It turned out Brayden had a thing for her. She had made herself clear and insisted on having the man filing for divorce with his spouse if he was serious. Unwilling to be a homewrecker, she wanted the man to send his child away as well.
Penelope is such a foolish woman! Does she really think she gets to live a carefree life just because she has given birth to Brayden’s child? He’s never a loyal man, and he would never forsake himself for his child’s wellbeing!
Since Eva wouldn’t move aside, Tobias asked, “Is there anything else? If there’s nothing else, why don’t you leave me alone?”
She finally returned to her senses and smiled in return. Susan caught a glimpse of Eva smiling and shot daggers at her in return.
Ever since Eva was promoted to be the assistant of the CEO, Susan felt a sense of insecurity because Eva was far more capable in a few different aspects.
Although Susan deemed Eva a smart woman, she found her too smart for her own good. Susan heard rumors of Eva telling others she would take over her position sooner or later.
However, Eva put on a pitiable front when Susan confronted her in person. The pretentious woman said, “Susan, are you kidding me? I would never say that! You have always been a reputable figure I look up to!”
As a result of Eva playing the victim, others would deem Susan the one at fault for picking on the vulnerable woman for nothing.
When Susan brought Tobias the evaluation report of Royal Entertainment, she saw him getting rid of the cup of cold coffee with a frown.
Eva was the one in charge of trivial matters as such, but she had repeated the same mistake more than once ever since she was promoted.
He crossed his legs and started perusing the report that had been handed over to him. As soon as he reached Skylar’s profile, he noticed she had risen through the ranks.
Soon, he cast the report aside after perusing Skylar’s profile. He massaged his swollen temples and asked, “What sort of gift does a woman appreciate on the day of the anniversary?”
Have I been hearing things again? Is he indicating he’s going to get someone a gift? He hasn’t mentioned anything about the woman, but I’m pretty sure he’s talking about Skylar!
Susan had a hard time comprehending the reason he was head over heels in love with her when he had always enjoyed a sense of serenity.
After much considerations, Susan suggested, “What about a diamond? No woman can resist the temptation of a diamond because it’s supposed to last for eternity. With that being said, it’s a biased opinion coming from a materialistic woman.”
Tobias answered with a smile, “How can you consider yourself materialistic? If you’re as materialistic as you have claimed, I’m sure you have stocked up a pile of gold.”
When he recalled the things Skylar had brought up in the restaurant in the afternoon, he got infuriated because she made herself clear she was irked and told her she once thought of getting into a relationship with others.
Is she indicating I’m not the loyal man she’s searching for? Hello? I have stopped engaging with other women ever since we’re in love! What else am I supposed to do to prove I’m a loyal man? Halfway through his process of thoughts, he instructed with a callous tone, “Can you get me something in return? I’m not an expert when it comes to choosing a gift.”
Susan noticed that something seemed to be bothering Tobias because of his scrunched-up face. Thus, she asked in a hushed voice, “Mr. Ford, what sort of ring should I get you? Can a two-carat diamond ring do?”
He took a peek at her and answered indifferently, “It’s very thoughtful of you to try to save up on my behalf, but that won’t be necessary. Get me one that’s at least ten-carat. I’ll leave the rest to you. As long as it’s able to prove my sincerity, it’s fine.”
