Avery was the one who selected the cake personally. She was wearing a white pleated tulle dress and
a tiara on her head. Coupled with her exquisite features and curvy figure, one would have assumed it
was her birthday.
Meanwhile, Tobias was surrounded by guests who wanted to strike a business relationship with him.
Yet, he refused to acknowledge nor give them any response, let alone accepting any of their name
cards.
Skylar kept a distance from Tobias at the banquet. She knew that he would not have attended the
function if it were not for her.
The ignorant Avery called upon Thomas to cut the cake, giving him an excuse to escape Miranda.
Avery passed the knife to Thomas and gave him a peck on the cheek, leaving a light lipstick stain on
his face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSmiling gleefully, she said coyly, “I’d like to wish my dearest Dad, a happy birthday. You’re the best Dad
in the whole world. I love you so much!”
While Avery was expressing her heartfelt love to Thomas, Skylar felt so down for not knowing how it
was like to be showered with fatherly love. Thomas had channeled all of his attention and affection to
Hayden and Avery, leaving none for her.
“The youngest Jones is such a beauty. I heard that she’s studying at the film academy. She’s probably
going to be a famous celebrity in the near future.”
“Oh, the way the little princess simpers melts my heart.”
“She’s only twenty, being in the prime of life.”
In a low voice, Tobias reminded Skylar, “If you feel uneasy, we can leave right away.”
Skylar took a glance at Miranda and shook her head. “Leave now and let her face this alone? Should I
empathize and feel sorry for my mom or support her to be a homewrecker?”
Tobias replied indifferently, “I think you already have the answer.”
A hostile look settled upon her face. None of them is a saint. Irene was a mistress whereas my mom
keeps getting herself entangled in this mess though she’s unwanted. In a nutshell, she concluded that it
was all Thomas’ fault for being a womanizer.
Only in s would there be unrealistic praises or positive characteristics written about a disloyal
husband and a mistress.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming from near and far. I have an important announcement to
make today.” Faced with Miranda’s coercive gaze, Thomas was about to bring up the dreaded topic.
Right then, there was complete silence in the room. The guests were anticipating good news, namely,
Irene was pregnant.
Thomas looked in the direction of Irene but did not maintain eye contact with her. He uttered, “Let’s get
a divorce.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSkylar squeezed Tobias’ hand tightly. Oh my, he did it! It’s exactly like what I’ve visualized in my
nightmare.
The people in the room froze in shock, contrasting to Miranda’s delightful expression.
Baffled, Irene looked at Thomas in the eye. “Is this a joke? Are you out of your mind?”
At that moment, Miranda, who was wearing a brown gown, strode to the center of the room and held
Thomas’ hand. “I’m sorry, Irene, time’s up. Thanks for taking care of my man all these years. You’ve
done a lot. Now that I’m back, you can step back into your little corner. I told you, I’m here to reclaim
my position as Mrs. Jones.”
Irene was dejected. Avery went ballistic as she yelled, “Get out of here, you crazy woman! You’re not
welcome.”
With a clenched fist, Hayden was about to throw a punch at Miranda. Thankfully, he was stopped by
Skylar, who rushed to block in front of her mother.
She advised him calmly, “Don’t act in a rash. Is it necessary for you to create a scene when millions are
watching us right now?”
