The last time Claudia was hospitalized, she was warded into the ICU as her condition was extremely serious. Luckily, they managed to get a foreign specialist to treat her.
The doctor had constantly reminded them that she could not undergo any stress. And that became Tobias’ weakness which Tanya seized upon.
“Ms. Jones, I’m sure you can see how I’m unable to pleasure Tobias in my current condition. Hence, you’re just my replacement for the time being. But, you will soon end up just like me,” Tanya sobbed.
She had inadvertently become the “wife” that everyone sympathized with. Her “husband” cheated on her while she was pregnant despite the fact that Tobias and her were not actually married.
“Enough, do you have no shame?” Tobias pulled Skylar closer to him and he could feel that her body was slightly trembling.
Many onlookers had surrounded them and watched the commotion.
Skylar felt the full brunt of their condescending gazes and mockery. Anyone who had a sense of justice would naturally sympathize with the pregnant Tanya.
Tobias vented his frustrations on the bodyguards who were also watching from behind. “Send my mom and Ms. Hanson home.”
Tobias wanted to take Skylar away as she didn’t deserve to go through this.
He was stumped by such humiliation. In the business world, he was ruthless and decisive in whatever he did. In fact, he would do whatever it takes to achieve his gains.
However, resolving this problem was just like walking through a minefield. He had to be careful not to ignite any one of them for fear that his mother’s condition would deteriorate.
He neither had the luxury to be gentle nor harsh. Tanya was staying with his mother on the account that she saved her life.
To the extent that he suspected someone had actually caused his mother to fall unconscious on the streets.
