In fact, Penelope had told her earlier that she had yet to have anything to eat since the morning, and it was already three in the afternoon.
After making a simple dish for Penelope, Skylar left in a hurry.
Although she had made sure her cap was covering her face, Zelda, who came down from a blue Porsche, still recognized her.
Skylar knew it was not a coincidence for her to encounter Zelda here. After all, it was impossible for someone like Zelda to appear in a small residential area like this. The only reason for her visit would be that she was here for Penelope.
When the two locked eyes, Skylar looked away guiltily before saying, “Ms. York, what a coincidence.”
Taking out a cigarette from the box, Zelda placed it between her red lips before answering, “Yes, what a coincidence. Ms. Jones, do you live here? This doesn’t seem like Mr. Ford’s style. This place doesn’t suit your current status.”
Skylar chuckled. “My friend lives here, so I came to visit her.”
At that, Zelda stared at Skylar and uttered, “Then, it is such a coincidence. I’m not going to go in. Please tell your friend, Ms. Jones, that I know there’s nothing to do now that the baby is too big. She can have it if she wants to. However, I’d say she’ll be losing more than gaining.”
Skylar froze as Zelda flashed her a smile. Zelda knows everything. She just never said anything until now.
It seemed as though she did not care about anything, but actually, she knew everything about what Brayden was doing.
Hence, Skylar did not explain on behalf of Penelope. After all, Penelope was the one who had done wrong in this matter. No explanations would be able to make her the one in the right.
That was why Skylar said, “I’ll convey your message to her. Ms. York, are you going back now? My friend isn’t at home.”
There were many videos of wives beating up mistresses circulating on the internet. Skylar did not want the same to happen to Penelope.
Penelope’s stomach was gigantic by now. If anything physical were to happen, she might die along with her baby.
Zelda snorted. She knew Skylar was afraid that she would make things difficult for the mistress. How foolish. I’ll be dirtying my hands if I were to deal with that b*tch myself.
The words “let me leave” were written all over Skylar’s face, so Zelda turned to go back into the car. Before she left, she wound down the window and reminded, “Don’t assume that youth is everything for a girl. None of these men are good people. You think they’re in love with you, but you’re wrong. They’re all heartless men.”
Skylar knew what Zelda meant. The latter was reminding her that the chances for her to have a bad ending were high.
After the other woman left, Skylar took out her phone and searched for Penelope in her contacts.
With her head lowered, she rapidly typed out a whole paragraph of words, persuading Penelope to plan for her future and warning her against thinking that Brayden would give her anything. Skylar even told her not to destroy someone else’s marriage.
However, just as her finger hovered over the send button, she deleted everything.
Penelope would not heed her words, anyway.
Winnie was suffering because of what Skylar had done. Winnie debuted in a talent show, and those who entered the entertainment industry through talent shows were known to be exceptionally resistant to scandals.
When her fans realized she was getting bullied, they began attacking others online. They had been lying in wait when Winnie’s haters were thriving. Once the rumors died down, they reemerged.
