Chapter 487
Thomas was tortured and distressed, feeling as though a thorn was simply stuck in his flesh, prickling
him every so often. However, he couldn’t exin the matter to his son and daughter.
Indeed, Skr and her mother had dirt on him. He had been gued with uneasiness ever since
Miranda was released from prison. And now that Skr was aware of the truth of the matter, no one
knew how much longer it would remain a secret.
Irene red at her husband with eyes filled with fury and disappointment. “Thomas Jones, I’ll divorce you
if you dare publish that post! Are you trying to announce to the world that I was the third party who
wrecked your marriage back then? I have no objections to you proiming yourself as the modern Julius
Caesar, but how am I supposed to hold up my head in public henceforth? The Ziegler family is a
prominent family, so I was already lowering myself when I married you. I’m now up in years, yet you’re
not even leaving me my reputation?”

“Just put up with it for a bit, okay? The public will quickly lose interest, anyway. Besides, it won’t do us
any good to offend Tobias Ford,” Thomas gently coaxed, looking morose and dejected.
Sneering, Irene stared at him coldly. “You’re really a coward. I’ll have awyer prepare the divorce
agreement. The choice is in your hands.”
After Thomas had published the post, Skr then published her long Twitter post half a dayter.
As for Miranda havingmitted murder in the past, she portrayed it in such a way that it was self-
defense.
She weaved a long story on Twitter about a woman who was betrayed by her husband and threatened
by his mistress. The mistress moved into the house and threw her and her daughter out into the streets
in the freezing winter without even a penny, leaving them to starve.
Later on, the pitiful mother was ced in shackles and went to prison, leaving the abandoned little girl to
be taken in by her elderly grandmother.
Being poor, the little girl matured faster than her peers, living a hand-to-mouth existence with her
grandmother. Before she attended high school, she had never worn any new clothes. And the year she
took her college entrance examination, her grandmother passed away…
Meanwhile, the mother thought life would be better after being released from prison, but people hurled
abuses at her without giving her an opportunity to turn over a new leaf.
The final sentence Skr wrote was this – The little girl asked her mother, “What exactly did we do
wrong, Mommy?”
After she published that Twitter post, many of theizens who were previously calling for her to leave
the entertainment industry did a one-eighty. The female fans on Twitter cried at the post and condemned
Thomas for being a cheating b*stard, even going so far as to stamp him as a spineless coward.

In the blink of an eye, Skr’s sensational news shot up to the top of the trending list. In fact, its
poprity wasparable with the news of a popr actress going to Anndur to be a surrogate back
then, the number of hits skyrocketing.
This time, she didn’t take an aggressive stance and issue any statement about suing for defamation.
Instead, she merely portrayed herself as the victim, yet her poprity actually soared.
Naturally, Avery was also dragged into the mess. Theizens had zero tolerance for a homewrecker, so
her daughter was also disdained.
After all, no matter how inadequate the wife was, she still had the upper hand.
As Tobias scrolled through his Twitter page, the corners of his mouth lifted. Well, well… I wonder what
Skr did to coerce the cunning Thomas Jones into doing this, ruining his own reputation.
When Skr received his call at the office, he didn’t even ask her whether she was free but told her
outright that he had made a reservation for dinner.
And the moment she arrived, she noticed that he had already ordered the dishes. However, there wasn’t
a single dish that was to her taste. The fare was mostly nutritious in nature, with several being downright
nd, in fact.
Disappointed engulfed her. Ah, we’ve been dating for so long, yet he still doesn’t know my likes and
dislikes, huh?
“Congrattions on your recent shot to stardom.” Tobias poured her a cup of green tea.
Skr, however, didn’t drink it. Instead, she asked the waiter for a ss of fresh orange juice.
shing him a faint smile, she replied, “Well, adversity made me stronger. While I’m no pegasus, I’m still
an old thoroughbred. Despite being weak, I still aspire to reach greater heights though it takes time…”
