Her question caught Miranda off guard. However, Miranda played dumb and chuckled. “What are you talking about? I am an ex-convict. How am I supposed to blackmail him? Your dad feels guilty for what he did, so he wants to make compensation.”
After hearing what Miranda said, Skylar burst into sarcastic chuckles. How can she say that with a straight face?
