In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 139

Panic rose in Thomas’ heart as his right ear rang. “Skylar, I’ve worked hard for so many years, all for the sake of my children. You may not know this, but I’d already planned to give you a portion of the shares because you’re still my child after all.”
