Upon hearing that, Skylar’s heart skipped a beat. Brayden is such a jacka*s, much worse than I’ve
expected!
Infuriated, she slammed her hand on the table and tarred everyone with the same brush. “All of you
men are despicable creatures! Can you actually sleep at night after impregnating a woman?”
Gazing at her face which had turned red in anger, he chuckled. “Did Brayden force her? Absolutely not.
Hence, you can’t blame it on one party for it takes two to tango. You should be thankful that you’ve met
a serious and responsible man like me.”
She rolled her eyes at him. Sheesh! It’s equally selfish to engage in any casual relationship that doesn’t
end up in a marriage.
He did tell me before that he might not be able to spend a lifetime with me. Does that reflect his serious

She asked him, “What if I have your baby? Will you behave like Brayden—toy with me, and then leave
me?”
“I don’t want to answer a hypothetical question.” He dropped the topic.
Skylar did not push it further as she was not interested to discuss the subject in detail with Tobias. Birds
of the same feather flock together. They’re both the same.
In Skylar’s eyes, Tobias was a slightly better scum than Brayden.
Though Quest Group had collapsed, there were still many guests who came forward to celebrate
Thomas’ birthday with him.
The arrival of Tobias was a big deal. If it were in the past, Thomas would surely felt proud and excited.
However, it was not the case that night—he was glum and troubled.
Miranda had been pressuring him to announce his divorce with Irene publicly at the banquet.
Otherwise, she threatened to tell the police what happened back then.
Why didn’t I steel my heart and kill Miranda in jail last time? Who would have thought she could be
acquitted on all counts? Thomas regretted not taking action sooner.
All in all, Miranda’s release was made happen after Skylar got together with Tobias. Thomas strongly
believed that Tobias played a part in it and admitted his mistake for underestimating Skylar’s
capabilities.
Irene spotted Miranda in the crowd. While plastering an elegant smile on her face, she shot a
questionable gaze at Thomas, which he managed to dodge.
The two women had animosity toward each other for half a century-long. Accompanied by her son,
Irene approached Miranda.

being a troublemaker so much? Are you too free after being released from jail?” Irene said softly
through her gritted teeth.
She did not want others to hear a single word she said.
Miranda stood there, scrutinizing both Irene and Hayden. He’s so tall and looks so much like Thomas.
“I return to claim my position as the lady of this house. This will be my home henceforth.” Confidently,
Miranda stared at Irene with a pair of provocative eyes.
“What nonsense! A crazy woman like you should be kept behind bars until the day you die,” Hayden
retorted as he glared at Miranda.
He then shifted his gaze to Skylar. This mother-and-daughter pair is unbelievably insolent! They dare to
the banquet today, thinking that they have Tobias’ backing.
In the past, Skylar was just like a beggar when she came to ask for money. The only difference
between now and then is that this beggar now wears a custom-made gown.
Miranda waved at Thomas, who knew he could not escape his fate. At that time, Avery appeared with a
three-layer birthday cake.
