Holding the admission letter in her hand, she felt growing hatred for Jeremy upon her flashbacks to the past.
She had sacrificed too much for the previous relationship.
Meanwhile, Tobias did not break his promise as she got the admission letter the day after she moved in.
She took a picture of the letter and sent it to Penelope.
Penelope texted back in mere seconds: What?
Skylar replied back: That’s right. I’m going to university! I’m finally no longer a high school graduate!
Instantly, Penelope texted: Wait… Didn’t you give all your tuition fees to Jeremy? Where did you get the money? From a crowdfunding platform?
Skylar then responded: I don’t have the audacity to do that and get verbally attacked by those benevolent people out there. Anyway, it’s a long story.
After a few seconds, Penelope replied: Make it short then. Where did you get your tuition fees? Your dad?
Skylar texted back: You should definitely stop daydreaming. Anyhow, I’ll tell you in person next time!
Hearing the notification sound of her phone, Skylar ignored it and did not reply to Penelope; it was easier for her to tell the latter about it clearly in person.
Apart from going downstairs for food, Skylar spent almost the entire day in the room.
Laura’s attitude toward her was lukewarm.
As Tobias was not home, Laura acted like the lady of the house and even invited her best friend over.
While Skylar was going down the stairs to get some water, she heard Laura complaining to her best friend as they chatted loudly downstairs.
“It’s nice to be on my own here. Unexpectedly, Mr. Ford brings a woman to live here. Now I have to wait on her every day, and I can’t even sleep in. That girl gets up earlier than a chicken.”
“Didn’t you say that Tobias is getting married soon? Is the woman his fiancée?” asked Laura’s friend.
“How could it be possible? If it were Ms. Hanson, I would be willing to serve her. But this woman is just some riffraff.”
