Chapter 297


    Something is off. There’s no way the man would agree to such a ridiculous idea. Skr questioned


    further, “Did you ckmail Thomas Jones to force him to divorce his wife and remarry you?”


    Her question caught Miranda off guard. However, Miranda yed dumb and chuckled. “What are you


    talking about? I am an ex-convict. How am I supposed to ckmail him? Your dad feels guilty for what


    he did, so he wants to makepensation.”


    After hearing what Miranda said, Skr burst into sarcastic chuckles. How can she say that with a


    straight face?


    Thomas Jones was never a soft-hearted man. Instead, he was selfish and merciless. If he meant to


    compensate them, he would’ve done it years ago.


    Skr recalled her difficult childhood. She had lived a careful and frugal life since she was young. She


    would’ve been long dead if it weren’t for Grandma. Thomas was never there for her. He just left her to


    fend herself. He only cared about his new family. He brought the entire family on overseas tours and


    gave them everything they wanted. He even bought Avery a yacht on her tenth birthday.


    Skr’s heart ached when she recalled what the merciless man had done to her and her mother. She


    knew Miranda was stubborn as a mule. It seemed that she was unable to get anything out of Miranda.


    Anyhow, Skr gave her a gentle reminder. “Thomas Jones is having a hard time now. Hispany is in


    the red and it’s on the brink of bankruptcy. You, of all people, should know that the only person who can


    help him is Irene Ziegler, with the power of the Ziegler family. I’ve told you whatever you need to know. If


    you keep being stubborn, there’s nothing else I can do.”


    Miranda sneered at her statements. She didn’t believe a word. A smart, sessful businessman like


    Thomas would never let anything bad happen to hispany. Even if thepany had some issues,


    they would be child’s ys to Thomas.

    Although Miranda didn’t give any response, her eyes were filled with determination. Right then, Skr


    knew that Miranda had made up her mind and whatever she said earlier had gone down the drain.


    Thomas would never divorce Irene Ziegler unless he was ready to give up his life.


    However, it’s Mom’s choice. She’s old enough to make her own decision. Skr was done with her, for


    she had tried her best to talk Miranda out of it.


    Miranda reached out to Skr’s hand and smiled at her. “Skr, can you give me some money? I’m a bit


    tight on money recently. I need to buy a few dresses.”


    I gave her four hundred fifty thousandst month, yet she spent all the money in just a month! I guess


    I’ve been too harsh on myself and should’ve pampered myself instead.


    Looking at Miranda’s luxurious clothing and essories, Skr raised her eyebrows with a smirk on her


    face. “I’m penniless. Why not you get money from Thomas Jones? He’s trying topensate us for his


    sins, isn’t he? Why are you backing off now? He can give you whatever you want. Enjoy your meal. I’m


    leaving now.”


    “Tobias can help, can’t he? He’s rich. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind being a filial son-inw in advance.”


    Skr wasn’t surprised by her mother’s shameless statement.


    She gave a self-mockingugh. “You’re being ridiculous. What makes you think he’ll marry me?”


    Skr had given up on the thought of marrying Tobias. It was merely impossible.


    Who will be my husband then?


    Marriage was something beyond her reach.
