Winnie’s wrath was written all over her face. She warned Skylar with her teeth clenched, “Stop playing pretend in

front of me! You were the one behind the scenes at the place of the Fords! You won’t get to become one of the

Fords because Tobias will never marry you!”

Skylar forced a smile and asserted, “Oh? Why would I want to join the household of the Fords when Tobias had given

me everything I sought? Speaking of which, have you no shame as a fellow woman? Why don’t you stay away from

Sheldon when he has made himself clear it’s over between you and him?”

Skylar had rubbed salt into Winnie’s wound. As a result, Winnie yelled, “Thanks for your concerns, but that’s none of

your business because we’re just fine! Why don’t you mind your business instead of being a busybody, listening to

baseless accusations from others?”

Shrugging her shoulders, Skylar announced, “Am I not supposed to return the favor when you have expressed your

concerns over my relationship with Tobias?”

Winnie could barely suppress her wrath and started stomping her feet. She felt a strong urge to take out the

woman in front of her because she would be having a great time in life if Skylar hadn’t gotten in her way.

In the meantime, Skylar noticed a bunch of paparazzi had shown up and started following her the moment she

stepped out of the company.

Although it was something she had to deal with being a public figure, she found it unbearable since she would have

to carry herself in an elegant manner at all times. Otherwise, she would make it to the headline for something

negative.

Once she boarded the MPV that was parked nearby, she headed over to Miranda’s place.

When Skylar showed up, she saw her mother on the couch, watching television with a plate of fruits on the coffee

table.

Ever since she was released, she became a television addict and binge-watched a few melodramas.

Little did Skylar know it was an attempt to make up for the time she spent behind bars since convicts weren’t

allowed to have screen time when they were serving sentences.

Skylar brought the things she purchased from a nearby supermarket into the kitchen. When she opened the

refrigerator, she noticed there was not a single speck of dust inside.

She then turned around and asked the weeping woman on the couch, “Aren’t you supposed to get yourself

something to cook? What do you eat on a daily basis when there’s nothing for you to cook?”

Miranda, who was completely immersed in the melodrama, deadpanned her reply. “It’s quite a hassle to visit the

supermarket because I don’t have a car. I’ll just get someone else to deliver my meal. It’s not a big deal as long as I

have my phone with me. Besides, you’re the one paying since your credit card has been authorized for payment.”

Why does she behave as though she’s done nothing wrong when her life is completely messed up because of her

negligence?

Well, I guess I’m finally having a taste of my own medicine, huh? Is this how Tobias has been feeling whenever I

behave in a similar manner?

Then, Skylar started sorting the things she had purchased without taking a breather. On the other hand, Miranda

had no intention to offer her help.

When the episode she had been watching ended, she walked into the kitchen and announced, “Our neighbors have

been greeting me ever since Empyrean Sword airs.”

Skylar, who was in the middle of doing the dishes, wiped her hands dry and asked, “They have figured out our

relationship because of you, haven’t they? Mom, can you please lie low instead of garnering unnecessary

attention?”

Her mother found her dramatic and said, “Can’t I be proud of my exceptional daughter? My friends had distanced

themselves from me the moment I was thrown behind bars! I’m going to prove the realistic bunch wrong!”

Miranda had always enjoyed showing off. The years she spent behind bars hadn’t changed that bad habit of hers.
