Chapter 332


    The news of Maverick’s sudden death went viral.


    His death came as a sudden shock. Nevertheless, it allowed Skr to heave a sigh of relief as she no


    longer had a crazy person stalking her.


    Meanwhile, Skr saw Miranda at the entrance when she returned. She was holding two big bags filled


    with vegetables and fruits.


    When she saw Skr, she quickly handed her the bags before stretching her arms to relieve the


    soreness in them. “My arms are killing me. Why are you back sote, and why are you alone? Where’s


    Tobias? Have the both of you broken up? I haven’t seen him in a while. He seems to be fine with leaving


    a young girl like you here alone.”


    After receiving the bags, Skr didn’t invite Miranda in. Just when she was about to shut the door,


    Miranda stuffed her leg in between the gap.


    Skr almost mmed the door on her foot. By then, she had no choice but to let Miranda in.


    As Miranda hadn’t seen Tobias in a long time, she began to feel fearful. If Skr and Tobias broke up,


    she wouldn’t be able to carry out Thomas’ instructions.


    After putting the groceries in the kitchen, Skr replied, “He’s busy.”


    Miranda scoffed at her exnation. She felt that it was Skr’s ipetence that had caused Tobias to


    grow distant.


    Skr asked, “Since you have just reconciled with that ex-husband of yours, why are you here?


    Shouldn’t you be striking while the iron is still hot? Stop wasting time here.”


    Miranda admonished her, “That’s really rude of you. He’s your dad for goodness sake.”


    Skr squirmed as that was already her best attempt at being civil. Are you expecting me to address him


    as Dad?


    However, she didn’t correct herself. At the same time, she gave Miranda advanced notice. “This year, I’m


    not going with you to Uncle Wesley’s ce. I don’t feel like going anywhere.”


    Miranda rejected her outright. “How can you not go? It’s a family gathering and it would be rude of you to


    be absent.”


    Skr asked, “What can I do to avoid it then?”


    Miranda replied, “Of course, if you are going to spend it with Tobias, I will definitely support your


    decision.”


    Skr shrugged as she exined in a powerless tone, “Mom, you are getting ahead of yourself. Didn’t


    you understand a word Tobias said to you? He does not n on getting married. In other words, he


    doesn’t n to marry me at all. Who do you think I am to cling to him shamelessly? Aren’t you worried


    about being chased out?”


    Miranda felt that Skr was uttering nonsense. After all, Thomas had told her that Tobias had fallen for


    her daughter.


    Why is she being so secretive?


    When Miranda left after receiving a call from Thomas, Skr quickly shut the door and ended their


    conversation.


    The moment Miranda returned to her vi, Tobias stopped her at the entrance. He asked impatiently,


    “Have you talked to Skr about Tobias’ takeover of thepany? It’s a lot better that you talk to her


    than I do.”


    Miranda pped herself on her forehead and remarked, “Oh, I forgot. You should see how messy things


    are now. Tobias hasn’t visited in a long time, and Skr doesn’t seem to be in a good mood. Who knows


    if they have broken up or not.”


    The moment he heard the words “broken up,” Thomas’ expression drastically changed.


    As the new year approached, Skr’s drama, Unrequited Love, was broadcasted over Channel 3 at


    primetime. Despite it being her first drama, she managed to snag the female lead’s role.


    When the first episode was screened, the ratings went through the roof.


    Skr finally felt that she was bing famous. Her social media followers grew by half a million


    overnight.


    When her fans broke one million, her agent paid for her name to be promoted as the top trending topic.


    However, there were many die-hard fans that were critical of her performance after the drama had been


    screened. They felt she was too flirtatious and wasn’t as innocent as the original character.


    The most poprments online were the ones that disapproved of her appearance.


    She looks too coquettish. What an insult to the original work.


    She looks like a b*tch. I’ll pass.


    Winnie’s acting is good. Why is she the supporting actress?

    I don’t like how the female lead looks. She’s just too mean…


    Skr was universally epted to be beautiful. Thements showed just how unforgivingdies can


    be to pretty women.


    When she saw thements disparaging her, Skrughed. The most she could do was to check her


    face in the mirror. It’s not a crime to be born beautiful.
