Suppressing her emotions, Penelope asked, “Don't you want to know how the kid is doing?”
Realization dawned on Brayden. “Oh, right. How's she doing?”
Of course, Penelope could tell that Brayden did not take their daughter seriously at all. She always felt sorry for her daughter and blamed herself for not giving her an intact family.
“You can visit her. She can talk now and always calls out 'Daddy.'“
Just when Penelope was about to take out her phone to show him the photo of their daughter, someone came over to greet Brayden.
Brayden pointed to the side and said, “If you'll excuse me. Let's talk again sometime.”
Skylar, who saw their interaction, walked over and said indignantly, “Can't you come to your senses after watching so many self-help programs? Why even bother to keep in touch with this sc*mbag?”
With a disappointed look in her eyes, Penelope found herself unable to calm down. She thought that she had moved on, but it turned out that she was just deceiving herself.
She even tried to defend herself by explaining, “It's not that I haven't gotten over him. I just wanted an intact family for my daughter.”
Skylar felt helpless. She knew that she could not wake a person who was pretending to be asleep.
It was just like when everyone around her told her that her relationship with Tobias would not last, she still chose to believe that effort was everything.
When a black Maybach parked ostentatiously in the middle of the hotel entrance, Lilian got into Sheldon's car under everyone's gaze.
Winding down the car window, Sheldon saw Skylar, but he did not wave to her, fearing that it would affect her badly.
Tobias had already told him not to reveal his relationship with Skylar.
