    Chapter 669 Is Your Daughter Of Age


    Avery stopped crying at once when Tobias arrived. It gave everybody the impression that she was


    mature enough to cease her tears for the collective good despite her pain.


    Skr regained herposure as well. It became clear to her that she was an outsider no matter what


    Colleen said.


    At the first sign of a confrontation, Colleen stood on Avery''s side to gang up on me. No matter what she


    says after this, I will never believe her anymore. I have seen where her priorities lie today.


    Skr did not know that Tobias was going to show up that night as she had not intended to extend the


    invitation to him.


    Wherever he went, Tobias was always at the center of attention with people simpering all around him.


    He merely nodded to those who he did not know well as a means to return their greeting.


    Skr remained where she was and waited for Tobias to approach her.


    His empty hands indicated that he did note to celebrate Thomas'' birthday. Dressed in a suit of


    emerald green, his looksplemented Skr and her ck dress.


    To Skr''s surprise, Tobias did not even nce in her direction as he made his way up the stairs with


    Thomas.


    Her eyes followed him up the stairs, puzzled at being treated like a stranger.


    “He didn''t even look at you since he came in,” Avery whispered with savage pleasure. “Looks like he


    lost interest in you! The trouble with having big dreams is that they can never be fulfilled.”


    She was just crying a minute ago! Is nobody else seeing this bullsh*t? What a two-faced b*tch!


    Skr smirked, unbothered by her half-sister''s scathing remark. “Is that so?” she replied lightly. “He


    wouldn''t even be here if it weren''t for me. As for the marriage, I''m eagerly awaiting the day I ask you to


    be my bridesmaid.”


    Avery red at her. I regret not having some boys to deal with her when we were in school together.


    Her arrogant attitude is insufferable.


    Just then, Colleen summoned Skr to walk with her to the garden. It was cold outside and Skr only


    had a thin shawl around her shoulders. The cold wind blowing on her face made her head throb

    painfully. Shuddering, she sneezed.


    Colleen noticed that Skr appeared a little more distant than she used to be.


    “It urred to me that my words might have been uttered without consideration of your feelings,”


    Colleen began slowly. “Your sister means well, you know. I don''t understand why you two wouldn''t stop


    quarreling. We''re all family. For my sake, could you at least try to get along with Avery?”


    Skrughed coldly. “What about me? If you actually respected me as you im, you would refrain


    from bringing this up again in the future. Please warn your beloved granddaughter against executing


    whatever scheme she might be tempted to concoct.”


    Colleen thought that Meredith had really ruined her. Children that grew up in the vige tend to be more


    calctive, narrow-minded, and vengeful. If I was the one to have raised Skr, she could have turned


    out differently. I have to take things slow with the girl.


    Although Colleen longed for Skr to reunite with the family, she was exasperated at how thetter


    seemed convinced that her own family was against her.


    Tobias and Thomas went up the stairs. Thomas set to work at once and brewed a pot of his best tea as


    his guest took a seat.


    Tobias did not care for the nauseatingly sweet tea like he did not care for matters regarding the Jones


    family.


    “Is your daughter of age?” he asked curtly.
