After what Penelope had been through, she had lost all trust in men. She did not even think Tobias and Skylar’s relationship would last.
“Whatever, I don’t really care. I can’t have a child now that my career is starting to take off. Only celebrities who are really famous can afford to get married and have a family. People like me still need to maintain an image in public.”
Penelope nodded in agreement. It was not easy for Skylar to be where she was today. If she had a child now, it would be the end of her career, but what worried Penelope was Tobias.
He never once talked about making their relationship official. Penelope did not want her friend to end up like her. If Tobias turned his back against her after she was with a child, Skylar would be the one who lost everything.
Skylar left after a short visit. She saw Sharon talking to the neighbors when she passed her uncle’s house. It was easy as pie for Skylar to guess what they were talking about.
Sharon would either be talking about cars, houses, her perfect daughter, or Skylar herself and how she was still a little-known actress.
Skylar turned and left through another way.
She finally convinced herself to buy the house for Miranda the moment she saw Sharon bragging with her neighbor.
Skylar knew people looked at her mother differently ever since she came out of prison.
