias remained silent. He picked up the fork and knife, then elegantly cut the steak. Under this
somber atmosphere, Sheldon was scrutinizing the two of them. He was waiting for the right timing to
introduce Winnie to his family.
“There are a few ladies that I want you to meet. They’re all beautiful ladies with decent family
backgrounds. Free up some time to meet them,” Miranda said.
Tobias paused upon hearing that. He twitched his lips indifferently, then placed the utensils down. “Are
you setting up a blind date for me? Don’t bother yourself. I don’t need that.”
Claudia frowned at his cold response. “How long do you plan to continue this nonsense? You have to
get married one day. Stop messing around with that wretch. You’re looking for a girlfriend, not a childish
little girl. She’s too young and does no good to you whatsoever. Your future wife has to be a good
match for you and she’s definitely not the one.”
