Hearing Penelope’s brazen words, her face turned red. “Yes, but he never gave me any promises. He has a fiancée too. I am so confused right now. Should I go talk to him?” she said calmly.
Penelope was rendered speechless. Although Skylar was her best friend, she said bluntly, “Skylar, how could you do this? Why are you messing with a man who has a fiancée? You are not this kind of person. Is he loaded?”
Even though Skylar had expected Penelope to react this way, she still felt ashamed of herself when her friend said those words to her face.
After all, Tanya and Tobias’ wedding was merely postponed, not canceled. In fact, Skylar also heard that Tanya was staying with the Ford family.
She pursed her lips as she tried to calm herself. If this situation continued on, she would definitely break down soon.
“He is quite rich, but that has never been my concern. It’s just that I found myself starting to feel an attachment to him.”
Penelope believed what she said. In her opinion, Skylar was not a materialistic woman. Hence, the only possible explanation was that she was fooled by that man.
Penelope remarked indignantly, “You need to have a clean break with that guy. Considering that he is still messing around when he has a fiancée, he is no doubt an unscrupulous person. Besides, he has not contacted you in such a long time. It means that he doesn’t even care about you. Skylar, just forget about this vile man! If you want, I can even teach him a lesson on your behalf.”
Penelope had always been a daring person and was practically fearless. At times, Skylar really envied her strong character, unlike herself who was always submissive.
Penelope clenched her teeth. “Skylar, keep your head clear and focus on your career. When you’re famous, you can get any man you want. It’s only degrading to be with a jerk like him.”
