Skylar immediately contacted the public relations department, asking them to clarify and clear up the
rumors.
Meanwhile, she commented under a few popular posts with her main account.
Are you telling me that I’m pregnant just because I went to a gynecologist? What if I was at the
crematorium? Does that mean that I was incinerated?
Soon enough, people started noticing her comment, and its popularity skyrocketed. Everyone was
impressed by her response.
News of the incident spread like wildfire, and Claudia caught wind of it, calling Tobias back straight
away.
When Tobias returned, before he could even sit down, Claudia was already in his face. “Tobias, is it
true? Is Skylar pregnant? Why didn’t you tell me! I was against your relationship, but there’s a child
involved now! I certainly want the child!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTobias snickered. “The news has reached so far, but it’s not true. She’s not pregnant.”
Claudia’s had a perplexed expression on her face after hearing that, relieved but disappointed at the
same time as she had wanted a grandchild for a long time.
Nevertheless, her two sons did not seem to have any intentions of granting her wish.
“Can you give me a grandchild before I pass on?” Claudia asked.
“I don’t really like kids,” Tobias answered ruthlessly. “ If you want grandchildren, you should just go and
adopt one from the orphanage.”
Claudia sighed at Tobias’ indifference. “How could you not have kids? What are you going to do with
the family fortune in the future? Give it away?”
Tobias, however, had never thought about what she said. “That sounds good. I should find a way to
redeem myself after committing so many sins.”
While all that was going on, Sheldon was upstairs eavesdropping with a bitter smile. Is he actually
going to give the company away? Winnie was right, then. I’m just trash to him.
Despite that, when Sheldon came down, the emotions he had were all perfectly hidden as he smiled.
“What’s going on? Did you upset Mom again, Tobias?”
“This doesn’t concern you.” Tobias glared at him. “You and I have some unfinished business to settle.”
Hearing that, Sheldon lowered his head and went to sit on the sofa, awaiting his brother’s
reprimanding.
“Now that the bar I gave you shut down for repairs, don’t you have anything to tell me?” Tobias’ gaze
filled with disappointment.
Sheldon expected the question since he knew Tobias had eyes everywhere monitoring him.
“There was a minor issue with fire safety. We’ll be back in business in no time.”
Tobias’ gaze was cold as ice, watching the lying Sheldon as it sent chills down his spine.
“Why did I hear rumors about the bar being involved in some shady businesses, then? No wonder the
profit had been increasing. You are so useless! Why can’t you do anything right? What have you

Right then, Sheldon closed his eyes and took in a deep breath. At that moment, all his pent-up
emotions could no longer be contained.
“Yes! I’m useless! I can never achieve what you achieved, Mr. Tobias Ford! Wealth, status, and power.
You have it all! And me? All I’ll ever be is a joe! Can you stop controlling everything I do? I’m a piece of
shit, so just let me rot, you hypocrite! You say that I’m fooling around with women, but what about you?
You’ve had plenty of women around you too! Are you going to cut them off when you don’t need them
anymore? I’m sure some women would even jump off of a building for you. Do you know why I’ve not
accomplished anything? It’s all thanks to you! You’re the one restricting my potential everywhere I go!”
As the confrontation unfolded before Claudia’s eyes, she immediately walked towards Sheldon, flinging
her arm towards his face, slapping him right on the cheek. She had teary eyes when she said,
“Apologize to your brother right now! How could you say something like that, Sheldon? Tobias has
done so much for you throughout all these years! Have you lost your mind?”
