Brayden stopped her mid-sentence. “She can keep the baby if she wants it so badly. I have more than one child anyway. Ms. Jones, you should stay out of this and let her decide on her own.”

Brayden was explaining himself out of respect for Tobias. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have wasted his time talking to an outsider. He used contraceptives every time they were intimate, so only Penelope knew the truth of her pregnancy.

After hearing his reply, Skylar snapped, “I want you to confess everything to her so that she doesn’t get hurt further! Since you can’t marry her, how is she supposed to live as a single mother?
