Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 209

 

Skylar made her way to Miranda’s ward in the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Department and saw her knitting a sweater.

Miranda put the needle and thread down when she saw Skylar and motioned at her to sit down beside her.

Skylar was a little excited at first as she thought Miranda had made her a sweater, but a closer inspection revealed that it was for men. The sweater was halfway done and only lacked a sleeve to make it complete.

“Do you think it’ll fit your dad?” Miranda smiled gleefully while showing off her work.

“Why are you making Dad a sweater? He never paid you a single visit during your time in prison!” Had the doctors not confirmed Miranda’s full recovery, Skylar would’ve thought she was still crazy.

“He must’ve had his reasons. I know he still loves us, Skylar. I mean, how else would you still be alive today if he didn’t? You should learn to be grateful, you know?” Miranda gazed at the sweater and imagined how Thomas would look wearing it.

 

It took Skylar every ounce of her strength to refrain from going on a rant about how Meredith was the one who paid for her school fees and daily expenses, all with that meager salary of hers.

However, she knew there was no point in telling Miranda that as all she could think of was how amazing Thomas was.

 

Even when Thomas cheated on her back then, Miranda simply blamed everything on the fact that Irene was able to give birth to a son.

Given how old-fashioned and patriarchal Skylar’s grandparents were, it came as no surprise that they wanted a son to help carry on the family lineage. Naturally, Irene fulfilled that wish of theirs and replaced Miranda’s position in the family by giving birth to Hayden before the divorce even took place.

To make matters worse, Miranda had to have her uterus surgically removed due to excessive bleeding when giving birth to Skylar, so having children was no longer possible for her.
