Chapter 61
Skylar had a second chance at life. There was nothing for her to be afraid of.
She had her family and friends backing her up. So, she wasn’t afraid of burning bridges.
She suppressed the pain within her heart and said her last word. “I was blinded to have wanted to get in your good books, Mrs. Williams. You don’t deserve to be my mother.”
Sadie stared at the phone after she was hung up on. Her ears were ringing.
For some reason, Skylar’s words kept replaying in her head. She said that she didn’t deserve to be her
mother?
She was Jeffrey’s wife. She was a reputable person within Jipsburg City. Her three sons were outstanding achievers in their respective fields, while her daughter, Maisy, was magnificent and beautiful.
All she did was look down upon and rebuke Skylar, who was mistakenly adopted. Yet, she now claimed she didn’t deserve to be her mother?
If this happened before, Sadie wouldn’t have been bothered by what Skylar said. But, right then, Sadie felt
disturbed.
Maisy noticed the frown on Sadie’s face and became anxious. “Mom, is Skylar refusing to apologize and let this go? Does she still hate me even though Christopher has already given his side of the story?
“If it doesn’t work out, I will just admit to everything. Then, I’ll seek shelter overseas and let her come back home again.”
“Forget about her. She’s still stubborn and refusing to change. Let your brothers work on having this issue die down as soon as possible. Let’s not make such a fuss with Skylar,” Sadie said, frowning.
Deep down, Maisy was shocked. What did Skylar say earlier? Why was Sadie trying to smooth things over
with her?
Sadie didn’t even turn down the idea when she offered to apologize and leave the country. She didn’t have a go at Skylar, either. Instead, she just said not to make such a fuss with her.
She wanted to not make a fuss? How could this be?
Without Sadie realizing it, Maisy messaged her three brothers.
“Skylar called earlier. She’s still refusing to apologize. She was also rude toward Mom. I feel like all these happened because of me, so I should be the one to end it. Maybe I should just yield and admit that what Skylar said was right.”
Peter: “You can’t do that, Maisy. She was the one who was wrong, so she should be punished.”
Kenny: “Leave this to us. Don’t be afraid.”
Samuel: “It’s so annoying to have Skylar as a sister!”
A smile of satisfaction came across Maisy’s face when she saw their replies. She gave it some thought
before she also made a post.

Within a few minutes, a bunch of followers commented with their support and trust toward her.
She’d like to see what else Skylar had up her sleeve!
Ten minutes later, Maisy had put on a sheet mask chirpily. She planned to go shopping with some friends
later.
All she had to do was act miserable, and her brothers would be able to settle the issue. Plus, Skylar’s hands were tied. She wouldn’t be able to create a stir.
Even if someone else discovered the videos, their PR team would be able to cover up the truth behind it. She didn’t have anything to worry about.
Just then, Kenny messaged their group. The tone of his message sounded urgent.
“Samuel, did the company’s PR team even do their job right? Why is there so much negative news against Maisy on the internet? Wait a second, this video…”
“Maisy, you spent the night with Christopher at a hotel?
