Skylar felt aggrieved. She did not feel like she did anything wrong. Nevertheless, she had always been oppressed like that in the past, anyone would start feeling like letting it out at this point.
However, Skylar stayed calm. “I’m leaving now. Sorry for spoiling your mood. Eva, you should get some more food on your boyfriend’s plate. Don’t let me affect his appetite.”
Eva stared at Skylar, infuriated by her comments.
I would’ve never brought David here if I knew this would happen. Now, he’ll just think we’re a mediocre family.
After Skylar left, Miranda apologized to her relatives awkwardly, but she actually agreed with what Skylar had said.
During her time in jail, the only person that ever came to visit was her mother who brought Skylar with her.
Not once did her own brother visited her.
Meanwhile, Skylar got out of the house and heard a car honking from afar. She instinctively looked towards the direction of the noise.
She stood there, looking at a car she did not recognize and scratched her head. What am I thinking? Why would Tobias be here?
All of a sudden, Skylar’s phone rang. It was Tobias.
“Ms. Jones, what are you standing there for? Hop on…”
Right then, Skylar realized that the car she was looking at really was Tobias’. Hence, she immediately ran over to open the door and hopped into the passenger seat. Up to the point where she fastened the seat belt, the whole process was smooth like butter.
“Why are you so nice all of a sudden? You’re even here to pick me up.” Skylar showed Tobias a near perfect smile.
His hands were on the steering wheel when he replied, “I was worried that you might get bullied at the dinner and I’ll have to rush in for you.”
“I’m not that weak you know. No one would dare to bully me,” Skylar affirmed.
There was still a hint of smoke indicating that Tobias lit a cigarette just now. The opened window also pointed towards the same indication.
