Tobias glanced at Avery from the corner of his eye and plainly remarked, “Your sister claimed that you went on a date and gave her the clothes. Furthermore, you asked her to come and accompany me. Is that what happened?”

Avery pleaded with Skylar with her eyes, hoping that she would help confirm the lie.

Skylar shrugged her shoulders. “I didn’t say anything. Besides, I’m not a pimp. Why would I arrange ladies for you?”

Avery’s expression changed drastically. If looks could kill, Skylar would probably be dead.

Avery sobbed, “Skylar, how can you do this to me? You’re denying everything you’ve said to me?”

Skylar watched as Avery continued with her act. Even her fake cries sounded more coquettish than sad.

 

In front of everyone, Tobias put his hands around Skylar’s waist and moved his lips close to her ear. “Go ahead and tell the truth. There’s no need to hold back in front of me.”

Skylar shook her head. “I don’t know what happened. I put the box on the table and when I returned, it was gone.”

 

Avery’s face turned pale as Skylar didn’t even help her one bit. To her, it was the ultimate betrayal.

She swore that she would never leave Skylar in peace till the day she died.
