Skylar V: Sorry for causing some kind of panic and wasting everyone’s time. How does one have a child without even having a partner, though? p/s: Don’t believe folk remedies related to childbirth.
When Skylar updated her social media account, she felt her hands tremble. Taking a step back, she decided to reflect on all that happened. Even if Tobias was being indifferent, she did not want to come clean about their relationship. That would definitely affect her career.
With the awards ceremony coming soon, Kate was hinting at her to win the Golden Eagle Goddess. Thus, she could not afford any mistakes now.
Skylar was currently in third place, but there was still hope for her yet. Ironically, the votes seemed to consist of a male majority, at seventy percent.
She seemed to check all of their boxes, where the male appeal was concerned.
Sheldon, who was seated in the passenger side next to Tobias, chimed in jokingly. “Tobias, Skylar keeps insisting that she’s single, but I think there’s a bit of an affair happening here. Who is hiding who? Why does it seem like Skylar is the one trying to keep you hidden? Imagine the tabloids if they catch hold of this juicy gossip! The CEO of the Ford Group and popular actress – a secret romance!”
Tobias liked the update Skylar posted and glanced at Sheldon. “You should consider going abroad. I’ve opened a new factory, and you can go there to help run it. A change of pace would be nice, I think. Maybe you’ll find someone, settle down, have a few babies. Doesn’t Skylar have tips on how to have boys? Go on and give it a go. Mom is dying to have grandkids.”
This silenced Sheldon immediately. He shuddered at the prospect of having to date someone foreign. It was too intimidating.
He was still interested in pursuing influencers but did not have a specific target in mind. The few he set his eye on looked too different from their pictures.
Thus, he disliked how prevalent filters were these days. Who knew how many innocent male hearts have been broken by this?
Nonetheless, Sheldon also accepted his fate and acknowledged that there was a pecking order of sorts. This was an uphill battle for him. He had been brainwashed by Winnie, and with Tobias making a fuss over it, it still resulted in humiliation for him. All of this was made very clear to him now – it was better for him to be a hedonist and indulge.
When he got tired of that lifestyle, then he could very well just find a woman and settle down. The rest of his life would then be lived just as artlessly.
