Chapter 36


    Being sensitive as she was, Skr was always concerned about how others would feel, even though no


    one cared about how she felt.

    She was about to get out of the car when Tobias grabbed her by the waist. “It’s better to have a man


    around you as you look so weak. Aren’t you afraid of being bullied?”


    Better? I’ve seen how things got “better”st night with you around me.


    You didn’t y by the rules at all and actually allowed Jeremy to get off so cheap.


    He then leaned closer to her and said with his lips pressing against her ear, “I won’t cause you trouble. I’ll


    go in with you.”


    Skr noticed that his hand was moving down her body as he touched her, teasing her like how he


    always did.


    Thus, she had no choice but to agree to him.


    “Who’s this, Skr?” Standing in the doorway, Wesley scrutinized the man standing next to his niece.


    “My friend…” Skr introduced him perfunctorily as she could not say that this man was her sugar


    daddy.


    “Boyfriend,” Tobias corrected.


    Skr shot him a look. Evidently, she was ashamed to say that they were a couple.


    Wesley had met Skr’s boyfriend before and knew that he was a tall young man with a gentlemanly


    appearance.


    Whereas the man in front of him now was obviously much older than Skr was even though he was


    good-looking and so much taller than Jeremy.


    Nheless, Wesley let them in and gave them two pairs of old dirty house-slippers.


    Tobias was obviously disgusted by it.


    Seeing that Skr hade back again, Sharon mocked, “Why did you bring another person with you


    when our ce is already so small?”


    Tobias gave her a cold look.


    “We won’t stay for long and will leave soon,” exined Skr.


    At first nce, Tobias disliked how Sharon looked as her high cheekbones and thin eyebrows gave the


    impression that she was mean-spirited.


    “Why didn’t you tell me about my mom’s application for medical parole?” Skr asked politely without


    being confrontational.


    Sighing, Wesley replied, “What’s the point of telling you? Can you afford her treatment after she’s


    released on medical parole?”


    Tobias cast a fleeting nce at Wesley. “Isn’t she your sister? Why can’t you pay for it?”


    Meanwhile, Sharon cleaned the chip crumbs that were left on her fingers and said, “Did you seriously


    think we’ve never thought of that before? We’re barely surviving over here! Where would we get the


    money for that? By talking? Huh? Why don’t you tell me, Mr. Smarty-Pants!”


    Skr had never expected her uncle and aunt to help either, so she secretly tugged at Tobias’ sleeve,


    trying to stop him from talking.


    Then, she said in a low voice, “I just wanna know how my mom is doing. Someone from the prison called


    me today, but I didn’t get to ask them.”


    “Hmph… She’s still as deranged as ever. Listen to me, Skr, don’t let here out. It’ll be a burden.


    It’s not like you can take care of her or even afford her treatment!” Wesley replied with a grunt.


    Upon hearing him saying something so mean, Skr could stand it anymore and stood up angrily, her


    eyes slightly reddened. “Uncle Wesley, my mom is your sister. How can you be so cruel?”


    Sharon rolled her eyes at her. “Hey! We don’t need this kind of sister. I mean, just look at your mom!


    What did she ever do to contribute to the family?”


    If it weren’t for Skr, Tobias would have never known how ignoble people like them were.


    Wrapping his arm around Skr’s shoulders, Tobias said gently, “I told you. You’re just wasting your time


    here. Why must you talk about family ties with an animal?”


    His cruel words hit the nail on the head.
